"When you were a little boy, you said it was your dream to own a restaurant one day. Everyone laughed when you said it but the next day, you started making drawings of what you wanted it to look like. The designs, the colors, all you. You even came up with the name yourself."As he listened to Fred, Van was hit with a sudden feeling of nostalgia. An image pooped up in his mind, a large dining room, a little boy with his parents and siblings. Was it him?Could that be the night Fred was talking about?Not remembering who he was or what his childhood was like was very frustrating, and Van couldn't help but blame Grace. "Do you remember sire, you made a bet with your father about it.""A bet." Van repeated a if in a daze, trying to dig deep into his memories. "I-It was something about drawing…or am I wrong?""You're not sire. Your father said if you completed your drawings for the restaurant and came up with a good name–""-- he would open it up for me." Van had a blank expression on hi

Just like that, their learning trip was cut short after just one stop and they headed back to his place. His mother had been spending more time with them because she said she wanted to make up for all the years they were apart. And because she said she didn't trust Grace around her grandkids. When he arrived back home, Grace was the only one around. "Where's Ivy?" Van asked without looking at her directly. "She went out not quite long ago with Sheryl." She paused for a while before she added. "Van, don't you think we need to talk?""Talk?""Yes. You won't even look at me anymore. I understand how you must feel–""No, I don't think you do. You can't simply understand how I'm feeling right now because even I don't know what the fuck I'm feeling! And honestly, I don't think now is the right time for us to do this. I need to get my head straight before I talk to you." "But Van –""No don't! Really just …don't." Van had started to walk away when she yelled out. "I did what I did to pr

Van never thought that she would utter a statement like that. If anything she was supposed to be apologizing profusely for her offense. Before he could stop himself, his body had gone into overdrive and he landed a hard slap across her face. "How dare you?!" He bellowed. "How dare you open your mouth and say that to her? Are you even human at all? Do you not know the gravity of the offense you committed? Under the law this is basically kidnapping, you should be thankful that you live here and not the police station. Do you think I let you stay here because I love you? Hell no!I was only being nice because I know you have nowhere else to go. Everyday we let you live here you are supposed to find new ways to repent for what you did, but instead of doing that, you have the guts to say something so hurtful to my mother?You know, I didn't hate you before…but now I do." He eyed her from head to toe before storming off. After he got to his room, Van dropped to his knees staring down at
From Prison Bars To Gold Bars. 51. The Meeting
"I asked all of us to have dinner together because I feel we need to talk." Van said after they were all complete. "Earlier today, Fred was telling me about some things and I felt it's time for me to know what actually happened all those years ago. How did my brother and I end up at the orphanage? Why wasn't Macy with us? What was going on at home? I need to know everything.""But Van, the doctor said–""I know what the doctor said mom, but it's my right to know. I'm ready."The woman sighed and started. "That day, Macy and I had gone out to attend a friend's birthday and you boys said you would stay home with your father. While I was there, I got a call from one of the house helps that your father had gotten into a fight with his brother and it was serious. I left Macy with my friend and rushed back home but by the time I got there, the house was on fire and I couldn't find you two. I did my best to search for you, but my efforts were all futile.""Why didn't you go after dad's brot

Van arrived at the rose garden ten minutes later than the agreed time. His reason… he just wanted to be late. While they were dating, he was always the one waiting for her and he wanted to turn the table aound for a change. Sure enough when he got there, she was already waiting inside and she even looked anxious. "You came!" She smiled when she spotted him. "Why am I here?" Van wanted to go straight to the point to avoid spending too much time there. "Wow, what's with the cold attitude? Shouldn't you be happy to see me?"Van raised a brow in confusion. What was going on? "I came all the way to see your face and the first thing you say to me is 'why am I here?' that's mean." She pouted and took a step closer to Van. "Are you really trying to say you don't miss me?"She reached out to touch him but he backed away from her. So it was a trap! And in Van's opinion, a rather stupid one. "What is this? Did you call me here just to waste my time? Well, if that's all then I guess I'll be

"So, how did it go?" Blanche knew it wouldn't be an easy task to convince Van just after one meeting, and the look on her daughter's face confirmed her suspicions. "He told me not to see him anymore." "Of course he did. Did you think he would meet you with all smiles? Of course not!But not to worry, I can still make this work. But first, how certain are you of this?""Of what?""What makes you so sure that Van is actually rich now? I mean for all we know he might just be living with someone in that estate. Maybe he's even a worker at that house.""He's not." "That doesn't really–""He's not mother! I asked someone to look into him and she told me he rented a house there. Mother he lives there with that stupid slut.""Moses's half sister?""Yess. He was the one who bought Pharrell's boutique, I have proof. A staff witnessed the entire thing, she said he bought the place for his wife.""Are you serious?""Mother, that should have been me. Do you have any idea how high that would hav

Van turned his attention to where the voice came from and he was stunned to see a beautiful woman starting at him. She was tall, standing probably a few inches higher than he was. She was putting on a white shirt with black pants and a waist coat to match, indictating that she was a waitress. As she walked towards them, Van couldn't take his eyes off her. The more he stared at her face, the more he was convinced that she was someone he knew. Though her face looked pretty unrecognizable."Mr Tomas, what is going here?" she asked again, but her gaze was fixed on Van."Nothing much Miss Cassie, just trying to get this loser to leave this vicinity." Commoners trying to enter the Golden Touch restaurant wasn't something new to her, but there was something different about him. Though it only took her a minute to figure it out. "Sir," she said to Van, "I apologize if Mr Tomas might have been rude to you but I hope you can understand that the Golden Touch series isn't a place where just an
