Meanwhile....
Rose climbed up the stairs and headed towards the terrace garden. She was happy that her master and Rhehan were getting along so nicely, though she loved pretending to be jealous!
She stepped out on the beautiful terrace, covered entirely with gra.s.s. Various potted plants were neatly hung on the walls. Few birds were happily bathing inside the bird baths, placed on the walls, while others were enjoying their meal from the bird feeder.
Rose sat happily on a bamboo chair, looking at the playfull birds. Suddenly her gaze fell upon the adjoining transparent room. Just next to the terrace was Xio Lee"s library, which was built from eco-friendly, transparent wood. One of its doors also opened from the terrace.
Suddenly, she was reminded of Rhehan"s bracelet and the book where it was mentioned. She quickly got up and opened the library door.
Thousands of books were neatly stacked on various stone made shelves! Rose glanced at the books, finally reaching the ancient history section. Various old books were neatly arranged in the shelves, all related to anicient egyptian history. Rose was reading the t.i.tle of each book, looking for a particular one!
"Wow! Master seems keenly interested in egyptian culture."
Just then something occured in her mind, making her freeze like a stone. "Wait a second!! They all are not translated versions! This is some different sign language and how can I read this language? I don"t even know the name of this language and I can read it so easily!!!??"
A cold s.h.i.+ver travelled in her body, scaring her to the core! "Something is definitely fishy! That dream, the bracelet, animals and master having so many egyptian books in his library! Is it all a coincidence?!"
Rose searched for the book and finally came across a fimiliar book. She clearly remembered reading some of its pages few years back.
"Ok! I will read all of it and if it completely matches my dream, then I will tell Rhehan and master about it. They might not believe me, but I can try!"
Rose pulled out the brown colored book from the shelf and observed it carefully. Various figures were engraved on its cover, in golden color. Rose touched the engraved signs with her hand and to her surprise she could read it easily.
"The Ammon, by Pilis."
Rose frowned at the t.i.tle of the book. No wonder she could earlier comprehend the book just vaguely. Though she could read this language, she did not understand meaning of almost half of the words.
She took out her cell phone and googled the meaning of "Ammos."
"Ancient egyptian word which mean hidden one or concealed." Rose read the meaning out loud and then searched the meaning of "Pilis."
"Second born son." Rose read out the meaning and pondered for a while. "Does this mean that the book is a secret, written by the second born son?! Hmm! Interesting!"
As soon as she opened the book, she heard Rhehan calling her name.
"Rhehan?"
Rose quickly marched out of the library, holding the book in her hand. She climbed down the stairs and saw Rhehan waiting for her. "What is it?"
"I need car keys! I have to keep these jars in the car while master is preparing more of them."
"What is this?!" Rose frowned looking at the jars.
"These are rare spices!" Rhehan beemed in happiness, showing her the jars.
"Hmm! Ok! You go fetch the other ones, I"ll keep these in the car." Rose frowned looking at the jar, helplessly.
Rhehan handed over the jars to Rose and rushed inside excitedly to fetch more.
Rose giggled looking at her man. "What a kid!"
She carried the heavy jars outside the home, towards the car, while still holding the book with her two fingers. "Whew! These are so heavy! What"s wrong with both of them!"
She quickly unlocked the car and placed the jars under the back seat of the car, totally forgetting about the bookin her hand. The book too fell from her hands, under the car seat!
