Chapter 2: Lucifer
"Oh ok," I said noticeably disappointed a guy closing the door of the house I stood in front off quickly mark an X on a newspaper. "Only one more left," I sighed getting in my PT cruiser it was old and kind of beat up but hey it was only 5 years old and I was lucky my dad had even given it to me for graduation thanking every second I had it driving it across town to a mansion of the only notable family in this town.
I shivered a bit I had heard old stories about this place while job hunting in town but then again they were just old stories but then again there were just old stories about my apartment so I wouldn't put anything past them as just being fake after what I'd seen I thought, getting out my car and ringing the doorbell waiting several moments before someone answered.
"Hi I'm here to apply for the job as house keeper," I said to an elderly man who frowned.
"You'll have to take that up with the lady of the house please come in." he said closing the door behind me before walking away allowing me to look around. The flooring was either granite or looked like polished cherry wood, a chandelier hanging overhead, two staircases off to the side, and banisters framing the room from the upper levels. Unable to resist I peeked into one of the room off to the side seeing a room that just looked like a living room you know with a couch and TV anything a normal household would have.
"Ahem," someone said in a soft voice making me jump turning around quickly closing the door an elderly women looking at me her eyes like daggers, "I would prefer if you didn't wander around my estate without properly introducing yourself," she said her voice harsh.
"Oh sorry I'm Yami I'm here to apply for the job of house keeper," I said sheepishly trying not to let my Texan accent show through, feeling like an idiot wearing torn jeans and a black tank top while she was dressed so nicely in a pink shirt and jacket outfit with pearls strung delicately around her neck like something you'd expect Hilary Clinton to wear.
"Oh that delightful but still I don't know where you were raised but her is Washington we don't just enter," she said.
"B-but a man let me in here he went to go get you," I said slightly upset.
"Oh I'm very sorry then that means Chester is wandering around somewhere looking for me oh well he'll turn up eventually," she said walking off.
"Wait ma'am about the job?" I tried not to shout. "Oh right you have the job I'll give the day to get settled," she said stopping and turning back around to face me.
"Settled what do you mean?" I asked.
"Well you didn't think I'd expect you to live somewhere else."
"Um actually I kinda did," I said my Texan accent coming back out again bit it must have not been very noticeable.
"Well its either live here or no job," she said, while I actually thought about it I liked living out on my own for the first time but if I didn't get a job soon I wouldn't be living anywhere and this was the last place with an opening I thought letting out a sigh defeated.
"Ok," I finally said, "but what about my stuff?"
"You may get your 'stuff' as you so crudely put it and we shall pay to store your furnishings," said the lady as I started to fidget nervously at the idea of moving all my stuff on my own which she must of noticed.
"Here I'll send Lucifer to help you."
Lucifer? She's send the devil with me is that a threat I thought.
"Lucifer!" she called seeming to look at me making me turn to see a young boy probably my age or older his shoulders hunched up like he was trying to hide but once she had called his name again he slowly turned straightening up. "Please help get her things," she said the boy looking off to the side but nodded heading outside as I followed.
*I know it seems kind of boring right now trust me it gets pretty interesting please review and enjoy.
