"...No. Let's just say I'm busy."

After saying that, I went straight to my room. In front of my room are some maids standing guard, I don't know what that means. I certainly hate talking to anybody right now.

A waiter stands in my way, ".. Young master is not allowed to enter the room first!"

I ignored his words and gave him a dirty look to dismiss the servant from my path.

Another servant stood in my way and said, "By order of madame, Young Master is forbidden to enter your room!"

I was unmoved, reluctant to answer. It's hard for me to just hit them with all my might.

"Young Master, behave yourself!" Snapped a waiter.

'What a nuisance! If these useless waitresses had caught me in the bad mood, I would have made sure they couldn't fall asleep day and night!' I said to myself.

I close my eyes for a moment, take a deep breath, take off the black suit on my plain white shirt, and throw it in the wrong direction. I cough so hard that they freeze... dare not make a sound.

"Get out of my way, or regret what you have done in the future!" I said in a threatening tone.

There was this waitresses challenging me with an intimidating stare.

'Hmph. Don't even try to challenge me, especially when I'm in a very bad mood right now!' I thought to myself.

"Ooh... Wanna fight me, huh? Hmph. Just try! And don't blame me if you regret it later!" I said with my fist clenched.

"Vid! Come on. Don't look for trouble..."

"... That's right! You only need to regret it now, otherwise."

"You are too obedient to the Young Master!"

'What an arrogant servant I must complain to grandmother!' I thought to myself.

'...By the way, if you hadn't played around with him it would've been bad.' Let's just say I was venting my anger on my thought inside.

I walked up to him, "Don't waste your time, a honorable waiter!" I whispered right in his ear.

The attendant clenched his hands, "Don't be proud! If you're a man, then fight like a man!" He said by pointing out my act.

Gotcha! He's hooked by my game, it's gonna be a real fun show. I hope he pleases me, otherwise.. Then I will submit his resignation to granny. Selfish? Let it go, she challenged me earlier anyway.

"Then let's go to the back yard! Don't waste my precious time." I said by stretching out both hands.

According to my eyes, that old maid has been ignited by emotion. Haha, very funny! At least it does amuse me a little. I beat him to the sports field in the back. Please make the most of it, my challenger is an old man in his mid to late teens. I can't guarantee what a win it will be, but I've certainly estimated 95% of his losses. Let's hope it's true. Otherwise, where would you like me as the Young Master of John's home? Speaking of dads... Ahk, stop! I need to focus on taking out my anger on the old man. He's not actually old, it's just that his style and language look so worn out like an old geezer who's been silent for a long time. Forget it, it makes me dizzy.

I got to the back yard and wait for the old fart to get here. From behind, I heard whispers of servants who seemed to have grown weary of work.

I flipped over and yelled, "Aah! It seems grandma hired a tired waitress! Should I tell on you?" I said with a casual face but full of threats.

The maid dispersed herself. I'm sure they were afraid of my threats earlier.

I yawned, got tired of waiting for that old fart who wouldn't come. Where the hell is he? He says 'real man' yet he himself doesn't see me here.

Hmph! Is he trying to play with me?

"Ahem. Sorry to keep you waiting, Young Master"

I watched the man from top to bottom. Ooh~ she changed her clothes.. Not bad!

"Come, don't make this young master wait for an old man like yourself." I said who intended to ignite his emotions.

Bingo! Again, he is drawn to my word.

"What's all this commotion?!"

End Pov

- NORMAL POV -

"what's all this commotion?" Grandmother shouted from behind Deva.

"David, what's wrong with your waitress outfit? Is it not finished washing?"

"And... Deva? Weren't you resting in your room? Why are you here?"

Deva shows his sly smile, "Just ask the old man, I don't understand anything here." He said by leaving the field without a word.

"David? David? What's going on?" Ask grandma.

"Eu-em.... The Young Master wanted to enter the room and then I blocked him, he forced his way through and I kept blocking him until he asked me to fight in the field. That's it, lady." Clearly David with eyes filled with emotion.

Plak!

A slap landed seamlessly on David's right cheek, "Outrageous! Did you just see my grandson get out of the hospital, HUH?!!" Shouted grandmother.

David froze, he didn't dare to fight his mistress.

'So-so? Did you come back from the hospital?'Said David in his heart.

PLAK!

Deva held back her slap so quickly, "You needn't bother slapping the old man over and over again with your beautiful hands. Just do what I want, and I get challenged by him. So I should be the one to punish him." Deva said.

'...Hehe, feel your remorse! I'll make sure your punishment isn't easy ' Deva said in his heart.

Grandma is massaging her temples, "It's okay, I'm leaving everything to my grandchild. But remember not to tire yourself out, understand Dev?"

Deva nodded her head in reply. Then she left the gym, along with some of the servants who followed her from behind. Deva also left the field, but her hands were cut off by the servant who had challenged her earlier.

"What?"

"I accept all the punishment you give me, please forgive my insolence." He said by kneeling to Deva.

'...Forgiveness? Hm.. It's ok, but...'

"I have a plan, wanna help me? But you have to do well, if not thoroughly. I will not spare you for the rest of my life, plus I will return you to your village of origin. How? This is just the duty." Deva said emphatically in his every word.

Without thinking it over, David nodded his head confidently, "Of course I will take care of the punishment as best I can!"

"Clever butler!.."

'.. He didn't suspect anything huh? I meant it bad. It's okay, he has agreed to her.' Deva is in his heart.

"Anyway... You can go now, I'm tired and need some rest." Deva said.

"Yes, Sir!"

—

Deva had lain on his bed, he was really tired and also bored.

"Hah ticks Vina how are you? I hope he's okay... I want to hug her..."

'Eh?!!!! Speaking of cuddling, didn't Vina take me to the hospital that day?'

"Sly Lewis! He kept this from me!"

"Hah...Forget it already."

Drrt Drrt ~

"Who sends me a message when I need this quiet?"

- A message from 'Stupid Dad! '-

Deva read the message his father sent her.

This is what it says, 'Deva my son, how are you? I'm sorry I didn't tell you till today. Did you send a message that i said? Hope it is. I wish you'd come tonight, -Dad'

"It doesn't matter.. How can I answer, yea?"

"Huh! Don't even bother!"

'But...'
