? NOT ANYMORE ?
? Death why? ?
Episode 21.
? Nathaniel ?
I got home and met mum at the sitting room.
She stood up immediately she sighted me.
I got to her front.
She $lapped me.
I looked at her shocked.
Mum had never raised her hand to slap me.
But today she did.
” Mum” I called.
” If you call me mum, I will slap you once more” she said angrily.
” What’s wrong? I asked.
” Where is rose? She asked.
” Mum, i already told you, she left” i said.
” Liar” she shouted.
” She left? Or you send her away? She asked.
” Mum, I didn’t sent her away” i said.
” Really? The girls told me what happened, how you said hurtful things to her, and how you made her cry and she left because of all what you did to her,she left because of you Nathan” she yelled.
I sighed.
” Am sorry mum”
” Sorry? She arched her brow.
” Will sorry bring rose back into this house? She asked.
” What’s is wrong with you Nathan, has Sara death blinded you that you don’t even care about people’s feeling anymore? It’s been three years since Sara’s death And i told you to forget about her but you wouldn’t listen to me. I brought rose here for the kids but you sent her away with your arrogant attitude” she said.
” Mum i will bring her back” i said.
” You better do because your kids are very angry and sad and it is all because of you” she said.
I sighed.
” Nathan am giving you 72hours, just 72hours to bring rose back into this house” she said.
” Mum..I..
” Grandma, grandma” i heard the kids voice running down the stairs.
They got to the sitting room.
They both looked at me then looked away.
They stood beside mum.
” Angel I..
” Dad I don’t want to talk to you ” she said.
” We will only talk to you when you bring mum back” Mabel said.
Mum looked at me.
I sighed.
I climbed up the stairs.
I got into my room.
Rose disappearance has really affected my family.
But how do I bring her back?
I got out of the room to the sitting room
No one is there.
Maybe grandma went out with the kids.
I poured wine into the glass cup.
I sat down.
Where could rose be?
I held the glass tightly that it broke.
The glass pierced my hand.
I don’t even care about it.
The pain am feeling now is not up the pain I caused rose.
Am really sorry rose.
” Nathan” mum called.
She gasped when she saw my bl.eeding hand.
” What happened? She asked
I just stared at her blankly.
” You are bleeding so much” she said.
” Don’t worry about it mum” i said
She walked away and came back with first aid.
She attended to hand and wrapped it up with bandage.
” I know you felt bad Nathan but you can’t stay here looking for her” she said sitting down beside me.
I placed my head on her shoulder.
” But where will I find her mum? I don’t even know anything about her” I said.
Tears welled up in my eyes
” It’s okay Nathan, you will surely find her” she said.

? Nathaniel ?
It’s been three days since rose disappearance.
I have no clue about where she is.
I have tried my best in looking for her but I won’t give up till I find her.
” Boss” Sam called.
I looked at him.
” Mr Alex will be arriving tommorow” he said.
Alex is my business partner.
We have business deals together.
” Okay, book a room for me in an hotel” I said.
” Yes boss” he nodded and went out
I picked my phone and called mum.
” Mum, I won’t be coming home today” i said.
” Why? She asked
” I have a very important meeting to attend” I said.
” Okay, take care of yourself” she said.
” My regards to the kids”
I hung up.
Sam came in.
” Boss, it is done” he said
” Okay” I said.
He nodded his head and left
I got out of my office.
I got into the car with my Personal assistant.
We drive off to the hotel.
We got Into the hotel.
I got into the room Sam booked for me.
I got in and sat on the bed.
Am still worried about rose.
Rose please where are you?
I pressed the intercom and order for a drink.
I need some wine.
Few minutes later.
I heard the door bell.
” Come in” i said without looking up.
The door opened,
I didn’t even bother to see who came in.
” Sir here is your….
I looked up
Our eyes met.
We looked at each other shocked.
The drinks in her fell.
She looked at me shocked
I stood up
” Rose..” i called.
Tears welled up In her eyes.
” Rose” i called moving to her.
She looked at me and ran out of the room.
” Rose” I called and ran after her.
She got outside.
I ran after her.
I held her hand.
She didn’t turn to look at me
” Rose” i called and moved to her front
She looked away.
Tears rolled down her cheeks
I held her cheeks and cleaned her tears.
” Rose am sorry” I said and hugged her tightly.
She cried on my shoulder.
