Hire a Maid by Zainab Ajike (top 100 novels of all time txt) 📕

Angelina’s point of view:

“Dad, mom and abbey, let’s go. We are running out of time. I yelled, of course I am eager to see our new house. I still wonder what they are still doing in the house; I am already at the living room, waiting for them to come out.

“Will you just shouting, Angelina?” abbey said, gosh this guy is so rude

“Shut up or I will kick your ass” I threatened; I know y threat is nothing to him because mom will interfere to support him.

“Angelina, don’t be too harsh on your brother” I said it, I knew she was going to support him, sometimes I just wish I was him.

They came out to the living room together looking good but I won’t lie, dad looks like a warrior ready to fight

“Dad, can you smile a little” I said, but instead he rolled his eyes, I wonder how mom is coping with him. But he is best dad in the world.

“Okay let’s go since you guys are ready”. I said

Ten minutes later, we are already in m dad’s old minivan. He bought the van when he had his biggest catch during fishing. This van is my dad’s concubine, because my dad spends most of his time with it and he always calls it his second wife so my mom decided to name it dad’s concubine.

We are almost there, and I am super excited, we are already at the estate, abbey and I started admiring the amazing views of the beautiful houses built at this estate, only influential people live here like successful business people, politicians, etc. I wonder why the owner of this estate built that cheap house among all this luxurious homes.

“We are there” I shouted, wow the house is freaking beautiful, it might be a small house but it is freaking beautiful. I alighted from the car making my way towards the gate when I was stopped by a man in black suit.

“Hey who are you? We bought this house, understood” I confronted him

“I know madam; I am the agent of this house. I will show you around and you will have to sign all the necessary documents” he said calmly. Oh silly me, he looks like a bodyguard compared to an agent.

“Oh, okay let’s go, you guys please move forward” I said.

The agent showed us around the house, well it might be a mini building compared to all the costly building around here but it is comfy and cool. We got to have our own rooms, its five bedroom apartment and each room has its own toilet perfect for me. We even have the luck to welcome a visitor without sleeping in the living room. The kitchen is way bigger than our previous kitchen and the living room is specious. We have our own privacy, unbelievable!

The house has its own company and garden surrounded by its fence. It is already painted in white colour. All we have to do is to bring our furniture’s here and then we are good to go.

“You have to sign the documents madam” the agent said placing the documents on the kitchen cabinet.

“Dad should be the one to do that” I said. He was surprised.

“What?  Angelina” he said

“Sign it please dad, I bought this house for us but specially for you, please sign it and lets go , you now I have a program to attend” he reluctantly took the pen and signed all the papers but not after reading them thoroughly. I can feel his pains and worries but am here for him.

We went out of the house. The agent locked the gate with padlocks and gave dad the keys. Expectedly, my house started roaming about the beautiful houses but stopped when it spotted one young looking man standing in front of the most beautiful house probably a castle, talking to a man who is also dressed in a suit, damn! The guy is handsome; he wore suited which makes him look corporate and he looks expensive. Well stylized hair, well statured body and what else, his face. Well, he is backing me I can see his face only his back.

“Angelina, you are digging holes at his back” abbey said which made him received a knock on his head from me

“Idiot” I said and went into the car. I can’t stop thinking about him; wish I can see his face god. My dad started the car as soon as we are all inside the car and made a u-turn, seems like he heard the sound of our car and turned his head to see our car, he looks so amazing but what I don’t like is that he looked at our car disgustingly. Fuck him. No one dares to blame us for our situation. No one saw him except me. Great!

Dave’s point of view:

“You guys have done one amazing job here but the problem now is the paint they will use for this house, you know what Michael, call the queen to ask her about the paint I have so many work to do at the office” I said its like this is a waste of time, our ship is yet to arrive and also I have a conference meeting with the investors. And daddy, he has asked me to come to his scholarship program that he is holding today. What is this dad? Way to go. 

“Okay sir, I will call her this evening” he said

“Then I will start gong, and monitor this house very well or else you will spend the rest of your life in prison” I threatened him. He nodded looking scared great.

Just In, the sound of a car roared in the air, I turned back to looked at the direction of the car. It’s mini old van. What the fuck in my estate? I looked at it disgustingly yes its digesting to see

“What the fuck, what is this van doing in my estate? No tell me. This is a disgrace to me and my estate” I asked Michael, yelling. This is a total disgrace to me.

“It belongs to the owner of the house we just sold” rally that’s great.

“You should have cheeked their background statue before selling it off to them, this is ridiculous” I said angrily
