You wake up at 6am today. After leaving the bathroom last night, you ate and had a hard time going to sleep. I mean, you're not in your house, but you think you'd deserve some privicy, right..? Maybe you're overreacting, what if the door just opens by itself? Yeah, you should probably ask someone if the door is just messed up right? Checking your phone you see your mom sent you good morning, so you send one back too. "Morning mum, how is the process going?" You wait but get no response, she is probably busy. So you have no choice but to browse the web until your cousins call you for breakfast, how terrible. Time flies and someone is knocking on your door, you stand up and get to the door. This time it's not your cousins, but your aunt. "Hey auntie, is it time for breakfast yet?" "Yes it is, but I have somethings I wanna tell you, good news actually!" "Oh, okay, what is it?" "May I come in? I'd rather talk about this inside." "Sure." You let your aunt enter the room and close the door. "Well, I told most neighbors about your offer." "Really, and someone wants my services?" "Yeah, lots of folks, Doreen also helped saying great things about you. Do you remember Wendy, the chow-chow who lives at our right?" "Uh-hum, she sounded like a nice person." "Well, she wants your services to clean the house while she takes Judo to the mall, but there's a small detail, so you might have to talk to her in case it's beyond your... skillset." "And that would be?" "Doing the laundry." "What is the problem with that?" "You see, they are both girls, so I thought you may get unconfortable while handing certain 'pieces' of clothing." "Oh... I see... I think I can manage thou..? Can you help me with setting the laundry machine?" "Sure, she actually wrote me a guide, she is very attentive with looks. I will write it down how she likes to do her laundry and give it to you later, okay?" "Okay, thanks auntie!" "You're welcome, Wendy will pass by to give you the keys when she leaves." Your aunt leaves the room, and you swear you saw her licking her lips, maybe it's because the breakfast is good. You should get going too, if you're gonna clean Wendy's house, you will need energy! You enter the kitchen and see that the table is all set and your uncle is pointing for you to sit next to him. "Morning everyone." You greet them and they greet you back. "Morning Sam, ready for your second day of work?" You uncle asks you. "Of course, I'm always ready." "That's great you know, because these two over there..." He says pointing to your cousins. "Are arch nemesis with the concept! I'm counting on you to make them understand it!" He tells you jokingly, making you and Chilli laugh. "We are not art... Whatever that word is of work!" Bluey protests. "Kiddo, if I let you into the wild, you would go looking for a money tree before looking for a job!" Bandit says rolling his eyes teasing them. "There are money trees out there!? Why don't you plant one in our backyard!!!" Bingo exclaims dumbfolded. "Hahahaha! There are no money trees Bingo, that's why you can't go searching for them instead of working!" You tell her laughing a little. "If there was a money tree, my grandpa would definitely have one! He loved plants, we had banana, fig, avocado and mango trees." "Grandad doesn't have any fruit tree, does he mom?" Bingo asks Chilli confused. "No Bingo, I think he meant his other granpa." "Right, I forgot. Were the fruits good?" "Yeah, they were even better than those from the store." You answer her. After breakfast, you spend sometime with Bluey and Bingo but soon enough Wendy knocks on the door. "Hey Wendy!" Bluey and Bingo greet her. "Morning Wendy." You tell her. "Morning kids, I'm gonna have to borrow your cousin. Is that okay with you two?" "Do you really have too? Can't he keep playing with us?" Bluey asks que woman with puppy eyes. "Sorry, but I already told Judo we are going out today and I can only do that because Sam will do my chores at home. You girls don't want to see Judo angry because your cousin couldn't do my chores right?" The girls go wide eye at the comment. "Nu-huh! See you later Sam!" "Get to work Sam!" Bluey and Bingo push you out of the door, Wendy laughing heartly at the scene. "Hahaha! These two are amazing. Are you ready kiddo?" She asks you handing you the keys to her house. "Yup, Chilli gave me this guide to your laundry, is it correct?" You show her the paper. "Yeah, that's how I do it. But, just in case you need to know something, here's my number." She pulls a pen from her purse and writes down on the paper. "Okay." "Wow kid, girls are giving their numbers already, you truly are amazing for your age!" Bandit jokes surprising both of you, peaking from the side of the house. Looking at Wendy, her face is red in embarrassment. "Really funny Bandit, you're sure setting a good example for the kids." She says in a annoyed tone. "Oh thank you Wendy, I will make sure to keep the good work!" He