Finding an employer who doesn't inquire excessively about my background is difficult. I therefore give thanks to the stars for providing me with a job cleaning the Garricks' gorgeous apartment with views of the city and cooking elaborate meals in their gleaming kitchen. I can work here for a while and keep silent till I achieve my goals. It's practically flawless. However, I have yet to meet Mrs. Garrick or view the guest bedroom. I hear her crying, for sure. When I'm doing laundry, I see bloodstains around the neck of her white pajamas. And I'm going to have to knock on the door one day. Everything changes when it slowly swings open to reveal what's inside.
