I don’t know how to live this life anymore. thanks to you and mom my life is over. Hope you tell your son the truth..
Nora.. ”
Joe’s face was we-t with tears as he finished re-ading. ” It can’t be, oh my God what have we done?” He opened the next drawer and got some pills to calm him down. His Blood pressure was rising and he felt the numbness in his legs returning. he got his phone and dialed Nora’s line but it went unanswered, he tried several times but nothing.
” What do I do?” Joe struggled putting down his crutches and sitting in the chair panicking. his shi-t was we-t with sweat in minutes. ” Racheal, oh my God Racheal what have we done to our son and your dota. ” he covered his face crying and weeping like a woman. he felt the weight of all he’s ever done wrong push in on him. He felt like the past had come to hunt him and had no idea how to escape the dungeon he was tied in.
He called Nathan “son Where are you?” he asked immediately he picked it.
“oh dad it’s a surprise for Nora. am waiting for someone in town and will be back soon.”
“plea-se Nathan come back here now! ” He told him almost screaming.
“but Dad what’s wrong you sound awkward. is everything alright? Tell me what’s wrong dad..you are scaring me..” Nathan told him sounding really worried..
” listen to me son just leave whatever you are doing and come back immediately. it’s about Nora.”

“What? What happened to Nora dad plea-se tell me alre-ady.”
” just come back plea-se I beg you” Joe told his son tears and sweat running down his face..
“ok dad am coming now.”
He cut the line and as he speed off joining the main road he dialled Racheal’s line.
” am sorry mam something c@m£ up and I had to rush home. plea-se just come to the address I text you directly. i will meet you there.”
“okay that’s ok my dear” Racheal answered in a calm voice..
Nathan accelerated immediately he cut the call..
Driving throu-gh the gate he ban-ged the door and ran to the house.
” dad ! ” He called out, “where are you? Nora! ” He called again not knowing whether to check on his father first or Nora’s room.
he decided to ran to Nora’s room first and when he peeped saw there was no one, he dashed back to the father’s room.
“he’s in the study” the maid told him before he could open his father’s be-droom.
He took some quic-k steps and opened the door and saw his father sitted silently and he was alone.
” dad what’s going on?” He asked moving slowly to him. ” where is Nora? ”
Joe wiped his face ” come here Nathan” he said indicating him to sit down.
Nathan reluctantly sat looking unease.
“Am here father plea-se talk to me you look bad. what is it? plea-se tell me my Nora is fine ” he said desperate..
“She’s gone Nathan I have no idea where. she left close to an an hour ago.”
” what was that? ” Nathan asked his facial expression changing from curiosity to devastation.
” no she can’t leave me just like that.what happened? What did you do dad! ” he screamed standing up.
” calm down Nathan let me explain.” Joe tried to speak
” oh dad I swear to God if you hurt her I will not forgive you”
Joe shook his head, “sit down Nathan plea-se I have to tell you something ” he begged in a low tone. not knowing where to begin from. The look on his son’s face was the same he had when Nancy died and it scared him. He knew what was coming will destroy his son’s life and he was not sure how he was to survive his own son rejecting and leaving him all alone again.
“Nathan Am sorry, trully sorry for what am about to tell you.” Joe told his son who was just looking at him waiting for him to spit it out alre-ady.
Joe got a letter Racheal wrote to him and handed it.
” what’s this?” Nathan asked surprised seeing his name written on the letter with an unfamiliar hand writting.
” re-ad it son” Joe whispered, ” that letter changes everything.”
Nathan re-ad the letter and repeated trying to make s-en-se out of it ” dad who wrote this, my mother? Racheal? What’s this ? plea-se say something ”
Joe sighed..” son listen to me, I didn’t plan or intend for any of this to happen and am sorry. That letter was written by your biological mother.Nancy your mom as you know, wasn’t your biological mother.” Joe went on explaining all the details about Racheal and how she left him as a baby.
Nathan shook his head. “so my mother left me? And you were the cause dad? What kind of pipo gave birth to me?” he frowned.
“As though having a drun!kand womanizing father is not enough, my own mother dumped me like I was nothing.” he cried unable to control his anger. he felt his heart break and everything seemed like a dream.” No wonder” , he went on, “you treated my mother like she was nothing …”
“Son plea-se forgive me” Joe cried “am so sorry you have to go throu-gh this. the worst p@rt is now you cannot be with Nora.”
“now what dad? you are now going to take away the only person who keeps me going in this crazy life You brou-ght me up? ” Nathan screamed at his father
“you know what dad? To hell with your bulls***, am out of here and am getting my woman too. ” he said walking to the door.
“I don’t care about you or that woman you call my mother. In fact if she’s alive tell her she’s not my mother. I burried my mother and it’s all your fault. ” he snapped.
“St©p Nathan!” Joe shouted. ” I said you can’t be with Nora and am serious. just listen to me.”
Nathan let a weak laugh tears still filled his eyes. ” why?” He asked looking at his father.
“Because Racheal is the mother to Nora and Nora found out the truth now she’s gone. I have no idea where to.” Joe told him extending the ph0to of Racheal to him.
Nathan remembered the pics in Nora’s phone and indeed it was the same woman. “she’s Nora ‘s mother Nathan and your mother too.” Joe said almost whispering
“Oh God! ” Nathan cried, ” no plea-se tell me this isn’t true, plea-se dad she can’t be my sister. oh my God what have I done to deserve this purnishment ?” he cried sliding on the wall all the way till he sat on the floor..
“oh plea-se it can’t be. dad you have killed me ” he looked at his father his face full of tears and the most devasted look Joe had ever seen. he held his chair squee-zing it ti-ght, his son was suffering and it was all his fault.
“Forgive me son” he begged “plea-se am so sorry I didnt mean to put you throu-gh so much agony. believe me am sorry.”
“Believe you dad? Believe you, how could you do this to me? how could you.. I …I ..can’t do this right now” he stammered standing up and heading out.
“come back Nathan!” Joe called him, but he went straight and locked himself in his be-droom.
he sat down leaning on the be-d and cried bittery ” no my God this is not happening.” he hit his head “come on wake up Nathan. it’s all a bad dream ” he told himself.
After crying for some time he got his phone and dialled Nora’s line. the first went unanswered and he redialed it , it almost cutting before he heard a very low voice of Nora on the other side.
” babe, where are you ? plea-se come back here. where are you i come pick you up, tell me plea-se.”
” am sorry Nathan but I can’t am going far away from here. have you talked to your father? ” She asked him.
“Yeah I have but babe, this cant be true. You know i love you there must be a mistake somewhere. plea-se come we talk about this I nee-d you Nora plea-se come back my love.”
“St©p calling me that ” Nora cried “we are siblings don’t you un-derstand ? it’s an abomination. what we have done is not only immoral it’s a curse. plea-se forget you ever knew me Nathan I won’t come back.”
“No no. .listen Nora you can’t do this to us plea-se. come on we love each other. it doesnt matter what anyone thinks just listen to me.” Nathan pleaded
“Oh Nathan st©p it now, just listen to your self. what you are asking is impossible. forget it” she said cutting the line.
“oh plea-se dont cut.. ” Nathan cried, he tried to call back but Nora switched off her phone.
“plea-se plea-se Nora don’t leave me now plea-se….!” He screamed crying.
