THE FIRST DAY

Amelia was thinking that just by looking at Ethan, she could tell how angry he would be. But she had thought in her mind that her home and her brother's studies depend on this job, so she would not make him angry at all. Amelia was still unaware that she had met Charlotte before and Ethan had seen her for the first time.

Amelia had fallen asleep while thinking. Her eyes opened when Lucy knocked on the door of her house. She had already brought pizza and cold drinks. Amelia called her inside the house. So Lucy, while entering inside the house, asked Amelia, "Which movie to watch? But not horror. You know my choice!"

Amelia laughed and said, "When the choice is yours, then decide for yourself. I will watch anything."

Lucy pulled both of Amelia's cheeks and said, "Oh my dear innocent friend! Come on, I'll think for myself." And saying this, Lucy put the pizza and cold drinks on the center table and put on a horror movie on TV through the OTT platform. Both watched the movie until about 12 o'clock, then before going to sleep, Amelia suddenly remembered, "Oh man! I forgot! I have to do some packing too."

Surprised, Lucy asked, "Packing of what?"

Amelia said to Lucy, "Oh, I have to move to the same house where I work. This job will be like 24 hours with that girl. Who knows when she might need me?"

Lucy teasingly said to Amelia, "Dear Amelia! You are sounding like her mother. Do you have a crush on her dad?"

Amelia reprimanded Lucy and said, "Shut up, Lucy. It's nothing like that. I don't care if her dad is handsome and good looking. I'm just going there to do my work."

Lucy pulled Amelia's leg and said, "Oh! So that's it! You have come after noticing so much, and now such a foundation is being built in front of me. Come on! Anyway, all the best for your job."

Amelia made a face and said, "Lucy, if you're upset, please help me with the packing. I have to wake up early in the morning too."

Lucy helped Amelia with the packing, and then they went to sleep. Amelia's mind kept replaying Lucy's words - "That man is really handsome. I don't know if his wife is dead or has left him. But as for me, I only care about that girl." Amelia didn't know who was who and how, and now she turned and closed her eyes.

Amelia was still unaware that she was Ethan's niece and not his daughter. Seeing his concern for Charlotte, one would think that she is his own daughter. But this truth had not yet come before Amelia.

Amelia woke up at 6 in the morning. She quickly freshened up and got ready to leave. She wrote a note and kept it on the table near Lucy, in which she wrote - "Good morning! I am leaving. Lock the house well and keep the key with you, and also water my plants. If I find a good place, I will move my plants! Bye | See you soon."

Amelia caught a taxi and reached outside Ethan's house by around 8 am. James, whom Amelia asked to meet Ethan, had a change in attitude today. After all, Amelia was very beautiful and anyone could be impressed by seeing her, especially since she was going to work in the same house. So fighting with her wouldn't get any work done. Thinking this, James took her to Ethan. But Ethan was still in the gym, so he asked James to wait for Amelia in the hall.

Amelia sat there in the hall. When Ethan didn't come for a long time, Amelia started getting bored. She just wanted to meet Charlotte. Now she was also feeling thirsty. But thinking about where she could get water, she started looking for the kitchen.

But wondering where the kitchen could be in such a big house, Amelia was running her eyes here and there when she accidentally opened the door of Ethan's gym.

At the time when she opened the door, Ethan also opened that door from inside to come out. But he was totally unaware of Amelia being outside. As soon as he opened that door, he and Amelia had a big fight. When Amelia was about to fall, she held Ethan's T-shirt tightly. Ethan was completely bathed in sweat at this time. He also held Amelia by her waist to save her from falling.

Ethan asked her angrily, "What are you doing here?"

Amelia replied in a trembling voice, "I was thirsty so I was looking for the kitchen."

Ethan asked her angrily, "So you were searching for the kitchen? Can't you read 'do not enter'? And if you were thirsty, you should have asked Mrs. Thompson. Whatever you need, it will be provided. From now on, I don't want to see you anywhere near this room.

This is a restricted area." Completing his words, Ethan made Amelia stand straight. But Amelia was still holding Ethan's T-shirt. When Ethan held Amelia's hand and released his T-shirt, Amelia felt a little shy. She lowered her eyes and came out of there. Her heartbeat had doubled in speed.

As Amelia ran out, she avoided colliding with Mrs. Thompson. Mrs. Thompson immediately recognized her as Charlotte's new nanny. But she wondered why she was coming out of Ethan's gym.

Mrs. Thompson asked Amelia, "Dear, what were you doing outside Ethan's gym? You are Charlotte's nanny, right?"

Amelia clarified and said, "I was thirsty, so I was just looking for the kitchen. But I didn't know there were any restricted areas in this house. I will be more careful from now on."

Mrs. Thompson explained to Amelia and said, "That stubborn son of mine doesn't like anyone entering his room or gym. He doesn't allow anyone in his personal space. I only go there to clean. Now, don't worry about water. I'll provide it for you." While speaking, she took Amelia with her.

Amelia was yet to meet Charlotte. Mrs. Thompson showed Amelia the kitchen and after discussing with her, she went to fetch Charlotte from her room. Mrs. Thompson had prepared a room next to Charlotte's room for Amelia, as requested by Ethan. This room was situated between Charlotte and Ethan's rooms.

Ethan had deliberately kept Amelia's room near Charlotte's so that he could take care of her at any time. Amelia's luggage had already arrived in the room. Ever since Amelia bumped into Ethan, she could smell his perfume lingering on her, which made it hard for her to concentrate on her work.
