“Excuse me, Master Jinks.”

  He looked at the butler recognizing the speaker while removing his hand from Victoria’s shoulder.

  Gustav spoke “Due to traffic at this hour you’re required to leave a bit early along with that there’s clothes for you to wear in your bedroom on the bed.”

  Jinks nodded his head and got up walking to his bedroom which he spotted on his made bed were clothes. He exchanged the clothes he was wearing for the clothes on the bed finding them to be in the color black as in black sweatpants and a T-shirt appearing to be made out of cotton and put back on the sneakers he was wearing. He left the room to the elevator taking a route to the garage room to spot the driver standing in front of a sedan that opened the car door seeing him. Jinks got inside hearing the driver slam the door behind him. Jinks hunted for his seat belt putting it on as the driver got inside and heard him put on his seatbelt followed by starting up the car with voice commands. He peered out the window as the car drove out of the building into the streets and realized that Gustav was right about traffic as the car took a route to the middle school. Once arriving there he walked inside and spotted the office with a secretary there which he went in asking for the room while identifying himself as the teacher to teach self defense without mentioning his name. He frowned as the secretary stared at him with widen eyes who told him the directions to the room which he followed to find a large room with a matted floor and a group of seven girls busy chatting among each other not noticing him come in. He frowned eying the girls shrugged and went to do his stretching exercises in the middle of the room flexing his muscles. He sensed during his stretching the girls become silent and felt them staring at him as he finished his exercises to get up with a karate swing up move. He turned to face the girls with arms folded seeing that they appeared to be widened eyed staring at him with some shocked expressions on their faces.

  Jinks spoke in a serious tone “Ladies, get yourself stretching now.”

  He gave them a glare seeing them still agape which he added “I said get yourself stretching now.”

  He saw them shake their heads before scattering in the room doing stretching exercises appearing to copy his motions. He went around the room gently correcting the girls’ stretching motions till the exercise was finished. He proceeded to teach them self defense seeing them appear to be paying attention to him and his orders. Jinks found that the girls weren’t giving any trouble and appeared to be very attentive to his teaching till he heard a loud ahem sounding in a female voice.

  He looked at the doorway to spot a woman dressed in a pant suit who spoke “I’m closing the school for the night.”

  He spoke in response “Ladies class is over. I expect you to show up at the next class time.”

  He heard nothing from the girls but giggling sounds as they left the room with him following followed by the woman in the pant suit.

  Once outside the school he heard the woman spoke “A moment of your time Mister Montreal.”

  He frowned wondering if Missus Israel told her about him as he turned to look at her.

  The woman spoke “I’m Lisa Wells the school principal just to let you know.”

  He nodded his head as she added “The previous teachers have been complaining to me about the girls talking too much in classes and not paying attention to their teaching. The girls’ talking has been overheard focused on talking about males which is the boys in school on how they look to them to well known males in the entertainment industry. I figured that the girls not giving you trouble is because they seem to like you.”

  He frowned as Lisa paused to give off a laugh before speaking “You’re a very handsome male easy on the eyes, explains why the girls in class are doing what your ordering them judging by them staring at you with smitten looks along with appearing to be dazed from you touching them when correcting their movements.”

  He felt himself getting sheepish sighed as Lisa continued speaking “The school is having a dance for students tomorrow in the evening around seven o’clock. I need a male chaperone to help another and I keep order among the students. I like to know if you can help out.”

  He shocked himself by saying “I’ll help out.”

  He stared at Lisa who spoke “Thanks I’ll see you tomorrow.”

  Jinks watched her walk to the cars in the parking lot which he walked his car seeing his driver standing in front of the car’s side. He sat inside as the car drove to the home place building and once inside he went to the penthouse by elevator. Once inside he felt a compulsion to go to the kitchen obeyed to see Victoria looking like she was crying sitting on the bench back to the table held in Jacqueline’s arms with Jacqueline sitting next to her.

