At already nine o'clock PM, Benjamin was feeling intellectually drained. Really, he did not want to think of more financial statistics, strategies and additional information because for the entire day, all he did was that. To make things worse, his father had started to frown upon him because of his ability, or lack thereof, to come up with decent and mature strategies. Benjamin wanted to defend himself, since he was so young to be expected to come up with business comebacks that will shake the entire empire of architecture. But as a Chase, he had to learn fast. His ways around the world of business were an amateur's and if Benjamin did not exceed his father's standards professionally in a few years time, he was sure he would find his ass kicked out of the company like any other incompetent being. The thing was, Benjamin believed he was competent than anybody else. He was the son of the company's CEO and the least thing he wanted to be called was stupid and unqualified for the job. That would be a massive jab to his ego and future. Overall, thinking about all of these made him want to kick himself. To say that Benjamin Chase was tired was an understatement and anyone who could see his ruffled hair and scowling eyes would second that.
He took the floo going home and was greeted by the small corner of the Chase library. It was dark and Benjamin could smell the ancient texts that were not afar from where he was standing. He wanted to drop everything and fall asleep on the carpeted floor, curled up like a fetus. However Benjamin figured it was best if he went to his room instead and drop his things before he could fully be at peace with his thoughts. He exited the dark library that thrummed with old magic, looking forward to the sight of his room. He walked down the corridor and passed by the master's bedroom where he was sure his mother was. He would have greeted her if he still had the energy not to snap any doting she would make so consequently he skipped the massive room with his head bowed down. When he reached his room, he caught sight of the other doors that led to the bedroom of his respective siblings. Victoria's was nearest to him whilst Lucas' was the furthest and Benjamin had little energy to even blink an eye at them. He entered his own chamber and flung his suitcase on his desk whilst loosening up his tie. He wanted to be freed of the damn thing and Benjamin eyed the bed warily. He doubted he could ever sleep with a quarreled mind so he had to relax in some other way. An idea came to him swiftly and he quickly stripped off his suit jacket. A little far away from where he was right now, there were the gardens of his mother under the soft moonlight, dancing with the soft, warm breeze. The gardens at night were a peaceful sight to behold and staying there with his favorite pet would do be a good stress reliever.
Benjamin jogged to the gardens and whistled for Aurum, his English Foxhound. The dog approached ever so lively, its tongue out to pant the excess heat. For the first time in the entire day, the young man grinned and stroked his beloved dog's head. This guy was his second best friend and even if his parents hated his pet with passion, Benjamin could not allow himself to simply let it go. He approached a bench and instructed the dog to climb and sit on it, so he did not have to bend down to make physical contact. Benjamin's love for domestic animals was not known to a lot of people and it was moments like these that made him love them even more. "Stay, Aurum. Now that's a good boy," Benjamin uttered and and the dog playfully bit on his necktie with little force. At least his companion at the moment was not one to bark orders and insults regarding his skills. Benjamin was tired of being around his father, so the presence of an animal was refreshing and certainly entertaining for him. Plus, the serene scene around him put him under a tranquility spell. The flowers were out, its petals grazed with the moonlight. Some of the plants had magical properties and a few weakly glowed under the light of the lunar globe. All of it put his troubled thoughts into a distant hum at the back of his mind, whilst Aurum continuously sniffed on Benjamin as his master was so close to his dog.
