SEX WITH THE VIRGIN MAID by KIARI HORSFALL

Hiding From Him

One week.

It had been exactly one week since Hera set her eyes on her boss after their fallout. She had always tried her very best to avoid him as best as she could.

In the mornings, she would do her job as soon as he leaves for work and makes sure to get dinner ready before he gets back home from work.

Her routine had been like that and she was certain that she wouldn't be changing it anytime soon. The more space she gives, the better.

"Are you finally ready to talk about it?" Mariam had asked that evening when they were both together in the kitchen prepping for dinner.

Ever since it happened, she had remained quiet and had refused to say anything to Mariam. She didn't think it was important to let the old lady know what was going on.

Plus, it wasn't a subject that she was proud of speaking about so what's the point of doing so?

"Hera" Mariam coaxed when she didn't respond to her question "What happened?"

Hera shook her head negatively "Nothing happened Ma'am. What makes you think that something happened?" She retorted.

Mariam threw the knife that she was holding on the counter "I'm not a fool Hera. I know that something happened between you two and you being silent and avoiding the question, proves it already."

Hera sighed deeply "The only reason why I'm being silent is because it's not that important. There's nothing to talk about." she said in her defense.

"Did he do something wrong?" Mariam asked straight out of the blue. "He did right?"

"It doesn't matter ma'am. You don't have to worry about anything." Hera assured her with a placating smile.

"Last night..." Mariam began, forcing Hera to stop abruptly and listen to what the woman had to say "I heard when Max came in to call you and I was awake when the both of you came back home with Bryce and I noticed after that day that the two of you barely speak to each other and you have been avoiding him as well."

She wouldn't deny the fact that she missed him a lot. These past few days had been hell. Not to mention that Martha had taken it upon herself to constantly ask about him each time she called. She wanted to know if he would still be attending the Thanksgiving service. Hera had given her a befitting reply though but she wondered how long it would take Martha to figure out
