It was dark and raining when they arrived in Mexico city. The car stopped in front of a bungalow which was painted brown. Emilia pulled him out of the car with his luggage beside him and they both rushed into the building with the rain splashing all over them. Everywhere looked strange to him as they walked into the house. The lights were dim and he couldn't see clearly. The sitting room was small, compared to the one at his Father's mansion. There were three Sofas and a small glass table in the middle of the room. A soft music was playing in the background and the smell of jade perfume filled the room. "Hey".. a voice startled him and he turned to see an able bodied man standing behind him, wearing a fierce look on his face and his chin was covered with beards. He flinched at the sight. Who could he be? He reasoned as they both stared at each other with the Man's look intimidating his frail mind. He felt like peeing on himself when his mother walked in. "Hey baby," she said and

Those were the kind of vibes he actually needed. Most times, he would sneak into Derrick's room to look for a stick of cigarette which he took to his room and lock himself in the bathroom to smoke. One day at school, Julius taught him about smoking and how God hates it. "Would he stop being my friend if I smoke?" Eden asked curiously "Yes, if you want to keep being his friend you must stop smoking," Julius advised. And from that day, he decided to quit cigarettes. He stopped sneaking into Derrick's room to steal his cigarettes, yeah he needed to come clean he reasoned. As he laid on his bed doing his assignments, he heard his mother scream his name from the living room. He got up in a hurry and walked out to meet her. He found her standing angrily with Derrick beside her, he was trying to calm her down. "Get your ass here right now!!" She yelled as she saw him. He wondered what he had done wrong. As he approached her, She grabbed his ears and twisted it so hard that he let out a

They got to Lopez Mateo at about 5:30pm in the evening. He couldn't help but look around his Father's mansion which was so strange to him now. Emilia opened the car and brought him out with his bag and they both proceeded into the house."Welcome home young master," the gardener greeted on sighting them. "Eden!," a lady in her early forties cried as they walked into the house. She used to be his nanny. She rushed towards him to carry his bag while she ruffled his hairs and Eden smiled.He stood beside his mother at the foyer waiting for his father. Not long, Emilio walked down the stairs with a lady probably of same age with Emilia. She was carrying a baby in her arms with two little girls running down the stairs happily. Eden wondered who they were."I can't remember telling you to keep standing," Emilio slammed as he walked towards them."I have better things to attend to instead of sitting around this damn place looking at irritating faces,"Emilia fired "I take that as an insult E

The whole family ate dinner silently that morning with Eden excluded."Where is Eden?" Juliet whispered to Clement who was sitting beside her."I don't know, he's sleeping" ... Clement replied grumpily."Is he alright?" Tracy whispered to him"I don't know, go check on him yourselves.." He grumbled."What's the matter with you all?" Grace asked, looking at the children."Nothing mom, we were just asking about Eden," Juliet replied"What is your business with him?" She asked"Um.. He's not here for breakfast so I was worried.. Don't know if he is alright.." Juliet replied."Maybe we could go check on him!" Tracy voiced."You will do no such thing! Now eat and go to your rooms now!" Grace slammed and they all nodded fearfully before turning to their meals. He laid on the bed with his body aching so hard. He couldn't get the memories of last night off his head. He had cried out his eyes till morning without Clement noticing. The verbal abuses he received from Derrick was nothing compared

The cold morning breeze swept across his face as he struggled to raise his eye lids. The nightmares were here again. This time around he saw Grace and Derrick laughing maniacally as they chased after him from behind. "No... No... No!!!!! No!!!!!" He screamed and woke up panting heavily. He looked around the room fearfully and noticed he was in a strange place. "Hey... Are you ok?" He heard a lady's voice converging the room. The room was bright with the lights from the sun penetrating from the windows. She walked Into the room dressed in a black nightie and he flinched on sighting her. "Hey. .. Don't be scared…" She said as she approached him on the bed. "Where I'm...I'm..I?" He asked fearfully as he continued looking around the room. "You're safe with me..I've succeeded in reaching your grandma and she's on her way here" she replied with a warm smile. On hearing that, his nerves relaxed and he exhaled deeply. His body ached badly and his lips were sore and swollen. He held on
