“Good morning, your highness,” Fiona greeted Daniel as she walked into his quarters. He was already up and sitting in the living room. He was drinking a breakfast smoothie.

“It’s you again,” he said. He did not look happy to see her. The feeling was mutual but Fiona had a job to do.

“Did you sleep well?”

“Why do you care?”

“Sleep is important. If you have a good night’s rest, then you will have a better day.”

Daniel narrowed his gaze at her. “Whatever. Take this glass to the kitchen,” he said to her. Fiona took the glass and headed to the kitchen with it. When she came back, she saw Daniel wheeling himself towards his bedroom. She quickly ran after him.

“Where are you going?” she asked him.

“To take a shower.” He stopped and turned around to face her. “Are you coming with me?”

“Yes,” she replied.

“So you are going to get in the shower and wash me?”

Her eyes widened. “No, I just mean to stay nearby if you need me,” she said. The idea of her washing his naked body made her shy.

“I can wash myself. I don’t need you lurking around.” Daniel wheeled himself to the bathroom. “Find me something decent to wear!” he called over his shoulder.

“Okay,” Fiona replied. “But where is the closet?” she mumbled to herself. His room was even bigger than the room she was staying in. His massive bed was positioned opposite the entrance. It had a lovely tufted grey headboard. There were glass doors leading to the balcony to the left side of the room. There was a comfortable-looking sitting area on the right side of the room. Fiona noticed a guitar on the sofa. She had always wanted to learn how to play but could never afford lessons or to even buy one.

Fiona turned around and noticed grey double doors a few feet away from the entrance. She walked towards the double doors and slid them open. She gasped when she saw the closet. It was big enough to be a room. She slowly walked in and looked at his clothes. Everything was arranged by color. There was a section for shirts, trousers, blazers, T-shirts, shoes, ties, watches, sunglasses and suits. Fiona felt as though she had walked into a boutique.

She picked out a polo shirt and shorts for him. She put his clothes on the bed. Fiona went to the sofas and picked up his guitar. She caressed the wood and the strings. She wished she had had the opportunity to play.

“Put down my guitar,” Daniel said as he wheeled himself back into the room shirtless. Fiona’s eyes almost fell out of their sockets when she saw his naked ripped chest. She almost dropped his guitar. “Careful!” he screamed at her.

“I’m sorry,” she said. She put the guitar down. She cleared her throat as she rose to her feet. “I’ve picked out your clothes. I’ll give you space to get changed.”

Daniel glanced over at the clothes on the bed. “I don’t feel like wearing shorts,” he said.

“Okay, I will pick something different.” Fiona walked over to his closet and returned with a pair of khaki chinos.

“I do not want that either.”

Fiona returned to the closet and came back with two pairs of trousers. “Which one would you prefer?” she said as she held them up to him.

“Neither,” he said. Fiona narrowed her gaze at him. He was starting to get on her nerves.

“Why don’t you tell me what you want to wear exactly?” she said to him.

“Just pick anything.”

“You’ve refused everything that I’ve picked so far.”

“Try again, you said you were to assist me, so assist me.”

Fiona took a deep breath before heading to the closet. She returned with thin grey slacks and a long-sleeved grey T-shirt. She put the clothes on the bed.

“I’ll be in the living room while you change,” she said. She quickly headed for the exit before he refused the clothes again.

“Hey,” he called out just as she was about to walk out of his room. Fiona turned around to face him.

“Yes, your highness,” she said.
