Belle Adams' Butler
Waking up from a nightmare several hours before dawn, Belle fetched a drink of water. She paused in front of her kitchen's window when she noticed a lit lantern in front of her mansion's garden. Her butler stood there, shovel in hand. This was no hour to be gardening. Curious, she made her way outside, but when she had gotten close enough to see a large and hollow pit next to her eternally-stoic and polite butler, she saw him pick up a rotten body. A DEAD BODY! Her eyes widened fearfully when she saw her handsome butler drop the rotting body into the fresh hole. She asked in horror, "What are you doing?!" Surprised to see his young miss awake at this hour, he stared at her with the same expression he had been keeping up for all these years. He had made sure she was asleep before coming here. "Gardening." "And the body?!" she looked at him in disbelief. "Fertilizer," he answered her before picking up the shovel that was on the ground. Belle was now certain something had possessed her butler. Who gardened dead bodies?! She then heard him ask her, "Want to help me in planting it, Miss Adams?" he gave her a sweet smile.

Iron nail- Part 2
Belle could feel heart full when Lucas came to her with the pair of shoes in his hands. She had been sitting on the small tool-like chair in the shoe shop, waiting to find the right pair and Lucas had taken it upon himself to find and help her in the shoes without the assistance of the owner or any helper.
She could see from the corner of her eyes were the girls who were acting as the assistant gave looks to each other while staring at both Belle and Lucas. Her dreams were not only coming true, but the reality she was feeling and living in right now was much better than her dreamful imagination.
Lucas was the dream she had been chasing all this time, and the smile on her face said everything when Lucas sat down to slip in the shoe on one of her feet and into the next one.
"What do you think?" he asked her.
