Raura [ON HOLD]

After two hours of gruesome scrubbing, I finally finished with the eighteen bathrooms in the house and headed towards the Employee Hall. Yeah you read right. Eighteen fucking bathrooms. The Lynches are the richest family in California. My sister and I just started working for them three months ago, when their kids left for their tour. Apparently they're in a band. I bet they aren't good though, their parents must've bought their whole tour. I can't judge, I've never met them, let alone heard them play. They're expected to be back next week though. If they're anything like their mother, I don't wanna know anything about those snobs.

Anyways, back to the employee hall. It's the longest hall in the mansion. It's ten rooms and three bathrooms long. Sure each room is freakishly small, and is shared by two people, but at least we all get a roof over our heads. I share a room with my sister, Vanessa. We are orphans. We got these jobs thanks to our friend Andrew. He is a third generation butler for the Lynches and is highly trusted. He's also kinda cute :b

My sister Vanessa just turned 23 and I'll be turning nineteen next month. I'm not that excited about my birthday though, I'll probably get a pizza of my choice, like I did last year. I love pizza so much but it's just... I want more. I know it's selfish to ask for more but I just want something magical to happen to me you know? Life is just not that generous.

I made my way to my room, it's the seventh room in the hall and it's right next to the second bathroom. I opened the door to find my sister there. Her black hair framed her face beautifully and her brown eyes looked at me with care. "How was your day Laur?" She asked.

"Usual. And you?" I said climbing into my bed with and putting a pillow on my face.

"Usual." She said sighing.

I sat up and looked at her. "What's wrong Ness.."

"Nothing." She said, a little too quickly.

"Spill." I demanded.

"It's just.." She started, playing with her nails. "I'm sorry."

"What for?" I asked confused.

"I'm the one that insisted on working here. And I know you won't admit it but Mrs. Lynch outright mistreats you. She makes a fool out of you and takes away your dignity. I know she's tough on everyone, but for some reason, she is a lot tougher on you. I just don't want.."

"Ness.." I interrupted her. I got up and hugged her. "Don't be sorry. In fact I should be thanking you. This job has saved us. We were rock bottom before and you saved us. Now we have food to eat and a place to stay. That's all I can hope for. As for Mrs. Lynch.. well she's not that hard on me."

"Laur.. Thanks. You're an amazing person." Her muffled voice came out, while still hugging me.

"Not as amazing as you." I said, pulling away from the hug and getting some clothes for a shower. "I'll be in the shower."

"Okay." I heard Ness say. Just before I shut the door behind me.
