The Devilish Maid

In the bungalow I shared with the other Assistant,I was allotted a small room(a baby's room to be correct) but with the bathroom attached.The muster bedroom was occupied by that Assistant.Of course with that arrangement I had the full used of that bathroom while he used the other rooms bathroom.Why? till today I still could not figure out why?.Stupid ain't it not so?.Boarders should not argue so they say.

What ever it was,I was not so concern about it,what bothered me most was the devilish servant he had in his employment.That wretch woman was an old Nyoya or peranakan (mixed parentage of Chinese and Malay).She looked a witch to me.Worst of all I had to share the food bill and her salary with the other Assistant.Of course it would have been a totally different story had the maid be better looking and not insane looking like that one.

Perhaps by reading the above you would classified me as bias but just read on,then you decide.That old woman was quite thin and I cannot help wondering why she looked at me with widely opened angry eyes,with red veins within seemingly red and with her shaggy white hair free flowing,she to me appeared like a ghost.When ever I returned from work she would stared straight into my eyes as if I had taken something precious from her and she wanted to devour me .

There were times that I was alone in the house and whenever she passed me she be growled at me as if I had taken something away from her.Such a ghostly witch.

That was why I was always very cautious when eating the food she cooked.Should it be prepared for both of us it was safe I think.But when the meal came in separate dish,one for her master one for me,I always bore eerie feelings about it.I was suspicious mine could have been adulterated with something bad.Take Maggie mee for example,I just closed my eyes ate only the ingredients but never drank the soup.Fortunately I am still in one piece.Anyway I stayed there for about two months or so.

One thing good was that I had to be away to my division most of the time.In any case I was these only for two months or so.That two months of horrible moments.
