The Twins with Different Parents

"Hello," Ruth said as soon as she answered the call beaming with smiles "Hello beautiful," came Nick's seductive voice "Ready, for prom?" he asked "Yes,' she replied blushing, "Maybe," she added dropping herself on the bed. "Tonight, will be wonderful, I promise you," he said "You have the red dress," he asked "Yes, but my parents won't let me walk out of the house dressed like that," she said in resignation and turned to lie on her side but jumped out of fright when she came face to face with Chantel who was standing with her arms crossed at the entrance to her room. "Let me call you back," she said and disconnected the call without waiting for an answer "How long have you been standing there?" she asked "Long enough to know you want to lose your virginity tonight," she said, "At prom," she added Ruth freaked out hearing her say that because she knew, she will tell their parents next. She tried to correct her. "Chantel, I like Nick and he likes me but we have both agreed t

Ruth collapsed into Chantel's arms crying and Chantel stared at Damien with a questioning look. "Let's go," Chantel said to Ruth and led her away from the place. Damien stood watching the two ladies leave and didn't know what to do. He has no recollection of what happened the previous night. He had picked Ruth from her house and he drove to the school for proms. "We got out of the car and they gave us a drink," he tried to recall. "The drink," he repeated trying to remember what happened after taking the drink. He realized he could not recall anything beyond that. "The drink," he repeated and decided to go to Nick's house. He had already concluded there was something in the drink given to him and Ruth. Nick will never leave Ruth to walk alone. It was very surprising for Damien to see Ruth walking alone when he knew Nick came for graduation. It was very obvious he had broken up with Ruth but why is the question and why will he blacklist him too. Damien got a cab and headed

"No I know what I saw," he said and proceeded to his room.Back at the hospital, Chantel went to see their father and Ruth tried to eat something after Chantel's coaxing. At ICU, Chantel stood behind the door looking at Mr Brown from the glass window. She frowned wondering how he was still alive. He had wanted to kidnap one of them to torment and run the other person bankrupt but this outcome was also good. She just needs to cover her tracks so nothing is traced to her. She left the ICU and joined her sister in the ward. At 10 pm, Chantel left for home with what was left of the food as they agreed to take turns spending the night with their parents. Chantel called Ruth to inform her she had safely arrived at home and told her she will be at the hospital by 8 am in the morning with breakfast. She took a shower after the call and lie on the bed. Her phone rang and checking the caller ID she smiled. "Hello," she said with a smile"Hello my angel, how are you doing," asked the person f

Mrs Brown was able to walk to the car with Chantel holding her hand but Mr Brown was given crutches to aid his walking. Ruth helped him to the car and they left for the house.It was a few minutes to noon when they arrived at their apartment. Chantel helped Mrs Brown and Ruth helped Mr Brown to get down from the car. Ruth went ahead with Mr Brown with Mrs Brown thrilling behind her and Chantel paid the driver before following them into the house. Inside, Mrs Brown sat on the sofa in the living room and Mr Brown was taken to the room to lie down on the bed. "I am going to prepare some food for you," Ruth said and he again nodded"Dad, can you speak?" she asked wondering why he had not said a word since he woke up from the surgery. Mr Brown looked at her and smiled weakly. Ruth's eyes were immediately filled with tears concluding there was something wrong with her father's speech. Mr Brown raises his unbandaged hand and wiped the tears from Ruth's eyes. She could tell he wanted to s

"This is not right. I will find out tomorrow," she said and entered the kitchen to prepare something for lunch.After lunch, Chantel stepped out of the house informing Ruth she was going for a job interview. Ruth stayed back home and went online browsing the internet and applying for some companies based on her qualification. With each application she submitted, she prayed in her heart she will be called for an interview. She was not sure how much savings Chantel had but she was gradually running out of money. The alarm on her phone reminded her it was time for her father's medication. She went for the medicine box and went upstairs to give him his medicine. "He is coming down with fever, I wish we had enough to take him to the hospital," Mrs Brown said and Ruth sighedIt is getting to a week since they were discharged from the hospital in the middle of their treatment. Mrs Brown has been getting headaches since but she didn't want to burden her children with it. She touched her for
