“Are you new here?” A girl with a long hair and tanned skin walked up to me while I was arranging the flowers on the vase.
I am working in the Carters’, a rich resident in Newport. Apparently, when Damien and I looked for work, this mansion is the only place that allowed us to work only sixteen hours a week. Damien even tried to bargain but I just agreed on the sixteen hours.
I looked at her. She’s holding some cleaning materials. I gave her a small smile as my heart started pounding in my chest. This is the first time someone who did not know about my condition is talking to me.
“Yes,” I replied.
She narrowed her eyes at me before smiling widely. “I’m Annie,” she introduced. “I have been working here for a year now with my husband.”
I swallowed. I am finally speaking to someone else!
