★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Let me know what Ronald what Ronald isn’t able to tell me….

But the problem is…

I’m I doing the right thing….

Daniel gulped and rub on his palms ….

“I don’t know how my big brother will react if he happens to hear that I told you things that I shouldn’t have said…. But the same,he don’t have the right to keep things from you…”he puffed out air

Yh…he’s right…

He shouldn’t tell me this.

But I don’t care and don’t wish to care…

Ronald don’t wanna tell me anything about he’s family…

So he don’t have any right to yell at me when he finds out….

“Ronald’s mom is from Australia…

And our dad is from this imo state in Uguta…

And my Mom,is from Russia…

Ronald’s mom and my mom were best friends right from high school…

Ronald’s mom,Mrs Lucille is a well know fashion designer designers in the states (USA)…

She met our Father in one of her fashion show…

And that’s where their love life began…

Our father then was a popular business man…

He deals in all kind of goods like clothes,phones and accessories,car parts, jewelry ETC…

So as time goes on,,,

Mrs Lucille got married to Ronald’s father…

According to my mother,,,they made a good couple…

Their love life was one (1) of the best…

Mrs Lucille is a novice…

Yh,,because she was surprised that her husband is not also a business man,,but also a drug dealer….

He deals,import and export drugs….

And according to him,,the drug business was more important to him….

And no matter what,,he won’t cease doing the business..

Though they had a lot of argument…

By then Ronald was only Nine (9) year old…

He’s mother couldn’t take in since then…

Leonard,our father,wants a heir to introduce he’s business to….

They visited many doctors,,but nothing was wrong…

Ronald’s mother was still fertile….

Till the day he caught something suspicious about her…”

He paused and smiled out…

“What Happened” I blurted out of curiosity…

“She was taking contraceptive pills…

She didn’t wanna take in ….

And according to her,,she don’t want to have another kid until Leonard pull hand off the drugs stuff….

Leonard was mad….

He yelled and yelled and yelled,,he wasn’t the type that beat woman…

To control his anger,,,he drove out to a nearby bar to drink…

He drank to stupor,,and that’s where he had a night stand with my mom”….he paused…

“Huh…. How did that happened”I asked….

“My mom happens to follow him…

Because Mrs Lucille called her and explained to her what Happened…

And as a friend,,she decided to settle the dispute between the both,as a lawyer she is….

Though the conversation didn’t went well…

Leonard forced himself on her…

He raped her…

“What !!!…. Your mom was raped??”I asked trying to stomach what he said….

He simply nod his head…

Damn!!! That was really complicated…

Who knows her reaction…

“Leonard being a black….

My mom almost sue him to court…

But he came beging…

Promising her it won’t happen again…

In other to forgive him,,,he made a vow with my mom that he will settle the misunderstanding between him and his wife…

He did all this because he don’t want his wife to know about it..

Mainly because,she have high tolerance to shock…

After a month later,my mom discovered she was pregnant with me…

To her,she was shocked and down casted…

She thought that she won’t take in…

And by the way,it’s only once they did it…

She can’t abort her baby,,so she had to confront Leonard…

The news somehow got to Mrs Lucille…

And she fainted due to shock”

My hands flew to my mouth…

“Oh my…poor woman” I muttered almost close to tears….

“She was immediately admitted to his private hospital in California…

When Ronald heard of it….

He cried and blame my mother for cheating with her friends husband..

My mom wanted to clarify thing with him….

But Ronald being the strong-headed type,did not take no or yes as an answer…

Mrs Lucille went straight to Coma….

It was somehow strange,,,…

The next day,,she was declared dead…

According to the doctor,,it was a natural death…

Ronald wailed and cried for the deceased of his mother…

He keep on cussing and pointing fingers at my mom…

To him,,she’s the cause of he’s mother’s death…

And from there,,, Ronald suddenly became cold…

He don’t make friends,he don’t talk,he don’t also communicate with his dad on like he used to….”He paused and sipped from his juice the maids brought earlier…

Wow,,just Wow…

Is that why Ronald behave strange…

Tsk,,, he should have let bygone be bygone…

Why is he still depending in the past….

