DAMIEN

With the daily print in hand and my breakfast before me, I went through the last phase of my daily routine before heading out to work.

Just as I was reading the newspaper with utter focus, I could hear the pacing footsteps of my son who rushed down to see me before I had the chance to leave for work.

"There is my superman."

I said as I dropped the newspaper to pick him up, he sat on my limbs with a bright smile on his face and his gaze focused solely on my cup of coffee.

"Good morning dad, can I have this?"

He asked politely with a subtle and innocent tone, his voice melted my heart each time I heard him speak.

"It is coffee and it's very hot for you to drink, where is your mom?"

"She is upstairs getting ready."

He responded with a carefree mind as he then reached out to grab the newspaper, I always made it a routine to see him before I left the house.

Clara on the other hand was never really concerned with the basics of her duty to our son, she would always take so much time t

    DAMIENHe asked once more, still further from the truth I then adjusted my chair to draw closer to him as I spoke."This birthmark right here is always consistent with the male relatives of my bloodline but there is something that makes me think about my son in a different sense entirely."What is that?"As Fred awaited my answer I then turned my gaze to him and told him my mind."This means that my son should have the birthmark as well but guess what, he doesn't and it makes me wonder if he is at all truly my son.""Whoa whoa Whoa, now hold on a minute tiger."Fred tried to dismiss the very thought of Benjamin not being mine as he thought I was just being paranoid, he did not believe I would think that."There's no way you can judge that by just a mere birthmark Damien, of all people should know better than to believe in kinds of stuff like this."His words resonated with doubt, something my mind could not let in as I continued to ponder on the truth of my son's real identity.I bega

    DETECTIVE LEONARDArmando got off the phone with Damien and he told him what he needed to do to get him off the case, the fewer the people involved in the investigation the better.We already tried to keep a low profile on the case when we began and I intended to keep it that way. I made my terms known to Michigan and Armando if they were to help in the investigation."He won't be a problem in the investigation, I still do not get why he needs to be left after all he gave us the number to reach Miss Flora."Armando asked me with a confused expression as he did not seem to get the bigger picture, certain decisions needed to be made to ensure the proper findings."You wanted to involve the very person who stays with Clara in this case, what do you think will happen when he finds out about Paul?"My rhetorical question gave him a clue as to what exactly I was aiming at, no other words were needed to explain what I demanded of the investigation."That brings me back to the matter at hand,

    DETECTIVE LEONARD"Detective, you will have to excuse us as we have pressing issues to handle in the company, please do well to let us know if you find anything.""Will do."I politely rose to my feet as I watched the pair leave my office, their steps hinted at a newfound purpose as they walked out of the room.Just as I was about to take my seat once again, a call from the captain's desk came in and I knew it was going to be another frustrating meeting"Captain?"I uttered in an attempt to get his attention as he faced the glass window in his seat, he was rather calm than usual as I walked in.'Where are you in the murder case?'He saw Michigan and Armando leaving my office before he called, I could sense that he had something to say if my response was one he did want to hear."I discovered a new set of evidence as well as a cell phone I found in a trash bin close to the crime scene, the tech guys are on the cell phone, sir."He maintained his composed and silent countenance for a mo

    MICHIGANJust as I was waiting for the nurse to leave the room before I could walk in with Armando, I overheard the pacing footsteps of a man who happened to be the detective."Have you guys seen him yet?"The detective asked immediately as he got close to us, his countenance signaling his curiousness to see the stranger he had been hearing about all his time."The nurse is still in there making her last check before we can see him, apparently if we just went in like that he may have probably been startled by the sudden surprise."Armando on the other hand was rather silent than usual as I spoke to the detective, his silent impression screamed for attention as I turned my gaze towards him.He seemed lost in thought as he stood like a statue with his focus solely on the flower vase, he was thinking of something serious but I just could not tell what it was that got him so engaged."Are you alright Armando?"I asked as I proceeded to touch him on the shoulder, he was unaware of what was

    MICHIGAN "It could have been another hit-and-run scenario and you are just here wasting our time."The detective responded with a tone of disbelief as he did not seem convinced by the story Paul told, he was acting far different from the usual detective he would present himself as in the station."Are you even a real detective or did you just manage to convince people that you are, I do not see why you should doubt my truth after all I am in a hospital bed and the perpetrator is nowhere near here."Paul spoke out of anger as he sat up from his bed, he was not having anyone, not even the detective doubt his story as he thought his condition was enough to believe otherwise."Now tell me something Paul, if you claim to be innocent as you portray yourself in this incident why then did this stranger find a reason to attack you?"Paul suddenly shut out his angered impression as he could not look the detective in the eye, his reaction hinted at the fact that he recognized the truth in the d

