I GOT CLOSER WITH Lino, Adie, and father Laurence as I got to know them better in the manor. I grew to enjoy their company and understand our differences. As for master Claudio, our relationship has not changed. He made it clear that we are nothing but master and butler, so that is how I have been treating him ever since.
It's been two months since the time he told us about our roles here at the manor. During those times, he taught us everything we know that's according to our roles. While doing so, he also continued his sessions with Winter as promised.
We seldom visit the town, and that's only when the master has to attend a party. Once a week he also leaves the manor to go to the hospital that he works for in the city. He has yet to bring any of us there because none of us know what hospital he works for.
Other than that, it's also been two months since he last touched me. I do things for him and we'd visit his mansion, but I don't ask him to do anything for me like before. I usually just go to my room and go to sleep. Master Claudio doesn't mind though because he never forced me to do anything; he doesn't even ask me. It just goes to show how little he cares about such things.
Master Claudio is the type of man who will embrace you if you asked. As long as you have a hole he can stick his dick in, and as long as you keep quiet and don't ask questions, he'll do it for you.
I'm not disappointed though, and one reason is because I have no strong connection with him whatsoever. Just because we had a one-night stand doesn't mean he's obligated to take care of me. I've learned that shit the hard way.
"Bishop," a voice calls out, and I blink and realize that I was sitting in front of the devil himself, who is currently wearing his plague doctor uniform.
"May I talk to Winter again so we can begin the session?" he asks, and I take a deep breath and nod my head before closing my eyes. The cold temperature suddenly turns hot as a bright light flashed in front of me, and when I opened my eyes, I was surprised to see Dr. Van sitting across from me, holding his notebook and pen.
It's already Wednesday? I didn't even notice.
"Good morning Dr. Van. It's a pleasure to meet you again," I greet, and the doctor nods his head to acknowledge it.
"We're still working on mapping your system, and so far I've only met three of your alters: Bishop, Alice, and Autumn. Shall we run through them again?" doctor Van asks, and I nod my head as an answer.
Doctor Van stands from his seat and approaches the small blackboard beside his desk. He pulls out the sheet that's covering it, revealing the system map that the doctor and I have made together through our sessions.
The map showed the names of my alters, who my alters are close with, who they hate, the reason why they come out, and their purpose for appearing. Surprisingly enough, because of this map, I get to understand my alters better.
"Alice has been responsive. She comes out and answers my question when we need her to. As for Autumn, she still only comes out when she has the time and strength to do so, but you get to talk to her, yes?"
"Yes."
"Good," the doctor answers as he takes a chalk and incircles something on the board. It was the word Krimson, and that alone made me shiver. The last time the doctor tried to call for him. He was asking questions that might bring him out, but Krimson never appeared. Instead, I fainted, and Dr. Van told me that I was unconscious for almost an hour.
