Episode 3 . . .

EMILY POV

Nanny Maria and I were busy in the Kitchen making sure everything is in place. Nanny Maria's phone rang. "Hello ma'am...... Yes ma'am" She said and hung up then turned to me. "There just arrived, and I want you Emily to go help the driver take the luggages to the rooms" "But nanny Maria, there's a lot of work to be done and...." "Don't worry Emily, I'll take care of the rest" She said and I nodded before leaving. Just as I walked out, I saw that witch lady pushing someone down. I guess he's the driver because of his outfit. With my legs in control, I find myself walking towards the driver. "Are you okay?" I asked as I squart beside him. He looked at me and nod. "C'mon" I said as I helped him stand up before turning to face the witch. One thing with me is that, I don't see evil and let it pass. That is the more reason I haven't been given a permanent job until now. "Earlier ma'am I spoke to you with due respect and I take that back. We might be poor but at least we've lives. He's a driver but he's not as useless as you proclaim". "You snail... How dare you talk to me in that manner?" She snarled and raised her hands to hit me but I held it Midway. "I might be a maid, but I'm not someone you can molest" I said and let go of her hand. "That's enough Susan, let it go" A man said. "but baby!!" She said in a sexy disgusting tone. so Susan's her name..... what a perfect name for a perfect witch. Slowly, I turned to Mr and Mrs Kenwood. "Ma'am...... Sir, I'm really sorry if I spoke rudely to your son's girlfriend. I don't mind if you fire me because of this ......." "of course you should be fired" Susan said and I glared at her. "Let go of it Susan! and no one is getting fired" Mr Kenwood said. "Emily!" Mrs Kenwood called. "ma'am" "Take the bags upstairs. Darry! go with Emily and you'll stay in the guest room" She said to the Driver and I as we took the bags and head inside.

DARRY POV

Seriously, was that really the fiance Dad found for me?. let's just say I'll be digging my own grave if I get married to her. Her first impression marked Zero. "Thank you Emily, for defending me" I said as we made the last arrangements. "Welcome!" she simply said "You're Darry, Right?" she said and i nod. "wow... Darry rhymes with Harry" She said and we both laughed. "True!" I said and she suddenly started sniffing around me like a dog. "Hey! what... what are you doing?" I asked concious of her every move. I mean, what if she's a dog and she bites me. oh! heavens, what have I gotten myself into. "I smell money... Riches and... and" "and what?" I asked She suddenly break into a smile. "Just kidding!" she said with a smile on her face. "But seriously, the aura around you is pleasant. Your face is red, I guess it's due to the slap. I'll get you treated and maybe introduce you to Nanny Maria" She said and dragged me along.

"That's one soft skin you've got" She said as she placed an ice pack on my cheek. This is the first time someone has slapped me and coming from my supposed fiance? "What's going on here?" An elderly lady said making Emily flinch. Guess she was too engrossed in treating my cheek. "Nanny Maria! I didn't see you..... Allow me to make the introductions. Nanny Maria, this is Darry and he's sir Harry's driver. Darry, This is my favorite Nanny Maria". "Good day nanny Maria" I greeted. "Good day to you too Kiddo. And Emily I didn't know that I'm your favorite" "oh! Nanny, I've a granny, same age as you. I don't want to miss her too much or else I'll die of hypertension. So to avoid that, I'll just see you as my Mansion granny". "Mansion granny?" Nanny Maria asked. "Yes Mansion granny and I'm gonna hug you tightly and rest my head on your chest, so you could sing a lullaby for me until I fall asleep." she said and hugged Nanny Maria tightly. "get away from me, silly girl" Nanny Maria said and hit Emily on the head. "ouch! Nanny Maria, don't be like my granny, I've been suffering from a head pain for so long" she winced. "oh! then I guess your granny and I are the same" All this while, I sat down watching and laughing at the drama being displayed. Emily suddenly gasped and held Nanny Maria.

"Nanny Maria!" "sweet baby Jesus! You gave me a heart attack, crazy girl" "sorry.... sorry.. But do you know that there's a witch in the Mansion" Emily said. "A witch?" Nanny Maria asked. "yes! The lady with Sir Harry..... She's a witch. it's best you avoid her because she's rude, arrogant..... and most of all, Her fake lashes that made her look like Jezebel, her long nails which looks like that of Maleficent..... please nanny Maria, avoid her, I love you so much and I can't bear anyone hurting you" Emily said and put her hands on Nanny Mara's shoulders.

"Really?" "Yes, see what she did to this poor little driver" Emily said and showed her my cheek. "how about I give a tight slap on your cheek for speaking Ill of the Master's girlfriend uhn? Nanny Maria said to Emily. "Nanny Maria, it was just an harmless advice. I love my my cheek so much to let it get hurt" Emily said making a sad face. "Now keep quiet and let me work" Nanny Maria said and Emily nodded drawing an invisible zip on her lips. She turned and saw me laughing real hard. "Hey! what's making you laugh?" She asked. " You're the cause of my laughter" I said still laughing. "So you mean to tell me that my act looked crazy?" She asked and I nodded. "Indeed, you're one crazy girl" "really, let me show you what crazy is" She said and started coming towards me. Just like lightening, I ran out of the Kitchen. Only God know what she's gonna do.
