Do Your Tasks!

I finally have the energy to do all the work since I've already eaten yesterday, slept for almost eight hours and took a bath. Now it's time to do the household chores like a real momma!

I tied my long brown hair up, wore an apron, some gloves, rain boots and folded the end of my jeans. I walked like James Bond as I make the entrance into this messy house holding a bucket full of water, a mop and other cleaning materials.

Then an egg threw at me that made my epic entrance ruined. It's the twins again and Cecilio and others might have something to do with this of course. Why do they hate me so much?

"Nice outfit,"Cecilio teased as he walked passed at me. He has a bag hanging on his shoulders and so as the others. I guess it's time for them to go to school.

"Don't forget to wash our clothes!" Terine reminded me.

"And clean my bed sheets!" Yvonne shouted.

"And clean Bea's den! It's so gross,"Natalia added.

"Bon's too!" Cecilio said.

"And Zan and the twins,"Terine says.

Yeah I get it. I'll have to clean the whole house and do some other stuff like laundry.

"And if you don't mind, can fix the windows too?" Aluminus said then I gave him a glare as he was about to get out the house.

"Wait! Isn't that—"

"Bye!"

"...Your job,"I finished the sentence after they shut the door behind me. And now I'm all alone in this house. Or maybe, this is the time for me to get out of here?

Wait. I don't know who I am and I don't know where that mansion is located. I'm not even familiar with this town either so there's a bigger chance for me to get lost. And I'm not even sure if I am the person that Aluminus claims to be. He was supposed to help me because he's my husband but he and the kids just treated me like I'm their maid!

My thoughts were interrupted as Doug sat on the floor in front of me, putting down his bowl. Even this dog has the same treatment as them.

But I have to work hard so that we can have a better home. Maybe I'm just tired because I just came from the hospital yesterday. But getting back my memories is one of my priorities. Maybe if I do what they're asking me to do, that will trigger most of my memories back on my head.

I gave the the damn dog his food then I started cleaning the bathroom where I took a shower after I have been threw some poop on my shirt by the twins. Then I cleaned and organized the kitchen and the dining area. Then the living room. I'm not sure what to do with the ruined couch but I'll just get back to that later on. I still have like 10 rooms and 2 bathrooms to clean.

The first room that I opened is Zan's room. The youngest kid's room is a bit messy and dim for a 3 year old. So I fixed everything like her bed then put her dirty clothes in the washing machine. While waiting for her clothes, I re-decorate her room by painting it with lavender color, since that's my favorite color. Luckily that I found it at the basement along with some sheets that I can cover with the couches.

I did the same thing with the other kids' room. I don't know which are the worst, Bon's, The Twins or Bea's. But surprisingly, I find Bea's room a bit neat than the others. The only problem is her clothes. There's no dust around her area but the light bulb in her room is broken. So I have to replace it with a new one. With the help of a manual of course. But I don't find any rodents around her room despite that she's eating here all the time. Good for her then.

Bon's room is the worst. Clothes are everywhere and there are rodents and ants all over the place because of the spoiled junk foods that are hiding in every corners of the things around. The plugs are not even removed and his video game is still playing. God. This kid needs to give some sermon about saving energy and avoiding of burning this house down.

The twins' room is also messy. But Bon's room is the worst.

Natalia's room is full of boyband posters. And I'm not sure if there are things that I need to clean around here except her laundry. I even found her diary that she's having sex with her boyfriend named Gary. I wonder if Aluminus knows about this? Then I read something that he doesn't know so that's my answer.

While Cecilio is gay because I found pictures of him and maybe his boyfriend. I assumed that he's his boyfriend since their faces are sticking together in the photo.

I found so many secrets from these kids just by cleaning their rooms. Well, they asked for it. And I finally have something to get back at them so that they can start respecting me as their Mother. Insert evil smile.

While Yvonne's room is the cleanest. Not surprising.

After cleaning all the rooms, I cleaned the hallways for every story of this house. I even cleaned my room so that I can have some good sleep later tonight without the dog. I even managed in putting a lock on my door so that the twins won't have a chance of pranking me again with poop and other gross things.

I took care all of the laundry which are hundreds of them. Damn. I wonder how much will I get paid for doing all of this?

After taking care of the laundry, I remembered that I forgot going back to clean Aluminus' room too. But his room is locked so I couldn't get in. And I wonder if he has money inside that's why it's locked?

I tried pick locking the door using different stuffs but nothing worked.

When I'm finally done, with the house, I took out the bags of garbages and realized that I still have to clean the outside of the house too.

So threw the other garbage lying around here, puts away the toys, trimmed the grass, picked up Doug's poops and water the grass around. Some grandma greeted me which is our neighbor while I'm watering the grass.

"Julia?"she asked. I guess she sees me as someone that she loves dearly. Given that she's very old. She may be having delusions.

"Julia? Is that you?"she asked again.

"Oh. I'm not Julia,"I said with an awkward smile.

"Julia?"she asked again.

Yep. I was right. She's having delusions.

After watering the grass and ignoring the grandma, I went inside the house and cooked some food for the family to eat.

