NIGHT 3- Fear

He once look back...

Every weekend, i perform at that street... gathering the passing crowd, garnering a sum of money, enough for our daily needs and food...

Still... i was hoping that i could meet him again...My eyes wander around the crowd everytime i sing. Looking for his presence...

"I guess today's not the lucky day Carlo *sigh" I utter. Talking to my brother, as if he can understand me.

...

The night changes to day in the blink of an eye... I start my day walking down the street asking for some work...

"How old are you my dear?" An old woman ask

"I'm 17 ma'am" I said.

"Tsk tsk tsk~~ so young, and yet you already have a child?" the old woman said.

That hit me so hard, just by carrying a baby at my back, doesn't mean he's my child

"He's my brother ma'am. We are orphans, our parents died due to an accident" i said.

"Hmmm... is that so? then i'll offer you some work"

"Really?!"

"Of couse!, i pity child like you, if you're okay to be a house maid, then you'll start today"

"Yes ma'am, i'll start today"

"Oh, by the way, what's your name?"

"Claire Romano ma'am and this is Carlo my brother"

I was excited, i start to skip on my way home... pack my things and direclty went to the address written on the card given to me earlier.

...

"Woahhhh~~~~ the house is big" I utter to myself, standing behind the gate of a ginormous house.

"Who are you?" a guard suddenly walk forward.

"Uhmmm... i'm the newly hired maid?" I said, hoping i wouldn't cause any commotions.

"Ah yeah sure... you can come in" The guard replied, opening the gate.

"Thank you" I said... He's actually terrifying at first glance, but he's fine.

"Your kid is cute" He said.

I would like to say something but i realize that it's totally a waste of my saliva explaining to him.

...

I walk for a good amount of time until i reach the front door of the house.

" *phew... that was a walk... a long-*** walk" I said, looking back at my trails. When eye turn my head back, the door was already opened.

I didn't notice that...

"Welcome to the Moscov's residence!!" A maid shouted.

"Thank you, ah~~ niceto meet you, I'm Claire Romano" I said. Extending my hand, hoping she would accept it. but she just stood their completely stunn.

"The Claire Romano?" She ask

"Ah, yeah? Claire Romano" I said. completely confused.

"Why are you here my child?" She bagan asking. Holding both of my hands together.

"My parents both died at the accidents... ummm... wait, what do you know about me?" I ask her back.

"Are you kidding me? how can nobody not know who Claire Romano is? I mean except for those who didn't see your face but..."

"What do you mean?" I ask in confusion.

"You are Princess Claire Romano!" She yell.

Wooahh~ how would i know that? i started this dream halfway... I didn't even know the face of my parents... Wow~ turns out i'm a princess?!?!?!

"Then, how come you know who i am?" i ask her

"I work at your residence before i work here... well you see, it's because this household is keeping a handsome little man *giggle" She said

Ohhhhh~~~~ She really looks like a big fan of him...

"Anyways, my name's Sarah" She said.

"Nice to meet you" i said.

...

Sarah showed me around the house, it was a fieldtrip. The house is so big.

"There's only one rule here, you must not get inside the chamber of the young Prince"

"You must be careful around the house too, these house has a lot of passageways leading to one room to another"

"That's all you need to know"

Wow~~~~ that was a lot to digest in one go..

"Oh by the way, don't look at the Prince eye to eye, you must bow down"

"Then, you haven't seen his face then?" I ask.

"Of course i saw it.. but it was just a lucky glance" She said

"He looks not dreamy to me though, more like a tyrant ruler" I jokingly said.

"Shhh~~ you must not speak ill about the Prince young Miss" She said. Totally shaking, holding my arms.

...

Sarah lead me to my room.

This room is even big, even just for a house keeper like me... I began unpacking my stuffs, when...

The door suddenly opens, i was in big shock for what i saw.

"Uhmmm~ ha~ hah Oh Allen, more~ hey~ don't touch there *giggle"

"Oh~~ just let me~~~ this part is amazing ahahah"

What in the friggin' world am i seeing? My jaws were totally dropped after i saw them. I was frozen staring at them...

...

Finally! they notice...

"You! who are you?" Allen ask

"I am a new maid here sir" I replied. Lowering my head.

"My Prince~~~ let's not bother her, let's finish what we started *kiyaaa" The woman said.

"The Prince!?!?!?" I shouted.

Allen is the prince? how come? why him? Why?

"You~~ are you really that shock to see me?, lemme guess, you wanted to see me, that's why you worked here, hahaahaha such creeps!" Allen uttered. Completely irritated.

"Let's do it here ma-love, let me witnes shattering her fantasies about me" Allen added.

"Move, ya nasty wh*re~~"The girl said. Pushing me away from the bed.

"My prince... there's a child here" the woman said.

"As expected of this little wh*re, even dare to bring her child at my residence! how filthy..."Allen said.

I took the baby in my arms, holding my tears and walk out of the room.

"Stop there... i told you, you need to watch, wasn't that clear enough?" Allen said.

I had no choice. I stood there at the corner carrying Carlo in my arms, as they gave pleasure towards each other...

...

After some time, they fell asleep... I was disgusted by what my eyes had laid on... totally overwhelmed, my body drop on the floor as i started sobbing.. repeating these words to myself..

"It's alright... it's alright.. it's alright"

I didn't even notice... i fell asleep.
