The elevator finally stopped and they got out and Jude was marvelled at the sight that behold him.

this place is the real definition of Whitehouse, everything inside the place was white and there stood a glass building in the center of the large Room.

Mr Brown walks towards it and he followed suit, he got there and Voiced out.

"Open Up!" Automatically, the door of the glass room opened and they entered.

Jade was Laid on the hospital bed with Oxygen placed on his mouth and Nose.

his head is covered properly and he was still clad in the operation Clothes.

Jude walked close and was amazed at the striking resemblance between the two of them, they were really unidentical and No one Can really get to know who is who between the two of them.

Jude grabbed Jade's hand, a drip was connected to it and wept beside him.

Their father just let them be, he understands the emotion.

"I don't know why we have to meet at this point in life but I understand there's a reason for this. I Promise to stand for you and do all you needed to do till the time you'll be okay and we'll come out together to face our fears and conquer those who made us depart right from toddlers." Jude said with tears in his eyes, his hand stroking Jade's fingers slowly.

The Bowens stayed outside the glass room and watched him in his emotions.

He really had a lot to do.

After Leaving his brother, Jude met with his Adopted parents, the BOWENS and Had a little time with them before heading out with his father to the penthouse.

On getting to the penthouse, he met Dan seating on the Couch in the big living Room.

"Dan!" Jude said, totally astonished.

he don't know it will be something soon like this when his father talked about it.

That means he has done it right from the beginning.

",Hey Jude." Dan replied pulling him into a tight hug.

the last three days had really been different for the two child hood friends.

Jude narrated all that has happened to Dan and Dan was more than surprised at how event took turns just in the matter of three days.

Dan in turn Gave him a shocking gist.

"You remembered those girls we met and the Don Charlton stadium during the school finals?" Dan asked.

Jude kept quiet trying to recollect the girls, they had a lot of girls they have had issues with.

"Oh, Jude you have such a short memory. The girl that you bumped into when you're rushing back to get your pass into the stadium that her friends wanna tear you up for?" Dan explained.

"Oh, I remember now, those spoilt brats, what's up with them?" Jude said, laughing.

"We Met at the Store yesterday when I went to get Something for my Dad." Dan said.

"Let me guess, they embarrassed you?" Jude said, laughing already.

"That would have been better, they asked if you're the one that played in the School finals or not and I don't know what to actually Say." Dan said.

"Don't tell me that you didn't later tell them that it was me?" Jude asked with a furrowed eye.

"I later Did, just to get free off their grip, just me among three girls, pleaseee." Dan said bursting into laughter.

"Whoa, that's good." Jude Said and Dan stopped his laughter.

"Good?

why did you think so?" Dan asked.

"I'm now a celebrity cause of the game and they don't know about my twin yet, that will be a reason for them to think they have mess with the wrong person. imagine Embarrassing a guy that later stole the show at The game where you came to watch." Jude said flexing his muscles and Dan couldn't hold up with his laughter cause the muscles are really tiny.

"Better hit the gym and Get more on those abs." Dan said and Jude hit him playfully.

(Florida)

Jane Came back from school and was heading to enter the house furiously, obviously angry at why her father will chose the driver to pick her today instead of him.

She didn't even knock and just pushed the door open just to see her mom packing her Jewelries in her Jewelry box, her workers are packing other Loads.

"Mom, what's going on?" She asked, showing she was obviously lost on everything.

"Where are your manners, Jane?" Her mom asked, not looking up either.

" Sorry mom, but what's with the packing of Loads, did you have issue with dad?" she said, rolling her eyes.

"No, not at all." her mom replied and she kept quiet, gestured with her hand indicating to her mom to go on and give better explanation.

"Your Dad is being transferred to hold a state affair in Chicago with immediate effect. so we're moving with him immediately." She said and Jane's shoulder dropped.

'Again?' she thought as tears fell from her eyes.

"I know how you feel dear, but it's for the better and you know that your dad wants best for I, you and your brother." Her mom said, placing her hands on her shoulder.

"Mom just don't repeat the same statement all over again, is it a must that we follow him every time, just high school and I've change up to 4 schools, I'm not stable with my education and it's affecting me and my brother, why don't he think about that, but he only thinks about himself alone." she burst out, trying to hold her tears, cause of the workers in the room.

Her mom signalled to all the maids and workers to go out, after this Jane's tears fell freely.

"We don't have a choice my girl, we have to move, you know that's the nature of being a politician here." Her mom said to console her.

"Has my Brother got to know of this?" Jane asked.

"Not yet. but he'll be home soon and he'll be aware." Her mom said.

"Ohhh my goodness, he'll be mad as hell." Jane said and immediately, the door flew open and he comes in, same expression as that of Jane when she just came in.

"What's happening here?" Jim asked.
