''What stories? What do you mean historical?'' I had to cut him off from talking as soon as I heard what he was saying. I was lost in what he was saying.
He turned pale when I asked him that, and he looked as if he had realized something. I gave him a questioning look to explain himself; he might have mistaken me for someone else.
''A-ah. I mean, the other fanfiction novels that I've read written by other authors about Becky and you It was really amazing, and it inspired me to write my own fanfiction as my idol. '' His eyes are looking everywhere but me; he must be shy. I can't blame him; I too get shy whenever I see my face in the mirror.
"I am sorry if I confused you; I was just too nervous and excited that I finally met you." "You and Becky are real and so beautiful in person, like an angel who came down to earth." I smirked in my head hearing him say that; he was so red while saying these words, and he was still not looking at me directly.
"Oh my god, of course we're real, hehe." Thank you. "Don't say that me and Becky are just normal people like everyone else." I said to him, Let him be calm; he looks like he is going to pass out in front of me out of excitement. He replied, "I know you guys are not normal; you both are my idols, and meeting you both is a dream come true for me."
'' Haha , I am grateful to hear that, but we as celebrities wouldn't be in our position if it weren't for our fellow fans who supported us from the start.'' Our fans are the reason why we are able to pursue our passion and live our dreams. We owe it all to them, and we will always be grateful for their unwavering support. So, thank you very much, Mr. Cute Guy, for being an avid fan. Even though this tandem was just made by my fans, I am still thankful, and look where we are now filming the film adaptation of one of the greatest fanfics ever made by our fans, which is you, Mr. Cute Guy . You are one of us now; you are now also a part of industry.'' I sincerely told him that while looking into his eyes and tapping his shoulder.
''Thank you.'' His short but sincere response to what I said: He looked at me like he has alot more to say, but he just stood in front of me without saying anything. What's up with this guy? Something's bothering me about this writer.
A moment of silence passed, and I received a text from my assistant saying that director Wuttapong was now asking us to prepare for our next shoot.
I looked at the time, and it said 4:30 am, and that was the only time I saw the busy people around us going there and here to prepare the film scene. I couldn't shake off the feeling that the writer was hiding something from us. Why didn't I see them earlier? There were no people here when I got here, and it's impossible that no one even greeted me. It's not that I am wanting attention or demanding it; it's just so unusual.
''I guess it's my cue to go now, Miss Freen; you still need to prepare for your shoot today .'' The writer said that before he went somewhere else, and I just nodded to him.
There is something off about this writer; perhaps it was just my imagination, but I decided to keep an eye on him next meeting.
I think I might really need to see my therapist sooner or later. My imagination and way of thinking are getting more bizarre. Or is it?
What if my gut feelings turned out to be true?
''Where have you been? We are looking for you. The butler servant has been looking for you; he has an important announcement to make in the servants headquarters.'' My co-servant told me as soon as I managed to get back in my servant place after the dance that, thankfully, no one caught me participating in the dance as Kirk helped me hide while changing.
And I saw them already lined up in this hall as the chief servants in front of us .
Hearing what she just said made me feel nervous. Did someone catch me sneaking out of the house? Am I going to be kicked out of the mansion ?
I saw my mother in the front row, glaring in my direction. Now I am more convinced that I will be the one on top of the topic in this meeting.
I am sure to be kicked out this time, as this is not the first time that I have been caught sneaking out and not doing my tasks.
My mother would kill me this time if my hint was right. She was the one who put in the effort to get me in as one of the servants of the noble family. I need to come up with a plan to redeem myself and show that I am capable of fulfilling my duties. Perhaps I can apologize and offer to work extra hours to make up for my mistakes.
Everyone was chatting, wondering what the purpose of this meeting would be. When we heard loud foot steps approaching the hall that we were in, everyone came silent. Lady Nam entered the room with a tall white man behind her.
Everyone was chatting, wondering what the purpose of this meeting would be. When we heard loud foot steps approaching the hall that we were in, everyone came to a halt. Miss Nam entered the room with a tall, white man behind her.
''Is everyone here?'' Lady Nam started, "Yes, everyone is present," and Mother replied , as she was one of the servant chiefs. "We are ready to hear what Lady Nam has to say."
''This Mr. Lee, the Armstrong Family's butler, has gathered us all here to announce something important , so we'll give him our full attention to what he was about to say.'' Miss Nam , then pull back after saying those and let Mr. Lee come in front with a smile.
"I am here to inform you that we will select some of you to accompany Lady Rebecca in her own residence as she moves tomorrow." We ask that those chosen serve Lady Rebecca with loyalty, just as we served her family. Mr. Lee explained.
