Covering on my day off.

Hi, I work at food retail. I have quite a few frustrations. Today, our manager said to me, that for tomorrow I have to cover for the manager's and one Supervisor's paperwork time that they are doing during their shift… Although it would be my day off, I was told to come in. I couldn't say no as I feared the retaliation. My question is, – why do I have to cover for someone's “paperwork” time? – If I have to work regardless of my choice, then why was I given the day off? Isn't the day off supposed to give me some rest?