    CLARAThe curtains in my room lit up with deemed lights as the rays from the sun slowly permeated the dark room. The room was cold as I still slept in it.I woke up to the call of my son, as he was nearly prepared for school. My much-needed nap was drawn to a close by the persistent call of my son and his hand trying to drag me off the bed."Junior, what is it?"I asked with a clumsy tone, as I still wasn't wide awake. My sleepy head was still not ready to get off the bed, as I seemed to enjoy my bed even more at the moment."Mom, it's almost time for me to go, and I don't want to be late."The persistent cry of my son for my attention was disturbing, and as I love my time, I could no longer stall the much-needed attention from my son as I stood up and walked out with him."Go and get ready for school, Benjamin. I will be with you in a minute."I finally sent him off, as I still needed to clear my head after such a deep sleep, I still wanted to rest but couldn't resist the inevitable

    CLARA"My apologies; I will do well to bring him early to school."The teacher could tell from my tone that I could not care less about whatever she was talking about. She then proceeded to give her last statement before taking Benjamin to the school."Mrs. Clara, I want to clarify to you that if this happens again, the school authorities will have no choice but to dismiss Benjamin.""Very well."I replied just before rolling up the car window as I signaled the driver to drive off. The words of the teacher did not cause any form of fright to me as I went on about my business."Take me to the city's old folks home, I need to see someone there."Just as the driver zoomed off into the road under my command, I made a very important call with Paul's ex-boss who happened to be a few miles away from the city."Mister Pietro, I believe you know the reason why I am calling you."I spoke with anger slowly growing in my tone. I was so furious as to why he did not get the job done."You know bett

    DETECTIVE LEONARDI made my way as fast as I could down to the station with a sense of urgency that I had never had before, the truth was just at the tip of this investigation and I could feel it coming from a certain angle.I took a shorter route that led me faster to the station, I arrived just in time to meet the tech guys as they seemed to have found something usual on the cell phone. Still mirroring the same tensed state I drove off with, I made my way directly to the tech guy's office as they were still surfing through the details on the phone"This case is starting to get on my neck and my patience is growing thin, please tell me you found something I can work with.I said to the tech guy immediately after I stepped into the room, my tone echoed with desperation as I spoke."Luckily we were able to find the source of the call and pin a location to his new cell, I will admit it was a bit hard trying to get him cause he had the cellphone protected from any form of tracking.""So

    MICHIGANA few weeks later after the incident at Damien's mansion, I felt sick and became bedridden due to a very unusual flu which I ignored at the start.I thought deeply as to where that moment of fantasy would lead me and Damien, it felt different as I embraced the mutual feeling we both shared and gave in to my heart's deepest desire.The flu kept me from work and doing anything productive leaving me with no other option than to hire a maid. I was too stubborn to go to the hospital as I feared that I would have to spend days thereafter testing.Just as I sat in my room with my wipes on my side and my nose as red as that of the red reindeer, my maid walked into the room and there seemed to be someone at the door as well."Someone is here to see you madam.""Come in."I responded with anticipation as I watched the door to see who it was, surprisingly I saw Damien walk into the room with flowers in his hand.His expression changed when she saw the drain look on my face that hinted a

    DAMIENThe death of my father was more than a shock to me as I still could not grasp the level of the situation. What I felt in the aftermath of my father's death was indescribable.I would sometimes be lost in my mind each time I thought about his death, it would seem as if I had lost my mind and driven to madness.A few friends of my father had gathered in the mansion to mourn him after the burial, and countless people all came to me to say the same thing over and over again.It became infuriating but I had no other option than to keep up and put up an understanding face. I left the main room where all the guests were gathered to the outskirts of the mansion.To my greatest surprise, I saw the most unexpected guest I didn't think would come, I watched as she walked out of her car and her driver drove off to park the vehicle."Michigan."I stuttered as I still could not believe my eyes as I saw her in a black dress approach where I stood, she looked even more beautiful in the dress.

