“You’re just like Mico- arrogant. Come on Nigel and help me out” she said, pouting her lips.
I looked at her with disbelieve. How did I end up here in disbelieve. How did I end up here in the first place?
Next, she stood up and dragged me to sit in front of the basin and before I could say ah, she dipped my hands into the water.

I returned home later in the night, putting on hand gloves and feeling like my entire world was.falling apart.
I couldn’t feel my hands anymore and the only thing that was in my mind was bed and slerp.
I walked into the room and met my siblings there and they flinched at the gloves on my hands.
“Mico where…what’s that?”
“What happened to your hands?’
“Why re you putting on gloves? ”
They all asked at the same time but at that moment, I was deaf and dumb and just ignored them.
“Mico…”
“Just shut up” I said to Karen who was speaking, still not turning around to look at them.
But I finally stopped at the stairs.
“Please don’t tell mum about this” I stopped and told trim and finally took the stairs.
Well, if mum gets to know about this, she’s definitely going to take me to India for treatment.
I got into my room and crashed on the bed.
Oh, Alyssa, why did you have to do this to me?
My hands were so red and sore and I don’t think I’ll even be able to kill an ant with it.
This Alyssa might just end up killing me if I continue going to her. I can’t believe she actually made me – Mico Salvatore wash clothes today.
Jesus!
I took out my phone and dialled the number. It ringed for some time before the caller finally picked up. It was a a delivery agent
“Hel…”
“Did it have to take you ages before you answer the call?” I asked peskily.
“I’m sorry sir. I was…”
“Well, you should be sorry for yourself. I guess you don’t know how difficult it is to ask a a cloth” I cut him off and paused, panting heavily.
“I need you to deliver a washing machine to someone immediately!”
