Jennie

The maid's arms and legs had bloody cuts on them; huge, ghastly, and definitely not self-inflicted. I watched on in horror as her body continued to swing from side to side. I needed to compose myself before I walked out of the barn. Lucas and Lisa were still waiting outside for me, and I needed to report this to Nichkhun.

When I backed out of the barn, my body collided against Lisa, who stood at the entrance, staring at the lifeless body stoically as if the scene before her didn't bother her at all.

"Lisa, come with me." I told her.

She didn't react to what I'd said, so I had to reach out for her hand and pull her out of there. I felt chills all over my arms as the scene kept playing in front of my eyes. I shut the door of the barn door behind me and told Lucas to call Nichkhun immediately.

"Why? What's in there?" He asked. His curious green eyes reminded me so much of Nichkhun. Lucas was like a miniature version of him, and Bambam looked similar to Lisa.

"Nothing." I answered carefully. I didn't need the child's curiosity to be piqued, when what was in the barn would be his nightmares that will plague him for the rest of his growing years.

"I want to see too!" He argued.

"Lucas, I really need you to go inside the mansion and call your brother. Please."

"Well, you can't order me around." He said, and his tone surprised me. "This is my house. And you're just another maid."

"I'm a caretaker, not a maid. There's a difference. And even if I was a maid, that's not the way to speak to someone much older than you."

"I can speak to you in whatever manner I deem fit! And what I want right now is to see what's inside that barn!" He screeched like the bratty kid that he is.

I was thankful to be recruited as a caregiver for Lisa and not Lucas; it was no wonder the boy didn't have a nanny. He would have probably insulted them left and right, all day long.

"Lucas, apologise." Lisa said softly.

Lucas' lips were pursed, but there was something in Lisa's tone that subdued the ultra-bratty mouth of his.

"Sorry." He said and ran towards the lawn. Love followed after its little master.
