The bullet landed perfectly on the apple, bursting it into pieces. Paris was left dumbfounded along with Kai's friends.

On the other hand, Kai was proud of herself and let out a short chuckle. She placed both of her hands on the sides of her hips and said, "Come on, let's drink some coffee guys. Paris, prepare it and bring it to the living room when you're done. Don't make us wait for too long." She reminded before heading out with her friends.

Paris silently strolled around the mansion, until she finally reached the kitchen. She let out a deep sigh, holding herself against the kitchen counter, her legs shaking. She was still trying to process what just happened. Her heart was still pounding rapidly. It has been such a long time since she has felt this frightened.

She placed the empty tray on the sink, and splashed some water on her face. That bullet could've really cost her life. She was lucky to be still alive.

With a trembling hand, she took out a pack of cigarettes that were inside the tuxedo, and placed one on her mouth. She had brought them with her to smoke whenever she had time, and right now she really needed one.

Paris sighed deeply once again, trying to compose herself back to normal. She then took out the lighter and switched it a few times until the flame brushed the cigarette and turned it on.

Just when she was about to relax, she heard some footsteps in the distance coming closer to the kitchen. She knew that smoking inside the mansion was prohibited. Therefore, she swiftly threw the cigarette inside the trash can that was next to her.

"What are you doing?" It was Kai the one that had come.

"I'm making the coffee. Didn't you ask for that?" Paris responded.

"Why are you taking so long then? Do you even know how to use the machine?" Kai came closer to her.

"Yes, yes. I can do it myself. You can leave now. I'll bring the coffee in a moment." Paris turned her around, pushing her out of the kitchen.

"What is that burning smell then?" Kai sniffled the smell of smoke coming from the kitchen.

"It's probably roasted coffee. Now, leave." Paris kept pushing her out.

"Will you stop pushing me already?" Kai pulled her away, and turned back around to face her. Her eyes spotted the black tie on Paris' uniform that she didn't notice from before. "What's this? Why are you wearing a tie? This is supposed to be only for the male uniform."

Paris, "Does it really matter now? You didn't say anything about it before. Why are you complaining about it now?"

Kai, "I'm not complaining. I'm just asking. To be honest, it doesn't look bad on you."

Hearing this, Paris eyes widened slightly. She was never expecting for Kai to compliment her like this. She thought that Kai would probably force her to take it off, but on the other hand, she did the complete opposite.

"What did you say?" Paris wasn't sure if she heard right.

Before Kai could even answer her, the fire alarmed suddenly started, and the fire emergency sprinklers from the ceiling turn on, soaking both of them with water.

"Shit!" Paris exclaimed as she got on top of the kitchen counter, trying to cover the sprinklers with her hands, but water kept gushing down at them.

"What the fuck! What have you done, Paris?! My house is flooding!" Kai shouted furiously.

Butlers, maids, and bodyguards quickly came to fix the problem. It turns out that the cigarette burned some papers that were inside the trash can, causing a small fire. Paris was still scolded, and as a punishment, she had to do one hundred push-ups in her soaked clothes, along with watching a thirty minute video of the rules of the house for her to memorize. It was a terrible first day already.
