"mom, I can explain?".
( I sorted out and Maria Jose gets her talons galloping into the kitchen).
Luckily, their attention was converted to the front door, when a man ambled in.
"Hello, Master Leonardo?".
( he says soaring with a caustic look on his face, from a far distance, I watched them chatter, thereafter my presence gets called in by master Leonard)
He says, " Son, I need you to go with Mr. Omar here and inspect the ongoing construction going on at the company's new sight".
I took a quick nod and left with him ( Mr. Omar) after getting a chance to get clothed.
We drove to the construction site, mr Omar and I walked in and he gave me a rundown of what was going on.
While ambling further, a man walked rode in and accidentally crashed into me.
"Master Chris, are you okay?".
Mr. Omar raised a question, my eyes went off and I discovered that the man left a handwritten note with me.
I peeled out the paper and read through, " "come meet me at the coffee shop next to you if you want to know the truth?".
The strange written note got me a lot worried, what truth and who's the man.
Mr. Omar continued the tour and for some reason, I couldn't help but ponder the contents of the written note.
Thereafter, he went off to talk with the construction workers, and coming next I left to seek out the truth at the nearby coffee shop.
I got in and a man approached me.
" Hello, master Chris, the son of Leonardo woods".
Out of being cautious, I took a step back and declared to know more.
"Hi sir, but tell me who're you?".
My suspicion, however, got him smiling, he gestured we sat down to talk so I did pause to know more.
He finally breaks the silence after a while telling on the exact words I exhorted to hear.
He says and I quote, " hi, I'm Adamson smith, I worked for master Leonard for years but unfortunately, something urged me to stop!! Ask me what?".
"What sir?" ( maintaining a curious look I asked him, and he goes) "a long time ago, master Leonard married the love of his life, and after so many years of marriage, his wife wasn't able to get pregnant, they shared and prayed for a child, but when nothing came forth, master Leonard's wife pleaded with her husband to get married her best friend, and without having an option, he did and married the woman his wife asked him too".
( I kept quiet as he began again)
"Although master Leonardo got married again, the love he had for his first love got stronger than ever, the second wife got so envious of her friend and after while it was proved she was pregnant with master Leonardo's child, he had a feast, after a few months later, the second wife also expectant and that made master Leonardo very happy".
( he continued talking)
" Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and it did, nine months later, the first wife to master Leonard was sent to the delivery room to give birth to her child, and we all prayed for both the mother and the child, thus after few waiting hours the doctor came out and master Leonard hoped he would get a good new rather got the scare of his life when it was exposed that the child he was dying to meet, won't be coming anytime soon because he died at birth!!".
Mr. Adamson's confession got me thinking, why the fuck I'm I being told this?.
The look on my face substantiated that I was trying to comprehend everything being said to me. Hence I took my head up to speak, rather he let out before I could."You're the supposed dead son to master Leonardo".( thunderstorm goes off)I recalled his words again, and he tells on his exact words to me, immediately I jerked up from the chair in a furious manner." what're you doing please sit and know the left truth". ( Adamson asked for my inclusive attention)So, I sat back down and he proceeds discussing again."Master Chris, I know you must've been shocked after hearing the truth and I don't blame you, but please, it's isn't a joke, you're a woods blood, and I got to know about your existence at master Leonardo's press conference, his oblivious to the fact that the boy he adopted is his son, his very own blood"." how!!! Please tell me how you found out?".( I g
I got out of master Leonardo's room smiling, mom gets up and we bumped into each other.Instantly, I pulled apart while ambling away, she held from going any further."You cant keep ignoring me, son?".Her utterances got me veering around, " excuse me mom, are you kidding me?"( I said still pissed at her)"I'm sorry son?".( she saddled a sad look on her face)I know that mom did everything to save me, and now it's best to make up for old time sake, I'll have to tell master Leonardo that I'm his biological son, his blood." please excuse me mom?"( left her staring at me)I walked downstairs and it seems like I will be bumping into everyone today, the same way I bumped into mom, Mrs. Jane was the next person"Hey look where you're going to?" ( frowned at me)"I'm sorry ma'am" ( I put in a word of apologies to her, an
