A Fate To Hate

Ellen scrunch up her nose in disgust as she struggles to clean the room.

”This is outrageous! ” She exclaimed angrily.

She might be a maid here but she is still human.

If she had known working here would have been this tedious she would have turned down the offer.

Ellen, a nineteen years old girl struggling to make some money for college, had asked for some help from her best friends brother. And he told her she won have to do much being a maid here and he was positive she would be paid well.

But this boss of hers seems to be after her life as he always manages to get his bedroom in an unbelievably messy state every time she wants to clean it.

Maybe she should quit.

She continues to clear the room of the items that don belong there.

Empty bottles of liquor, empty packs of cigarettes on the night table and floor.

And even a ladys undergarment?.

She stared wide eyed at the tiny piece of clothing that hung on the index finger of her left hand which she had thankfully gloved before she started.

She is not supposed to be surprised by the undergarment because she is aware of her bosss promiscuous ways but it had caught her unguarded.

She prays she won have to see any surprise items today again.

She continued to cleans the room , she had the windows opened to allow more ventilation and to rid of the pungent smell in the room.

Feeling a weird sensation under her feet as she stepped on something.

Ellen picked up a pack of unused condoms and held it with a shaky hand after reading what was written on it.

”This is too much for a single day ” she murmurs under her breath contemplating between quitting or continuing.

After a debate with herself she rushes around the room tidying it, scared another thing will pop out of thin air.

”How was work today? ” Skye asked as they waited for the food being prepared by Skyes mom to be ready.

They were in her house like they normally do since high school days, they literally grew up together eating in each others houses.

”It was not pleasant, I saw a lot of surprises, ” Ellen said with a grim expression.

”I don think something that was not pleasant should have surprises, what happened? ” Skyes curiosity peaked.

”Not all surprises are good ”

”Hey I heard a carnival will happen tonight, do you want to check it out? ”

Ellen skillfully switched the conversation.

”Where and when? ”

” Not far, we can ask your brother to drive us there ” Ellen suggested but Skye has a different plan.

”No, I will drive us there ”.

” Okay ”.

”Girls dinner is ready ”

Skyes Moms voice cut through their conversation.

”That child is going through enough on her own and the knowledge that she has no relativ
