You just finished changing erik's bed sheet, then you move to tidying up his desk, there is erik's diary opened on top of the desk, "and so depression strikes one more time, i am alone with so many friends" your heart crumbled when you read that.
Suddenly you heard foot steps, you startled and quickly close the diary. Erik took off his wet tennis shirt as he walk in, not noticing you were there. You stood there holding a basket full of his dirty laundry, try not to look at him but can't help it, "oh i'm sorry i didn't see you" he try to cover his upper body. You still in awe seeing him topless, he is so lean and tall.
"next time tell me first when you want to clean up my room" he said in a serious tone.
"I will, i am so sorry" you looking down.
"Here" he put his dirty shirt in the basket that you hold, you smile quickly and leave.
"Hey umm.. thank you for cleaning up my room" he smile awkwardly as he close the door.

You move to clean the guest house, you knock on lyle's bedroom door that half open, "hi, may i clean your room?"
"Hey magno, sure go ahead, don't mind me" said lyle while he unpacked his clothes from the duffle bag.
His room is so much less messy than erik's room, you don't know what to clean coz it's already neat, so you just vaccum the carpet floor.
"Hey magno" lyle calling you but you can't hear with the vaccum machine on, he little bit screaming this time so you could finally hear him.
"Sorry, what?" you quickly turn the vaccum off.
"I just wanna say that i'm gonna stay here for 3 days, then i have to come back to princeton" said lyle, still busy putting his clothes in the drawer.
"Do you study at princeton?" You asked.
"Yes" he looks proud.
"You must be so smart" you're amaze by him.
"Where do you want to study after highschool?"
"I really wanna go to UCLA, it's a great univ plus i wanna stay close to my fam" you talking as you clean up the window.
"Ah i see, wish you best of luck" he grab a small white rabbit stuffed toy from the drawer and hand it to you, "for you, to remind you to always smile and stay motivated".
You hesitantly took it, "thank you, you're very sweet" you smile at him as you admire the cute bunny plushy.
He smiled back and blushed.

It's 7 pm, the brothers were chilling in the guest house and you help Mrs. Menendez preparing dinner in the kitchen, she cook the main course, roasted chicken and mashed potatoes, and you making the salad. There's noise of car parking, "oh he is home" Mrs. Menendez wash her hands quickly and running outside to welcome her husband.
Mr. and Mrs. Menendez walk inside the house, chatting, you can see Mr. Menendez in a glance from the kitchen, "what a long day, i'm so tired" he take off his suit and loosen up his tie, throwing himself in the long comfy couch.
"Do you want to eat now honey?" Asked Mrs. Menendez.
"I go get changed first", he went to his bedroom upstairs. Mrs. Menendez come back to the kitchen and asked me to call the boys to eat.
You walk to the guest house, the brothers and their friend edward were chilling on the couch watching tv, they didn't notice your present so you clear your throat to get their attention, "Mr. Menendez, the dinner is ready", three of them turn their head to look at you, you look back at them awkwardly and leave the room as quickly as you can.
Lyle is catching up your steps and gave you his cheeky smile,"i told you just call me lyle" then run to the main house.
"Hey magno" Edward smile and walk pass you while erik stay walking behind you, you notice that he is the only one who doesn't look forward to have dinner.
You stay in the maid room while the menendez family were having dinner.
It was almost 10 pm when they finish eating, you go to the kitchen and wash the dishes, Mrs. Menendez bring the dirty plates from the dinning room, erik walk behind helping her "Magno, you can sleep here if you want, it's dangerous to go home late".
"thank you Mrs. Menendez" you smile at her and finish your job, you called your mom that you stay here tonight.
