Handsome and Rude

Adrien removed his bag and handed it to the maid. He slowly walked up to the table and took the chair opposite me.

After putting a few things in his plate he quietly ate his food.

I looked over at Mr Vinnent and he gestured me to continue eating my food.

I chewed slowly afraid of making any sound.

All the cheerful bubbles that were once there were busted and a cold tension overwhelmed the whole dinning room.

Even the once delicious food now tasted tasteless.

"Adriel right?"

His voice was so cold that it made my fingers shake and l almost dropped the fork.

"Ye..yes my name is Adriel"

"Let me guess, its not even your real name"

"No it is his real name. Adriel's name is almost close to yours , isn't he perfect for a little brother"

"You mean isn't he perfect for my replacement?"

"Adrien l am doing this for you!!"

"And did l ask you for it"

I watched back and forth as they threw words at each other.They seemed to be fighting but Adrien is so calm like he doesn't really care about what he is saying.

But it does seem like he doesn't like me that much, so will l be send away.

"Don't worry, Adrien just doesn't like new people, but he will get used to you"

Mr Vinnent voice pulled me from my imaginations.

I looked around but Adrien was already gone.

"Thank you Mr Vinnent"

"Good boy now go and sleep, tomorrow l will show you around okay?"

"Okay, Good night"

I stood up and went back to my room.

As l covered myself with the warm blankets l couldn't help but think of Adrien's behaviour at the dinning table.

I don't want to leave this place, l finally have a home and a family. l can't go back to that lonely and gloomy place. I have to make Adrien like me, that way l can get to stay and then we will be a happy family. But l barely know Adrien how am l going to make him like me.

While trying to figure out a way to make Adrien like me l fell asleep.

Being used to wake up early, l woke up before the sun even rose.

Not feeling sleepy anymore l went to take a bath.

After bathing l was conflicted in what l should wear since l only had one new pair of clothes and my old rigged clothes.

While trying to find a solution l heard a knock.

"Second Young Master, l brought you some clothes to wear"

I was delighted, problem solved.l wrapped myself in a towel and went to collect my clothes.

After l was done wearing them l found out that l really like bright clothes, they lighten my mood.

When l got downstairs l didn't see anyone except for the maids.

"Second Young Master, are you hungry l have prepared some food for you"

An older maid called me young master l felt uncomfortable but l would never refuse food.

"Where is Mr Vinnent and Adrien?"

"Master went out he said he will come back soon and Young Master went out for a run"

"Okay l will go and see Adrien first then l will come back and eat"

I need to make Adrien like me so the food can wait for me.

I walked out of the house and saw a certain maid holding a towel.

"Good morning, is that for Adrien?"

"Yes Second Young Master, l am waiting to give it to him after he is done running"

"Then can you give it to me, l will hand it to him when he is done"

He hesitated a bit before handling the towel to me.

"Okay Second Young Master"

I took the towel from him and waited for Adrien to come.

After 10 minutes l saw Adrien coming towards me.

For a moment l forgot how to breath when l saw him.

His hair was wet covering his face, making him look so handsome.His skin was also glowing, making him look like he is one with the sun.When he came face to face with me l lost my voice.

He looked at me then at the towel in my hands for a little while and l handed the towel to him but instead he looked at me as if l am stupid and walked away.

I was left there standing alone and handing the towel to air for a while until l snapped.

Why is he both handsome and rude shouldn't he just pick one.