says proudly. "Grrr!!!" Wendy growls and frowns at Bandit and he runs off scared. She huffs and turn to you again. "Well, I have to go or Judo will actually get angry, good work Sam." She tells you and leaves. You enter Wendy's house and see she left the tools at the entrance, it's weird to be in someone else's house alone. Bracing yourself you begin. Starting with dusting, taking it out of the furniture and onto the floor, this time you decided to dust the entire house in one go. Next is vacuum, which you cover every part of the floor, going twice on the carpet to take everything out. Looking at the ceiling, you realize there are some spiderwebs, you forgot about them when you cleaned Doreen's house... No matter, you can go back and finish it later, right now you have to take them out of Wendy's ceiling. After that, you clean the windows, inside and outside. Now, all that is left is the laundry, walking to the where the laundry machine is you find two baskets with clothes. "Wow, Wendy takes laundry DAY seriously, does she really wash them just once a week?" You ask yourself. "Okay, so let's see. Colored clothes goes with the normal soap, softener and normal mode. So let's start with them." You start to rummage the baskets for the colored clothes, most are small, probably from Judo. And the rest are gymnastics clothes, you did see Wendy exercise a couple of times. You pick the clothes and put them inside of the machine along the soap and softener in their boxes. Setting the machine to normal mode, you turn it on and it starts filling with water. "Well, I will have to sort the white clothes from the black and jeans and wash them separately, so I might as well do it already." With that, you start to sort the whites from the blacks. "Black shirt, this basket." "White shirt, other basket." "White socks, other basket." "Jean shorts, this basket." "Light blue panties, other basket." "Light pink socks, other basket." "Now, what this thing..." You start to unfold the black piece of fabric, and you freeze at the realization... Sure, you've seen their underwear already, but this is different. You can see THROUGH this, you've seen this on the internet already. Underwear made with the intention of "turning someone on" as the ads said on the site, you could tell it was a normal thing for adults, but you certainly didn't need to know about this part of Wendy's love-life... And obviously, shortly after finding the top piece of the see through underwear, you also found the bottom one. This wouldn't hide anything when worn, and even though your hormones are not quite there yet, you can't help but picture the sight of Wendy in these... Flustered, you focus on your task and go back to sorting the whites from the black and jeans. The machine ends a cycle and you take the colored clothes and out and throw them in the dryer. Next, the white clothes, they were accompanied by a clearing soap along with a more premium softener. The colored clothes finish and you start to fold them, after that you take them to the master bedroom. Once you return, the whites were done, so you put them in the dryer and put the black and jeans into the laundry machine. The black and jeans clothes, you had to use the normal soap and the premium softner, so you did and turned it on. Once the whites were dry, you folded them and took them upstairs. Coming back to wait to do the same to the rest. You take the clothes out of the dryer and begin to fold them. As you do, you go through THAT piece again, observing more the details as you do... Shaking your head you fold them and take the last batch upstairs. After that, you're done, hooray! Checking the time, you took 2 hours and 46 minutes to do everything, so you know how much to charge Wendy. You then leave Wendy's house, locking the door and walking back to your auntie's house. As you enter you get to the living room and find everyone in there, Chilli and Bandit are sitting in the couch watching TV as Bluey and Bingo play memory game on the floor. Bandit sees you and is the first to talk. "Hey Sam, how was the work?" "Yeah, did everything go okay?" Chilli adds up. You look at nowhere for a moment, mouth sightly open, thinking about what was amidst her clothes, and all you can say is: "I was not prepared to do Wendy's laundry." For a brief moment, the only sound in the room was the TV, but when the realization hits your uncle and aunt, they burst into laughing! "Hahahaha! I understand- hehehe! Understand you kid! Hahahaha!" Bandit says while thrashing in the couch. "Stop- Hahaha! Honey! Ha! He is just a kid!" "Big talk for someone laughing just as much! Hahaha!" You move your hands to you face, and do your best hold your own laughter. "Why are they laughing?" Bingo asks Bluey. "I have no idea..." Time pass by, you have lunch and even though you're playing with your cousins, you're really just waiting for Wendy to knock on the door and pay you. You did the math, and she