EPISODE 29
4:30*
Adam and the invisible man were still at the school gate when they saw River with a group of boys
“There he is,” the man said pointing at him
Adam waited patiently till River was closer enough, a big smile appear on his face as he approached him with joy
“River, you’re alive…You’re alive, am so happy,” he said and made to hug him but River shift backward
“Who are you?” He asked rudely
“It’s me, Adam, your brother,” he replied
River stares at his friends and then back at the boy in front of him
“Are you ¢razy?” He asked
“What?” Adam asked surprised
“Did you go about hugging people claiming to be their brothers? Are you that desperate for a brother? Why not go to the foster home and adopt one,” River said rudely
His friends laughed sarcastically
“River it…..”
“Hey stop it with that River bullsht, the name is Lewis… And what’s River? Like some ocean wave or something,” he added with a squeezed face
“Maybe his father came from the river,” one of River’s friends jokes laughing so hard
Adam couldn’t take it anymore as he rushed out from there with tears in his eyes
He continues running till he gets to the bridge
“He said he will never leave me, he promised… He promised,” Adam said to himself
He stopped running looking at the cars that passed by
“I hate this life, I hate everyone, I hate myself, I just want to d!e,” he yelled
“Hey, if you want to d!e go over there, don’t d!e here cos I don’t want to see anything that will obstruct this beautiful view,” someone said from behind
He turned to see the girl from the school
“You,” He said pointing at her
“Yes me, go over there and d!e not here, I came here first so don’t make me leave,” the girl replied rudely
“Why is everyone rude?” He asked
“I said you should go over there and d!e, I didn’t say you can ask questions,” the girl replied
“What if I want to d!e here, in fact, I will jump down from here,” he said trying to climb over the bridge
Karan rushed to him and hold his clothes then She started pulling him till they both fell down
“Are you ¢razy? Did you want to ruin my evening?” She sneered
“What? Why can’t you just allow me to d!e?” He fired back
“I never said you shouldn’t d!e, I said you should get over there and d!e not here, can’t you see that I came here first? Now get going,” she shouted pushing him out
“Am not dying again,” he replied and turn to leave
She went after him
“Where did you think you’re going,” she asked blocking him
“Home,” he replied and shoved her aside
She holds his clothes and starts pulling him back
“What’s this?” He asked staring at her
“Go and d!e, she replied”
“I said I don’t want to die anymore,” he replied
“It’s a lie you must d!e, you can’t come and ruin my evening and after ruining it you will still not d!e, never… You must d!e,” she said still pulling him
“You can’t force me to do what I don’t want to do,” he said
“Watch me,” she replied trying to push him over the bridge
He gets hold of the rails and holds them tightly
“This is a su!cide mission,” he said
“Am helping a dying brother,” she replied still pushing him
“Fine, I will jump but I will do it myself,” he said
She let go of him and shifted back, seeing that she has given him enough space he took to his heels
“Come back here and d!e, you wanted to d!e,” she shouted but he was long gone
“Wait until I see you again, you can’t come and disturb my peace and have yours,” she mumbled
“I can’t even stare at the cars in peace again,” she added

Olivia entered the hospital and went straight to her mother’s ward, Mrs. Brown was still laying there with the life-supporting machine
“Mom,” she called gently and seat beside her
“Mom, am sorry, am sorry please wake up,” she said slowly
“Mom, can you hear me cos? I have many things to tell you” She asked staring at her mother
“Many things have been happening please you need to wake up, Karan is no longer talking to me again, she said it’s my fault and she pushed me away, she’s going crazy too…
The other day I saw her drinking alcohol, and the other day she was shouting for help in her room but when I get there the door was locked,” she cleans the tears in her eyes
“Mom, please you need to wake up and come home, am sorry for making dad push you off the stairs, am just stupid like a dummy, I have so many things to tell you please wake up, I missed you so much mom,” she said with tears
She lay on her mother’s chest crying her eyes out
After some minutes she stopped crying and went into the restroom to wash her face, just after she left another person entered the room and looked around, then slowly remove the life supporter from her mother and turn off the machine