I pleaded with master Leonardo to at least return home fast, because at the fast pace he was going, anything might happen.Luckily, he listened and we left back home, the driver stopped at the drive way and we all got down ambling in.Mrs. Jane runs to her son, with her eyes all teary up, Keith maintained a calm behaviour, while his mom takes him up to his room."Hold on Keith"..They both stopped at his demand, Keith swiveled around with his mom, pausing to listen to what he had to say.( master Leonardo)He saw we were all waiting to hear him speak and he cuts off the anxiety, airing his words out.He says and I quote, "from now henceforth, Keith isn't my son anymore, and starting from today, my properties is and shall we given to my adopted son, Chris Wood's, who has proven to be of good"( in distant conversation goes on)"My love, yo
Apparently mom was right, I fled to my room and that gave her a sense of peace.And no matter how much I try to hide the fact, it pains me not to be able to tell the truth to my father.That the son he thought he adopted Is non other but his biological son.The next morning, before any one woke up, I had already entered the kitchen and prepared a lovely dish for my father (master Leonardo)It was past eight and everyone all went down to the living room, Mrs. Jane takes a fast sight at my dish."What is that?". She implored, aiming to infuriate me." it's called food ma'am" I retorted patiently waiting for my father.A few idling moment, master Leonardo walks down to the dining room table.And the first thing he saw was the food placed on the table."Wow, this looks nice?". ( he complements and sat to get served)Immediately, I left Mrs. Jane and run to him, " good mo
"Master Chris, are you okay, why are you staring at me".Maria inquired about the smiles written on my face, I nudged off the feeling and said."You have a soapy foam on your head".Instantly she turned to the window and mirrored the foam off using her hand."Thanks for telling me".(Her words veered her around, and I smiled and before leaving, asked her to meet me later on to do the assignment, which would give me more time to do mine).Therefore, Maria Jose walked into my room after a few hours down, I turned around and cheerfully asked her to come in.She forced herself to slip into a scared look, it was as if, entering my room would bring nothing but danger." Maria Jose, there isn't any need to be scared, it's just a room and I promise that I don't bite".(She lets go of her book, the minute our hands touch, whirling her eyes to mine)."I....don't think it was a good idea coming here!". ( Maria Jose takes a new angle, striving to leave)"Whoa, hold on Miss I'm so scared, and calm
Alexis' arrival appeared to be a good thing for Keith, they both spent time together and he had no spear one for anyone including his mom.So, I evacuated to my room and it hadn't been long since I went in, a knock on my door got me opening it again."You?" ( I said astounded seeing Alexis at my door)"Hello Chris, may I come in?". (She asked and walked in without my consent)"Please make yourself comfortable and tell me why are you here?".( shuts the door close, I turned around and saw her seated on my bed).Alexis smiles and lets out, "Tell me something Chris, Keith tells me you're the adopted son to master Leonardo Woods and that you don't bear the wood's blood.It would seem that Keith had already complained to his friends, the look on her face showed that she was calmly waiting for me to come back..."Why are you asking, when Keith has already told you?".( I asked her a question and retorted with an answer)"Because it would seem that Keith's wrong, there is something special a
Okay, did I hear well? Did my father just give his entire property to a boy he thought wasn't his biological son? ( Stunned)It seems everyone was also stunned by his words, Keith got so angry and Stormed out.Mrs. Jane frowned and left, Mom Passed donning a scary look and it was left Alexis, she happily congratulated me, at least she was the only one.Master Leonardo kept a quiet look and the second Alexis walked away, I turned around and aired out."Dad!! What happened!!! Why are you doing this, this isn't right?".Thus it seems by word got him a little upset, he takes a step in and said."What didn't right Chris, Do you expect me to give my entire life to a son that doesn't behave like mine, of cause not and as for my decision, it's final, you're now my sole owner of my properties, whether you want it or they want it or not!! Learn from me, son".( Tapped my cheeks and walked out),I know I should be happy about Dad's news but for some reason, I'm not, but rather scared, somethin
