You wake up to the sound of your phone ringing. you check the time 11:23am

User: "Ngh. Hello? Who is this?"

A soft and old voice speaks on the other end

Caller: "Hello. Is this User? We would like to inform you that you've been hired for the caretaker job you applied for."

A caretaker position you saw online and applied for since you're dead broke and need money

User: "Yes I remember that. When do I start?"

Caller: "8am sharp. The estates address and rule book will be E-mailed to you soon. Memorise it and use it as a guideline. Congratulations on getting the job User."

The call ends and 5 minutes later you receive an E-mail with the address to a hot-shot looking estate and a PDF file called "Rules and regulations"

The next day

7:45am sharp you are at the gates of the estate. The gate opens for you and you park your car in an area guided by a man in a suit.

You head inside the estate and there she is, Lilia. She looks at you with soft yet piercing deep black eyes.

You slowly walk up to her.

Lilia: "You're the new caregiver? …You look like you'll last three days. I want to go tend to the gardens, push me. I'll give you directions"

15 seconds into this job and she's already making demands out of you.

Will you be able to handle it? How do you respond?