has to pay you $64,27!!! And that's a lot!!! So you are kinda of anxious, and time is not passing as fast as it should... While you are waiting, you see Bingo opening the door to Bluey, pretendig to be someone answering the door to the mailman. And remember you wanna ask about the bathroom door not working properly. "Uh, Bluey, Bingo, can I ask something?" "Sure, what is it?" Bluey turns to you. "Everytime I go take a bath I close the door, and when I finish bathing the door is open. Is that door... broken?" "Hmm, I don't think I've ever paid attention to it. So I have no idea." Bluey tells you. "Yeah, we also don't take baths by ourselves, so only mom and dad can tell you that." "I see, thank you... let's go back to playing then." "Okay." Bluey then turns to Bingo again. "Sir, your electricity bill is late 14 months, you need to pay it already!" "I'm not paying it, your service is not worth it!" "But sir! Think of poor old mailman!" Bluey give Bingo puppy eyes. "They are going to make me come here twice a day to give you the warning!" After a while, you hear your uncle calling you from the entrance and go there. Just as you expect Wendy is there. "Hey Wendy, here is your keys." "Thank you, Sam. You did a great work! Even with the laundry... your uncle told me your reaction and I realize what I had left in there... I'm sorry, I should have checked before." You blush violently, to the point you can feel the heat in your face as it reddens. "It's okay, that was part of the laundry... part of the job..." "If you say so... How much was it?" "$64,27." "Well, it did take more than 2 hours." She says as she goes through her purse. "And since you did a great job, and had to see 'that', I will make it $70." "Thank you Wendy, if you need anything else, just call." You say. "Oh, I will~" "Truly a chick magnet, huh?" Bandit says smugly and Wendy looks at him menacingly just like earlier and he backs down. "Bye Sam, bye Bandit." Wendy says and walks away. Bandit looks at you, bring his hands together and take a deep breath. "Be careful with the kind of woman you bring to your life." You giggle at his silly joke. You spend the rest of the day playing with your cousins, you eat dinner and go take your bath... Just like everytime, when you're done, the door is open. You're no longer surprised, nor scared, you just want it to end. You can pay attention and try to catch whatever is doing it, or just lock the door and solve the problem, but you'd rather it just ended. You don't think it's Bluey or Bingo, because they acted way too naturally when yoh asked then. You don't want it to be Bandit, because he looks like such a fun person. He's been joking that you're good with girls and Wendy's reaction was of them were something. You don't want it to be your aunt, because she not only looks like a nice person, but she and mom have just reconnected. But even if you don't wanna admit, she has been acting weird... The dress up game, watching you sway your hips as you clean, the 'having you for dinner' comment, telling you about the laundry.... No matter, this can be just your imagination, for now, you just shake it off. Taking your phone into hands you look at your chat with your mom. "It's going great sweetie, the people that are doing the examinations are really impressed with me. A girl working here said I'm practically in! I can't wait to go back home though, this is exhausting." You smile at your mother's excitement. She has been working hard, and seeing it pay off fills you with happiness. "That's great to hear! I knew you would do great, what's the next test in there?" "Hey Sam, good night! The next one is an interview with the managers of the sector I applied. After that, they will select the last few and I will have an interview with the CEO. If everything goes right, I will be contracted and I will be able to work home office. How are things over your side?" "Everything is great, I'm having a lot of fun with aunt Chilli and uncle Bandit and my cousins. Also, when we were playing library I borrowed a book from uncle and understood what it was saying. He got really excited because of it!" "That's amazing! You're my little genius, and I can't imagine what awaits you in the future!" "Thanks mom S2 <3" "Oh, I almost forgot! I will have a couple of days off, so I will go spend some time in the city, is there anything you would like for Christmas?" "Hm, I could have some candy I've never had before, I'm still looking for my favorite food." "Okay, I will look around for something for you." "Thanks mom!" "Okay, goodnight Sam. And remember, call me if you wanna tell me something, sleep well." ... You should at least tell your mother how you feel uneasy about the bathroom door... But that could still be the door not working properly... You can live with a door not working properly. "Ok, I will. Goodnight mom." You put your cellphone in the nightstand and lay down on the bed. Tomorrow is a new day.
