Two days before the ceremony, the guards in the house had been waiting for Eduardo to show up and assist them with the task, but there was no sign of him. He didn't appear in the morning or in the afternoon. Everyone kept mumbling, wondering if he got hurt or if something worse had happened to him.
"Did we overwork him yesterday that he won't show up today?"
"I didn't give him that much task. He only helped me with thirty boxes"
"Isn't that much?"
"Erm..."
"Someone should check on him," one of them said. The guards from the Diabolos' mansion, diverted their gaze, not even trying to move an inch. After a moment of silence, one of the guards who came with Maria raised his hand, deciding to go.
"I'll go. Just tell me where his room is located," he asked.
"Erm..."
"Well..."
They grumbled, still not talking.
"He's currently in the young master's room", he said.
"Oh... Okay," he said, heading upstairs. The guards watched him as he headed straight to look for Eduardo.
