The Devil Inside The Angel

Chapter 2: Who even are you?

Robin still couldn't believe if this whole incident is real or not. He will be working as a personal chef for the man of his dreams, it felt like as if he is in a dream and the alarm clock could ring at any moment, bringing him back to the real world, at this moment he only wished for all this to be real and even if it was a dream, he wished to never wake up. Robin pinched Derek's arm, "Ouch!! man that hurts".

"I am really sorry, I'm just so happy that I couldn't believe all of this is real" Robin said with a very sorry look. "How long do we have to walk? I'm so tired" asked one of the bodyguards as he stopped to catch his breath. "Tired already old man?" Derek laughed.

After ten more minutes they all were standing at the gate of the apartment building where Derek and Robin lived. There was a look of confusion on the bodyguards' faces, as they kept starting at the apartment, Robin was confused to see their reactions, "Is there anything wrong Sir?"he asked. "Oh please don't call me that, just call me Richard. We are like co-workers. Anyways you are rich enough to buy a house , why do you live in an apartment?", "Sir, I mean Richard, I was born in a poor family,I saw my dad working all day and night just to bring food on the table, he couldn't sleep properly because he was always worried about what to bring  on the table for his wife and child next day, I realised how hard can it be to make a certain amount of money, I know I'm rich but I know the value of money and I don't wanna spend it unnecessarily" Robin's eyes teared up, "I miss my mom and dad so much, they did their best to give a happy life, and now I'm all rich and ready to give them the world but now they are not here!". Derek hugged Robin as Robin placed his head on Derek's shoulder, "It's ok! Robin" he said stroking Robin's back. Richard was really sorry for Robin, he kind of felt guilty for asking that question, "I'm really sorry Robin, are you alright?" He asked, Robin lifted up his head from Derek's shoulder and wiped off his tears, "Yea!! I'm fine, let's go and start packing".

  "Finally We are done packing!!" Richard said wiping off the sweat from his forehead with his hand, "Let me call master and ask him to come with the car near the apartment".

"Wait a minute I literally forgot that u drove to the restaurant, why did you walk all the way here Richard?" Asked Derek, "Oh well that guy thinks that I have become too lazy and I need to move my body more so he said that I should walk all the way to the apartment. That JERKKK!!" "Heh Richard calm down" Derek patted his(Richard) shoulder. Richard walked towards Derek "CALM DOWN?! That guy thinks that he owns me, he always orders me to clean his room, wash his clothes and sometimes I have to feed him, why ?? Because his hands are busy in playing games". "Geez Ok ok!!! Old man", "whom are you calling old man? I'm 29" Richard pouted. Derek leaned towards Richard "Hmm you are quite handsome but you look so old, grandpa!", Richard leaned back towards Derek as both of their foreheads touched "Who are the fuck are you calling grandpa??? You know you look like a monkey", "How dare  you grandpa you wanna fight? Bring it on!

"STOP IT!! both of you!" Robin interrupted "you guys are fighting like kids, Richard we are getting late call Mr. Bell and you Derek take care of this place and yourself I'm gonna miss you" he wrapped his arms around Derek as Derek did the same. "Ah cringe!" Richard roled his eyes. "What did you say grandpa?" Derek lifted his arm to punch him as Robin stopped him, "Stop it Derek!". Richard's phone rang, it was James, he was at the gate with his car. "Ok Robin the master is here let's go" Richard carried the luggage with him as Robin hugged Derek once more and bid him farewell. Robin, Richard and Edward got up in the car and drove away.

It was 8 pm when they arrived at James' mansion. As Robin entered the living room he couldn't believe how big it was, there was an aquarium and it has two flowerhorn cichlid, a discus and five peppermint angel fish. "Exactly how rich is this guy? Even the fishes are expensive" Robin wondered. Robin was asked to take a sit on the couch while James sat on his opposite, facing him, "Listen Robin, since you are a newbie let me explain you your work and what I like and dislike and also my allergies", "Ok sir for sure", "I don't like carrots, I'm allergic to peanuts and every morning I drink warm water with honey and Lemon and end my day with a glass of warm milk. And it will be your duty to bring my honey lemon water as well as my milk and you are gonna serve me with your hands", James held Robin's hand, "Because your hands make everything tasty". Robin quickly pulled his hand away, his cheeks became red, "Oh and don't worry about the dishes , the servants will take care of it" James added.

"Ah ok sir sure, I will do everything as u said. let me go and prepare the dinner".  Robin stood up from the couch, as he was about to leave , James grabbed his arm "And one more thing Robin, whatever you do stay away from the room at the end of the hallway upstairs, for most of the time it's locked, but just incase!" James said with a deep voice and seriousness on his face, Robin kind off felt uneasy, as well as, a bit curious about what could be there in that room. "Ok sir I won't", "you need to promise me Robin" James' grip tightened, "Sir it hurts", "I'm sorry, you go prepare dinner" he released Robin and took a deep breath as he relaxed his upper body. After having dinner Robin was in his room reading a book, it was almost midnight, he couldn't sleep, so he decided to read a book, "Aw man tomorrow I need to wake up early since Mr. Bell has a fanmeeting, and also an audition for a web series, he will leave early so I have to wake up early as well, fuck, this is giving me anxiety, I should just go for an walk, wait...but the gates are locked, I guess I will just roam in the hallway until I get tired".

Robin came to the hallway from his room. It was so quite, Robin could even hear his own heartbeat, suddenly his eyes fell on the locked door located at the end of the hallway, "Isn't this the room from which Mr. Bell warned me to stay away?" He walked towards the room, held the lock in his hand "Ah it's locked, wait I might have a hair pin, I always carry one of these incase if I lose the key to the my apartment room" as he was about to insert the hair pin into the keyhole, suddenly he felt a hand grabbing his shoulder, which pulled him away from the door

"what the fuck are you doing Robin, I told you to stay away from this room", "I'm sorry sir I just got carried away" James pinned Robin against the wall, while his one hand grabbed his (Robin) shoulder tightly, his face was close to Robin's face "Sir it hurts I'm sorry I won't do it again" a drop of tear fell from Robin's eye, "Listen Robin, don't think of yourself as anyone special just because you own a restaurant. I could buy twenty owners like you along with their restaurants, you are nothing special, I bought you, you are my slave and you should know your place" James' eyes looked really cold, Robin was really surprised to see such an expression on his face, the man whom he is with now, is nothing like the man he has seen on tv screen or fanmeets or like the man with whom he was a few hours ago "You are not the man I know, who even are you?" Robin blurted out with fear.
