I snapped back immediately, with a warning, "don't you dare touch a hair from my sister's head". (My words to him, and watched him wear a sly smile)

"Don't you better take these bags and get ready for the party tonight". ( He airs a command and drops it on the floor right in front of me)

At the party. I walked in and met everywhere filled up, Alvin took notice of my presence and smiles his way to me, " you look, beautiful sweetheart". ( Sly smile)

I wanted to punch that smile off his face but, I need not do anything stupid, so I returned my words by attempting to leave from there, rather he pulls me back and said, "can you please not create a scene, or else you will be sorry". ( He made his way through my ears that's when the lights at the mansion went off).

The guest contemplated themselves when a hand weaves me away from the bag and shoved me into a dark room.

"Who are you?". ( I inquired In a scared tone and met nothing but silence)

My hands were pinned to the wall and I could feel the eyes of a stranger staring at me.

"Can you please speak up?" I copied back my words.

The stranger tugged my hair behind my ears and left still not being able to alter a single word.

"Weird" I felt and left In a hurry only to fall my eyes to a bloodstain message on the wall, which reads, "life is full of ups and downs and at the end, we all have to pay for the crimes we committed, I am coming for you brother, get ready".

A shocked expression drops on Keith face, as he almost fainted out of fear, Mr. Ajay, walks over and placed his hands on his shoulders, after ordering the message to be watched off from the wall.

The party went on as usual, but Keith wasn't in his right frame of me, he kept on donning a terrified look on his face and decides to end the party, must sooner than expected.

Afterward, we all retired back to our room to have a rest, thus everything falls apart when Keith screams out like a child and ran downstairs to the living room.

Everyone at home rushed and met him in a deplorable mood, "what's going on son?". Mr fabian asked as Keith falls his attention over to him.

I looked from behind, waiting for her explanation, he has to explain the childlike attitude just demonstrated by him.

"son!! What's going on?" Leonardo copies back his words and met him replying. "Father, I just saw a ghost in my room?". Keith says donning a terrified look on his face.

I turned back and returned my attention to him, "what ghost, do you believe ghost exist?" (Asked and watch him latch out on me).

"Do I look like I would be joking about such things, and before you imagine things, I'll show you?".

Keith furiously gets up from the floor and dragged me upstairs, straight to his room.

He pushed the door open and tossed me in. "Did you find anything?" He added while hiding behind my back.

I soared my eyes round and wondered if Keith was gradually losing his head.

"I didn't see anything, Keith". I said and he fixed up his gaze.

"What do you mean by, you could see anything? Does it mean, I didn't know what I saw?.

Leonardo shoots a frown and gestured I left them alone to talk, and after a few minutes, my feet amble away.

He says, " listen to me son?" ( Draggs him back).

"What is it, father?" Keith kept the same look on asking him.

Leonardo drops him on the bed, receding with his words, " Keith, tell me the truth, are you possibly on drugs?".

A flabbergasted glare draped over his face, as he nudged his father's words away.

"Excuse me!!! Have you possibly lost your mind, you should know I don't do drugs and I would never do such". ( Keith affirms)

"So, tell me, why then, do you see a ghost, when we all know ghost doesn't exist?".  ( Leonardo drops a question to him)

Keith frowns and answered, " seriously father, can't anyone possibly believe me, when I say, that I saw a ghost in my room, he was staring at me".

"Who was staring at you?". ( Leonardo asked)

"It was David, my brother, he was standing right there?"? ( Keith points out the directions to his father, who dropped a stunned look on his face)

"Impossible, we all know Chris is dead, he couldn't have possibly survived what happened years ago".

Mr fabian tied down Keith's words to be mare illusion, to him, he must have been as a result of the threatening message on the wall, yet Keith thought otherwise.

"Please leave me alone father" he strolls into the restroom, while Mr . Leonardo walks outside donning the exact look on his face.

Thereafter, Keith strolls back in changed into his nightwear, he takes a place in his bed and rolls the bedsheets over his head to sleep, and so did we.

(Silence takes place)

We all slept soundly, but another turn of event, takes place when we took heed of Keith screaming out for help, yet again, we rushed into his room and fell our eyes to discern, a grown man seated at the side with his hand on his head.

"Keith , what's going on?"

He lifts his head after getting the presence of his father noticed and so mine as well.

A scared little Keith walks over and hugged his father, "please help me, dad?" He pleaded with him, as I quietly look on from a safe distance.

"What's going, what happened this time?". Fabian drops a concern and had hoped he doesn't alter the same words he did.

Keith pulls away to speak, "father... I ...saw... Chris's ghost, he came to me and demanded I speak the truth or else his going to kill me"?,( Fear gripped him)

I stood behind and took heed of what happened, Alvin quivered in fear and if Chris is truly the one, this can only mean that he's alive
