"Hey, Rabbit. Come wake. Didn't you want to see X?" axton said he woke up Tia who had fallen asleep.
Tia opened her eyes slowly. After blinking a few times. As he glanced out the car window, his eyes were instantly pampered with the urban atmosphere.
"Gee... The city is very beautiful," with a big smile, Tia glanced back and forth. "Change, what building is that?"
Axton glanced in the direction Tia pointed at. "Oh, that's the city's icon. It's called the Big Tower, it's been around for 30 years."
"Big towers? Ah, right too. Papa used to take me up there. But as I recall the Big Tower isn't like that."
"Three years ago the Big Tower was renovated. No wonder it looks so different from what it used to."
"Hey, isn't that Lavita's playground, famous for its giant Ferris wheel?" this time Tia pointed to an amusement park that was already visible from afar.
"You're right."
"Gee... I want to go there," muttered Tia slowly.
But Axton can still hear the murmur. He glanced at Tia whose gaze had been shifted to other buildings. Sometimes Tia asks Axton about a number of new buildings in the city. Axton briefly explained it to Tia. Somehow he was not at all disturbed by all of Tia's questions which were like a very curious child. After driving through the city for about half an hour, the car stopped in front of a three-story house. Teo got out of the car and helped Axton down. Then it was Tia's turn to push Axton's wheelchair into the house.
"Your house is pretty fancy too. The design is more modern and futuristic," praised Tia once she saw the inside of the house. "It's not like my medieval-style house."
"You think I live on a bridge?"
"You don't like to take compliments? Very sensitive basis."
"Welcome young master. Eh? What happened to you?" ask the manager of the house or commonly called the manager Zack.
A man who is still quite young. Have several certificates of expertise that need not be doubted. He was responsible for organizing the work of other house servants and guards. In addition to the work at home, not infrequently he was also involved with a number of affairs related to Axton. Like the safety of his young master. You could say the manager Zack is the right hand Axton and most people Axton believes. Manager Zack was quite surprised to see their young master sitting in a wheelchair. And so were some of the servants behind him.
"I was just having a bad time when I met someone who suddenly grabbed me," Axton glanced at Tia who had looked away.
"What?! Attacking you? Has the attacker been reported to the police?"
"Not reported but he's promised he'll take full responsibility for his mistakes."
"He should have been responsible. By the way young master, who is this woman who came with you?" asked the caretaker Zack as his eyes fell on Tia.
"Name Tia. From now on he is my personal servant. You'll take care of the chores he'll have to do."
"Okay, young master."
"Where's Gloria?" axton diverted the conversation.
"He's in his playroom. He misses you so much."
"Take me to see him."
"Good."
Tia pushes Axton's wheelchair in the steps of Zack's manager. But Tia was a little surprised to learn that Zack's caretaker was walking up the stairs. The playroom in question was on the second floor. Tia stared at the stairs that curved upwards. Once or twice is okay to help Axton climb these stairs, but if every day? Tia won't be able to.
"Of course not. We're taking the elevator," point Axton at the elevator next to the stairs. "Would you even carry me up there?"
"How do you think you can be in the hospital? Your own walk? Your body is not too heavy. I can still carry you, but even if you are not ashamed of your subordinates" whispered Tia revenge.
Axton patted his eel. "Gosh, I forgot you she's no ordinary girl. He can help me easily."
Tia quickened her pace following the manager Zack who had entered the elevator. It didn't take long for the elevator to take the three of them up to the second floor. The elevator door opens. Tia again pushed Axton's wheelchair toward one of the rooms on the second floor. But something made Tia curious. Who are they going to meet? From her name, she looks like a girl.
"Ep... Who's Gloria?" ask Tia carefully.
"Daughter," Axton replied, making Tia flinch in shock.
"What?! I-I don't know if you're married and even have a daughter."
"I'm not married."
"Eh?" from the surprise now Tia was even confused. "Then... Did you adopt a princess?"
"Yes. I found him when he was a baby on the porch. So I decided to adopt it."
"There's so much pity. Who would abandon such an innocent baby? Lucky you were kind enough to take care of him. As an unmarried man it must be hard for you to take care of him alone. It was a huge responsibility," Tia was quite moved when she found out about it.
"Oh, do you think I'm a good-natured man?"
"Yes.." At once Tia's brain disagreed with the answer that just came out of her mouth. "No, no. Maybe for your daughter you're a good-natured father, but for me you're still an annoying guy!"
The look on Tia's face that had been touched now returned with a frown. Axton just smiled a little look at it. The caretaker Zack noticed a little unhappy with Tia's words to her young master. Tia's current status as a personal servant, it was inappropriate to speak such harshly to her own master. But what makes the manager of Zack wonder, why Axton did not rebuke Tia at all? And only this time did he see his young master willing to have that meaningless conversation. For years, Zack has been a housekeeper. He is very familiar with the habits and behavior of his young master who is quite minimal to talk about unimportant things.
Arriving at the playroom in question, the manager helped open the door. Tia pushed Axton's wheelchair into the room. He glanced there yesterday watching every corner of the room. Something is wrong with this room. The place is not like a children's playroom and also Tia did not see any children playing here. Is that little girl hiding?"
"Gloria, where are you?" call Axton.
"Father!"
