Baldwin's Mansion
Joke. As if they were really kidding me, that's how it felt right now. Earlier today, Ana contacted me to let me know that the broker texted her that he would contact me soon, so I left the house to go to the mansion, and so I was waiting in the patio for my last hope.
Besides moving, I have to arrange a few things before leaving the house, and in that regard, I don't think I have much time left, so everything must be done fast.
After waiting for a while, I heard some sounds and saw a huge dog, quite in the distance, with a leash over his neck and a man controlling it, and then the dog moved a little from the distance and I could see what it was. The dog was muscular, stocky, and had a large square head and deep chest. It had a face that was difficult to describe.
I don't know why he stared at me so intensely, but it felt dangerous. He began barking at me, I getting confused looked here and there to see if I got it wrong but no, he was barking at me and for what reason I didn't know, but soon a man in black started patting him, I looked at the person's face, he was Elijah, and he knows how to handle dogs. He soon left with the man he came with.
When he was about to leave, I called out "Elijah" and stepped out of the patio. "Yes, Mrs. Miller," he replied when I reached him. "I didn't know this mansion had a dog?" I wondered as I looked at the dog. "Yes, it's Boss's favorite pet" I nodded, so I better stay away from it.
Hesitatedly I stood at my place. I did not know how to phrase it and if I was asking the right question to the right person, so yeah I was hesitant. "Say away, whatever it is, Ms. Miller" he assured me, so I spoke "Um... do you perhaps know of any apartments that are available anywhere?" That was stupid of me to ask him, since he lives here, and I don't think he needs to leave it and look around the properties.
I'm not saying this in a negative way, but I believe this mansion is equipped with everything that people would need at any time, so yeah, that was obvious, but I still had an expectation that he might know anything about this, "I don't think I have anything like this in my knowledge." Despite knowing this, I wanted to try out. I pressed my lips until he said something. "I do have a good idea," he added.
I gestured him to continue, "Why don't you just stay here?" What? Stay at this huge mansion? With so many men around? , that's not something I'll do, "Oh no, that would be so inconvenient for all of you", he said again, "Think about it, you visit the mansion every day for Mr Baldwin, right?" I nodded in agreement.
"And it takes some time to reach in this only mansion, sometimes you even get late, and it's not good, if you stay here you will find many things convenient for you and only you". He continued, "I'm not saying you should move here forever, but for the time being, as long as you are treating Mr. Baldwin".
In my mind, I just thought about the scenario, and the reason he gave me was so much that I could not deny it. In truth, I do want things in my favor so that I can have a smooth drive here, but sometimes it gets too late for me to go home, which leaves Theo all on his own. Having us here will be comfortable for us and I can be assured about Theo, "Think about it" and he walked away, leaving me with questions. Should I move into the mansion?
Having sat in Mr. Bladwin's room for a few minutes, I was wondering why I couldn't get a single house for myself? Okay so, just a few minutes ago our broker sent me a message and said that he couldn't lend the house due to personal reasons. Is this a joke? It seemed that everyone was against me. Literally every single of them gave me one fucking reason "Personal reason" I chuckled in frustration.
As I said, everyone, trust me every single one, and I had this weird feeling about this. Why would they all seem suspicious to me? Something sure seems suspicious, but I am unable to explain it. As I was lost in my thoughts, the door of the room opened, and I tuned my gaze to the direction, and there was a tall Man standing at the entrance of the room, it was Blaze standing all tall without moving, he then stepped into the room, and stood in front of me. He stared at me, "Savannah" I blink my eyes, "Yes." It confused me but made me feel more uneasy since his gaze was intense not in an angry way, but more concerned.
"Are you okay?" He then asked me? Why? I don't remember anything happening to me. "I'm absolutely fine" I then questioned "Why would you ask that?" because it didn't make any sense to me, "I heard Ace bark at you" Ace? Bark? Ah, that dog's name is Ace, and I got one more thing, "Yaah, he just barked, he didn't do anything else."
He was talking about what happened with the dog when I was in the patio, but I wondered how he knew this. When he struck me, I asked him, "How did you find out about this?" I had my instinct active "Elijah told me", he replied. I nodded in understanding, Did he really need to do that? "I am sorry Savannah" he apologized for the way the dog behaved? "You don't have to Blaze, he's a dog, he's going to do that eventually" I reasoned with him.
"Well he shouldn't have" as he said that, I looked at him again, not for what he said but for the tone in which he said it. It was unusual for him to speak in that tone, it was slow, yet dangerous at the same time, and I wondered if I was the only one who heard it, "Are you sure you're fine" I replied, "Yes, Blaze, I'm fine" I won't lie, it was nice to have someone be concerned about me after such a long time, it warmed my heart, but I do not know in what way I feel warm.
"You're on hunt for new place?" I looked at him and "Elijah told me that you asked him" he replied without asking, "Yeah, my landlady gave me a two-week notice to vacate the house and I haven't been able to find one." I told him some basic things, as we sat in the living room having a cup of warm tea who's cup looked golden plated, because earlier he had offered, then a thought popped in my head, so I turned to him.
"You must know if there is any vacant apartment or house available?" I asked him, and he chucled before sipping his cup of tea "Savannah, I work for myself in the medical industry, so I'm not sure if I know any." I looked down at my tea disappointed, all the hope was gone, "but I will try to find some information for you" I looked up in hope again. "Thank you so much Blaze" I thanked him, I will always be grateful to him if he helps me.