The Beaus finally went home and was mesmerized when they saw their disastrous house turned into a different and fresh house.

"Dinner's ready!" I said confidently. They take their seats and started eating. Aluminus and the other kids can't help but stare at me wondering how I did all of these on a day.

"It's easy. I just threw the gross stuff and clean the whole house,"I said, answering their questions on their heads.

"Threw the gross stuff?" Natalia asked,"You mean you've been into our rooms?!"

"Yeah. Why? Are you hiding something?" I said while giving her a glare. Yes bitch. I'm blackmailing you so you guys can start respecting me!

Natalia's face turned red while Aluminus remained confused of what I am saying right now.

"And Bon, you might have to turn off your electronics in your room plus unplugging it or you'll burn this whole house down,"I told Bon who just puts down his video game equipment down on his lap.

"Wait. You found his TV and playstation on?" Aluminus asked me.

"Yep,"I said then I glance over to Natalia and Cecilio,"And found out other things."

Natalia and Cecilio avoided looking me in the eyes and just pretended to not care with the whole situation while eating on their food.

"The Twins' room should be remained clean too,"I added while glancing over to the twins,"And confiscated some things that you're always going to use in your pranks."

The twins whispered to each other. From the looks of them, looks like they're worried to be defeated by me.

"And where did you get the couch's sheets?"Aluminus asked.

"From the basement,"I said.

Aluminus nodded. I think he's still can't believe that I did all of these.

After the Dinner, I washed the dishes even if my body is aching already because of all the work that I did in this house. But I have to look strong for them or else they're going to treat me badly again. Then I heard footsteps coming to me. When I turned around, I found Aluminus standing there with his arms crossed across his chest. Giving me a glare that says he's angry at something.

"You didn't fix the windows like I told you,"he said.

I sighed. I totally forgotten about that honestly,"I forgot about that, geez. I'll fix that tomorrow."

Then Aluminus walked away leaving me there alone. I thought he's going to insist for me to do that right now. But maybe he have seen me that I'm tired for the whole day already.

The best part of the day is sleeping in my own just-cleaned room! I removed the old boxes down to the basement and did some redecorating in this room. Good thing there's a frame for this bed that I still haven't put it all together since I'm already tired. I'll do this instead tomorrow. I lie down on my mattress and stare at the small round window where the moonlight's rays reflecting and formed a spotlight on the wooden floor.

It feels satisfying to clean this messy house and earning some respect from these people that I live with. But to my disappointment, no memories flashed back at me. I guess I have to wait for a little longer for it to come back.

The next morning, I woke up and went down so I can have some bathroom time and fix the windows before Aluminus wakes up. It's a bit early though so atleast they wake up seeing their big window fixed. But when I got to the 2nd floor, I saw that the windows are fixed.

Then I heard a door opening from behind me. As I turned around, it's Aluminus, rubbing his eyes while yawning.

"Who fixed the windows?" I asked. Maybe the kids did it? Because they felt threatened by the secrets that I found yesterday.

"Me,"Aluminus said as he closed the door and walked towards me. He's still on his sleeping pajamas with sleeping robe. He looked very tired because of that window.

"Why? I thought I was gonna do that—"

"You've already done enough, Silvanna,"he interrupted me with a cold tone of voice,"Thank you."

I've already done enough? So does this mean that they'll respect me now?

Our moment was ruined when someone grabbed my hand. When I turned around, it's Zan and she's pulling me to go somewhere.

"Wait. Where are we going?" I asked but Zan just kept pulling me away from Aluminus.

"I think she wants you to give her something. Probably milk,"Aluminus said. I just followed Zan downstairs. Aluminus is right. She wants to have some milk. She may have not pointed it with her finger but she grabbed my hand and put it on the milk's container.

Now the problem is where I will make the milk? Since I can't find any bottles anywhere, I just made the milk in a cup.

"Here you go. You must be so hungry,"I said sweetly to her. But as I gave her the cup, she threw it away. Spilling the milk on the floor.

"What the hell..."I exclaimed,"What did you do that for?! I thought you wanted milk?!"

But Zan whined and pulled my hand to put on the milk's container again.

"Oh come on. I already made the milk for you! Now you're telling me you still want it?"I said with frustration. Then Zan cried in a very loud way.

"Oh no. I'm sorry! Please don't cry!" I shushed her but she just kept on crying. I heard Doug barking from the distance then he appeared here in the kitchen and he has a bottle on his mouth.

"Hey. Where did you find that?"I asked Doug as I grabbed the bottle from his salivating mouth. Of course the dog won't answer me either. So I just stood up and washed the bottle as quickly as possible because Zan is still crying and starts lying down on the floor. I guess she's having tantrums.

After I'm done preparing the milk, I gave it to her and she kept quiet. She walked away from the kitchen while Doug just stares at me. I think he also wants something.

"Let me guess, you want me to feed you too?" I asked him. He just kept on staring at me.

I opened the pantry and found Doug's dog food. I put the remaining pieces on his bowl and turns out that he has no food for Lunch and Dinner. When I was looking for a stock for his food, I found out that the Beus is running out of food stocks.

I guess I have to do some grocery shopping today.
