OH, MY BUTLER!

CHAPTER 22

CHAPTER 22 :  THE GUILTY BUTLER!

Claude's POV:

For a couple of minutes, I stood there, staring at the door she hastily shut. I've been contemplating of forcing my feet to step away or knock hard on her door and threat her again that I'll break it into pieces if she wouldn't open it.  But my attempt of decision-making has been interrupt by a sudden cough, though I was certain that it was deliberately done by that someone. I cut my gaze on her door and looked down on those little people, only to meet their sharp and deadly stares. I've waited for them to speak up. But several seconds have passed, they just kept on staring at me and I could clearly see that they were killing me hundreds of times over on their heads. So I decided not waste time any longer.

"What?!"

"Hindi nyo po ba talaga gusto si Lady Megumi? Hindi nyo man lang ba kayang masubukan na gustuhin man lang siya?" 

"Bakit ganon po kayo kay Lady Megumi, Master Claude? Opo, isip bata siya. Opo, hindi siya nag-iisip minsan at basta-basta na lang gumagawa ng kalokohan. Opo, hindi siya katulad ng ibang eleganteng babae 'jan na maarte at mayayabang. Pero siya po si Lady Megumi. Ang heiress ng mansiong eto. Ang pinagsisilbihan natin. Paano nyo po na atim na pagsalitaan ng ganon ang dapat sana ay inaalagaan natin, lalo na po at ikaw ang butler nya?"

"Kahit na ganon po si Lady Megumi, mabait po siya at pinapasigla ang mansiong 'eto. Siya ang nagbigay kulay sa mansion na dati ay napakalungkot. Paano na lang kung umalis na si Lady Megumi dito sa mansion? Siguradong magiging malungkot na naman dito." 

They synchronously  shook their head, turn their backs at me and walk downstairs. While me, I was left dumbfounded. Those two, how did they learn to talk to me like that? In most cases, I would be irritated by their actions towards me, but now seems different. I was irritated, yes, but not to them. I was trying to set my mind to point my irritations to that silly girl, still my attempts fell hard on my face. As I see to it, I was irritated to myself. And for once and for the first time, I want to knock myself down. Why am I feeling this way? This is so strange for me. I exasperatedly took a deep breath and went down to my office. 

Infuriatingly, I sat on the swivel chair and grabbed some important documents piled in my desk. These papers are more important than her. I tried to read what is written on this goddamn piece of sh*t but something must be wrong with my brain.  I stared at it, and stared more hardly at it. 

Did I hit her below the belt? Was that too much to say to her? But if she didn't act so fool with Ms. Hamilton and toyed with her, we won't be facing this shitty problem now, would we? I can't believe she did that to one of most important individual in the company. Well, Ms. Hamilton wasn't exactly important, but her father is. Angry Ms. Hamilton, is unhappy Mr. Hamilton. So upsetting Ms. Hamilton isn't exactly a good idea for the company. And besides, I worked so hard to get a deal with Mr. Hamilton and I won't allow it to go to a waste just because of a fvcking juice. This is her fault. She deserved it. She deserved getting a blow so she would wake up and start growing up, mentally, of course. Or didn't she? Was I too hard on her? But I'm usually hard on everyone. She's no exemption.
