Mark called out for the old butler and asked him to bring Tav to the Da Vinci Room. The old butler whispered, 'Follow me' and started walking along the dark corridor towards the so called 'Da Vinci Room'.
When Tav reached and entered the room, he was stunned by awe as the room was pure perfection. It was decorated by the late Da Vinci's art work, like the Mona Lisa and also the Last Supper. The room was also filled with a wonderful scent coming from the roses planted outside of the room.
Tav thanked the butler. He walked inside the room and set his bag at the very corner of the room and fell sound asleep on the bed. It was hours after, before Tav woke up. Finding the sky already dark, Tav got up from the bed and went towards the dining hall for his dinner.
When he got to the dining hall, Mark was already there. The chefs were already finishing their dishes and Tav can smell that the dishes are going to be wonderful.
'You are just in time for dinner,' stated Mark.
'I am always at the right place at the right time, this is what I am, always a lucky person.'
The dishes were set on the table and the feast began. Tav reached for the spoon and fork and too started eating. There were about six dishes just for the two of them. There was lobsters, local crabs, chicken, the so called 'peking' duck and also vegetables.
Tav only ate a quarter of the food while Mark finished the rest of the food. The food was so good that it was beyond words to be described. After the meal, they had a quick chat before Mark retreated back to his room for the day, followed by Tav, leaving the servants for the cleaning up.
Tav took a stroll at the garden outside his room before he went back his room. The garden was full with different flowers but the roses are those which dominated the whole garden. After a long stroll, Tav went back into his room and sank into the chair.
How nice would it be for me to be like the stars, roaming the beautiful night sky freely, without things holding on to me. No longer of me being a murderer, no longer of me running away and hiding like a hunted rabbit from the eagle.
How nice would it be for me to be like a free bird, flying across the sky freely, without things holding on to me.
How nice would it be...
Tav finally fell asleep.
It had already been a few weeks before when Tav had such a sound sleep. Tav is finally safe after so many weeks of running, away from the Pheonix. How much longer would it be before the Pheonix finds out Tav's current location? No matter what, Tav is safe, for now.
