My alarm woke me as usual and I did my routine, the week flies by quickly, it's Thursday already, I will lie to Mr Bullard that I want to go check on the contract that was given to Amber spark company.
I'll just send him a message saying I am on my way to the airport, I dressed up for today and went to the dining to eat breakfast as it was already served.
"Good morning mom, how did you sleep?"
"I slept well Darling."
"And my little sister?"
"Fine, how are you sure its a girl?" She said with a grin.
"Just a hunch."
"How are my darlings doing?" My dad hollered as he joined us on the dining.
"We are fine." I answered for all of us seeing that we are three now.
"I am going to my old secondary school today so no work for me."
"Won't your boss ask you where you are?" Mom asked concerned.
"That man always give you trouble." My dad added.
"He told me to go check on the contract we handed out to a company in Botswana, he doesn't know I'm going today though, I have sent my personal Assistant to go in my place while I go look for Mavery."
"That's a great idea." My dad said with a grin.
"You have a personal Assistant?! That's really nice, is it a male or a female?" My mom asked, as her curiosity was eating her up.
"Its a male."
"Is he hot?" My mom said out loud before she could stop herself, she is in trouble with my dad now, I smiled as I kept eating my breakfast.
"What do you mean by is he hot? Am I not hot enough for you?" He said that and I took a good look at him then burst into a fit of laughter, I was laughing like a maniac in no time.
"What does that mean?" My dad said as he looked between mom and I in confusion but mom remained silent while I kept laughing.
"That's it! I am off to work!!" He said in anger and stormed off, I tried stopping him in between laughs but I didn't succeed not even a bit but mom managed to.
"Sweet heart," my mom said and he stopped in his tracks "you know you are the only man i find attractive and that's not up for a debate."mom said and walked to his side by now my laughter had died down and I was left cleaning the tears that rolled off my face while I laughed, yup that's how hard I laughed.
"I just asked so Axymah will know not to get close to him because she has a boyfriend." As I heard that I looked up in shock, mom has always been a terrible liar, she asked so she'll know whether to hook me up with him if West and I don't make it.
"I Love you baby, no one else." She leaned in to kiss him as she said that.
"Really?" He asked between kisses, I just stared at them not knowing what to do, when I saw they were not stopping and it was getting heated as dad groped mom's ass. I quickly finished breakfast and went back to my room as fast as I could.
I had nothing more to do, I decided to watch a movie in my room, I picked the flowers of war, its a Chinese action movie, I was half way through it when I fell asleep.
Three hours later
I felt a tap on my shoulder and stirred in my sleep.
"Wake up." I heard someone say but I refused to wake.
"Get up now or I'll whip your ass." Immediately I heard that I jolted awake and crawled into a ball shaking back and fourth.
"Its okay." Someone cooed but I couldn't listen, all I was thinking about was the number of whips I'll get for not waking up immediately, I was a trembling and shaking mess, soon tears began to roll down my cheeks as I await the torture he will bestow upon me.
"He is gone, he is not here, he can't hurt you." I relaxed a bit as I heard that.
"He'll whip me and hurt me." I said in between sobs.
"He is not here anymore, its just me and Alero, we won't hurt you." Mom said and I raised my head to look at her.
"Really?"
"Yes really." I got a hold of myself after about thirty minutes but I was still trembling.
"I am sorry, I shouldn't have said that." Alero apologized.
"Yeah you shouldn't have, you know you are not to say things that will bring flashbacks." My mom scolded.
"How am I supposed to know what will bring flashbacks of her past? Anyways I am sorry."
"Its okay." I said in a soft voice.
"I stopped by to give you your mom's journal and photo album."
"Okay, thank you."
"No problem, see you later." She said and I waved back at her with a soft smile.
"How are you feeling my dear?" She asked and handed me a cup of hot cocoa, she is so caring.
"Much better now, thank you."
"Don't mention it."
"I'll go through the journal and the photo album and look for the burial pictures."