    ARMANDOI looked at the letter that weakened me from the very moment I saw it, a letter from my long-lost family.All my life I never thought that this day would come when I would meet my people again, a cluster of emotions raided my mind as I couldn't help but feel an outburst of happiness and sadness at the same time.The name I had made for myself as well as Michigan made it easier for anyone to find us as well as my long-lost parents."What about Michigan?"The one thought that made me think straight in the fog of all those emotions, I spent so much time with her as we became a crucial part of each other and I could not help but feel what this message would do to her once she heard.I closed my eyes as tears dripped down my cheeks, there was only one road for me to take and it would be a painful one but the best for us both.I walked into Michigan's office after leaving my desk with a different sense of being, I took my steps slowly in an attempt to find the right words to disclos

    CLARAI could not help the fact that my meeting with Paul caught me off-guard as I did not expect anything like the outcome of what I encountered, it made me drive with a worried mind."Why do I keep getting this intuition that something wrong would happen?"I thought aloud in the car as I drove alone, the exact words rang through my mind as I approached the end of my destination.Arriving at the mansion with the same worried and troubled countenance as I walked up to the door, the mansion appeared even more quiet than usual as I stood at the door surprised."What is going on here Damien?"I asked as I saw him sit in anticipation and with a menacing look on his face, he sipped the glass of juice before bringing himself to speak to me."Look at those test results, all the answers you need are in there."He spoke in such a calm tone which made the situation even more frightening as I touched the test slip on the table. He watched me like a predator waiting for me to make the wrong move

    ARMANDOTo my greatest surprise, she did not even seem fazed by the fact that I was with Paul, it was almost as if she knew about us the entire time which I highly doubted."Why am I not surprised to see the right-hand man or should I say servant of Michigan, you guys do make quite the duo after all."She spoke with a sense of calmness as none of what had happened seemed to catch her by surprise, even with the element of surprise on our side she was not moved."I haven't got all day Paul, If you have something to say to me you might as well go on with it or save us the stress of having such an absurd meeting.""I did not come here to banter words with you Clara for that time is far behind me, you decided that you do not want me in Benjamin's life knowing fully well that he is my son and not Damien's."I watched as Paul poured out his mind to Clara in a tone that I never heard him use until the moment he accepted the gruesome fate that Clara presented him with."I will leave his life b

    ARMANDO"We were able to apprehend the assassin as well as his employer who happened to be an underground drug lord portraying an addictive gambler to the public. I got the drug lord to talk and he confessed to his crimes."The detective said as he revealed the concluding aspects of the investigation, one thing was still ringing in my mind and I waited for him to finish the reveal before I asked."There is still one part of the investigation which seems like you skipped it, it's the part that concerns Michigan and happened to the same thing that linked her to the case.""I was just getting there, the drug lord also revealed that he was working with Clara whose sole aim was to frame your boss for the crime while the main plan was to kill Paul."Such a full disclosure was certain to drive one into a state of unparalleled shock, I stood my ground in disbelief as I slowly assimilated the information that shook me."it is now up to you guys if you will press charges against her or not, you

They were more than ready to give him as much needed time as possible to recover."We will find time to get his classmates and the staff to visit him, my regards to him.""Will do, madam."I responded to the headmistress as I hung up after seeing the presence of one who completely changed my neutralized countenance, someone who needed to be here but not the type I would expect to arrive at anything early."Where is he, where is my son?"Clara asked as she walked straight to the room I was standing close to, I stopped her from entering as the nurse was still administering his medication."Hold your horses right there, you barge in demanding to see a son you didn't even bother to check on before driving off to some busi

    DAMIENAfter a day of nonstop paperwork even as the owner of the company, I returned to my mansion with a weighted expression and a tired countenance.All I needed was rest at the moment, nothing more nothing less as I crawled out of the car, trying to lift my entire body and the briefcase I held in hand."Nancy!"I called out to Benjamin's nanny as she was the only maid in the house before crashing into the nearest couch I could find in the living room, loosening my tie as I awaited her arrival.After a few minutes of no response, I decided to call her as I had no more strength left in me to call out at the fullest extent of my lungs."Where are you, Nancy?" I asked immediately if she picked up my call, "I have been calling you since I got back and you are nowhere to be found.""I went to the store to pick up something that Mrs. Clara ordered, she asked me to rush down here a few minutes before you called sir."It was not of her own doing as the task sounded exactly like something Cl

To my greatest surprise, the officer caught him before he could get on his feet, cuffing him up as he could not pull any more tricks out of the bag."You nearly got killed in there, I hope this goose chase you were about to take us on was not for nothing or else you will have me to answer?"The suspect did not want to answer as he held a bold and overconfident expression with me, he wanted to make this even harder than it already was but I knew just what to do to get to him.I drove them back
