Rell's P.O.V:

I closed the fridge and resumed my exploration from the freezer.

Similar in structure but, of course, cooler.

Vegetables, ice cream, frozen yogurt, and meat compartments this time.

The difference with the fridge was one extra compartment at the bottom for ready-to-eat and frozen foods that opened like a normal drawer.

The ice cream looked imported, the vegetables looked freshly picked, the frozen yogurt was manufactured the day before yesterday, the meat products looked fresh and good enough to eat raw...

Damn!

I slowly closed each compartment, feeling really obligated to take care of everything in here with my life, all of a sudden.

Once I was done here, I walked to the last wall of the kitchen.

There were four ovens, an ice dispenser, two microwaves, three dishwashers which were all, for some reason, black like most of the house.

The dishwashers, apparently, were specified for different utensils; cutlery, crockery, and glasses.

I felt out of place as I moved on and poked around a little more.

There was a cereal dispensing machine for different types of cereal... even an oatmeal slot.

There was a candy vending machine for any type of candy I could think of.

I had to have some gummy bears so I took one of the plastic bowls and filled it halfway with gummy bears.

The next thing I found outstanding was the beverage machine. It had coffees, teas, and even ice teas.

My interest though was still on the candy machine.

I walked back to it and added some mints to my bowl.

Yeah, weird combination, I know, but I could care less.

Moving on...

I went opening and closing kitchen drawers, occasionally stopping to check out the design on a piece of cutlery.

-

The plates, the spoons, the cups all had golden flowery designs on them. They were perfectly arranged as well, making me feel bad for taking them out of their drawers in the first place.

When I was finally satisfied with the scrutiny I had done for the kitchen, I moved on to other rooms in the house.

The room on the left was my next target and when I opened the door, the lights turned on automatically, illuminating the room with a soft but bright kind of lighting.

The room was amazingly decorated and looked immaculate and fit for royalty.

One that I had the privilege of calling mine.

Everything was perfectly placed making the place look very modern and quite... expensive.

I once again felt out of place as walked around the room. The walls were as dark as nightfall without moonlight.

I put the bowl of candy on the study desk and just looked around, wondering how I was going to explain all this to Anna and Cal.

The furniture was, again, black with golden details.

The drawers were all empty, as expected, but I had no idea what I was even looking for. Maybe a clue on what this dude does for a living — or who he is for starters.

When I was done looking through stuff, my eyes landed on the chandelier that hang from the ceiling with a black chain.

It was beautiful, with jewels hanging from all sides, making the light disperse everywhere in tiny spots and rainbows. Speaking of the ceiling, it was decorated with golden flowers that were that were pleasing to the eye.

It almost looked like the ceiling was velvet black with the shiny golden designs.

I loved the study desk. I thought I would have had to buy my own books to fill this place but even the shelves looked like they were already begging for mercy.

The window seat looked plain comfortable so I placed my ass on it for a second. The soft and sort of bouncy. But what had my attention was the velvet material that was used for making the fabric of the cushion.

This dude really loved velvet, and black, because the curtains.

The length of the window seat was probably twice my height; I could sleep on it comfortably for a whole night without complaining.

I'm not one for electronic entertainment but damn that television. It looked expensive enough to buy my whole being and still have money left over... and it had the same logo I've been seeing everywhere in the house.

Ignoring that tiny detail, the bed that looked larger than a king size lured me. It seemed custom made if you asked me.

I climbed onto the bed and dropped on the fluffy material, swimming in a land of pure comfort and luxury.

I grazed my hand over one of the fourteen pillows and smiled at the luxury I was in for the next four years.

I might never wake up if I slept on this shit. After a short moment with the — bed, I got off it and walked to one of the two doors in the room.

The door was a sliding door.

The light switch was motion-sensitive.

There was a lot of... space.

Shelves and shelves and drawers and hanging bars covered every inch of the room.

My guesses were that this was the walk-in closet. I wondered who was going to fill these and... shoe racks. I mean, I literally had three pairs of shoes.

After that little exploration of the walk in, I turned the lights off and slid the door closed before walking into the other door; the bathroom.

When I turned on the lights, I became rooted to the ground in awe.

The black marble tiles that looked similar to the kitchen counter with slashes of grey here and there. There was a shower cubicle, bathtub, washing machine, dryer and — one of the walls was just a mirror.

The whole wall. Top to bottom; left to right.

It was extravagant; and that is saying the least.

By now, I should have a clue on who this person was having the things in the house I found... peculiar.

The black and gold theme, the kind of technology, the logo I kept seeing everywhere...

But I can't find a face to connect to these things; not even a name.

Shoving those thoughts to the back of my head, I went for my bags since I was done with my house tour.

After making sure the doors (yes, there was a backdoor but I was too tired for more exploration) and windows were locked, I went to start unpacking my shit.

And then finish my bowl of candy with a good book in hand.