"Are you asking me that shitty question?". She asked"Yes ma'am" I answered awaiting for her to proceed further.Although I knew what she wanted to say, it was best she said it with her mouth.Like I presumed Mom frowned her words out."Aren't you at least scared!! Do you know what you're getting yourself into, if you accept Master Leonard's inheritance?".( Mom's words to me)"Seriously? It seems you have forgotten, that I'm also a woods blood and Master Leonardo is Also my father"( My words to her).Decerning the obvious, Mom had a long face and left my room. She's only being paranoid, I said to myself and got ready for bed.I tucked myself in and the second my eyes fell asleep, a scream for help got me running down the stairs.I ran like a lunatic and found Mom at the mercy of Mrs. Janes, her eyes over to me and said. "Welcome Keith, I'm glad you can join us".The stone that Mom kept got me scared. I tipped my way to her. "Mrs Jane, do not do anything stupid?"I said.Mrs Jane sm
I met my parents talking to the priest after Avanti practically urged them to know my hand concerning the wedding.Yes. I do want to get married to Abhishek, however, I'm on the edge, what if my parents get to find out the truth.The truth is that I'm already married to him.How will my mom feel?She might freak out, or better yet choose to kill me before I even get a chance to run away........."Javelin dear, come seat with me,".Said Mrs. Anuradha.She had this glorious smile on her face. I still feel like whatever chances I have for Mrs. Anuradha not to throw me under the bus... After all, this is done and she has gotten rid of Muni.Karen's sister. Right now that is what she eagerly awaits.I came ahead and gently sat down beside her.Mrs. Anuradha wrapped her hand around my shoulders and gently squeezed on them.....I faced her and whispered."What is happening?,"... I said.....She takes her lips closer to mine and replied."You shouldn't say anything, just watch and enjoy,'...
The party seems to be going on well, I went to the bar to order a drank, when suddenly I heard Muni, Karan's sister talking on the microphoneI grabbed unto my glass and hastily turns to find her getting the stage ready for a dance performance.Avanti spotted me from afar and hurriedly came.She says, " javelin, I think Muni is planning something,". I looked at her on the stage dancing, before facing Avanti again."Yes, I only feel the same way, but we will have to find a way to know what she's planning,"... I said to her scared Avanti, galloping her hands together.She understood and left.I came to meet my parents seated on their chair, my mom was so taken way by Muni's performance.She wasn't the only one. Dad too and my younger brother, was busy filming the entire thing...I joined the others who watched Muni's performance, while dancing I noticed her looking at a party direction, I faced too, hoping I can find something out of the ordinary, however nothing seems to be grab my
Mom grabbed me back to her gaze, "dear, can you tell me, what's happening with them?". She asked.I faced Mrs. Anuradha and Avanti gazing angrily as Karan's sister walks upstairs to her room.I can't possibly tell her the truth can I? Like what do I say, is it the fact that whatever drama that happened is a result of what transpired a few years ago or the fact that I'm already married to AbhishekWhat do I tell her?Mrs. Anuradha comes and meets us to talk.She says, " Ma'am, I want to say sorry for what happened, "She begged.....Mom loses her eyes away from me before facing her."It's okay, but I'm not understanding anything, what is going on?". She asked Mrs. Anuradha while she looks at me...She laughed."No need ma'am, but we are still waiting for your response,". She smiles at me, " can my son get married to your daughter?". She asked facing mom again.I saw mom look at dad. Dad smiles and said, " dear! Do you want to get married to Abhishek?"... He walks close and came to