"I'll help."
"Okay."
I opened the photo album and looked through the pictures looking for the burial pictures while mom went through the journal.
Two hours later
"I think I found something, mom said."
"What?!" I said excited.
"Its nothing never mind, did you find anything?"
"No." I said and flipped through pages of pictures and then I spotted the burial pictures.
"Yes! I found them."
"Let me see." I removed them from the book and took a look at them one after the other.
"Look at the first picture." There are people gathered in the picture, they are all wearing black and standing in front of a casket and the second picture has the same thing but this picture is much clearer and I saw someone I recognized very well, Elizabeth, my childhood friend.
"I know this girl." I told mom and pointed to the person I was talking about.
"How do you know her?"
"She was my childhood friend, I have an idea, I will look for her on Facebook, I hope her phone number is on it."
"But how will you know which account is hers?"
"Her name is Elizabeth Asher, I will check all the accounts with this name, hopefully we will find her account."
"What if she did not use her real name, maybe she used her nickname."
"We'll just have to see, I will look for her and try to ask if she knows anything about Mr Dario's death, I'll play along, you should keep searching the journal."
I started looking and bam I found her after thirty minutes, this is so exhausting, I checked her profile but her phone number was not there so I just messaged her.
"I found her but her number is not there so I'll just message her."
"Go ahead."
Me: hey what's up🤓🤓🤓
Elizabeth Asher: hey girl what's up, how are you doing, long time no see, it's now you remember me right?😒😒😒
Me: sorry, so sorry🙁🙁
Elizabeth Asher: Its fine, how are you doing? Sorry for your loss, you mom didn't take it well.
Me: neither did I, thank you.
Elizabeth Asher: no I mean she didn't believe he died, didn't you do to?
Me: oh that's what you meant, I did but my mom didn't.
"What are you saying to her? You know Dario is really not dead."
"Yeah but she doesn't know that, I'm playing along."
"Oh...okay."
Elizabeth Asher: why didn't you attend his burial? Did your mom not let you?
Me: yeah can you tell me how the burial went?
Elizabeth Asher: yeah of course.
Me: my life has been miserable without my dad, I just hope my mom was right and he is not truly dead, I miss him so much😭😭😭🤕 my mom died a while after him, I am in a foster home, I want my dad😖😖😖😖
I can't believe I am typing this, mom looked at me as I typed it.
"I just said that so I will get something out of her." She didn't seem to believe me.
Elizabeth Asher: sorry
Me: I am miserable😭😭😭 I am being tortured night and day here, it's the small phone I was given that I am been using to chat you up now.
Elizabeth Asher: that's awful, there is something I need to tell you, its about your step dad, he is alive and well.
Me: really?😕😮😃
"I told you." I told her and she smiled a bit.
Elizabeth Asher: but there is something important you need to know, he is not the same man you know, what I am about to tell you will shock you but you must believe me.
Me: I will believe anything at this point.
Its true, I really will.
Elizabeth Asher: I can't tell you anything, I don't want to with out proof, find Mavery she will tell you all you need to know.
Me: just tell me please
Elizabeth Asher: I can't, I am sorry.
Me: why can't you, what's stopping gig?
Elizabeth Asher: him😬😬😬😩
Me: what!!
Elizabeth Asher: hello my dear Axymah, you wanna know what I really am? Keep trying you will never find out, I am nothing but your step dad, have you seen your biological mom😎😎😎😎.
I jolted back and threw the phone on the bed, my mom was also shocked af, mom picked the phone and exited the left Facebook.
"He is out there, he knows I am on to him, this force me to believe he is a clone but how come?"
"That's the big question." Mom said.
"I'll message Dinela and tell her we should go to our old secondary school now."
Me: be here in thirty let's go now, its almost one by the way.
She replied like after five minutes of waiting.
Dinela: I'll be at your place by 11:40am
Me: okay🤗🤗🤗
