Chapter: 2
(FIXED)
After We Finished Breakfast There Was Many Things Inside My mind, As I slowly walk heading in the direction of My Father’s Office. Many questions where slowly entered inside of my head.
'Why Would My so Grumpy yet Strict Father Would want to talk with me in Private?'
‘Just thinking about It is really weird?’ My body shivered Thinking about such frivolous things. why would my Father go to such lengths to talk with me alone?
I was Few Steps Away In front of a large door. It was neither Luxurious nor fancy. It seemed elegant but hold its simplicity.
'Does it Really reflect my father’s personality?' Izach jokingly thought
I took a deep breath readying myself what kind of absurd And Groundbreaking Revelation would I Unravel? I sighed while slowly Knocked the Door and I opened my mouth.
“Father May I Come In,” I said Respectfully.
“You May Come In”.My Father Replied
Izach Slowly Opened The Door Of His Fathers Office It wasn’t any means Grand it was Spacious You could See it was Really Filled With Important Files And Many Documents Stacked And Arranged in A corner It wasn’t Disorganised as it looks. While Izach Slowly Scanned his surroundings.
“Well, you seem so occupied?” My Father spoke in an intrigue Tone.
“A-ah Well It’s Been Far 2 Years Since I last entered this room……” Izach’s Voice was calm yet deep inside it carried pain and a sour feeling in his heart, While he slowly looked away as he avoids his father’s gaze
Few seconds pass the room was filled with silence neither Izach nor his Father talked at that time, While Izach Took the initiative and Cough in an acting manner
“*Cough*Cough….So father Why did you Call me on Such Occasion?”
“Well, we have some Business to attend to?”
“Then Please Cut to the Chase Father?”
“Well do you Still Remember the Young girl you always hang out with?”
“Oh do You Mean ‘Mara’?”
“Ah Yes, the Young Lady from the Flint Household. I Met her father unknowingly He Invited me For Dinner”
“So what did You talk about?”
“He Said Her Daughter Is Returning Home This Next Month and urged me to come with you. Would it be great if you could join me when we go to their House for Dinner?”
“Then If It’s Just Dinner Then I would gladly accept”
“Then I Guess You should leave I am a bit of a tight situation,”
“Then if I May Excuse Myself”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s almost been an hour Since Izach and His Father’s Little Chat, Izach who is still dazed in His room Because of his Grumpy Old Man in Inviting Him to Join In his Dinner with the Flint Household. Izach who Still was Dazed while looking Outside of his window, A Knock in His Door was Heard.
-Knock! Knock!
Izach, who was Brought Back to Reality looked Immediately at His Door and Asked.
“Who is it?”
“It is Me Young Lord”. A Calm Yet Respectful Voice Reached Izach’s Ear; it was his Butler Hilbert.
“Enter……”.Izach who answered in a Short sentence
The Door Opened It was an Old Person Who Was Wearing His Butler’s Uniform But something Was Different, Izach Scanned Hilbert Head to Toe There Was A Hat in His Head. Izach frowned Knowing that it was Bad News izach Quickly Replied.
“Who Are you?” .Izach Answered?
Knowing Izach Who Can’t See a Person's Face while Sounds Like that old fox of a Butler Replied in a questioned manner.
“A-Ah, I forgot”.The Old Man Who Was Wearing a hat took off his Hat Revealed it was His sly fox of a butler.
“It is Okay Hilbert”
“Well Young Lord it's A Sunny Day It would be great if we could go out for a Walk?” Hilbert answered in a sarcastic yet Unknowing Tone. That made Izach Imagine This Sly Old of a Fox Having a Smile in His face Izach Shivered just thinking about it knowing it was Bad News Izach Quickly Answered.
“No” Izach Answered While He Crossed His Hand Showing That this ‘Young Lord’ Isn’t Changing His Mind
Hilbert Sighed Knowing it was Expected this Was the supposed Answer he would hear from his Master.
“Could You Thin-“
“I Said No” Izach Who butted in not letting Hilbert Continue.
“*Sigh……… You Know, Young Lord, I'm The One Who Manages and Buys Your Art Material?”
“Well, I can ask My Father to Pay You?”
“*Cough *Cough You Know Young Lord I Manage all of the Daily Necessities Here Remember?”
“Ugh Don’t Even Bother of Preaching Me you Old Fox….”
“When you look at it being Old is not so Bad when You Consider it Young lord?”
“Ah yes The smell of A Old Man, Now That I think of it. Your Mouth Runs like the Stream of a River Current, that even your Witty Remarks Never gets old” Izach Frowned in an Annoyed manner Knowing. This old Fox of a butler never Runs out of the word to say.
Hilbert flinched due to Izachs remark that made him took a step back.
Unknowingly A Smile Crept on Izach face. it was a smile of Victory.
Then a Chuckle escaped from the old man's mouth
“Even I Remember the Young Lord Running Buck Naked through the Hallway Calling my Name. I Miss the old Times”
Hilbert said as If he was opening a dark past Izach wouldn't wish to remember.
That even made Izach stood from his seat.
“You-You Sly old Fox!!!!” A Vein Popped out of Izach’s his Voice Ranged out in all the Corners of the manor, even the birds Who was Quietly hanging at the Tree branches near his window flapped their wings and flew away from their nest.
“Then would you like To Join Me in A walk, Young Lord?” The sly old Fox Said in a Playful Yet teasing Tone
Izach Took a step back unknowingly he can’t still beat this Old Fox. Izach sat at a Chair near him due to the stress of Dealing with his So-Called ‘Butler’.
Izach sighed in Defeat.
“Okay Let’s Go. Prepare the Carriage if we're going out then let’s go to the City I do need to Buy Some Paint and maybe I Can sketch something at the Park To pass some time?”
“Then let's Prepare first before we head Out then Young Lord” Hilbert Answered.