But Miss Nam is translating what he was saying as he spoke in foreign language as he is a white like the Armstrong family.
Everyone was perplexed as to why Lady Rebecca would travel when she and Lord Maurer had not yet married. Who would accompany her and where would she go?
Miss Nam whispered into Mr. Lee's ear and he nodded but still look as strict as he is. He then spoke again,
Lady Nam translated.
"Lady Rebecca requested to live alone and peacefully in the garden mansion.
Prior to her marriage to Lord Maurer. I know you're all confused, but we're here to serve the family, not to ask questions and look into things."
''Lady Rebecca will be here to choose among you, so I request your cooperation. She is looking for someone who is not only skilled but also has a good attitude towards work, so please show your best self during the selection process.''
I literally froze when I heard what Miss Nam just said. I quickly smell my breath and armpits; it would be embarrassing if she came near me and I smelled bad. There is a possibility because my sweat from the dance had already dried in my clothes because I didn't have time to change because of this gathering.
I heard the gasps around me while I was still busy fixing myself at the back and preparing myself to see my lady. I lifted my head to see what was going on, and my legs wobbled as I was facing the goddess face, inches away from my face.
She really is beautiful She is so innocent looking , like an angel who came to earth to light the darkness in my world . But I saw something in her eyes did she just cry? It is so obvious, as it is a little reddish, like her cute nose, and her lips are so pink. I swallowed hard as she wet it with her tongue and bit her lower lip. This is the first time I have been able to observe her face this close since she came back.
When did she get here? I didn't even notice her arrival. She was looking at me from head to toe. I am a little insulted that she does that from head to toe. I am a little insulted that she does that. Her eyes, which used to be vibrant before, are now like a dead person's eyes, and they're full of pride.
We are still looking at each other's faces, but I am more focused on her blue-grey, as it really looks like a sky. I saw how the black hole in her eyes dilated.
"It's beautiful," I whispered as I concentrated on her eyes, but she pulled away from me.
She rounded me up, questioning my existence on earth.
Embarrassed, I looked down, gripping both sides of my servant's clothes. My hair stood up as she leaned her face into my neck. I thought she was going to bite, but I was surprised when she sniffed my neck, and I got so weak from what she just did.
She acted like she was going to puke, and I feel mad about it. She's looking down on us; she is like the other elite people who see servants as trash. But maybe I just misjudged her about this matter, so I didn't bother about it, and she is the daughter of the people who pay us to so I dont have the power to object.
''When did you last take a bath?'' She said it with a hint of an insulting smirk on her lips while looking at me I didn't understand it, but I felt like I'd been insulted, as I saw disgust in her face. I glared at her but controlled myself as I saw my mother also glaring at me.
''Hahaha. wooh, you scared me. I thought you were punching me. '' She acted shocked and put her hands in her mouth. She's wearing white gloves; that's what I noticed just now.
''Are you threatening me, servant?'' She whispered in my ear. I don't know why , but I don't like what she's doing to me now. I turned to look at her, and she had a mischievous smile on her face. It made me wonder what she was up to.
She left my side and went to other servants and selected them without doing anything like she did to me. I think she doesn't like me; it's a good thing I don't want to serve such a brat kid. I may kill her myself.
'' Is that all, my lady ? You won't have any competition or test their skills before selecting?'' Mr. Lee asked her, but she just shook her head. I don't understand what they are talking about in the front, but I think the selection is over. I can finally get out of this place. I just feel so drained knowing that the person I have admired most all these years has a demon inside . It feels like the world came to a dark pitch as I saw her real identity as a demon, not an angel at all. I need to find a way to move on from this disappointment and not let it consume me. It's time to focus on finding positive role models who align with my values and beliefs. I might have just filled my head a lot of fantasy about her creating a person in my head which is so far from reality.
After the selection, everyone went to their respective tasks. I was about to get out too when" Freen," Miss Nam called me."Miss Nam" I said as I was able to face Miss Nam."Your presence is ordered in Lady Rebecca's room right now."
"What?''
''You are selected by Lady Rebecca as her personal maid; you're to be with her all the time, and your task starts now as she requested you to start serving her now.'' Miss Nam explained.
''No.'' I said it immediately as I heard what she just said.
'' There is nothing you can do as we are all pleading with her not to complain, Freen. And you must be thankful that being her personal maid gives you a high chance of getting promoted as a chief servant someday. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It was disheartening to know that the only way to get ahead in this household was through manipulation and submission.
I just nodded my head and didn't question more. I don't want to ruin my mother's trust in me.
