New friend

Misha's POV

*sound of birds chirping*

"Good morning miss, please wake up, your bath is ready" the maid said while her hand was on my shoulder gently trying to wake me up.

I slowly opened my eyes and saw a fine looking lady in front of me. She's cute with her black hair tied in a bun and cute doll eyes looking right at me. I sat up rubbed my eyes and looked at her again.

I smiled and responded, "Good morning as well, uhmmm". I searched for her name on her name tag.

"Lara??" I asked hoping I was right.

I don't understand why she immediately looked down, as if she's hiding something.

"Y-yes miss, My name is Lara and I will be assisting you starting today. I apologize for I have failed to introduce myself" she answered looking at me straight in the eyes now, but still kinda shy. It seems like she is blushing. Cute.

"Ehem, uhhh. Yes, well I am..." I was about to say my name but she cut me off.

"I already know your name miss" she said and giggled a bit.

"Ahh, yes. Of course you do" I responded and mentally smacked my face from the embarrassment. Of course she would know my name, it is part of her job remember? Stupid me.

I stood up and went inside the bathroom. It has a full body shower separated by a transparent curved glass at the corner of the room. I went to the sink area to check myself in the mirror.

"God! I look like a mess this morning" I pulled few strands of my hair and realized I just looked silly then ignored it. I turned around and checked the magnificent mixed modern and traditional style of the bathroom. It has a bathtub on the other side with a big glass window and a curtain propped up that shows the mountain view outside.

The tub was already prepared with scented candles on the other side next to the window and a bubble bath bomb was dropped by the maid while I undressed.

I was halfway in removing my pajama pants when I realized that the maid is still inside the bathroom blushing like a tomato when she saw me in my bra and exposed panties with my bottom directly facing her. I immediately straightened up pulling along my pajama pants and covered my breasts as much as I can.

"Uhmmm. I'll just call you when I need something" I told her lowering my head from another embarrassing situation.

"Yes miss, I will be waiting outside", she said and dashed to the door to my bedroom.

"Phew!" I released the breath that I was holding.

"God! I feel so stupid today" I shook my head and proceeded with undressing. I went near the tub and tried to check the water's temperature with my big toe. It was comfortably warm so I submerged my whole leg and slowly sat down in the tub. I stretched my legs and rested my arms on the lower sides of the bath tub. I also slowly put my head on the small waterproof pillow and closed my eyes. I took in the relaxing eucalyptus smell produced by the scented candles and exhaled slowly.

'This is the life. I could stay in the bath for hours like this but I know better so I won't take long' I told myself.

After an hour in the bath, I dried myself with the white towel that I took from the shelves full of toiletries and covered myself with a bath robe. I brushed my pearly white teeth and blow dried my hair. As I was going out from the bathroom, I saw the maid walking through the walk-in closet and told me to come. I followed suit and noticed that only a half of the closet was filled with my clothes so I still have plenty of space to fill. I was clapping my hands in excitement and went to where Lara was.

"Miss, what would you like to wear today?" Lara asked.

"Uhmmm, will you please prepare a set of jogging clothes and trainers for me?" I told her and she appeared to be confused.

"I will go to the nearest park that's why" I added.

"Ahh, alright. Please wait in the bedroom while I get your clothes" Lara instructed.

"Thank you!" I told her. I am not sure if she will actually get the right ones but I'll check her sense of fashion. I went back to the bedroom and sat on the seat of the dresser chest to brush my hair and style it in a high ponytail.

It took only a few minutes for Lara to go out of the walk in closet with my clothes for the jog. She handed me my undies, a white Tommy Hilfiger croptop hoodie, a pair of Nike high rise leggings, and a pair of white running Gucci shoes.

"Wow, just my style" I complimented her.

"Yes, I studied your pictures provided to me so I can pick the right outfit for you. It was quite difficult though because you had different styles every year" she explained.

I just nodded and told her to go out of the room for a while so I can get dressed. I pity her for being a victim of my role plays. I don't even know what type of person I will be this year. I am afraid that I might keep the facade forever. We might stay here for good so I should think about this carefully.

I am actually a bookworm, I love books so much that I wanted to have a part of my future home to be a library. I finished changing and checked myself out in front of the full body sized mirror.

"Hmmmm. Not bad. These clothes actually look good on me." I said and beamed to myself. I walked out of my room and saw that Lara was standing there waiting for me.

"Lara, you don't have to follow me everytime. If you may, can I just call you if I need help? I am not used to this kind of treatment" I told her honestly. She smiled and nodded.

"If that is what you want miss, I'll just give you my phone number so you can call me anytime you need anything" she suggested.

"Sure. That would be great." I said and took her number.
