chapter 8

The young man walked towards him and smiled as he lowered his head while he looked at him in shock. What the hell was going on? Why were this people greeting him? Was it perhaps to let him officially welcome him to a gang or what? He thought. The man that lowered his head looked so manly and composed. Even the cloth he was clad in was far more richer than his. It looked as if he was in a very strange world under the earth.

" Welcome sir" the person said and lowered his head smiling.

Sir? He thought. All his life, he had never been addressed as a sir! He had never been respected with formalities. What the hell is going on? Have they perhaps mistaken him for someone else? He was just a commoner. A low being. A guy that was still supposed to be in the prison at the moment. A lost guy that had no hope anymore. That was whom he was. Why then would someone just come out of the blues and start to address him as what he did not know and had never heard of? He was very confused but then, it seemed as if he had no one to talk to. What exactly is this that he did not understand? How could he, a commoner be in such mansion? Never in his life did he think that he would ever come into a house like this. How and why he was being respected was what he did not understand.

" It's very nice to see you again after all these while. Everyone has been anticipating your presence, most especially HER!" He said. Everyone had been expecting to meet him? He was going crazy! He thought and frowned. The way the man stressed the word made him more confused. Who the hell is her that was being talked about? He thought as he saw the man's reaction. He looked so composed and happy as he lowered his head. Maybe the person he was referring to was not bad after all.

" Her?" He asked again.

" This way, sir!" He says and led the way while Jack followed him from behind. Why was everyone referring to him as sir?

" Why do you all address me as a sir? I mean, it's all confusing. I am just a young being. Have you met me before and…"

" Sir, we are very pleased to see you again after a very long time" The man said as they walked more deeper into the mansion while he frowned. Did he not just ask a question? What was this man talking about again? They were pleased to see him? When he did not even know them? When he had never even met them before? When all he was seeing were just new faces? He was very sure that he had never met them before. He was very sure that he had never encountered people like them before, so what the hell was he talking about? Was this how the rich mistake people as theirs when they do not even know the person? Why were they all talking in parables as if they had seen him somewhere before? He thought in bewilderment.

" Pleased to see me again? I believe that this is all a misunderstanding and …" He stopped abruptly when he almost hit something and he frowned. It was another Golden tiger sculpture. It looked so beautiful that he was already so drawn in the beauty of it. That was the extent of how much he loved art.

" Young master, it's this way and you have to be very careful" he said and smiled.

" Oh, I'm so sorry about that, I was just so caught up in it's beauty" he said and walked behind him as he looked at each rooms in awe.

" Is this the blue house?" He asked again while the man smiled. He understood his point of view. It was obvious that this man had never been in something like this even though it was his due to the kind of life he had lived. If he had not also been told that he was the one they had been looking for, he would have treated him harshly. He did not look like the young master they had been looking for.

" No, young master! This is just another mansion that is not the blue house!" He said again and smiled while he frowned. If this place was not the blue house, then where was this beautiful place and who owned it? He had always watched it in movies that such houses belonged to the mafia gangs. What if he had been abducted and he did not know? He thought.

" Did you just say mafia? You are mistaken!" The man asked and smiled while he nodded as he admired each sections of the rooms wondering if he had actually said that loud. It each had sculptures of animals of different sizes.

" Then, where are we?" He asked again.

" You will get to know later," he said and smiled as he admired the paintings of the rooms. He had never seen such colors before. Everything was just so marvellous to him. The owner of this house must have spent a lot of fortunes to get this done! He thought in awe as he admired the doors. It was not even just an ordinary glass door. Who the hell was the owner of this house? Maybe he could just connect with her and have his life changed and…

" Young master, here we are, she is waiting for you" he said and lowered his head as he left his sight.

" Wait, who…" he jolted on his words when he realized that he had long left his sight. What if he was about to be used? He did not know anyone here and he was getting so scared. He could not leave because he did not know the way back. He slowly opened the door and another shock awaited him.

" Mr precious!"
