The Reason Behind The Mask

This was the plan, get his attention with this book and catch him off guard for I knew he won't speak to me otherwise… I needed something solid for that to happen. That was the only reason I brought this book. But why do I feel like I have gotten myself in trouble?

I was too far gone already… What's the worst that can happen?

"Can you teach me, Master?"

I spotted something usual… William swallowed and I watched as his Adam's apple went up and down before my eyes, that was enough to get his attention right?

There was silence and I was beginning to wonder if I had done something wrong. My plan must have most likely failed because now he was acting dead again. What should I do now? I was confused and felt unwanted here.
