He's goodlooking

It's a frenzied morning. I laid on a floor mat in quite a tiny room in my late dad's mansion.

The glass of the tiny windows was quite broken and the whirling wind blew in caressing my body and I shivered curving like a fetus in its mother's womb. My teeth clanged and I was hearing mice chirping noisily and their tiny feet were running around.

The room sniffed of pig stye because there have been some dumpings by the rats on the floor and my cruel aunt, Paloma forbade me from tidying up the room except the other rooms in the house most especially her king-sized-bedroom.

I was only in a dress without a blanket or a mattress. I felt very bad cause in my aunt's room and in other rooms, there are several blankets but she won't let me have any. Anyways, I was used to sleeping without a blanket and mosquitoes swarming on my skin each night.

I heard the door to my room opening and even though I wanted to turn to see who it was, I was too weak and lazy to.

I heard footsteps stepping in and it sounded in my ears like they were a lady's boot. I listened to the footsteps approaching my bed and it stopped.

I wondered who it was and I felt a frigid pool of water gushing on me I shook and I sat up quickly. I sighed trembling feeling my body freezing.

"Now you're awake."

The voice sounded like my aunt Griselda's I was not quite shocked.

She glanced at her Rolex wristwatch furrowed her eyebrows and shouted, "it is 8:15 am there are many chores to do in this house and you are sleeping like a fool! Do I need to give you an alarm clock to tell you when to wake up!"

I felt quite embarrassed, "I'm sorry."

"Sorry? I do not blame you, Emily. I was the idiot who gave you a place to stay that's why you do what you feel like."

"It won't happen again. Don't kick me out, please. I will do whatever you want." I said with a pleading voice.

"Well then what are you still waiting for? Go and start working!" Griselda screamed and I jumped to my feet and scampered out of the room.

"Yuck!" Griselda grimaced covering her nose feeling irritated by the profound odor in my room and she fled.

I felt very grateful to Griselda because I was told she picked me up from the street when I was knocked off and abandoned by a reckless driver. She kindly brought me to a hospital and paid for my hospital bills and offered to accommodate me in her mansion.

My name is Emily Gregory and I lost my memories a year ago. I felt quite bad that I cannot remember any memory of who I was nor have even a flash of any past event in my mind.

Who am I? Who's my family? Did I have a home before Griselda found me? Am I a criminal or a good person? I always pondered that in my mind but Felicia the house cook always tell me that soon I will regain my memory.

She was the kindest person who stayed in that mansion. She supports me when I am so down. She is tubby and has a few wrinkles on her face.

After I fled from my room, I headed towards the storeroom and I picked up a mopstick. I was walking through the stairs to head to the kitchen and I spotted from the entrances a tall light-skinned guy.

He was wearing a dark blue designer's suit, a pair of dashing black shoes, and a flashy wristwatch. I stood frozen staring at him grinning from ear to ear and I was almost drooling.

His cheeks looked super soft and spotless, his hair was jet-black and it flowed to his neck. I noticed his lips, they looked thin and red.

He entered the living room and he brandished the helm of his jacket and he peered the room. He noticed the hallway which formed a main means of egress from the room to the other rooms.

His brother, Kyle was heading to the entrances from the parking lot. He and his brother were invited by Griselda for an official meeting.

I dropped the mopstick and ran towards Kyle's brother.

"Hi, I am Leo Starkly and I want to..." Before he could finish talking, I interrupted him with a hug. I couldn't help but hug him. Kyle stepped into the room and he spotted us.

Leo shoved me off him and I nearly slipped to the floor.

"Who the heck are you?" He barked, "what do a maid like you think you are to hug me?"

I felt alarmed and tears were welling my eyes. The stench of my dress streaked to his nostrils and he covered his nose.

He advanced to me pointing his finger at my face, "don't you ever hug me."

The tears uncontrollably dropped on my cheeks. I noticed Griselda walking towards the living room and I panicked and Kyle glanced at me fleeing towards the kitchen.

"Dumb maid." Leo muttered.

Kyle walked towards him and he paused, "bro that was rude."

"What's rude was her hugging me? Can you imagine how much this jacket cost me? Almost 6, 000, 000$ and it will just get stained? Did you see her dress? It's worse than a rag." Leo argued.