“After Mrs Lucille burial…

Leonard Father,got married to my mother seven(7) months after his wife burial…

Ronald was all vexed up….

He was forced to attend their wedding ceremony…

He hate seeing my mother,but my Mom…

She married Leonard so as to take care or Ronald,,she wants to make sure that at least she help her deceased friend…

She does anything for Ronald…

But always get harsh statement from Ronald….

To be frank,,,my mom cherish Ronald more than me…

To her,,she knows that Ronald will come around when he calms down…

I couldn’t experience brotherly love from him…

Because he don’t waste time in yelling and beating me…

But still,my mom cared for him…”he heaved a breath,a tears drop off his eye…

“He suddenly disappear at the age of fifteen (15)…

At that time,I was just six (6) years of age…

He left with only his debit card and few clothes…

He’s phone wasn’t with him…

Leonard took it as he’s gonna come back later…

“Five (5) years,pass,no sign of Ronald..

My mother was worried sick…

She always point out for her son (Ronald)…

“Another Ten (10) years passed,no sign of Ronald…

My mom always persuade her husband about RONALD’S sudden disappearance…

He will just keep calling as if nothing happened…

He knows that he’s son will surely come back one day…

And when he’s back,he will take over from him…

He’s just giving him the grace to enjoy his life freely…

Because he’s coming back,is for him to take over his business (drugs selling)..”….

“What!!!!” I gasp out…

“Sir Leonard wants he’s son to take over his drug business??” I asked and he nod…

“Yh” he mumbled…

“But Ronald don’t want to take over he’s business…

According to him,he have a family and don’t want to have his hand stained….

He made it clear to dad that,he won’t have anything to do with his so called business…

And he also don’t want his little treasures to know anything about the so called drug business…

It angered My father…

That’s the reason why he always taunt you…

I’m sorry for my Father’s mentality,,,he just want his first issue to take over from him…

And since Ronald isn’t trying to take over,,,.

He decided to eliminate,the first lady that took in for Ronald….

And pls becareful around him,,he might repeat the same act he did to the other lady….

My father is a ruthless man…

He don’t care about the outcome….

He just wanna achieve what he have been building up for a long time….

If Ronald,did not take over from him….

He will go for he’s loved one…

It’s either Ronald accept being the next in line,,or you get ready to be eliminated”….

I shivered at he’s last statement…

So sir Leonard hand was behind,Ronald’s first Baby Mama’s death….

Oh god…why is this man so ruthless…

“But…isn’t Ronald aware of that???’ I asked…

He was silent for some while…

“He is”

“What!!!! ,,,He is aware of that??” I asked unbelievable…

“That’s what he’s here for,he want to make things clear for his father… He’s acting like he don’t care,but deep down he cared.

Maybe he just don’t want to loose you” he uttered…

I became silent…

So Ronald was acting like this because he don’t wanna loose me…

No..no no, I don’t wanna believe this…

Ronald I know takes me like some shit…

He ….

“DAMN it….it’s almost 3:00Pm. And maybe Big brother might be back”Daniel said and sprang up from his seat…

He looks so restless…

Just why is he scared of Ronald…

He pecked Kiran and Kylie on their already dirty cheeks…

“See you at….” He paused,he’s gaze fixed on a particular person

..

“Weldone sir interpreter”Ronald commented with a clap…

He look so furious and angry at the same time…

“Are you this curious that you had to meet this”he points at his brother.” Thing for answers”he yelled alerting Kylie and Kiran…

I became gobsmack…

Truly,,he’s look is so terrifying…

“Papa !!” The two boys ran to him…

He ignored them, he’s angry gaze still on me and Daniel…

“ANSWER ME NORA, ARE YOU THAT CURIOUS???”He fummed…

Daniel seeing how tongue tied I am, decided to speak up for me…

“Brother it’s not wha…”

He’s word were interrupted with a heavy punch that sent him on the floor…

“You. PUNCH. how many. PUNCH. Times have I. PUNCH. To stay away. PUNCH. From me and my. PUNCH. Family”. Another heavy punch…

Daniel was SURELY bleeding…

OMG…

“Pls stop… Ronald pls stop”I pleaded….
