I woke up more tired than yesterday. I got up and prepared my breakfast. Then I checked on my bag only to remember that it got burned last night.
*Ring call sounds
I called her in a panic. While the phone is waiting to be answered, I checked the time and noticed that it was 7:30 in the morning. I thought that she must be more tired than I am and decided to call her later so I hang up.
I continued to make a simple breakfast. I cooked some eggs and toast the bread. After cooking, I turned on the tv and checked out the news.
It was normal news like the weather updates, or some guy being awarded for returning a lost handbag that has 500,000 dollars. So, after eating everything I made, I started to clean the mess I made.
It took me a while and sat down on the sofa. Thinking on what to do, the door bell ringed.
*KLING!
I checked the cameras and saw her. Sofia on her casual dress.
"I know you are there. Open this door or else…" She said jokingly.
I went along with her joke saying "Or else what? Gonna beat me up?"
Now that I think about it, she can do that. So immediately said "I was jok-"
Before I finished my sentence, she forced herself in. She looked pissed. While she looks smiling, she isn't.
I am screwed. I have to calm her down. I thought of what to appease her anger… I can't think of anything. So I did this.
"I am sorry. How about a breakfast?" I know. I am gonna be beat up so bad now… not.
"Do that. And you owe me as well for this." She said.
Phew! I thought I would see the heaven right now. Can't believe it worked. Either way, I did what I promised and served her a breakfast.
I remember what she said that she ate, A sandwich with bacons. So I did it.
Anyways, she is just watching me cook and I was done.
"Here you go, a breakfast sandwich." I said proudly.
She just quietly nodded and started to eat.
*Nom nom
She is eating happily the food I made. Now that I think about it, where did she go after her mansion got burned to the ground?
I will ask her after eating. And I have a feeling that this is going to be a long, long day.
She continue to munch on the sandwhich I watch her do so but stop and thought of grabbing a glass of water for both of us.
I filled 2 cups and gave one to her. The other one is mine.
"So… how are you? Where did you sleep last night after that?" I asked.
"Well, as soon as you left, my dad sent a butler to pick me up and let me rest for the night. I followed and got to a hotel." She said.
I nodded. She stopped for a bit and then continued to munch on them.
I decided to let her finish the meal before we continue. For a while, she looks sad then gulped down the water I gave.
"Thanks for the meal."
"No problem. Here, let me clean the dishes first. Then we will continue." I grabbed the plates and glass and started to clean them on the kitchen.
While, I was cleaning, she started to talk.
"I am sorry again for what happened. I already asked wilfred to replace both bags and the materials burned that was included."
"Y-yeah, no problem with that. So, about the things last night. Care to explain more?"
"Umm… I suppose you deserve about that too. I will break a promise I made to your dad…."
I guess dad is involved. I mean dad have brought some stuff home from his adventures. I remember a necklace that has a fang or tooth tied to it. What the hell are you doing all this time dad?
"First of all, we seekers are not really united as one. Think of it as 2 major cities and there are several villages around them. There are 2 main groups per se. One of the main group is called red eyes. I do not know much about them but all I know is that they are a cult of sorts. Trying to re awaken a being called the "Red star". This being will bring us to a new generation, or so they say."
"The other main group is the sapphire star. I do not know the reason behind the name but, the group is made to collect all spirits or safely hide them away from the any evildoers. You can think of them as a peace bringer."
"The other groups are small… or well, does work for their interests rather than helping."
"What about my dad?" I asked.
"Well, your dad belongs to the sapphire star. He is friends with the president of the organization. Although you cannot meet the president ofthe organization just because you are his son."
Well, there goes that one.
"I guess I will have to work from bottom to the top? How do I join?"
"I can't. I will not let you join in this dangerous world because of my carelessness. I messed up once, and I would not mess up again."
"Quite the opposite. The moment you explained all of those things, you messed up real hard already. You know me sofia. "
"Dad is going to be very upset about this."
She reached for her pocket and called his dad. While she is busy talking on the phone, I started to bring the necklace dad gave to me. I have a feeling that it is one of those thingys where those spirits resides in.
When I came back, sofia just closed her phone and sighed deeply.
"Dad asked me to bring you there."
S-sure…?
