Chương 24: Going out
"What?? you want to follow her too?" asked Alfred as he turned to look at Mason who was just standing there, he wondered why this boy always followed those two everywhere.
"No Alfred" said Mason as he shook his head, even if he wanted to go along with them, Amalia would not like it, so he knew it was best if he stayed away from Amalia, he would talk to Lexi later, preferably when she calmed down.
"Then get back to work" said Alfred
"Ahh yes Alfred" said Mason as he snapped out of his thoughts.
"Oh yes, Alfred, before I forget, the items will be delivered by 1pm today" said Mason, he had received a call from the company earlier, and he was on his way here to look for Alfred, but that was until he saw Lexi crying like someone had died.
"That is good, when they arrive inform me, so that we can set up the Madam's office" said Alfred.
"Alright Alfred" said Mason.
"But don't you want the others to set the office, they can do it well" said Mason.
"No I will be there to supervise" said Alfred.
"Alright then Alfred" said Mason.
"Amalia should return soon, she has to get started on Lunch" said Alfred.
"Oh but didn't Amalia cook yesterday, why is she cooking again today?" asked Mason as it made no sense to him, the maids usually rotated the cooking amongst themselves in order to lessen the load.
"She asked to cook again today, I do not know why, but that was what she asked for" said Alfred.
"Oh I see" said Mason.
"So she better return and leave Lexi, she is suffering for her bad attitude" said Alfred, Mason could not say that was not the truth, because it actually was, and he could tell that Alfred did not care about what happened to Lexi at all.
So before Alfred could even think of transferring his aggression on him, Mason had already started leaving.
"Well Alfred, I better be going now, I will see you later" said Mason as he excused himself.
"Well alright then" said Alfred as he was left alone in the kitchen.
...
Later that Day.
"Goodnight my baby" said Natasha as she tucked Joy in to sleep.
"Have sweet dreams" she said as she kissed Joy on her cheek.
"You too Mommy" said Joy as she kissed her mother on the cheek too.
"Thank you my baby" said Natasha as she laughed.
"You are welcome Mommy" said Joy as she laughed.
"Now be a good girl, close your eyes and go to sleep" said Natasha and Joy did as she was told.
Natasha bent down there next to Joy's bed, waiting for Joy to fall asleep, and she did, Joy fell asleep holding her hand, so Natasha carefully peeled off Joy's fingers from her hand, when she succeeded in doing that, she stood up and quickly made her way out of the room, but she did not forget to switch off the lights first.
"Goodnight my baby" said Natasha once again as she closed the door behind her.
...
The next day.
Today was Saturday, most of the staff were released to start work by 10 o clock, while those who had morning duty had woken up early to come and carry out their duties.
Natasha woke up to the sun shining brightly into her room from her window, she had pulled the curtains to the side the night before.
Natasha took a shower, she wore dark blue skinny jeans with a white top, she combed her hair and put it up into a ponytail.
Natasha walked out of her room, she went right across the hall over to Joy's room, she opened Joy's door and walked in.
Joy was still sleeping soundly.
"Good Morning my sleepy head" whispered Natasha as she smiled and gave Joy a kiss on the cheek.
She did not want to disturb her baby's precious sleep, so she just left after giving her a kiss.
Natasha went downstairs, she made her way to the kitchen, where everyone was busy working, so it came as a surprise to them, when they saw the Madam who usually never went into the kitchen coming in her out of the blue.
It shocked them so much, that is was enough to make everyone stop whatever it is that they were doing and they looked straight at Natasha.
"Madam, what brings you here this morning??" asked Alfred as he turned to look what made everyone go so quiet and he caught sight of Natasha.
"Good Morning Alfred" said Natasha
"Good Morning Madam" said Alfred
"Oh Alfred, I needed to ask you to do something for me" said Natasha as she looked at Alfred, and she looked at back at everyone else who were staring at her like she was a ghost.
"Oh alright then, what is it?" asked Alfred
"I just wanted to tell you that I am not eating breakfast today, so don't dish any food for me" said Natasha.
"Oh that's alright Madam" said Alfred.
"Do you all have no manners can you greet the Madam" said Alfred as he turned to look at all the servants who were acting like they just all suddenly became mute.
"Good Morning Madam" they all said as quickly as possible.
You did not have to tell them twice to be polite, well not after what they heard happened to Lexi yesterday, they all wanted to keep their jobs, they were just so shocked of the Madam's sudden appearance that they could do nothing but stand still.
"Good Morning" said Natasha as she looked like she did not seem to mind them at all.
"Madam are you going out?" asked Alfred as he noticed that this was not something that Natasha should usually wear inside.
"Yes Alfred, I am going out" said Natasha.
"Please tell Joy that I will be back soon when she wakes up" said Natasha.
"Consider it done Madam" said Alfred.
"Thank you Alfred" said Natasha as she smiled.
"Oh Alfred, can you please lend me some cash, I don't have any money on me, I will pay you back later" said Natasha as she remembered that she needed money for a taxi.
"Of course Madam, It is no trouble" said Alfred as he happened to have money on him today and he gave it to Natasha.
"Thank you Alfred" said Natasha as she smiled.
"You are welcome Madam" said Alfred as he smiled.
"Ahh Madam, are you taking one of the cars out?" asked Alfred as Natasha was about to go on her way.
"No Alfred" replied Natasha, she knew that she was not welcome to use one of the cars, she did not want another Lexi drama with one of the drivers and besides, she and Alfred both knew why that was so, she was sure that her so called husband would end up fighting with her.
"I see Madam" said Alfred as she did not have to tell him why she said that, it was best that some things were left unsaid.
"Well I hope you enjoy your day Madam" said Alfred.
"Thank you Alfred, and I wish the same for you" said Natasha as she smiled and walked away.
