"But Kane, my things..."
"Miss's stuff has been moved to your new place" replied Kane, walking followed by Evelyn who was still confused. When his belongings were moved, he thought.
Evelyn had thought that her room would be moved downstairs, apparently her estimation was wrong. Kane was still leading the way until they reached the backyard. Evelyn could see that their destination was a small building a few meters in front of her.
The paint of the building looks worn, the paint that was originally white is now turned yellowish due to inedible rain and scorching sun. The building was unkempt, some of its windows had already broken, plus there was no illuminating light making the building look creepy.
They've reached the door of the building, "Please enter Miss." Kane opened the fragile door until the sound of crackling from the door.
Darkness greeted the two women, making Evelyn shudder in fear, is it true that this building will be her residence, he thought.
Kane entered the building, then turned on the lights, the dim light of the lights faintly illuminating the small room. Evelyn was still standing in the doorway, looking at the room that was about to become her room, the girl wiped her tears inundated.
The room was filled with a small, worn-out closet and a small table beside it. The servant room in his house was even more luxurious than this room.
Evelyn took a deep breath, trying to keep her cries from breaking in front of Kane. Kane could see what the girl in front of him felt, eager to feel like she was helping him, but whatever the power, his master could be angry about his sassiness.
Kane bowed, "I'm sorry Miss, I can't help Miss."
"It's okay Kane." smiled at Kane. "Back Kane, I want a break." Evelyn stepped into the room.
"Alright Miss. If Miss needs anything, just call me."
"Okay, Miss, excuse me." And then leave the building.
Actually the building was a former warehouse, and was vacated a year ago because the building was already fragile. It could be at any time the building collapsed during strong winds or rain.
After Kane left, Evelyn closed the door and looked back at the room with a sad feeling. Even the bed is not provided there.
The girl closed her eyes, trying to accept all the circumstances that befell her. Then sighed deeply, trying to ease her choked cries.
"You must not be weak Elin, remember Mommy and Daddy's words that we must not be weak, you must be strong." he said.
After encouraging herself, Evelyn went through the room, looking for something that could be used as a bed. Evelyn found a thin black carpet, rolled up next to the small closet. Evelyn picked it up, then spread the carpet out in the empty space.
It seemed like it was prepared for her, the girl found a thin blanket on top of her pile of clothes in the closet.
His body was very tired, eager to rest his body before starting his heavy day tomorrow.
Before going to bed Evelyn first chanted a prayer, so that she would remain empowered by the powerful in the face of this situation.
Evelyn bent her legs, with her hands hugging her body, trying to warm her tiny body. No one can sleep like that. Sleeping on the floor only with a carpet and a thin blanket, not infrequently made Evelyn's lips tremble with cold.
