I hope you've understood everything,right?
Never been such clear.
Good.Make sure for not making any mistake.Otherwise you're gonna pay the price of your mistake.
You know I hate such threats.And you also know why I'm doing this.So you can shut your bitch mouth.
Huh....cool.Just do whatever is being told.
I've no time for paying heed at your junky words.I'm getting off.
Whatever. Just die.
She takes her wine glass between her two fingers & starts making lollygaging postures adding a nonchalant winning bent on her smirk.
She turns back at the mirror & a shadowless phantom just calls out,yeah,now you're looking like a real witch....!!!
I think you should consult a doctor. You're not doing all okay for the last few days.I'm observing you.Jack!!Are you listening?
Oh....Oh....Yeah,of course I'm listening. But it would be perfect if you repeat your last words.
Jack!! Have you lost your mind ?Why do you always keep such dizzy? Why?
Aaah...Well....I....I don't know. I'm thinking the same. Bit can't understand.
Should I call our family doctor?
Not now.I wanna observe me for a little time more.
But.....
Anne,please.
Alright.As your wish.I.....
Papa,see my new game. I'm just rocking. Wanna bet me?
No,dear.I ain't feeling that well.Later,huh?
Okay.But what happened?
I don't know. But you don't worry about me.Just a little pressure of work.Nothing else. Don't worry.
Love you,papa.
Too,my son.
This is a nightmare,Oliver.I can't help myself.
Lesedi,don't be a kid.That's fine.I've told you million times.
But, sister Gracia...How...how can she die?She was looking all in good state. I can't believe itstill now.
Lesedi,it's not natural death. It's a murder.
Yeah,I know. But who had the guts to do that?
If I ain't that wrong ,maybe the sane one who killed my dad.
Wha...what??!!!
How can you be such sure?
Just instinct. Nothing else.
But maybe you've got some clues.
Well....not such that....
A sound buzz interrupts his words.
Oh,just a minute,Lesedi.I'll be back.
With Oliver gone,Lesedi starts panicking remembering the site of sister Gracia's freezed body. One more thing is just interrupting her thoughts unremittingly.....If that murderer has killed Addison & now Esable, then what's it he or she is after & what can be the motive.
She hesitantly waddle her thoughts to the investigation room.That detective asked her about the Concealed Stone. But why did he ask such a thing.Moreover what can be the relations of all these murders & the Concealed Stone.
She is being nonplussed & conscious over the the security of the stone.She is even tripping over herself.Only she knows she has to do something as early as possible.Otherwise everyone can be in danger....!!!
Without her whole conscious sense she starts tiptoeing somewhere at her mind.And then shrugged back to the reality as a male wrist just holds on her unremittingly trembling hands & with embracing her waist around under the supress of possessiveness,the voice knocks her out of her fathomless thoughts,"You okay,Lesedi?You are looking even more horrible. Wha...What's up to you?" Lesedi can instantly read Oliver's concern & the urge to put her calm rising clearly in his eyes. "I'm...I'm fine.All's just fine."Lesedi has maybe never heard that extensively worse lie ever.That was fishy to her own ears.
She now know what's the next point.Oliver release her softly & dimly.He just fixes his stares to hers.As the air between them starts growing heavier , Lesedi can't help herself & breaks out the awkward silence fabricating to stay firm, "What's going on in your mind,Oliver.You're looking suddenly so cold.What's it?"
"You're right ,Lesedi. What're all these actually. I.....I just need to know badly.These all are about my family & I don't know a buck. It isn't a fucking joke here.For God's sake tell me everything from first to last & all true."
"I....I mean...What's it you want to know?"
"Everything !! Everything....!! It's not like I know a penny about a thing going on here.It....It makes me feel like I've never existed. It's damn!!!"
"I...I can totally put myself on your place.It just feels worst.And I'm sorry for that. Somehow I too am responsible. "
"That's fine.We can't change the past. Now we can better our comings.So , just help me through it."
"Oliver,I can understand what's going through you.But....but I mean I can't....."
"Lesedi,just tell me.What you know aboit my mom & dad?Why did they just stay apart & even didn't tell me when I'd met her hundreds times before??!!"
Lesedi can just feel the extreme rage gushing through him.Somehow that site is making her remember Addison.After all he is Addison's son & thinking this makes her sigh inwards.
"Well,fine.I'm telling you everything, Oliver. So,that story started 30 years before as far as I know.You'd not born by then maybe.
Your dad, Addison Brown was madly in love with Esable Gracia & she was on the same page.They got married after 2 years of getting together.
All was just fine & surreal.Brown Dazzles was picking higher & higher & the clouds started showing up in the horizon.
Addison Brown,I mean one of the top class business tycoon and your dad started growig connections with mafia and many underground gangs."
"Wha...What?Mafia!!!"
"It's not like you've none.At least I don't think so."
"Well,not the way you think.Just go ahead."
"So,the overgrowing connection wasn't something that missed your mom's catch. And ....and after that....."
"After that what?!"
"After that one of the gang members tried to assault her."
"What!!!!Are you insane?!"
"I don't think I'm insane enough to talk such rubbish. "
"Did he succeed? I mean had she been assaulted?!!"
"I Truely don't know.She never tells me but maybe not. "
"How ridiculous!!!Where was my dad by then?!"
"He was somewhere out of town.And when he came back,sister Gracia ; I mean your mom let your dad know all the things. He got furious as common and just got up to kill that sonofabitch.
Well,I don't know what happened then.Did he really kill him or not.She never mentioned.
After two weeks,she got to know that she was pregnant.
And frankly told it to your dad as Brown Dazzles was finally going to have its heir.
But....But...he found it suspicious..."
"Suspicious!!! I mean why??!!"
"He thought that wasn't his baby.That was somehow the result of that assault & that was when the cloud started coagulating in horizon."
"What happened then??!!"
"I'm telling , Oliver.Don't be outrageous like your dad for God's sake!!!
Well,he was being overboard & ridiculous and at some point Sister Gracia couldn't stand that anymore & broke off the relation & just stay away."
"And what about that baby?"
"He is now the man you see everyday in the mirror , Oliver.
She couldn't take you with her as she didn't know where to go & how to live.That was why she just left you as the heir of Brown Dazzles. "
"Then why dad used to tell that my mom was a whore & she just left me for another man.And why didn't she bother telling me when we met before at the orphanage???"
"I know you've so many questions, Oliver.But you've to be patient to know all these."