The next morning. I walked over to Mrs. Anuradha's bedroom.Since I couldn't speak with her last night, I chose to have the same conversation today.After all, I do what to Know why she wishes to have a party for my family all of a sudden.We met at the door of her bedroom.She stared behind my back before facing me."Javelin, why are you here!",.She said, grabbing me inside her bedroom..."Tell me, something ma'am, what exactly do you achieve in having a party for my family?,"... I asked her."Don't you know!", Mrs. Anuradha looks away for a While before facing me......The look on her face made me know the reason why she was doing this.Karan's sister. But the question is why?......"Okay, I do know why, but tell me, what do you plan to gain from this party?,"... I held onto her hand as she tries to leave again.She takes it away confronting me.She says, "do not worry dear, everything will work according to my plan,". She smiles."What plan, at least tell me,". I said.She disapp
"Call the doctor Avanti,". Abhishek yelled as she grabbed Karan's sister in his arm.Avanti ran off to call the doctor.Whereas I followed, going with them to the living room.Abhishek placed a pillow under her head.When the doctor walked inside with Avanti."Doctor please can you check on her?". Abhishek said as soon as the doctor walks inside.He pulls away.We all waited behind.The doctor checked Karan's sister before facing us."Everything seems fine sir, don't worry, your wife is fine,". He says without hesitation...Everyone stared in shock"Wife?,"... Mom says, she turns to me, "dear, is Abhishek Married!" She asked.I hesitated...... In the process, my eyes locked with Avanti.She nods and faced my mom."Ma'am, no he isn't married, and that lady lying there isn't his wife,". She pointed at Karan's sister."Yes, I am with my daughter, she isn't his wife,". Mrs. Anuradha joined, she looks at me, there was this scorn in her eyes before leaving...Abhishek walks away with the do
That same day at night. I passed dad's bedroom going into mine. I didn't want to sleep in the same bedroom with it Abhishek.I was just on my to my bedroom, I had grabbed unto mine and pushed myself inside a room.I gasped and turned around to see Abhishek standing at the door.He locks it. "Javelin, been waiting for you,". He says as he slowly approached me.I went back. I held my hand back and without knowing it, I fell unto the top of the bed, and he falls right on me.We locked eyes. "You look beautiful,". He says to me.I smiled, it seems Abhishek is asking strange tonight."Tell me, sir, you feeling alright?". I asked.Abhishek laughed.He takes up his hand and caressed my face, he tilted his head down a little as if he was just about to kiss me when we heard a huge commotion downstairs.We both stared at the door.Abhishek pulls away, he turns to me."What's going on?", He asks."I don't know, but we should go and check,". I say, facing him...Abhishek grabbed my hand, and we
I went to the visitor's bedroom.In the room, I had some time to talk with them when a knock came on the door.I turned back to open it.And at the door, I met Abhishek standing with his hands and face smiling.I panicked."What are you doing here?"I walked outside the room.He takes his hands away before responding."What do you mean, I want to say hello to your family, even though you now act as a single lady,".Abhishek said.He rolls his eyes afterward.I saw that and begged him to go away.Abhishek refused, he was so adamant about meeting my parents.While arguing I didn't know that mom had stepped out of the door."Is everything okay?". She asked.Making Abhishek and I turned back to meet her gaze.I smiled.However the second I thought of saying anything, Abhishek pulled me aside and introduced himself."Hi ma'am, I'm Abhishek, Avanti's elder brother,". He says, stealing glances at me.Mom smiled and gently rubbed his back."Nice meeting me, you're quite handsome, don't you th
Karan's sister didn't say anything to me as I left.I walked into the room. Abhishek was still angry by what happened, he had every right to vent his angry on her, rather chose to vent in on an innocent pillow.I met him angrily hitting the pillows with both his hands..I went ahead and grabbed it from him."You shouldn't be hurting an innocent pillow,". I said.He rubs his hand together and turned, to face me , "javelin, I ain't going to argue with you, just give me my pillow,". He take his hand out to grab it from me..I pulled away and he grabbed it air instead. "How are you so stubborn, have you seen the look on your faze?,"? I said to him.Abhishek squeezed them and said, "what's wrong with my face!" I laughed..It's really funny to see how angry Abhishek can be. He turns like an angry bird, whenever he is furious."Come with me,". I dragged him facing a huge mirror, "cab you see your face? You look like an angry bird, do you know that?". I said and laughedHe faces his
