Maria
I walked silently as tears filled my eyes. My face was swollen due to the amount of tears I've cried out.
I can't believe I was fired. I never did anything wrong, it was just a set up.
This was the only things that was giving me money to provide for my basic needs.
And I've been owing my landlord for 5 months. Im still surprised that he did not chase me out back then.
I walked slowly as I was drenched in sweat and water from the rain.
Oh no! He's here. I panicked as I saw the Landlord Mr Edward at the front of my door.
He was putting on an angry facial expression. I gulped hard and walked slowly, wiping my tears with my little piece of cloth.
"Welcome Mr Edwards, how are you doing?" I faked a smile and stretched forth my hands to shake his.
"Maria, no time to keep this formal" he soat angrily.
"I'm sorry Mr Edward, I was just greeting you..i didn't mean anything". I tried hard not to stutter. This man is something else. Even his appearance alone would scare you to death.
"Throw away your greetings. You know the reason why I'm here. So I've had enough of your nonsense. I've given you enough time. I need you to pay me back my money or else someone will be living here instead of you" he yelled.
"Mr Edward I'm sorry..I know I've wasted your time. Mr Edward, I got fired today. Please just give me next month and I'll pay you back your money". I pleaded. I felt the urge to she'd tears.
"Oh shut up young Lady!. You've been telling me the same thing for the past five months. I've given you enough time to get money and now you're telling me over again?.. you know you're leaving immediately" he said.
"Mr Edward please I promise you. I have no where to go please. Just give me a month and I promise you, I will pay" I said as the tears that filled up my eyes fell.
I've cried a lot today that my eye hurts. Now I'm crying over again.
"No, that promises are over. I'm going to give these house to the person that's willing to pay me" he said with a smirk on his face.
"Who is that? Where are the people or person?" I sniffled.
"And how's that your business?!!!". He roared as he came closer to me. I walked back a little.
"Now I want you to go in there, and take your things and leave this house immediately and my word is final" he yelled and suddenly grabbed his phone from his pocket.
"Hello, Andrew, Leon come here right now. I have a perfect task for you".
He said and stared at me. His eyes were glued to my soaked body. I looked at my clothes and noticed due to the rain, my clothes were already stuck on my skin, revealing my curves.
Then a car came and two hefty men came down from the car. One of them, pushed me away.
"Now that you guys are here. I want you to go in there and throw all her things out". He ordered.
"But Mr Edward, you don't have to do this. Please don't throw my things away I have no place to go please!" I yelled grabbing the arms of one of the men and he pushed me to the ground.
"If you touch me again, I swear I would cut off your fingers" the man said and walked aggressively.
My things were outside few minutes later. He grabbed the keys from me and locked the door.
"Nice one boys". He said and chuckled just like the devil he is. Something was telling me that he was sent to do this to me.
Who could that be..
I packed my things and wiped my tears, dragging myself along with the heavy bags.
"Already done boss" I heard Mr Edward said.
I'm right. Someone sent him to do this to me. Who could that be? And why is he punishing me? First of all, I was fired for no reason and now I was chased out of the house?
Now where am I staying? I was planning to do a search for another Job and now I have no house to stay.
The city was dried as tiny drops of water from the sky fell.
I have to find a place to stay.
I found an abandoned store and kept my things there. I took my blanket from my bag as spread it on the cold floor.
The place was unkept, but I have no choice. I took a cloth and packed it to form a pillow. I brought my duvet and covered myself with it.
I ignored the loud growl from stomach. I was hungry and angry.
