While trying to stop her from leaving, a hand walks in and whiskered her away.
"Keith?".
I rushed behind and caught up with him, Keith let's go of Maria Jose and said. "What's up bro!! Why the unnecessary drama?, Don't tell me you're acting up because of this maid?".
Keith has always been someone that has a sharp tongue, and no matter what I've got to teach him a lesson.
So I said, "tell me something? Why do you need your geography textbook, we don't have lectures on that today?".
He kept quiet not being able to speak!!..I spoke out again, "Keith!! What happened? Cat cut your tongue?".
Instantly he flares up and almost attacked me, if not for the presence of the university's administrator, he dragged him back and in an angry tone, held Keith by his ears heading straight to his office, "damn!". ( I exclaimed).
Maria Jose kept a quiet look seeing the drama, the look on her face proved she wasn't hundred percent okay with what happened.
"Are you okay?", I implored.
She veers and let's go of her voice, "no sir!! What have you done, it seems you don't know who master Keith is, he would surly try to get even with you?".
( Scared glances at me)
Although she was right, the second thing needed to know was that, Keith should be aware of my presence in his life, family and no matter how fast he tries to play, he cannot be faster than his shadow.
And following to what she just said, I smiled and left her thinking out loud.
( 7:00pm).
The whole day ran by the speed of light, the driver master Leonardo sent to take us to school dropped us home, including Maria Jose.
I stepped down and so did Keith and Maria Jose, unfortunately it seems what happened at college still played in his hand.
He raised up his voice, freezing my feet.
"Chris!! Can we talk?".
I turned and by the look on his face, answered back, "what are we talking about?"..
And he dissed his response out weaving everyone's attention to us.
According to him, Keith begged I left his life and family alone and we should all know that behind every plea there's a dash of warning attached to it.
Mom as well as master Leonardo rode outside, meeting the drama.
"What's going on!! Master Leonardo asked.
And Keith gets out the same words before I could, he says and I quote, "father!! Please, I cannot have Chris as my adopted brother, his in no way a Wood's blood nor does he act like it and if you please do this, I'll do whatever you ask?".
( Eyes locked up awaiting for him to speak)
To me, I figured what would master Leonard's response be, would he accommodate Keith's words and most importantly what tasks will he ( master Leonardo) give to his son.
Afterwards, he finally spoke out, eyes linked to mine, and I quote, "what exactly are you talking about Keith!! I know Chris doesn't bare the woods blood but his more of us then you can ever be!! And if you mean what you just said, then prove it to me, failure to do so, I'll have no choice but to will my entire property to Chris and his mother".
( He turned his back and walked in)
Mrs Anna wasn't pleased by her husband's words, she left not after shooting me a deadly glare.
"Jeez!!".
Keith's drama seems to be unending.
Hopefully, he doesn't do anything stupid!!.
Question of the day?.
1) Chris plans seemed to be working? But the question is, does Keith mean what he just said? Or is there a plan behind his sudden behavior?.
Will Master Leonardo be able to save his family and will Chris be there to hold him up when he falls.

A while later, master Leonardo walked me into his study room, he gets the atmosphere settled before speaking."Do you believe my son?". ( He asked)"No sir, I don't". ( Without hesitation I answered)My non hesitancy to his question got him smiling, he adds up speaking again, "I do feel the same way, but if truly my son has changed, let's find out?".Master Leonardo coursed out speaking unrestricted, " tomorrow is my birthday and every year my son always gets intoxicated out of excitement, and ends up doing something improper, so if his really speaking the truth, will truly know tomorrow ".(He asked me to leave thereon)I sauntered upstairs to my room, and on my way crashed into Maria Jose, she fastened her feet at the sight of me, it almost feels like she was trying to dismiss my existence."Maria Jose?"Her feet froze at my say, she veers and with her gaze fixed down, w
"mom, I can explain?".( I sorted out and Maria Jose gets her talons galloping into the kitchen).Luckily, their attention was converted to the front door, when a man ambled in."Hello, Master Leonardo?".( he says soaring with a caustic look on his face, from a far distance, I watched them chatter, thereafter my presence gets called in by master Leonard)He says, " Son, I need you to go with Mr. Omar here and inspect the ongoing construction going on at the company's new sight".I took a quick nod and left with him ( Mr. Omar) after getting a chance to get clothed.We drove to the construction site, mr Omar and I walked in and he gave me a rundown of what was going on.While ambling further, a man walked rode in and accidentally crashed into me."Master Chris, are you okay?".Mr. Omar raised a question, my eyes went off and I discovered that the man le
