" I am not the only son of my dad,I have an elder brother. He was deprived of the position due to his willful disposition. Initially,my dad froze his account, hoping he would refrain from his inappropriate ways;clubbing,Drinking,womanising...yet, that did not deter him to feel penitent.Basically I am forced as the next in succession to the throne since I am the second son of the family" he elucidated. "Since your brother's account got frozen, what if you keep rejecting and lose everything?"I asked "Angel,I'm not petty,"he replied "What do you mean?" I asked "You would understand later, Willing to talk about you?"he asked I gave it a thought and decided on sharing....why not?besides, we don't know each other like he said so I can share without restraint. "I don't mind "I replied with no response from his end I started..."as the eldest daughter of my family, i have been living my life to please my dad.He's a strict business-minded person,focused on maintaining the legacy his antecedents worked hard to establish which is the family company. I was ten (10) years in grade twelve (12).This is not just about intelligence, but he doubled-tasked me,I did not play like other kids do. I graduated from the UCL's Bartlett School of Architecture at seventeen years old,went to the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)which took me 5 years for undergrad and masters.I took an entire year learning how things operate in the company and as at 23 years,I was handed the position as the next manager of the company.This doesn't impress my dad in anyway.To him this is just a bare minimum.I accepted the fact that he is not easily impressed when I emerged first in my class,in the examination position rank but second for the overall School.He locked me in the room for a day and stopped my mom and servants from providing me with food or water because i was not first in the overall School ranking.Lucky for me,he had an emergency meeting,he went along with the key but my mom had a spare key,she opened the door and sneaked food, water and a juice for me so.....just so you know, I was the only daughter and child of my parents till i returned from school one day while in seventh grade and saw a little cute girl being showered with love from my parents.I later found out from my mom she is my little sister who was stolen after birth. I was told this story sometime ago so i wasn't new to it.I was 5 years then(Weird innit?) and she was just three(3) years old.Ever since her return,I feel left out.While studying art in the university, I was selling some of my sample works which earned me an income.I used that money to buy a mansion a year after I started working in my family's company.That is where I have been living for the past 2 years now. lam twenty-six years(26) now....this a full detail about me.You should pay me because I typed alot " I said "you're right,lmao....you have suffered Angel"he replied "well,it was worth it.It helped me become an independent woman "I said " you are right, Maybe it was worth it"he replied "we have texted for a while now, time to rest"i said "Alright " he replied I smiled to myself.I feel a bit relieve after sharing my past.To every other person,I am just a genius but no one knows about the rasp nature of it all.Theo was right,this was soothing,no judgement- no criticism! I received a phone call from my mom "Angel daughter,how are you doing?" my mom said "I am fine mom, I have missed you mom" I said. "Do you even hear yourself? then what are you doing in that lonely mansion of yours? i have always told you to move home but you would not listen"she scolded "mom,it is not so lonely in here like you think" I said obviously tired from having to say this over and over again "if you say so,anyway, your sister Jane would be getting married soon so you need to come home tomorrow"she said "mom!! so soon? when is the date?" I inquired "So soon? she is twenty- four(24)for goodness sake,if you are going to stay single for the rest of your life,she is not "she said. There she goes...."okay mom,I will be there tomorrow"i ended the call and focused on enjoy my beautiful blue water.
