Chapter 2
In a little house at the far side of Fortuna city, sat a young woman sighed and took the newspaper from under her front door.
"I need to find a job fast, unless I want to lose my house and starve to death.", she said, while sighing and flipping through the pages of the newspaper.
She was medium height (around 5'6), seemed really shy and plain, not plain, but simple...let say one of those girls who didn't give a damn about makeup or wearing provocative clothing to show off. She had long ebony hair, and beautiful emerald eyes, together with creamy pale skin and plush pink lips.
She went through the newspaper, and then it hit her, just what she needed...a job opportunity.
The ad read:
"Maid is required.
Woman (from 18 up), needs to cook, clean, wash, iron clothes and do the house work.
Sleeping at the house may be required.
Contact : 9990-0999, talk to PATTY."
"Gosh, thank God I just turned 18 last month! Now let me call them, I hope everything goes fine and they like me…somehow."
Even though she lacked proper experience she was willing to learn and do whatever she could to earn a living. She did work here and there but she needed something to get stable income. It would be impossible to pay all of her debt without a proper job.
Then Anne went and took the phone out of the cradle, so then she could call Patty.
She sure hoped that job had not been taken yet.

Dante groaned and asked, actually, ordered Patty to pick up the phone , since it was too early to a normal person to be calling him (since it was already 11 a.m, and cute little Dante loved to sleep a lot), so then Patty went and answered the phone not so sweetly, since she didn't like being bossed around all the time. Even though she was a teenager herself, she enjoyed sticking around to help around the house, since she was on vacation and had nothing else better to do back at home. She was sick and tired of staying in her room doing nothing, so she figured she would "help" Dante out.
"Hello, what do you want?", came the harsh words out of the girl's mouth.
"Umn, is it Patty's home?"
"Yeah, it is", again harsh words, she was so annoyed at how Dante could be sometimes. He did not show any appreciation, sheesh!
"Ahh, sorry to bother you, but I'd like to know about the maid ad on the newspaper."
FINALLY!, I hope this one looks decent, not another slut...please, thought Patty.
"Ahh, so tell me about yourself then!", said the girl now in an all to happy way.
"Well, ma'am I know how to cook decently, wash, iron, clean and even babysit if that's the case…if there is anything else you need that I do not know I am willing to learn…and in case you need me to sleep over I can. I fit into all the conditions on the ad, so I'm looking forward to visiting your house and hopefully setting everything so I could start working as soon as possible."
"That's nice to hear, so when would you like to come over here, could it be today already?"
"Sure", replied Anne a little uncomfortable with the girl's way too happy manners.
"Then what's the address ma'am?"
"Yes, how could I have forgotten this!, It's 1176 West Ave, Coberville city.
"So when do you think you'll be able to make it here?"
"I believe by 3 p.m miss, is that ok?"
"Course, see ya!", she said before pulling the phone back into its cradle.
Eagerly Anne went to her bathroom, took her clothes off, and took a quick, yet relaxing hot shower, then she went to her wardrobe and chose a plain knee-length dark skirt and a beige dress shirt, discreet but cute nonetheless, followed by flat and feminine dark shoes. She did not have a lot of money to buy fancy clothes, but what she had would have to do.
Funny thing she did not even ask for my name…thought Anne right before placing the phone back.
Even not having lots of expensive and beautiful clothing, Anne who lived alone since her parents died in a car accident, managed to buy some cute clothes since she was a woman, and loved shopping for them, naturally. Her natural beauty would have to suffice the lack of jewelry though.
She put her hair in a tall tight bun, took her purse and managed to take a bus, right on time, only hoping this job could solve her problems.
Never did she think that from now on, problems would only start to arise.
End of chapter 2 - Please it would mean a lot if you review, so please do it.
