I headed straight down to the hospital to see my grandfather. I didn't like the fact that I was running the company in his stead yet he wasn't present to still give me a few guidelines. My grandmother was the only backbone I had at the moment which I didn't take for granted but would have loved his input

Conducting secret meetings and also going to school in the morning was beginning to take a toll on my mental health, all I could imagine at that point was how I could be free from this. It might not be easy, but I knew that I was going to find a way to break through it.

I spotted my grandmother's familiar hair from the glass mirror and paused. It seemed like she was having an intimate moment with him, and I didn't want to interrupt her just like that. I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if she didn't take this chance.

"Hey, I have been hoping that one of these days you were going to surprise me by opening your eyes. The doctor says that you can hear me if you really put your heart

    My heart skipped a bit immediately. I was given the envelope containing a document that my grandfather wanted me to have. This was only done when a person was about to die, and it was supposed to be from the lawyer, not the Doctor. I knew that my my grandfather wasn't the most conventional man therefore inciting more fear inside of me.Just as I was about to flip the book open, a voice called behind me. "I suggest that you do not open it here, but till you get home so that you do not get overwhelmed. Can you do that?" He inquired from me and I was at a loss for words. I itched to tear the envelope open and see whatever was inside but decided not to according to the instructions. My grandfather could also be testing me and this was my chance to prove that I could be trustworthy. My mind reeled with various possible scenarios but nothing was as fixated as him dying. I didn't want to imagine him leaving just now. My head suddenly began to itch are the same time my hands did. It was a s

    I arrived at the hospital in a jiffy and was afraid when I saw Annie hooked up to various wires. I couldn't help but panic at the sight. "What happens to her? Is there any problem?" I inquired from the Doctor who was busy charting something. "I need you to calm down, Master Jordan. You were the only person that we could reach out to because of your contact on speed dial. I believe that you can contact her parents, right?" He inquired from me, making me shake my head. I had never visited her house. How was I supposed to know what her parents looked like or have an idea of their numbers? "You can always reach out to the school I believe that they have proper information about every student. She is my friend and..." I trailed off, realizing that this conversation was not necessary especially when we had an elephant and the room we needed to dissect before things went out of hand. "How is she feeling and do you think she's going to get better anytime soon? I can't stand to watch her un

    Two Days Later, I sat in my grandfather's office and gazed around trying to figure out what exactly was wrong in this mix. I had everything under control, or so I thought, but there was something still weird about occupying a place where someone else had made his residence. Maybe it was because I had not been officially inaugurated into the office, so I always had this feeling that I was a temporary replacement and it made me want to work harder so that people could respect me. I gazed at my laptop screen, expecting to see an avalanche of messages, but was surprised to see it bare. Whoa, it was supposed to be a relaxation period for me but I suddenly had the nudge to do more. I wanted to impress whoever had the chance to come in contact with me. They didn't need to feel my grandfather's absence. I knew that filling into his shoes was going to be a huge problem for me to deal with but I guess I had to do it as soon as I could so that I get ahead of my mates who probably hadn't

    Donning my suit and inspecting my full length in the mirror gave me the confidence boost that I needed. I was looking smart, and everyone around me attested to that, starting from my grandmother, who had hyped me up. "Do you think that this is going to fly?"She nodded. "They would be stupid enough not to allow you present simply because your grandfather is currently indisposed. I don't know if anyone is going to take that step but I'm sure that the minute they hear you speak, they will be convinced without measure." She responded, shooting me a warm smile. I had never wanted to get involved in this conversation unless there was something important, but according to what I was hearing, I guess I was doing a damn good job at my grandfather's company. "How have you been coping with my grandfather's sickness?" I said while putting my cufflinks in place. A sad look appeared in my grandmother's eyes but she quickly brushed it away. "Today is not about your grandfather; it's supposed to b

    "Dad, I need you to see this!" Mikky yelled throughout the house as he rushed to where his father was sitting. His hands trembled when he saw the news. Who would have ever imagined that this son of a gun would have such affiliations? Not only that, he also had more ranks than him. "I couldn't believe my ears when I heard it on the news but now it's beginning to sound true. Did you ever notice him in Langston consortium whenever you went visiting?" Mr. Coker was a bit stunned when he saw the news. How the hell did Jordan manage to sneak himself into such a large corporation pretending to be the long-lost heir? "It's probably a stunt, you realize that that boy has a lot of tactics up his sleeves and is only looking for a way to come back here and prove that he is something when he isn't?" He said, his voice also slightly trembling because he understood the gravity of what had happened. What if this boy was the one behind the disappearance of his shares in that company and he was only

