Eleanor looked at him in anticipation."I would like to spill the beans raw as it is, he added but then his father Mr Spears stood up, folding his arms in a curious stare. Romsey turned to Eleanor who was assisted by Ellen as she hands him a brown file with the Zenith's hospital logo displayed on it.Romsey opened gently, and the ID number with several stamps from high ranking doctor attached to the inner paper in bold letters.

Eleanor smiled abruptly as the group cheered, Mr. Spears stood up with a grin that made him look younger than his initial age. "I'm proud of you my son" he exclaimed as he walked up the podium. Mrs. Seraphina's eyes widened, she couldn't help but give a frail smile, she knew that she must play along to hide her intents. The shouts of "congratulations" filled the air as Dr. Jose shook Romsey as he turned to leave the hall. His steps were majestic and calculated, his apparel flung around him as he moved. "This is unbelievable" Uncle Brandon shook his head continuously in disbelief as he turned to Xavier who was covering his face from the fixed eyes of the other family members. He shook him gently, his body responding to it, he raised his head with a pretense smile. "Cheers to him, he was just ahead of us" his brow lowered, the sadness on his face was vivid to be felt.

The next morning's winds were swift as the day they'd expected came with a slap on their faces, the wind pulled and pushed the whistling pine trees so they bent and twisted as if bowing to a dusty demigod, their leaves and branches making the same sound as a football's referee's whistle.The cars were parked lazily in the driveway, Spears Mansion seemed lifeless, and the workers and maids were not busy compared to the other days.Romsey stood by the hibiscuses, giving directions, one had sunk in the pocket of his white trousers while the other pointed from item to item. "You'll be taking these items with you while you go see Mom at the hospital, she was rushed down there early today," he said to Ellen who was staring at him as though not understanding the language.Robson and Prince, the new decorator emerged from the hallway a sullen look shown on their faces.

Tell me more about it, son. He insisted, but Romsey seemed to avoid that part of the conversation. He lingered for minutes without finding the right words to use. His father's eyes switched. "Son, I want you to understand that whatever happened between your mom and I wasn't intentional, it was none of my intentions". Those words touched Romsey icily, he sprang up instantly.Yes, son" his father continued. " Back then I was young and rising, my father Baron, who is also your grandfather was a very strict man. He made all the rules you're seeing today." Romsey blinked his eyes in awe. " Also, I considered you a great mistake back then, so I had to abandon your mother in Canada and run back here, I never knew a day like this would come" Mr. Spears sobbed as he turned to Romsey, " I would want you to find a place in your heart and forgive me, son". Romsey's face clouded with hatred, veins thickening on his forehead as he stared at his father. " Yes son, I am very sorry. I tri

Romsey and his Dad rushed out, and two guards hurried behind, bewildered by the haste of the moment.

Back at home, everyone's face seemed to be brighter, illuminating with smiles, a moment of temporal reconciliation played in the room. Romsey returned to his room with ease, he climbed to his bed and tapped on his iPad, a message popped up, and he opened it, glancing at it, the name seemed to be a familiar one, it was Brian Alexandria, Fiona's relative, he had gotten Romsey's contact from Fiona's phone and decided to message him. Romsey read the messages in surprise, he had forgotten about Brian in haste as his mind was crowded with family issues. His lips tightened at a point where Brian mentioned that Lucas had bought his father's house and now they're patching up in a renter apartment, and that Fiona was promoted to a higher rank in the company where Lucas worked, Romsey knew the whole company belonged to his father and couldn't wait for a showdown once he returned to Canada.

Romsey dashed back into the room, his forehead creased with worry, a stark contrast to his earlier jovial demeanor. As he entered the hallway leading to Mr. Spears' bedroom, he doubled over, panting with urgency. Knocking on the door, he pushed it open, finding his father engrossed in a newspaper."Dad, how could you?" Romsey's voice held a polite but firm edge. "How could you summon her to my room without a second thought?"Mr. Spears let the newspaper slip from his fingers onto the table, his expression shifting to one of concern. "Sit, son," he gestured, trying to soothe Romsey's agitation.With a heavy sigh, Romsey sank into a plush brown leather sofa, his gaze locked on his father, who struggled to find the right words to ease the tension of the moment."My son, I thought I was giving you the best gift possible. Her father, Senator Stout Mill, is a man of impeccable reputation," Mr. Spears explained, his attempt at reassurance falling flat.Romsey's features tightened, his eyes n

The next day came with its surprise. The morning sun filtered through the royal curtains, casting warmth over the Spear's mansions. Aurelia's opulent bedroom was not spared as light rays peeped through windows. She stretched from her giant bed, almost the size of a swimming pool, then turned and yawned, her hands pressing on the calling bell, summoning her maids who rushed into her room, filling the room with activity."Hello Ma," a beautiful lady smiled at her. "Would you mind if we take off your clothes and give you a warm bath?"She took some minutes and then, replied, "Cold bath, please." The maid nodded as they gathered around her, changing her from her nighties.Downstairs, the dining table was set and adorned with an extravagant spread fit for the upper class.
