JAYDEN COMES HOME

At the Oscars family house, some of the staffs where out to welcome Jayden. And Jayden's white limousine drove in just as Andrew had informed them. The driver parked right in front of the house and a man approached the door.

“Welcome sir!” The man who opened the door, said in a polite manner and had a smile on. He was one of the man servant, picked of recent to work for the Oscars family. He looked neat as though he was on an interview. Jaden have never seen him before and so, looked away. The man servant too dared not to look directly at his master and so, faced downwards.

Looking so handsome in his black suit, he stepped out of the car and one could tell how dangerous he was only glancing at him. He always hard an evil look and never really showed emotions to anyone. Though he smiled while staring around but even the new servants, doubted it and shivered.

“Oh my world! Look at how big you've grown. You look so handsome and when last I saw you, you were but ten years.” His young step mother, Margret, walked up to him and held on his cheeks. Jayden was taller and huge, even with his step mother's height on her heels, she still couldn't reach him. 

Jayden face suddenly formed up a frown and rolled his eyes. He hated her and wished she would just disappear from the surface of the Earth. He turned his head to avoid looking directly at her when he saw his nanny.

“You are still here!” He said with excitement ringing in his tone.

“Your parents await your arrival.” Nanny Rose said while pretending not to have heard him, to avoid issues with anyone, especially his step mother. 

His step mother was still trying to gain his attention and all he did was to snub her and face his nanny, an ordinary maid. His Nanny however, avoided eyes contact as she faced down to the ground like the other servants. Yes, she trained him but it does not give her the right to claim as part of the family.

“Yeah, that is true. Come in!” Just step mother still trying to make herself known to him. She hand his hand but he gently removed it and did not even look at her face to see her lour.

“He is here!” A tiny voice announced his presence to those inside the house and started to run towards Jayden.

Jayden heard the tiny voice, it sounded very familiar. He looked up and his eyes widened with shock. Finally, there was some trace of excitement written all over his face. His heart was pounding fast as the figure ran through the entrance stairs to get to him. His eyes couldn't believe but he managed to whisper, “My Angel is that really you?” She reached him and held him so tight to herself. For someone who doesn't know them, will laugh at what he said but it was the nickname he gave her, 'My Angel!'

“I have missed you so much! I just cannot believe you came.” Her voice sounded as lovely as she looked. She had some trace of tears rolling down her cheeks as she smiled from his shoulder. Though she couldn't reach him even with her heels, so tipped toed. 

Jayden hugged her real tight, “I missed you too, My Angel.” He cleaned her tears and kissed her forehead, “You even more beautiful now!” he complimented while admiring her.

Alexis blushed and crossed her hand with his, “Mum is waiting!” Instantly, he knew she was referring to his mother and he nodded obediently. Alexis was the second woman he loved so much and so, he would obey any order given from her. 

Jayden matched into the house with Alexis by his right. His step mother, Nancy, stepped in after them and gave a fake smile as if she wasn't burning with hatred. Jayden who caredless about anything, looked around and saw that everything looked the same but some things were added to give the room a more glamorous look. And he smiled immediately his eyes fell on his mother.

Amanda Oscar was sitting on a sofa when her son approached. She cleaned her medicated glasses and smiled at his direction. She smiled even more when she saw the way he held Alex.

“My beautiful goddess. You look gorgeous as always.” He praised his mother as he took her hand into his and kissed it.

For him, his mother, was his first love and he always treated her as one. Alexis moved away to allow the mother and son moment.

Amanda gradually got up from the sofa and embraced her son. She was so excited to see him after six years. She did not wear heels so she was not too tall but was tall enough to rest her head on his shoulder. Truly, she was his mother. Her height was excellent.

“Don't you dare to praise me when you look so breathtaking.” Amanda teased and everyone in the room smiled, except for Nancy. 

“Why won't he, when he looks so much like his father, me!” Oscar Led joked from behind and the bright smile on Jayden's face, disappeared.

He turned to face with father with no sort of emotion or a spark of excitement. Only hearing his father's voice made his heart frown, “It been a while son. Do you not miss your father too?” he added with a grin.

“Yeah, I did!” Jayden replied drily and immediately turned right back to face his mother. 

Oscar knew his son was still mad at him for the event that occurred years ago, but how then can he apologize to him. He tried to swallow up his emotions and smiled. Nancy approached him as her heels made sounds in the absurd silence that fell in the room.

“Please sit with me. The chief said lunch will be served soon.” Amanda finally broke the silence and Jayden obeyed.

After sitting, he signaled Alex to come over, “Mum, you did not talk me she was coming over.” Jayden quarreled his mother, jokely.

Amanda couldn't help but laugh. Alexis came forth and had no space to sit because she did not wish to disturb Amanda. Jayden noticed her frustration and tapped his laps. Alexis surrendered and sat on his lap and Amanda who was busy watching them, laughed again.

“She was the surprise i told you off. I knew her presence will do you alot of good.” His mother really knew him well, she was correct, “I don't see Andrew with you, why? He told me he was coming with you.” she continued.

“Something came up, so he got down along the road. He will come home soon.” Jayden immediately changed the topic, “So the family is having a big meeting or it is just a get together thing?” he asked as his eyes scanned and noticed his other relatives coming down the stairs to say hello. 

Jayden did not park the car at the garage, he could not have asked. Every family under the Oscar was present in the house and were preparing themselves to meet him.

“Son, no matter what, be nice and smile.” Amanda warned and Jayden wanted to frown but dropped a fake smile instead.
