Prince's Butler
โYou dropped your spoon,โ the stranger says as he grabs it. โIโll go get another,โ and the stranger goes to fetch another.
When he gets back, Gianni is clinging to life because of his hunger. He is barely managing his posture. Quickly, the stranger gives the spoon to him. But as soon as it reaches the latterโs trembling hand, it falls to his bed sheets.
โI canโt hold a spoon,โ Gianni is despairingly disheartened.
Moments of silence fills the air until the strangerโs warm hand holds Gianniโs chin open.
โOpen your mouth,โ the stranger says as he feeds him with a spoonful off bouillabaisse.
Surprised, Gianni feels the luxury of comfort once more. The strangerโs hand is so warm and comforting. He could not help but feel shy and embarrassed.
โIโm sorry,โ Gianni silently says. โIโve caused you too much burden.โ
โItโs no problem,โ the stranger wildly smiled. His smile makes Gianniโs heart throb faster than a fleeting flame.
โYou should regain back your strength,โ the stranger continues feeding Gianni, โso that you can repay your debt with your life.โ
โWith my life?โ Gianni gulps and coughs. The revelation completely surprises him. โWhat do you mean?โ
โYour family disowned you. You have nowhere to go. You do not have any money on you nor any possessions to repay that service that I have done for you,โ the stranger explains. โThus, you shall pay back by serving as a butler."
Gianni suddenly becomes the butler to the prince, who develops an interest towards the latter. How will their relationship blossom and unfold in spite of the challenges and rivals that rock their world?