    "Master Jordan, I hope you can Grant us an interview. This is the best news that has ever graced our platform. We were the first carriers of the news and that has skyrocketed our magazine. A lot of people have been trooping in asking that we sell private information about you to them, which we have declined. I need you to just grant me an interview which I promise you is going to bring us revenue." Mr Sanders from the city press house said, all in a rush, expecting that I was going to be psyched up by his proposal. Did he think that his money was going to make any changes in my life besides that which I wanted? I stared at him for so long before deciding to speak. "It's a pity how most of you go about selling stories that are not true simply because you want to gather traction. I am not going to be a party to any of this nonsense you are willing to put out. If you cannot find stories on your own then count me the hell out." I responded I only picked up his call simply because I tho

    "Hello, can you come as soon as you can, I think your grandfather is recovering!" The doctor said over the phone and my joy knew no bounds immediately. I jumped into my car and drove off. I knew that I was taking a risk because I had not gotten my license but with my position, I guess I could flex some privileges.Upon arrival at the hospital, I could feel the giddiness in the air as I moved in anticipation. Finally, my grandfather is going to be awake and take over his place. This was the most exciting news I had heard in a long while even though I was newly inaugurated into my office."Mst. Jordan!" The doctor called, falling into step with me as I rushed towards my grandfather's ward. "Why don't we discuss this in my office first before you go and see him so that you can prepare your mind for whatever you encounter." He said, making me worry about what could be happening to my grandfather in such a short time. "Doctor, I need you to just tell me the truth. Did you call me here jus

    The hands of grief stretched towards me, enveloping me in its tight embrace, leaving me with no space to think. The weight of the situation dawned on me. My grandfather was gone. How was I supposed to cope in his absence? Why did all of this happen so fast? Although I didn't weep, like my grandmother was doing I felt the hit in my chest. There was no way anyone could have told me a few months ago that my grandfather was going to pass and I would have believed them. I would have fought them to the last but here I was without anyone's comfort. I was filling such large shoes. The fact that he still had every hope of being alive gave me the push I needed, but right now, I didn't feel like I existed. I could feel the jitters run down my spine with no one understanding the gravity of what had happened."I'm sorry for your loss, Master Jordan." My new assistant spoke in the distance.Grief has a way of dealing with a person's psyche. I felt inadequate. I couldn't run to him whenever I had

    The Next morning.I headed to the counter in the police station about to turn myself in since they had not come to arrest me themselves. "Mr Langston Junior." A man called making me turn. He looked like a sergeant. "Right, Sergeant Hudson. Can we discuss this in your office?" I inquired, this wasn't a safe space for us to continue this discussion.He also gazed around realizing what I was running from. With a small smile, he nodded, "Of course, yes, I don't think it would be polite to speak here." We headed into his office together with Josh as my witness and my phone recorder."Please take a seat." He motioned to the chairs opposite him.I felt a certain way by which he motioned to me but I didn't want to take this to heart. Maybe he was only trying to pretend not to have discussed anything with me. "About Mr coker, how far have you gone with your investigation and what have you found? It's already getting too l

    I paced outside my house as I contemplated what to say when the pressmen finally arrived. It wasn't going to be an easy deal but I knew I was going to work with that and find the solution abruptly. The sound of the doorbell had me jolting awake as fast as possible. They were here. I decided to have a sit-in conversation with the press because that would be even more comfortable for me to deal with than to undergo the pressure of rushing to do whatever I was told. "I believe that you understand everything that is to happen, right?" I asked Stephanie, one of the crew members, who in turn stopped one of the cameramen. "Mr. Jordan wants to be sure that everything is under control. He hopes that no one has leaked his address to the press." I didn't say a word; instead, I kept on looking at both of them, assessing the situation; if I wasn't pleased with the new development, I could always reach out to a contending news station. "I think we should begin before more stories are put out

    "I think we should consider them and not just kick them to the curb. You can't host everything all at once." Josh said tentatively, staring at me after the meeting ended. I didn't think I had anything to say to them besides the fact that they should realize so many things had happened and it was my duty to keep to my grandfather's words. "I don't think I quite follow. If you have anything to say maybe you should go ahead and stop talking in parables." "I mean don't keep on incuring enemies for yourself when you can just give them what they want." He advised. Josh knew nothing about running a business, I guess that it was more like a charity because of the kind of person he was. "What do they want? To take half of the proceeds while doing nothing I'm still expecting me to go on with the wrong figures they have been playing with? Of course, you have all people know that I would not get involved in such stupid matters.""I would rather sit here and find a solution myself than we can