The look on my face substantiated that I was trying to comprehend everything being said to me. Hence I took my head up to speak, rather he let out before I could."You're the supposed dead son to master Leonardo".( thunderstorm goes off)I recalled his words again, and he tells on his exact words to me, immediately I jerked up from the chair in a furious manner." what're you doing please sit and know the left truth". ( Adamson asked for my inclusive attention)So, I sat back down and he proceeds discussing again."Master Chris, I know you must've been shocked after hearing the truth and I don't blame you, but please, it's isn't a joke, you're a woods blood, and I got to know about your existence at master Leonardo's press conference, his oblivious to the fact that the boy he adopted is his son, his very own blood"." how!!! Please tell me how you found out?".( I g
I got out of master Leonardo's room smiling, mom gets up and we bumped into each other.Instantly, I pulled apart while ambling away, she held from going any further."You cant keep ignoring me, son?".Her utterances got me veering around, " excuse me mom, are you kidding me?"( I said still pissed at her)"I'm sorry son?".( she saddled a sad look on her face)I know that mom did everything to save me, and now it's best to make up for old time sake, I'll have to tell master Leonardo that I'm his biological son, his blood." please excuse me mom?"( left her staring at me)I walked downstairs and it seems like I will be bumping into everyone today, the same way I bumped into mom, Mrs. Jane was the next person"Hey look where you're going to?" ( frowned at me)"I'm sorry ma'am" ( I put in a word of apologies to her, an
I pleaded with master Leonardo to at least return home fast, because at the fast pace he was going, anything might happen.Luckily, he listened and we left back home, the driver stopped at the drive way and we all got down ambling in.Mrs. Jane runs to her son, with her eyes all teary up, Keith maintained a calm behaviour, while his mom takes him up to his room."Hold on Keith"..They both stopped at his demand, Keith swiveled around with his mom, pausing to listen to what he had to say.( master Leonardo)He saw we were all waiting to hear him speak and he cuts off the anxiety, airing his words out.He says and I quote, "from now henceforth, Keith isn't my son anymore, and starting from today, my properties is and shall we given to my adopted son, Chris Wood's, who has proven to be of good"( in distant conversation goes on)"My love, yo
Apparently mom was right, I fled to my room and that gave her a sense of peace.And no matter how much I try to hide the fact, it pains me not to be able to tell the truth to my father.That the son he thought he adopted Is non other but his biological son.The next morning, before any one woke up, I had already entered the kitchen and prepared a lovely dish for my father (master Leonardo)It was past eight and everyone all went down to the living room, Mrs. Jane takes a fast sight at my dish."What is that?". She implored, aiming to infuriate me." it's called food ma'am" I retorted patiently waiting for my father.A few idling moment, master Leonardo walks down to the dining room table.And the first thing he saw was the food placed on the table."Wow, this looks nice?". ( he complements and sat to get served)Immediately, I left Mrs. Jane and run to him, " good mo
"Master Chris, are you okay, why are you staring at me".Maria inquired about the smiles written on my face, I nudged off the feeling and said."You have a soapy foam on your head".Instantly she turned to the window and mirrored the foam off using her hand."Thanks for telling me".(Her words veered her around, and I smiled and before leaving, asked her to meet me later on to do the assignment, which would give me more time to do mine).Therefore, Maria Jose walked into my room after a few hours down, I turned around and cheerfully asked her to come in.She forced herself to slip into a scared look, it was as if, entering my room would bring nothing but danger." Maria Jose, there isn't any need to be scared, it's just a room and I promise that I don't bite".(She lets go of her book, the minute our hands touch, whirling her eyes to mine)."I....don't think it was a good idea coming here!". ( Maria Jose takes a new angle, striving to leave)"Whoa, hold on Miss I'm so scared, and calm
Alexis' arrival appeared to be a good thing for Keith, they both spent time together and he had no spear one for anyone including his mom.So, I evacuated to my room and it hadn't been long since I went in, a knock on my door got me opening it again."You?" ( I said astounded seeing Alexis at my door)"Hello Chris, may I come in?". (She asked and walked in without my consent)"Please make yourself comfortable and tell me why are you here?".( shuts the door close, I turned around and saw her seated on my bed).Alexis smiles and lets out, "Tell me something Chris, Keith tells me you're the adopted son to master Leonardo Woods and that you don't bear the wood's blood.It would seem that Keith had already complained to his friends, the look on her face showed that she was calmly waiting for me to come back..."Why are you asking, when Keith has already told you?".( I asked her a question and retorted with an answer)"Because it would seem that Keith's wrong, there is something special a
