I sat on a chair in his study, patiently waiting for him to return. I'd taken a tour of the huge mansion and it was empty. Finding my way to his study, I decided to wait for him.
A while later, I heard the sound of the iron double arched doors that lead to the living room opening. My ears picked up his purposeful strides and the even sounds of his heartbeat. I should step out and get done with the reason for my sudden visit but I decided to surprise him and that meant waiting some more.
Moments later, I heard him approaching the study. As soon as he opened the door, I greeted him with a grin.

"Not exactly my fault. I visited at the wrong hour and had to wait to meet you".
Walking towards the desk in the home office, he slumped into one of the leather seats opposite me, clasping his hands atop the table.
"what do you want?" He asked, cutting the chase.
I liked him. Always straight forward.

smirked. He wanted a reasonable answer.
