At that moment, when the young man finally returned to his senses, he couldn't stand still. This is the first time he's been so agitated and scared at the same time. He wanted to snuck in the house to see what's she's doing but he was afraid he might make the situation worst.
"What should we do? What should we do?"
"What if something happened to the young miss inside?"
"My god. Please stop saying terrifying things like that. I don't want to die yet."
"Then, what should we do?"
Everyone were standing in front of the entrance as though they were broken robots, walking back and forth and almost losing their mind. The only one who stood motionless like a rooted tree was Yijin, who was currently at his deepest mode of meditation. As if he was quietly calculating a certain problem that might cost him his life if he fails to solve it.
Meanwhile, Davi locked herself in her room. She looks serious as ever, scribbling something in her note, as if she was a military general planning a legendary siege of a certain impenetrable castle.
Not noticing that it was already dark, she continued working diligently. And when she felt hungry, she finally stood to get some food. However, to her surprised, the butler, the maids, and her body guard, Yijin were all standing like punished little kids just outside the closed door. They look tired and helpless, as if they've been standing there for hours. Realizing the situation, Davi's mouth instantly hanged opened and guilt flashed across her eyes.
Truth was that, Davi locked the doors to show them she's upset, although she knew they can open it whenever they wanted. Well, she really was upset, she thought it was impossible for them not to have Sei's number especially Yijin. However, she soon realized that Sei might had ordered them not to give it to her, upsetting her even more.
But even though she's upset, she never meant to do this, she didn't think they'll act like this at all. She's aware they're just following orders. Why did they not open the door? Why did they stayed outside? Gosh, what have I done?
She then hastily walked towards the door and opened it. At that moment, the maids and the butler broke into tears, shocking her even more. She froze as she looked at them. They looked really worried and her heart clenched.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do this," she said looking troubled, causing all of them to shook their heads.
"No, no, young miss. It's our fault." They said and Davi could only hugged them and comforted them.
"I'm fine, okay? I'm just a bit upset. Stop crying, it'll break my heart." Her words were like angel's voice that calmed their hearts and their worries disappeared instantly. They were also overjoyed for they didn't expect the miss to comfort them with hugs and sweet words.
After that, everything was settled smoothly and joy overtook the maids and butler's face as they left.
Except of course, for the young man who was looking tense ever since Davi opened the door. He looked like an extremely troubled soldier who just made a big mistake of sending a false alarm to his superior and that there's no way for him to undo it.
Noticing his unusual expression, Davi faced towards him.
"What's wrong?" she asked and the young man looked heavenward for a moment then looked at the ground. Making Davi even more curious.
"I-I'm sorry miss," he said softly and Davi could only smile as he patted his shoulder as if she's telling her to calm down, leaving him a bit dumbfounded.
"I said it's okay. Anyone can be upset every now and then you know? And I'm no saint or something okay?" Davi was trying to ease his obvious worry. "Don't worry, I'm not angry or anything with you. This is all Sei's fault for being so mean. I'll beat him when he's back," she continued as she pouts.
Her words somehow made the young man felt better instantly and her, saying things like she'll beat him, immediately cracked him up and he smiled. No one ever dared to say things like that to Sei his master, and was still living fine. There's no one other than her.
