Dark Eyes part 1

Dark inescapable eyes, I fought the need to look away. I failed. I could not endure her eyes close upon me. I knelt and found the cold comfort of the floor. Head down, her presence enveloped me.
"Why are you here in my way?"
"To serve you, Mistress, in any way that pleases you." I kept my head to the floor. I daren't look up.
"This is tiresome. I am no interested in micromanaging your life. Go sit in the closet until you know what to do. That's it, be off with you now."
I didn't know at all what to do, what she wanted, what I am somehow supposed to intuit, "Yes, Ma'am." I kept my head low and crawled off toward the hall closet.
"No! Not that one! The broom closet, under the stair. I don't want to see or hear from you until you know what to do."
I looked up. Her long finger pointed at a small door under the stair. She has just returned from her morning run. Her sissy maid let me in. I waited for her in the hall as he instructed. I did everything as instructed. I arrived on time. I waited in the hall. I got on my knees when she entered. Now I am crawling to the closet.
The broom closet was just that, a small space with barely enough space for the upright vacuum. Only 4 feet high, I couldn't stand and there was not enough space to sit. I picked up the vacuum and held it on my knees as I folded myself into the space. With effort I wedged my fingers under the door for leverage; I finally succeeded in getting the door closed. I heard it latch before I realized the was no opener from the inside.
