Son

Chapter 23

Marcus angrily went home to meet his father and explained everything that had happened.

On getting home, he was shocked that the news had spread to them.

"You got into a fight with the same guy again? What happened?" Mayor asked angrily.

"Dad, nobody was watching, how did you know?"

"Are you asking a question without answering my question?"

"No dad, I am only surprised, the guy keep getting on my nerves, and i think the girl she is with, I have fallen in love with her"

"You fall in love with just an ordinary girl and moreover do you think I don't have people watching over you? You know I would be contesting, and I don't need you to fight with anyone for now, well I will have to imprison that guy"

"Dad, that girl isn't just from an ordinary family, his father and mother are very rich"

"What is their name?"

"I can't remember, but they are very rich, just that the guy I am not sure of, the reason I came home is to report mum to you"

"What has she done?"

"Ask her who that guy is to her? She went to bail that guy the day or the second day he was arrested, ask her who she is to her"

"What do you mean by that, okay, do not worry, I will do just that, I will ask her"

"Alright, I will be waiting"

"Darling, Darling" He called out.

"Call her very well dad, maybe she heard and she is pretending not to hear, or she even hear, just call her dad"

"Darling, Darling, I need to see you" He called out again

"I am coming" She shouted so he could hear him

After some minutes, she joined them in the living room.

"Darling, hope there is no problem, Marcus you are back, you couldn't greet"

"Leave those for now, Marcus resay what you said"

"Okay, the guy you went to bail the other day without me or my father knowing, who is he to you? Please, we need to know"

There was a total silence, she wasn't willing to talk.

"Darling, didn't you hear what he said, you went to bail the guy I arrested without telling me right? Let's start from there, tell me the truth before I investigate myself"

"Honey, that is truth, I am sorry"

"What? We sleep on the same roof and I let you know everything going on, so after I told you, you did that without my consent? How dare you do that? Okay, who is that guy to you? Do you want to spoil my ambition?"

"No darling, I am not spoiling or destroying your ambition, I am sorry, I never wish to do that, I can't"

"Can you see dad, I have been suspecting this woman and I told you very well to be careful of her, how can a woman leave her own husband to come and stay with you and you are free with her this way"

"Can you shut up?" Nathan's Mum shunned her.

"Don't you dare talk to my son that way, answer my question before I get annoyed"

"Darling, it is not what you think, I am sorry, I just had to do that, it is not what you think it is, please forgive me, I don't have anything to do with that, I am in support of you, and you know for me to do what I did, I love you so much"

"Woman, can you answer my question and leave all these, who is the guy to you, answer and do not say any other thing than to say who he is to you"

"He is... He is my son, he is Nathan"

"What did I say dad? The guy is busy telling everyone that the same woman gave birth to us?"

"What? This is funny, I told you before you entered this that you need to leave them alone, you need to forget about them totally, and you promised, if I should do what is in my mind you will regret everything"

Nathan mother knelt down immediately, "I am sorry, I am sorry, it is not what is it, I have actually left him for years, and I think as a good mother I shouldn't just be here and my son is in the prison when he did nothing"

"You mean he did nothing? He and Marcus fought and you said he did nothing"

"He did something, I am sorry darling, I am sorry, Marcus I am sorry, I just felt remorse that is why I couldn't talk about it and I went straight to the station, I am sorry"

"No problem, now that I have known I will leave you but him, I will make sure he is imprisoned"

"No problem, you are free to do anything, just do anything you wish to do, Marcus I am sorry"

"No problem mum, I just like the fact that you gave birth to him, but he is no longer your son right? I am yours, right?"

"Yes, you are darling, thanks for accepting me back"

"You are welcome mum"

"How is school? Hope you still have much foodstuff or you need me to help you buy more"

"I still have but I can't wait till it finish, before I had to get new ones, so just get me, and make sure to put it inside that blue car that is the car the driver will use to drive me to school"

"No problem dear, I will get them there"

Marcus left, and they continued discussing.

"Honey please, do not do this to me, Nathan is my son, I gave birth to him, I breastfeed him and I still love him"

"And please who is Marcus to you?"

"My son?

"So?"

"Please darling, do not do this to me"

"Ooh, please let this be the last time I will hear Nathan in my house, who is he? If you are not careful, do not let me do the worse? If people who want to vote for me Starr hear all these? Start hearing what he is telling everyone? He needs to be careful, and you need to warn him seriously to let go off you and my son, if he is not careful, I will let the school send him away"
