After Sebastian thoroughly inspected his room, he got out from there. Then he turned around to check the other rooms. He first went to the room with 'Ivan' engraved on it. But to his surprise that room was locked. Sebastian then checked the room with 'Study' engraved on it. That room was not unlocked and opened by Sebastian turned the doorknob of the gate. And what he found inside baffled him.
That was the room was like a mini-library. Every wall in the room had a bookshelf with a lot of books on it. Just in the middle of the room, there was a huge table and chair. The table was inclined at such an angle that it made it easier for the person sitting on the chair to write or read. The table looked like it was made of red color wood. And it was polished so thoroughly and looked so beautiful that made it look like something from medieval times. The chair on the other hand was a very comfortable office chair and was height adjustable.
Sebastian came in and inspected the table. By the side of the table, there was a pen holder with had many exquisite-looking pens. When Sebastian was inspecting the table, it was then he noticed something else. Just in front of the table was a whiteboard. Seeing that Sebastian felt that this whole setup was made like a classroom…
Sebastian was fascinated by the books on the bookshelves. As he started inspecting those books, he saw that all these books were in fact novels. He had never seen so many novels in one place. He saw a ton of books that were on his wishlist. As he had nothing to do right now, he directly dove into the books. The first book that Sebastian picked up was called 'The Game of Thrones' the first book of a series called the Song of Fire and Ice. He had heard a lot about the series from his classmates. So he was interested in seeing what this book has to offer.
…
Sebastian was so engrossed in reading that he didn't notice how much time had passed. As he finished the 3/4th of the book, he started feeling hungry. So he thought that he should grab probably grab a snack from the kitchen downstairs. So Sebastian noted the page that he was reading and close the book. He then got out of the room. But as he got out of the room he noticed something…
Sebastian noticed that the door with 'Ivan' engraved on it was open. The door was barely open. But Sebastian remembers that when he tried to open the gate previously, the gate didn't budge. He thought that the room was locked. But how come that room was now open?
Curious about what was behind the door, Sebastian pushed the door open. He then saw that the room was relatively simple as compared to his mother and his room. The room had a simple bed with a nightstand on either side. On one of the nightstands, there was a beautiful plant that Sebastian had ever seen in his life. That plant looked like a bonsai tree. It had pitch-black bark with purple color leaves. That tree looked like something out of a fairy tale and was very mesmerizing.
Another thing that made this room stand out was its computer. The computer in the room was hooked up with a lot of monitors. And those monitors showed the live feed was the whole house. Sebastian didn't see any cameras around the house, so how come there is a live feed of the house in front of him?
Sebastian wanted to take a closer look at the camera setup. So as he stepped forward and was about to walk into the room, it was then he heard a deep voice from behind…
"Didn't your mother teach any manners? It is considered rude to enter someone else's room without permission." The voice said. The voice spoke in a very weird English accent. Hearing that Sebastian turned around and there he saw a man standing at the door.
The man standing in front of Sebastian was a black man. That man had very curly hair and his hair was very short. He was clean shaved and was 6 feet and 2 inches tall. That man was in 3 piece suit with had long black blazer. Inside the black blazer, that man was wearing a grey color coat with grey color trousers. That man's attire resembled that of butlers that one could see in the movies. Thus Sebastian understood that this must be the butler that the man was talking about.
"What are you doing here young man?" the man asked Sebastian asked once again.
"I… I was just curious about this room." Sebastian said.
"So you barge in someone else's room just because you were a little bit curious? Is this the manners that your mother had taught you?" the man yelled Sebastian.
"I am sorry. It won't happen again." Sebastian said.
"It better be. Now come on out here." The man said. Obeying the man's command Sebastian came out of the room. As he came out, that man closed the door behind him. Then with the key that he had he locked the door. Then he looked at Sebastian who had his head down as he was feeling guilty.
"Look up boy." The man said. Hearing him, Sebastian looked up.
"My name is Ivan. I will be your butler for the rest of your stay here in this place. What is your name?" the man asked.
"Sebastian," Sebastian replied.
"Now, as I saw earlier you were reading a book, that is why I didn't disturb you. So, did you finish your book?" the man asked.
"No… I was feeling hungry… So I come out of the room to… for a snack." Sebastian said.
"I can take care of that. Bring your mother down. I will make something for you two." The man said.
Hearing this Sebastian went to his mother's room. While the man went downstairs. As Sebastian got into his mother's room, he saw that she was still sleeping. He quietly approached her. As he came close to her, he kissed her on her forehead and whispered…
"Mother." He said.
But his whisper startled Jenny. She woke up and screamed. She sat up straight and then looked around her. For a moment she got confused as to where she was. But then she started remembering everything. She remembered what had happened until now, and it was then she noticed Sebastian standing beside her. She then hugged him tightly and sighed with relief. Sebastian in return hugged her back
