On The Other Side

[Chapter 2] Youngest Molan

The first thing that Beacrox saw upon entering the portal, was a huge pond under a bridge that goes to the gazebo. His eyes look up on the surrounding area and found out that they are on the garden. Colorful flowers and different kind of florals greeted them. They stood at a round flatform made of glass besides the five layered fountain.

If they didn't cross the portal and saw the surrounding area you might have misunderstood that they were still at their former world. But seeing the structures and different types of buildings on the area it is a proof that they are on a different world.

Upon seeing his previous servant's reactions, Cale chuckle. They are at the garden of his mansion. The glass flatform was Pinpoint of the portal from his previous world.

They had gathered their things and Cale lead them inside. The father-son duo took in their surroundings and gaped. They are indeed cross from a different world seeing the unfamiliar structure of the house that day where in.

"Young master, are you alone in this house?" Ron asked. Considering that a large house greeted them, he doubt that the Young Master can manage it alone. It was not as large as the Henituse Castle or as large as his former home. But the house where they were brought was undeniably lavish for a nobles taste.

Cale shook his head and answered.

"No, I don't. I have a caretaker here and she oversees the house in my absence. She's my maid and she takes care of me. I trust her as much as I trust you."

The father and son look skeptical but they decided against it.

"How long do you know her?" Ron asked.

"A month after mother's death. I met her when my uncle brought me here since I'm emotionally unstable that time and needed distraction. She was originally from our world but she died." Cale opened a huge glass sliding door and went inside.

The father-son duo followed, their eyes scanning the surrounding.

"So this is the lounge room." Cale said as he tapped the Chesterfield sofa. "It was near the garden since I want my visitors to enjoy the view outside and I always spend my free time here."

The room was decorated with Chesterfield sofa and two Settee surrounding a glass tabletop. Not far from it was a sixty inch C-shaped television attached from the wall. A modern chandelier hanging on the center of the room.

"That thing on the wall is called Television. Think of it as a Communication device from our world but more enhanced. It is an object of entertainment on this world. You can watch any kind of things in it."

Every time they walked by on a certain room, Cale would always explain the things that the Molan duo was foreign at. He was patient explaining everything that they asked a question about something. Until they heared a clinking sound at the direction that Cale told them was supposed to be the kitchen. It was a double door and one of the door was ajar.

Cale's footsteps clacks on the marble floor and he went to the kitchen.

The red head look back at them and smiled.

"I'll introduce you to my caretaker." As he said that, he opened the door making the kitchen in their full view. Not from away from them was an older woman, holding a rag as she rubbed the rim of the wine glass.

The Molan duo stood frozen at the door.

It might've been so long. The wrinkly eyes, grey hair and aged face. But they would never forgot that face.

"Mom?" Beacrox uttered. His eyes look in disbelief as he stared at the woman across from the kitchen. The older woman look up and her eyes locked with the father-son duo, she smiled.
