Mina walked behind the servant until he reached the room where he would live. The servant stood in front of the door and opened it.
"Please, sir, this is your room."
Mina entered the room, looking around. The room contained a bed, shelves full of books, a tea table with several chairs around it, a dining table, and on its side, a couch for sitting.
"Sir, I will be at your service if you need anything. You will find me outside your room."
Mina turned his gaze to the servant, thinking about what he should ask for.
"What is your name?"
"My name is Thomas, sir."
"Thomas, I want to use the bathroom. Where is it?"
Thomas pointed to the right wall of the room and said, "The bathroom is there, sir."
"Thank you."
"Do you need anything else, sir?"
"I want food and clothes."
"Yes, sir."
Thomas left the room to get what Mina had requested, while Mina went to the bathroom to bathe. Mina noticed that the bathroom resembled those on Earth. Mina took off his clothes and stepped under the hot water to bathe. Mina felt the tension and fatigue leaving him and began to think about everything that had happened to him up to this moment. He found it difficult to comprehend all the things that had occurred: first, the appearance of zombie-like creatures that only appear in movies; second, that he was in another world; third, it seemed that the planet Earth was not the only one with life, and that there were other species besides humans. He felt like his mind was going to explode.
Knock, knock.
"Sir, I have brought what you requested."
Mina returned to reality: "Alright, I'll be out in a moment."
He said to himself: "Sigh, get a grip, Mina. The world has changed, and you can't go back to how it was before, so you have to go with the flow."
Mina turned off the water and looked around for a towel, but he couldn't find one.
"Thomas, where is the towel?"
"There is a small cabinet in the bathroom that contains the towels."
Mina opened the cabinet, took out a bathrobe, and put it on. Mina came out of the bathroom and found that Thomas had placed the food on the dining table, but he had not brought clothes.
"Where are the clothes?"
"I apologize, I forgot to ask for your size, and what kind of clothes do you want?"
"What do you mean by the nature of the clothes?"
"I mean clothes for sleeping or clothes for the house."
"I want clothes for sleeping."
"Then, may I take your measurements?"
"Go ahead."
Thomas took out a tape measure and approached Mina to determine his size. Thomas finished taking Mina's measurements.
"We are finished, sir. I will bring you pajamas that fit you. Here is the food you requested."
Thomas left the room, while Mina sat down at the dining table to eat. Thomas returned after 10 minutes carrying the clothes. Thomas entered Mina's room and found Mina sitting at the dining table with his hands on his stomach. Thomas saw that the plates contained nothing, not even crumbs, so Thomas was surprised, first by Mina's speed in finishing the meal and second by Mina not leaving any crumbs. Any person who enters the palace is a noble and knows table manners, so he was surprised.
When Mina came out of his happiness because of the delicious food, he noticed that Thomas was standing surprised, looking at the plates. Mina felt embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I haven't eaten food for several days, and the food is very delicious, so I couldn't resist."
Thomas came to his senses and said with a smile, "No problem, and it's wonderful that you liked the food. Please, here are the pajamas you requested."
Mina took the pajamas after thanking Thomas. When Mina took the clothes, he felt a great softness, as he had never felt such softness before on Earth, and the pajamas were blue.
"Sir Mina, do you like the clothes? If you don't like them, I will bring you other clothes."
"No, I like them. Thank you, Thomas."
"You don't need to thank me; this is my duty. Do you need anything else?"
"Thank you, I don't need anything, and if I need anything, I will call you."
"Then, if you'll excuse me, sir, I will leave."
Mina nodded his head. Thomas left the room, so Mina put on the pajamas, lay down on the bed, and in seconds, he fell sound asleep, as he had not slept since he woke up in this world.
