After their usual daily chores, Aria sighted Madam Flora, and thought to tell her about what happened at the party. She wanted to walk up to her, but Madam Flora was called by their mistress.
Aria still felt uneasy by what had happened the other day. Cold breeze blew up against her, with goosebumps all over her, as she thought of the sexual assault she experienced.
While she is still lost in her thoughts, Franklin walked past her, and bumped into her, intentionally. "I need you to do some chores in my room, snap out of it and follow me", he said, in a commanding tone.
Aria followed him, he led her into his room, and shut the door. "Wh...what do you need me to do sir?", she asked in a solemn tone.
"Wash my bathroom and organize my closet", he answered.
"Okay sir", she responded, as she walked up to his closet, to begin arranging it.
Franklin walked behind her, staring at her lustfully. "Clean it well", he said, as he placed his hands on her waist.
"Sir, this is not appropriate", she said to him, trying to remove his hands from her waist.
"Do you think you can tell me what is appropriate or not? Remember, you are a maid in this house, i basically own you, and can do whatever with you", he said, casually cupping her boobs.
"But sir...", she muttered, before he covered her mouth with his hand.
"Don't even think of reporting to my dad, he won't take your words over mine", he said, with a devilish laughter. "Let me have my way and there would be no problem, or...", he was interrupted by a knock on his door. "Who's there??", he asked.
"Frank dear, are you in there", his mum asked.
"Oh shit", he mumbled. "Yes mum, I'll be out in a minute or two", he responded. "As long as you are still under my roof, I'll have my way", he said before letting go of her.
Franklin walked out of his room, turned back and gave Aria a stern look, which sent chills down her spine. She hurriedly cleaned his room and left there.
She was anxious to see Madam Flora, she is the only one she can confide in.
Moments later, she finally got time to tell Madam Flora what had happened.
"Ma'am, i...i...i have some things to tell you", she said, feeling nervous.
"Yeah? Go on", Madam Flora responded.
...Aria explained all to her, almost shedding tears.
"You are a very pretty girl, but being sexually assaulted by adults is so wrong. It's just a matter of time, I'm sure you'll soon get out of here. We can't report them, Sir Otto won't believe us over his son and his friend. I'm sorry, my love. It's quite terrible that you're experiencing this at such age. It'll all soon be over, just a matter of time", she said, extending her hands for a hug.
"Thank you ma'am", Aria responded, as she hugged her.
"You can call me auntie", she answered.
Aria smiled a bit, with tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Don't cry, dear", she said to Aria
