I sighed pushing the door opening and entering the house, late as usual.
" Welcome sir ". The maid greeted bowing.
" Hmm ". I hummed heading towards the stairs. " Bring me coffee ".
" okay sir ".
I proceed to the stairs but just as I'm about to emerge, she calls me. I stopped and turned to look at her.
" Any problem? ".
" Um-sir Everette-".
My eyes widen in realization.
" Damn it ". I cursed pinching the bridge of my nose recalling the promise I made this morning. I sighed and turned back to look at her.
" Did he eat? ".
She shakes her head signifying a no.
" of course he didn't ". I mutter to myself. I waved her away telling her to get something he can eat then go upstairs going straight to his room.
" Everette ". I called pushing through door opening and entering inside. He's laid down, his, back facing me. " Um-sir are you asleep? ".
" Yes I am ". He sniffs. " Now go away ".
He's been crying.
I sighed. " I'm sorry Everette ".
