Everybody has a sad face on, the maid dropped the food and left.Mrs Gilbert sat down with grieve. She cupped her face into her joined palm, then she stared blankly at nothing in particular.Andrew left the table and went to his room. Adam watched him leave, he also stood up and faced his mother."Mom, something needs to be done here, I don't know what it is but definitely something needs to be done." Adam advised, then he sighed. Mrs Gilbert raised her head and looked at him."Mom, I hope you will handle the situation well, I hope he finds her, I ...""Kindly go to your room please Adam, don't add to what happened and I will get back at you for what you did in school today." She hollered with a glance flicker. Adam blinked with a feigned innocence."Don't give me that look, your punishment awaits you but for now, go in with Nancy." She said again."Nancy, your Mama wants you in your room, right now." Adam ordered, Nancy didn't make a move an inch instead she bursted into tears."I wo
The doctor removed the stethoscope from her chest, then he rose and removed it from his ear."What happened?." Mrs Gilbert asked immediately, the doctor exchanged glares with both Mrs Gilbert and Anthony. The doctor's eyes cocked brow in surprise. Anthony was getting impatient already and she was anxious to know."Tell us, what happened?." He shouted at him with flared nostrils. The doctor knew at once that he had to speak up in order to avoid his anger which was rising."The cold really did a lot of magic to her as it weakened her book system but don't worry she will be fine by tomorrow and make sure she gets enough rest please." The doctor reported, then he reached for his bag and opened it."Thank you doctor, is there any medicine you want to prescribe for her?." Mrs Gilbert asked as she walked towards her, Anthony moved his eyes around in expectancy of all this to end.The doctor brought out a jotter and a pen."You got it Ma'am." The doctor replied then he scrambled something on t
Adam held Nancy's hand as they walked towards Sonia's room."I was asked several questions concerning you yesterday, they were so nice that I felt guilty because I knew they would never get to know you more." Nancy pouted sadly."You don't have to feel sad in any way, they want what can't be possible." Adam grinned."Ouch." Nancy whimpered in pain as she felt something bumped into her with force. Adam looked up to look at the person and it turned out to be Anthony. He didn't look back, talkless of stopping to see what he had done."My shoulders hurts a lot." She said, holding onto her shoulders firmly. Adam was very angry about his actions but he can do nothing."Sorry sis, let me help you to your room, in order to rub some balms on it." Adam stated, Nancy nodded. They turned and started walking to her room.Mrs Gilbert was walking through the corridor, she had a sad expression on, it was obvious that something is bothering her with the way she has a frown on. Adam and Nancy went thr
Adam danced to the rhythm coming from the earpod plugged into his ears. Many students wondered what was wrong with the mighty Adam. He stopped dancing when he couldn't hear any music playing. A frown appeared on his face then he looked back in anticipation of harming the person, his balled fist dropped when he saw who they were.They were his friends Ryan and Edward, they are both troublesome and handsome but Adam is more handsome."Why are you dancing like a lunatic?." Ryan teased and patted Adam."Look, he is angry." Edward added."Why did you have to remove it from my ears, gosh you two are not normal, give it to me already." Adam said with a furrowed brow."No we are not, I will use one ear while Edward will use the other one, Is that agreed?." Ryan asked, Adam shot him a glare and hissed."You can keep it if you don't want to give it back." Adam surrendered in a harsh tone and walked away."Is he serious right now, we were only joking with him, which he knew." Ryan said looking
Sonia joined Marissa in the kitchen, she is still feeling weak so she decided to help Marissa out in the kitchen before Anthony comes back."Hi Marissa, what would you like for me to help you with?" Sonia greeted, she walked in fully, Marissa washed her hands then she wiped off the water before turning to Sonia."No, don't help me, you are still not feeling fine, just go and get some rest while I continue, perhaps, I have a maid helping me out with the cooking." Marissa stated."No I insist, I have been in my room for a very long time now and it makes me feel weaker, please." Sonia pleaded, Marissa looked at her."No, I don't want Sir Anthony to see you here. If he finds you here then he is going to punish the both of us." She said out of fear, Sonia furrowed her brow and smiled."I know that's what is bothering you but don't worry I got us covered, I will run out through the back door immediately I hear his voice or a honk coming from his car. What did you think about that." Sonia su
Mr Gilbert stood up beside his wife heading to the stairs."Where are you going?." She asked with her eyes not leaving the TV set."I want to check on Andrew in his room, I have really missed him." He replied."Whatever, make sure you tell him he should just come out of his shell and relate with everyone.""No, you should be the one to relate with him not him doing so, continue your movie, I will be back soon." He said with a wink, then he climbed the stairs.Mr Gilbert knocked on the door... "Who is it?." Andrew asked with a low voice. He was laying on his bed with his laptop before him, he was having an online lecture."It is your Dad, open up before I break it down right now." He joked, Andrew chuckled, he switched off his laptop and jumped down from the bed running to get the door. He opened the door and saw his father standing before him with a smile."Daaad!!." He called and pulled him into a tight hug. Mr Gilbert tapped him repeatedly."You are choking me." He managed to say
It was in the evening and dinner time, everybody was on his or her seat but Adam was excepted.The maids served the food, then Nancy noticed his absence."Where is Adam?." She asked, looking at the stars and his seat."That's true and that's unusual for him to miss dinner. Andrew spoke... Let me go and call him for dinner." He added, and everyone looked surprised."No, I will get him here." Mrs Gilbert said, then she got up and went upstairs."That's a nice try boy." Mr Gilbert whispered into Andrew's ear. He scoffed and picked up his spoon....Adam stared out of the window, he couldn't get his mind off what happened earlier on."Why did she have to support him every single time, I don't know the reason why I am taking this so seriously." He thought and a sigh followed.His stomach rumbles that when he remembered his dinner, he checked the time. "The dinner time has past, maybe I don't really need the food." He muttered, he raised his arms off the window and walked towards his bed
Mr Gilbert dozes off on the sofa while watching football, the sound coming from the TV set increased in a second and he jolted off and rubbed his eyes. "What the hell is wrong with that guy?" He shouted pointing at the TV... "It is time to sleep, I need to get some rest." He added, he stood up and staggered to the stairs, he managed to get to his room. He knobbed down the handle and pushed the door, he got to the bed and saw his wife wasn't there. "Where could she be?." He asked no one in particular, he looked around the room and his eyes landed on her. She was on the balcony of the room. "What is she doing there?." He asked again. He wiped down his eyes and walked towards her. "Sweetheart, you should be on the bed having a great sleep by now so why are you here?." He asked, leaning on the steel welded round the balcony. "What Adam said was right, all I did was to defend Anthony over and over even if he did terrible things while I scolded others. I made him who he is now. I didn't
