Keangashiq and Rutherford are in a villa in a safe zone called Viagra, they seem both lost in thought and smoking cigarettes. Rutherford is the first to break the silent
Honorable how is your plan, we both knew that somebody want us dead but, there is no sign of anybody after our discovery,
Rutherford, don't be stupid they want to fool us so that they can get us easily, I thought you suppose to know all this logic after all your years with me, this is the safest area as you can see, that James or what so ever his name is doesn't know this area, keangashiq said as he mouthful the cigarette
Ok, okay so what is the next plan I am already bored with this, it is like house arrest to me, knowing the freedom to do anything, also remember that your plan with your daughter can wait, at least let's think of a solution, Rutherford said glancing at him
Well, you are the only one I trust now, what can we do, cause it seems I am dreaming about Natasha these days maybe death is fast approaching, there is nothing to fear about death, he said and laugh fickle
I don't care whether you are ready to die or not but I have a long way to go, I am not ready to die he said in caution
Mr. Man doesn't make me upset say what so ever you have to say, if I die did you think you will be safe either, if not for me won't you have died long years ago, I was so kind that you only lost your sight, Keangashiq said angrily
Rutherford is so surprised, did keangashiq have something to do with his family,
Flashback
Rutherford be safe we love you so much, find a way to escape and make sure you revenge, look for your brother and make sure he is safe, Andrew must not end up like this the old man said looking at the young boy in pain. Then the gunshot outside increased pap-pap kakka skidiki pap-pap and a pup pudrrr boom skya, du-du Ku dn-dun poom, poom.
Rutherford, go now
The little boy looks back, only to see his mother being shoot, he screams mo-moo-mother, he breaks off his hand from his father, stands up, and runs to her mother, getting there the last word the most precious mother said is I love you, promises me to be safe, she said while touching his face with her bloody hands, and gave up to a ghost, he cried helplessly holding his mother, he heard her sister crying toward him, brother please help me.
he prepares to stand up and help her brother when a young able man brings out a knife and slaughters her only sister, the scene is so horrible, what did his family do to deserve this from these people, Rutherford look at the man in disguise, trying to look clearly at the man, he is so desperate to know him, all he can use to know him is that he has a gray long hair, the man notices the strange glace on Rutherford's face and throws the sharp object directly at his face, Rutherford shouts in pain and flew away, he tried his best to catch him but Rutherford want to be safe, he wants to stay alive to fulfill his parent last wishes.
In the middle of the night, Rutherford sits quietly thinking about the whole scene he becomes scared is like he is seeing the ghost of his family, the heavy wind blowing at his face, and the pain is unbearable, why!!! Mother, father, Kate, why don't you stay alive, I have nowhere to stay right now the pain is much he said as he hold his damaged eye.
Suddenly the heavy wind blew a white handkerchief toward him, Rutherford quickly picks it up, he seem relief and tie it to his bad eye to see with the other eye, after some hours of thinking and crying, he become hungry, he yawn much time as a sign hungry, the weather condition makes it worst and it starts raining, he moves from one position to an under, the rain his much, he has no alternative than to sleep in the heavy rain till it morning.
Hey stand up, Rutherford was tapped by a woman early in the morning around five o'clock,
Good morning ma, he greets politely hoping that she will help him
What you are doing in front of my shop, she shouts angrily at him
Rutherford was afraid, he keep quiet he is afraid that if he say anything the woman will flog him, he was scared and start crying, just how many hours he has started missing his mother the scene of his mother telling him to stay safe recalled in his head, without any doubt the woman drive him out.
He obediently leaves the place and starts walking in the street he did not know where he is going, and for two days and two nights, he did not eat anything until the day he meets keangashiq.
Hello boy where are you going, keangashiq in the latest Honda Accord LX car stops midway, Rutherford, is so delighted everybody has been avoiding him thinking he is a thief or someone dangerous, he looks at keangashiq for help, that day keangashiq take care of him, ask his maid to bath for him, he eats is best food, and leave with him ever after. (end of flashback)
Rutherford thinks about all this in a blink of an eye, to be sincere keangashiq has helped him in the past but something seems not right, Rutherford looks at keangashiq from head to toe, and remembers the man who make him blind and has gray hair, it seems keangashiq has something to do with his past and thinking about what he said right now even make him doubt whether he is not the man, and also keangashiq has a gray hair.
Keangashiq notice Rutherford and he comes back to his sense, and remember what he said
"Mr. Man doesn't make me upset say what so ever you have to say, if I die did you think you will be safe either, if not for me won't you have died long years ago, I was so kind that you only lost your sight"
Keangashiq is so nervous he did not know if Rutherford remembers anything, he knows for sure that if Rutherford finds out that he is the one who ruined his family he won't take it likely for him, he is the only person that can kill him without even making any findings, he looks pale all of the sudden
Rutherford notices the fear on keangashiq's face, he knows kingship has something to do with his family, but he will make proper findings before he concludes, although the thought of keagashiq knows something to do with his family's death make him angry he calm down.
He breaks the silence, honorable I am so sorry don't be mad at me, Rutherford said sincerely
Hearing his reply, keangashiq's worry all vanished, looking at Rutherford he did not seem to remember anything, he is so happy
It's okay don't make me upset anymore let go out and have fun, ask Samuel to come in and give us a better disguise, keangashiq said
Okay he said with a heavy heart