  He frowned as Jacqueline noticing him spoke “Victoria, your father is here. I like to know if I can tell him what was discussed for he’s your father and should know of it.”

  He frown seeing Victoria nod her head as Jacqueline added “Victoria is upset not having a mother to explain some female issues to her that is happening. She with feeling frustrated that she has problems admitting things to you, thinking that you’ll react quite negatively. She had a problem at school which I informed her that you know of it from Gustav telling you.”

  He kept his mouth shut went to Victoria to squat putting a hand on her arm seeing she was in tears.

  He spoke “Victoria, I’ll try my best to be a listener for you on whatever problem is bothering you. You can talk to Jacqueline on female’s issues for I’m sure she knows how you feel.”

  He paused as he saw Victoria nod her head who appeared to be still clingy to Jacqueline by keeping her form leaning on her. Jinks removed his hand to grip Victoria’s hand feeling it squeezed in a gentle grip as he noticed a look on Jacqueline’s face.

  He frowned as Jacqueline moved her mouth him lip reading “There’s more said between the two of us that we want to discuss and you shouldn’t be around to hear of it.”

  He nodded his head as he straightened his form releasing Victoria’s hand.

  He spoke “Jacqueline, please see that Victoria is in bed at a decent hour.”

  He heard an mm hmm from Jacqueline as he added “Victoria you can discuss anything with the servants but they have the responsibility of telling me about the discussion if it’s serious enough for me to know of it.”

  He saw Victoria nod her head as he leaned down and kissed her forehead then turned around walking out of the kitchen taking the hallway to his bedroom which he felt himself tired eyed the clock seeing it said eight thirty in the evening. He sigh going to the made bed to grab his pajama pants and went into the bathroom. He came out clad in the pajama pants his hair partly damp which he went to the bed yanking the blankets and once inside threw the blankets over his head as he laid on his side shutting his eyes.

  Jinks dreamed of he meeting Lance who looked like he was angry about something and appearing to be distracted.

  He placed a hand on his father’s shoulder who spoke sounding upset “I never raised my children I had with females over the years. I’m quite envious that you have the opportunity to do that. I’m fine with but am struggling to get over being upset about it.”

  He didn’t say a word gently hugged Lance who didn’t seem to mind being hugged. He felt his father get annoyed by the stiffening feeling which he stopped hugging Lance as he felt his eyes forced shut losing sensation of everything followed by blackness.

  Jinks woke up hearing the alarm sounding which he eyed the clock seeing it say its usual time felt himself quite rested got up to head to the closet putting on his usual black colored clothing which was a pair of pants and a long sleeve top including his socks and sneakers on his feet including doing his hair. He left the bedroom spotting Gustav in his familiar spot with the familiar look on his face which he nodded his head towards the butler and went to the dining room to sit for his meal. He waited as Jacqueline arrived carrying a tray with nourishment on it.

  Jinks ate the food and once done spoke “Vic
toria?”

  He stared at Jacqueline who spoke “I made sure that Victoria was in bed by nine thirty. Some of our discussion was on an outcast male student a seventh grader named Mavis Petersen who’s being friendly with her in the lunch room after she was outcast by the seventh grade girls. She admits that she has been eating lunch with him and he has been doing most of the talking complaining about his life to her while she has been giving him input along with sympathy. She in return has admitted some problems in school to him which he has sympathized in return.”

  Jinks frowned as Jacqueline kept talking “Mavis during one of his talks with Victoria has admitted that he’s not human but part of a manoid race called Builder. He thinks this has something to do with the other males in his grade out casting him. Victoria has told him that it was wrong of the students to do that if it wasn’t nice of them.”

  Jinks frowned as Jacqueline picked up the tray and left him entering the kitchen without another word. He picked up the Master’s Herald reading interested articles with catchy headlines.

  Jinks found an editorial talking “We’re suspecting a Human male for not being Human but somewhat deity like. There being evidence to back that up.” which the article didn’t say who it was.

  Jinks felt his senses blare an alarm after reading the article. He
