The first day of my new job with Emery was almost over, I am totally regretting on agreeing to sign that damn contract. " Sir, is there any chance of breaching the contract?" I asked, hoping there would be a slight chance. " None" Emery replied, " But Sir, as you well know I don't reside in this city and I still have to move into the apartment provided by the company and more important at least inform my parents about my departure," I said. " No need, I asked Secretary Walkers to do all those and got permission from your parents" Emery replied. " H-how did you get my parent's address? And my clothes are already moved into the apartment?" I uttered, " Well, there's nothing money can't buy in this world. I could any information for a person's personal background you see" Emery replied. Did this man do a background check on me? Looks like I'm tied up to a creep here. " U-um Sir, where is that apartment I'm supposed to live. I just got to a new city, there's a 100% chance of me getting lost in here" I said.
" I'll take you there, besides, we are not going to live that far," Emery said. What? We are not going to live that far? I don't get him, maybe he meant that we live in places not so far from each other, maybe a couple of roads and blocks are what he actually meant. " Hop in rabbit," Emery said, ugh, again with that outdated nickname. He sat on the driver's seat while I sat on the front seat next to him, stiff as can be, we drove to a building which looked very fancy and all. Havre D'or, the name of the building, seems like this place offers places on lease. " Haver Due? Avir Dur?" I uttered as I tried to pronounce it, Emery giggled the whole time I tried pronouncing the building's name. We then arrived inside the building, it had a unique interior much luxurious than the previous hotel I worked for. It had a humongous chandelier above and people who wore expensive items. " Sir Robertson, is this place where my apartment is located?" I asked. " No, it's not an apartment. You'll be owning a room" Emery replied. My own room? A whole room? I can't even do chores properly back in my parent's house now I had to possess such a fancy room? "Here are your two cards for opening your designated rooms Sir," the Receptionist said. Two cards? Why does Emery have another card?
"Floor Number 25" Emery said, we then went up the elevator to go to floor 25. Wooh! That was a sweet elevator ride, we then walked to room 181 which was supposedly my room. " Here's your card," Emery said, " Thanks, erm, whose card is that your holding?" I asked. " Oh, this? This is the card for room 187 which is going to be my room" Emery said. Wait- Emery's room? " So we're going to be basically neighbors for the whole eternity," Emery said. " And- as my personal aid, you need to be on call 24/7 always" he continued. My private life- I wailed, " Is that so?" I replied then rushed to open the door and slammed it close. " Woah!" I exclaimed this room is even bigger than my old house! I then explored the whole place and begun to unbox my stuff, while doing this I spotted a remote hung on the wall next to the light switch. I carefully pulled it out from the thing that supported it and decided to press the button with a power on the sign. A cold breeze started to come to me and it was the Air Condition, " What? An Aircon in the living room?" I said, In our old house we never had owned an air conditioner.
I then pressed all the buttons I could find in the remote trying to lessen the dropping of temperature in the whole room. The door suddenly opened, it was Emery! " Why are you so loud all of a sudden" Emery said, " Oh I was just trying to shut this off" I replied. Emery then snatched away the remote from my hands and pressed on the button, " Listen here rabbit, this is where you press to increase the temperature here" Emery said. " Oh m-my bad" I replied. Emery handed me back the remote and was about to turn around to leave, " WAIT!" I yelled, Emery turned his back again to face me. " What?" Emery said, " How did you get to open the door, this was supposed to be my room and I still have the card here with me to open this room," I said, " Oh, I asked for a duplicate for your room in case of emergency," Emery said. " WHAT!?!" I yelled. Emery then left my room and went back to his, " I need to buy a lot of locks, he is capable of going in here whenever he pleases" I uttered to myself. " That girl is going to need to learn about modern life"Emery chuckled.
