the books

Chapter 3

I saw a door again and I opened it without a doubt because I really wanted to catch a maid. But like before, there was no one there, but I looked at the contents of the room, because the contents were full of books, it looked like I went to a library.

I only finished senior high and even then I love to read books so I was very happy to see something here. I went inside to look at the books but first I turned on the light because it was dark inside.

When I turned on the light, I didn't plan to remove the books from the bookshelf, I was just reading the titles and I don't know what the other titles were, but I can only say one thing about the business. I noticed that it doesn't seem to be cleaned because almost every bookshelf has dust.

I went to the far end of the room and I suddenly saw a title in a different language and because I was curious I tried to take it but when I removed it I heard a metal sound I don't know what but it seemed like a padlock had been unlocked.

My hand just stayed on the book until I suddenly felt the movement of the bookshelf and out of surprise I tried to push it hard but I didn't expect it to suddenly spin and carry me.

I fell down on the floor I went to and I was almost scared because I thought it was a trap but when I raised my head I saw a very clean room and I saw a glass cabinet with toys. I looked behind me and saw the bookshelf I saw earlier.

I was about to get up to go back when I suddenly heard something fall on my side which made me immediately turn around, but I didn't expect that there was a man there and I could see his surprise as he looked at me and so did

I was shocked looking at the man on my side because this man is the youngest son of the Chairman that I saw outside earlier. He is Mike Go, whom Camille and I were just talking to earlier.

I was surprised when he suddenly screamed so I stood up quickly to cover his mouth.

"Please, don't... I'll relax." I'm begging you. But he didn't listen because he was trying to remove my hand from his mouth, he was also trying to scream but because my hand was covered, he couldn't do it.

"Hmm! Mmm!" He struggled until we were both rocking and luckily I was on top of him so I still covered his mouth.

"Can you be quiet first and don't be naughty. I'll explain." Weak but annoyed I said.

He just continued to struggle until he almost removed my hand from his mouth. "Hel Uhmm."

"Aish! I didn't come here on purpose, I knew I was in the library and then suddenly I came here. Please... listen first!" I said apologetically.

I looked around and saw that there was a window there that was open. All I know is that we are only on the 1st floor so I'm sure I can go there.

I first looked at the man on top of me and he seemed to notice my plan so he suddenly grabbed my arm.

I'm annoyed. "Let me go!" I said because I can't leave if he keeps holding me.

It shook its head in response. So I felt even more annoyed, after a while we heard footsteps outside the room so we both looked at each other and because of what we heard, he struggled even more while I was nervous because there might be a misunderstanding as to why I was here.

I had no choice but to violently pull my hand that he was holding, I was lucky that he let go of me so I had a chance to escape but even before I got close to the window someone grabbed my hand I looked to see if it was holding and I saw Mike

"Hey thief and where are you planning to go?" Mike asked angrily, but because there was no time to explain because he was still in a state of shock, I knew he wouldn't listen.

I violently pushed him to make him sit on the floor and let go of me and that was my reason to go to the window and just as I jumped, the room door opened.

"Hey!--" I heard Mike shout when I got out of the room. I didn't waste any more time and ran away.

Listen! What happened?

I just kept running and when I felt like I was far away, I stopped to rest. I can feel my body weakening due to fatigue and hunger.

I looked around and raised my eyebrows slightly when I noticed that I was in the garden. I didn't expect to be able to get here, all I wanted to do was find my aunt's room, but it's okay than inside where I almost got lost.

I was about to walk when I heard a shout from behind me and I just got worried when I saw Mike again.

"What I said is true! There really is a thief in my room! He suddenly penetrated the wall! Then when I tried to scream, he suddenly covered my mouth!"

"Aish!! That's annoying!" I panicked and walked and looked for a place to hide because I didn't want to be caught because I might get fired right away, I haven't even started work yet it looks like I'll be fired.

I really hope he doesn't remember my face. With the number of maids here, it might be impossible, but I hope so.

When I was looking for a place to hide, I found a small hut. I immediately went there to hide, when I got to the door it was not locked so I quickly entered. When I entered, I immediately noticed many more paintings and drawings.

While looking at the drawing, I didn't pay attention to the one in the middle and there was someone calmly painting. He immediately looked at me when he noticed and we just stared at each other. He was just looking at me boringly while I had shock in my eyes because I was familiar with his face, He is Rio Go, the second to last son of the Chairman.

My God! If earlier I saw the eldest, then the youngest now.

While I was still thinking about my excuse for why I was here, I heard Mike's voice outside.

"Why don't you believe me!? What I said is true! It's annoying!" This is outside.

Because of the panic, my body moved spontaneously to hide in a Box that was very wrong, I saw a few paintings but that was not an obstacle so I could not hide.

Later, while hiding, I heard the door of the hut open. "Brother Rio, have you seen a girl, ummm.. we seem to be the same height, but she is white, has pony hair and wears a gray shirt?" I heard it described to me and I just bit my lip because of it.

'Oh my god!'

I almost lost my breath waiting for Rio's answer because it was a few seconds before he spoke. "I don't see you anymore.." He replied lazily which surprised me because he didn't report me.

"Uhh! It's annoying! I've been holding him for a while now! Surely that won't fix it!" I heard Mike's words and a few moments later I heard the door close.

I didn't leave my hiding place until someone opened the lid of the box and that's when I saw Rio who opened it.

"He is gone." He said and turned around to return to his place earlier.

I got up slowly to be sure and when I was sure, I voluntarily left the Box. When I came out, I looked at Rio who was doing what he was doing and it was as if nothing had happened.

I immediately bowed down to say thank you. "Thank you.." I said after a few moments, he just looked at me for a moment before doing what he was doing again. I just scratched my head because I thought I was bothering him.

I was about to turn my back to go out when he suddenly spoke. "If I were you I would stay here first."

I was surprised by what he said so I looked at him, I was just going to ask why but he spoke right away. "I know Mike, he won't stop looking until he gets tired." He added.

ZURI's POV

"You're good at drawing..." I pointed out from behind Rio.

He was drawing a woman and I didn't know who it was because he wasn't answering my questions because he was drawing quietly.

I think I've been here for a few hours inside the hut and I'm just watching him draw and what he's copying is on his cellphone. The woman is very beautiful and looks like a model.

He was right in what he said that Mike will not stop looking for him because I think he has come back here five times to say what he asked earlier. I'm still like that, I'm going back to the box to hide and maybe I'll give up because I'm turning my back on him and I'm bothering Rio.

But even though I'm messing with him, it's like I'm invisible here because he won't even speak. But it's okay because he didn't report me to Mike.

Because of boredom, I took out a drawing book and looked at the drawings and I was just wowed by the beauty of the work. I have anime that I see and to make them realistic, I only see artists once because they seem so vague that it is amazing to see Rio's work in person.