    "This is how the plans have been drawn from the beginning and no one dares to change it." I showed them the sketch my grandfather made shortly before his passing. "According to the lines drawn over there, I have seen that he wanted a certain percentage to be given to certain people and not the way you are trying to share this and make us feel like we do not know what we talking about." Mr Beckley spoke up again. I guess I was going to have to read out some of the greedy people. "If you understand the lines pretty well, you would also realize that it leads up to utilizing half of my money. If I spend half of my money getting this contract, how do you suppose I am supposed to share the profits?" I asked with a smile, waiting for him to answer. The answer was pretty evident, but what good would it be if I didn't make them understand that they were only trying to make money off this without having any long-term plans? I, who had one, was going to cash out of this and get all that I co

    The Draft. I stood before the podium the next day, addressing my partners, "Good morning, everyone; I have received the news of the scandals circulating the blogs, and I must ensure that my partners also understand that this is not something I wanted to happen." I began.A few elderly copartners looked at one another, not expecting the line of conversation my statement was taking. If there was anything I had learned from my grandfather, it was to be in control of every situation I found myself so therein lay true strength. If I shook just one big blow, then I probably didn't have what it took to rule over people who were ready to take me out. A few people couldn't bear my nonchalant statement and decided to murmur. "If anyone has anything to say, I think this is the best time to address it, or we remain silent after," I mentioned. Not everyone was entitled to explanations, especially on my end, because I had a lot to deal with, which included just staying away and fighting my batt

    As soon as I opened the door at night, I knew that tragedy had struck. My grandmother stood with her hands akimbo staring at me as though I had killed a man. While that was figurative, I understood her point, she was pissed that a different accusation came up, and I was very reluctant to answer her query. "Hi, Grandma. What have I done again this time?" I inquired from her stylishly, hoping to hear her side of the story and know how to begin to beg her to listen to me not because I was guilty but because I didn't want to see her unhappy. She sighed softly, "I don't understand why everything is happening all at once and you seem to be enjoying the attention you are getting. Does this mean that you love the stupid news about you online? You and I know that you are not that kind of a person why do these people keep coming after you?" She asked. I shrugged, "because they can. I have become a celebrity overnight and it's their only way of showing that they love me. I can't fault them fo

    A few months ago I would have jumped to defend myself, but as someone who has faced different propagandas, I had come to realize that most of these people enjoyed saying things that would lead me into more problems and it was my duty to ride on that and make it into PR. Josh kept calling my phone and I kept on ignoring the call. I was of the opinion that if I wasn't guilty then I didn't need to be afraid whenever lies were spread about me. I watched Annie try as much as possible not to stare at me in confrontation because of our relationship. Her attitude was going to determine if I was going to entrust her with so much or little. This was just the beginning of the various things I was going to face as the time went on so she needed to be prepared. Annie lost patience after some and texted me. “What is it I hear about you having intercourse with a strange person? Why aren't you even addressing it? Do you think that no one was going to find out?” Okay… this was about to be an avala

    A Month Later, Life had been good to me because I had reshuffled everything that wasn't in the right position and decided not to allow things to bother me anymore. Annie was recovering nicely, and Mikky had learned not to interrupt me especially when I went to school. I had become the Golden student, and he was relegated to just being some problematic student. He was mandated to repeat his exams especially the one Mr Braxton had helped him with. I knew he was going through a lot but who cared? Definitely not me. I loved the flow and wouldn't change anything besides just upping my game. Josh and I were also having a lot more wins this time around and I was glad to see my friend finally smiling. I knew that it was always the calm before the storm, but I was trying to build more capacity to handle the hit whenever it came. I hadn't finished speaking before I received a message from my friend in class. "I think you need to see this information circulating social media. My best bet is

    Standing at the front of the school gate where I was once humiliated but now donating so much to them was a jump in the stratosphere of things and I loved how much I was willing to go far with getting things done. My first move was removing Mr. Braxton as the principal and making Mr. Hudson the head instead."I have never encountered such a change in social status sudden as this. Who would have ever imagined that Jordan, of all people, was going to be able to find answers that would fit into the school's problem? I would never have imagined that and I think it's the same with everyone here." I heard a few classmates whisper as I walked past them. Josh was my right-hand man because I wanted to improve his standard of living, and the only way to do that was to give him a job that would make him forget his poverty. A few students rallied around me as I moved but were unable to speak any ill words, unlike before, when they would have gone ahead to brandish me with different names. I ref
