Introduction
The situation is that of colonialism, different social classes living separately together. The upper class lives comfortable, having a good life, fully taken care of by the lower class, the working class. The upper class lives nicely, having good food cooked for them, having good clothes, made and washed for them by the servants. The theme of use and abuse is strong.
The superiors can also have sex with the servants which can produce children. But they will be denied their status and treated as bastards. The mixing of the classes should not happen and will be denied.
The opposite can be of servants taking advantage of their superiors by doing only the minimum and having a simple life without responsibilities.
