Chapter 12: HOPING TO SAY GOODBYE TO HER
"Mr Romano was at the airport at the moment, he just arrived from overseas. he sent us here to fetch you. the man in black said."
"Please don't be scared and trust us, madam. He added." Suddenly a mobile phone of the man in black nokia1100 rang. he fished it out on his pocket and answer the call.
"Hello sir, the man said and look at my mother. Yes sir! I heard his response to the person on the other line, And he gave the phone to my mother."
"Hello."
"When she heard my father's hoarse voice on the other line, Suddenly the tears trickle in her eyes. she was just listening to what the person on the other line was saying. After awhile She nodded and gave back the phone to Mr Alan.
Mr Alan continued to talk to my father.
Mom took my hand she bowed her head and looked at me, before she speaks "son we need to go with them, aren't you want to see your father, were going to meet him now," I can see the sincerity in my mother's eyes as I can see the traces of tears in her eyes as she finished talking to my father her eyes was glittering of enjoyment and excitement. Just like what I feel at the moment, I felt excited as I'm finally going to meet my father.
No doubt we joined them.
I will finally see and get to know my father, we will be able to be with him.
I'm excited to hug him. many questions in my mind. how is he? Did he also miss us? what happened to him? after he left us and my mother.
I focused my attention on the outside of the car we were almost half an hour away when I noticed that our path was full of hills and trees around.
I felt like we were going up the mountain. after almost two hours of the journey, The car enters the big gate and after a few minutes. It's stopped in front of a big house.
Someone opened the car door, These are two men like Mr Alan and we got out of the car.
At the door of the house we were greeted by rows of uniformed people probably they were servants.
they were all smiling at us.
and I smiled back at them. and upon entering the house we were greeted by a man who was under forty years of age.
Maybe he is my father.
he has an elegant stance and
muscular physique. Eyes are like eagles when staring. He is a tall man.
He was smiling and his arm was open to greet us, he can't wait for us to go nearer to him, his stride towards us, he immediately hugged my mother then me. my mom was crying when she hugged my dad suddenly tears are flowing in my cheeks.
This is how our family got together!!!
Two months later I was busy with my parents on a trip. dad spent his time with us. I temporarily forgot about Lily.
As the school was about to open I asked my parents for permission to visit Lily. but When I went to lily's house It was locked, They may be in town. I waited until the afternoon but still, no one came..when it started to get dark I decided to go home,
After a week I came back again. but their house is still locked. the thing came out of my mind that no one lives here anymore.
One night we are having dinner When my father spoke,
"Son your mother and I decided that We would return to your mother's place. We have built a new house there."
"Son, you will study there and when you finish high school we will send you to America so that you can go to college and take a business administration course, you will inherit everything I have established, you need to take care of it, enlarge it, and expand it even more, for yourself and the future of your family."
"Dad when are we leaving?" I asked as nothing on my mind except on Lily, the last sentence my fathers said was not registered in my mind, it's occupied of Lily if we're going to leave this place, will I meet Lily again in the future.
"Why son? do you want to do something before leaving?"
"I just want to say goodbye to my friend."
"Alright, tomorrow tell Uncle Alan to accompany you."
"Thank you, dad."
Hoping for the last time I still went to their house but it was still closed just like the last time I went here, no trace that they came back. Hoping to say goodbye to her nicely,
I do not know When we will meet again I hope you can read the letter I left. I still hope we will meet again and fulfil our promises that we will unite the two hearts in our bracelet. I said as like she just in front of me listening to my words. I turned around and finally left their house along with the letter I left.
