„Let's start... Your... master never taught you how to write, I suppose?", he asked.
I shook my head. I never even held a pen in my hand before... „Don't worry, I'll teach you." I wonder how.
He approached me slowly and put a pen on my table.
While I eyed it he positioned himself behind me and took the pen in one hand and my hand in his other.
„You hold the pen like this..."
While placing the pen in my hand his hair brushed against my cheek. I inhaled his scent; it was so very sweet.
He let go of my hand and the pen fell back on the table. „Try it.", he said calmly.
Wrapping my fingers clumsily around the pen the way he showed me; it was difficult to manage but I did it.
„Good." He moved closer to me and put his hand around mine again.
He also put a sheet of paper in front of me and lowered my hand down on the paper, making the pen touch it and dragged it along.
„And this is how you use it.", Sebastian then let go of my hand. „I will first teach you the alphabet and then we can move on to complete words."
The slender butler then proceeded in teaching me what he referred to as the „alphabet".
I wonder whether I'll ever be able to speak...

~Three hours later~

The tall black-haired man sighed. „I think this is enough for today. I have to prepare the breakfast for the young master."
He had taught me the alphabet quite quickly. Even though my writing was still very shaky I got the hang of it.
„I don't know what to do with you at the moment so you can either stay in your room or drink tea with Tanaka."
I furrowed my brows upon hearing that name. „Oh, I will show you who Tanaka is.", he smiled.
I watched Sebastian wiping the white chalk off of the black board, clapping his hands together afterwards.
„Alright. I have to leave.", he smiled the same fake smile and left the room. I got up from my chair and dragged my fingers along the desk – slowly.
The butlers clean scent still lingered in the room. I inhaled it slowly and immediately felt at rest, I don't know why.
Leaving the room I strolled through the many floors, eventually getting lost.

I passed a door and stopped to listen to the noises echoing from it. I heard someones voice shouting and the noise of pots hitting against each other,
followed by the same voice shouting loudly once again. In a matter of seconds there was a loud bang and the door flew against the wall,
smoke filling the hallway. I had held my hands over my ears which were still throbbing with pain due to the bang.
Just what happened just now? I asked myself and peeked into the smoke-filled room. A loud coughing reached my ears.
„God damn it! I was so sure this would work!" Bard.
I stepped on a broken plate and the 'chef' turned his head towards me and grinned. „Oh hello!", he tried to get up.
„I kinda fucked up here, Sebastian will get really angry..."
Right after he said that the butler entered the room.
„I will not even ask you how the hell you managed to blow up the kitchen once again.", he said slowly after inhaling.
Silence.
„What on earth are you doing, lazily sitting on the floor. Get up and clean the room. I'll cook."
I could hear a bit of annoyance in his voice. „Yes, sir", Bard said while grinning.
It didn't take very long until Sebastian fixed everything and the kitchen looked presentable again. „Wow, amazing Sebastian!" Bard shouted.
The tall butler staged the same smile which he did few days back.

It was so flawless, so mysterious...

After a while I left the room again to continue my search for Tanaka.
Some time later I walked past a row of huge windows and stopped. I saw a guy, his name was Finny, I think.
I watched him as he fidgeted around with the plants in the gigantic garden. All of a sudden he grabbed a tree which was in the middle of all these plants and in a matter of seconds he carried the tree on his shoulder. Just how strong is he...? He continued to rip out one tree after another.
As I wanted to walk on I saw Sebastian appearing outside walking towards Finny, seemed like he was scolding him.
Wondering how he got there so fast I walked past another floor until I saw the red-headed maid, picking up some kind of cloth.
She turned around to look at me and slipped on the ground, falling backwards and letting go of the basket filled with white cloth.
There was a loud bang when the maid hit the flood as she ripped several items off of the shelf.
The cloth was scattered all over the floor with the red-haired woman laying inmidst of the chaos.
I approached her and reached out my hand in order to help her up. She smiled and thanked me while grabbing my hand
but as clumsy as she was she slipped one more time, pulling me with her which resulted in me hitting my head on the edge of a big white device.
I groaned and fell flat on the floor and my surroundings slowly became blurrier and blurrier until my eyes finally closed.

Kitty... Hey kitty..."
Whose voice is that?
„Hey... Won't you play with me for a while? I'm so lonely... My dear kitty..."
No... No... Make it stop...
„Why aren't you obeying me?! You already know what you're suppoused to do!"
Daniel.
What's going on.
He is supposed to be dead so why is he haunting me now.
I could feel his slender hands touching me all over my body, making me cringe and twitch – I felt sick.
No, no...
Don't touch me!
No more!
But he didn't listen no matter how much I twisted and turned my body.
Sebastian.
Help me.
Please.
Cold sweat started to run down my skin.
I was trembling and shaking and finally reached out my hand.
Sebastian!"
