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.

"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.
