HIS TRUE BEAUTY

DADDY MUMMY IS LEAVING



I was trying hard to sound normal, but i was actually scared about what his reaction is going to be, not until now have, I realized the pains I blindly subjected him to.

“First, let’s tell Mom and Dad that they’re are grandparents”Jessi said excitedly interrupting in my thoughts I smiled back at her.

She picked up her phone from the table and dialed the number, i looked over to Jessi and then to Drew.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“You two will make a lovely couple”.

I said in my mind.

“Why is the number not going”Shell snapped annoyed and kept dialing the numbers.

“Uncle Drew”.

Junior called out pointing at Drew.

He looked uneasy to go meet him, cus of Jessi I guessed, he is so cute, It’s obvious he loved Jessi at first sight sorry Shell , I ship these two.

****

The next day I visited the company, no one actually recognized me with sunglasses also there were no suspicious looks because they had Shell with them all along.

I was really hoping maybe to see Bruno, I went to the CEO office but … someone else replaced him already.

“This is unbelievable, I actually sensed the behavior difference but I thought it was actually you, so Shell is your identical twin sister?”

Mrs Kate asked shocked.

I nodded with a smile.

She was the one whom Bruno made the manager before he left.

“I tell you, I recently I noticed the striking resemblance between you and the new fashion sensation , little did i know it was actually you! it was you. It was you all over the fashion magazines! Our own Beauty and to to think that you are now the owner of the popular BOLD & BEAUTIFUL FASHION brand, the CEO of the company? I’m completely blown away, i know you can do it, you are going to inspire our girls a-lot”.

“Thanks Mrs Kate, you are also my inspiration, I talked about it in one of my live interview in Kerry Jones show, I am grateful to you , you are a great teacher and counselor”.

“Oh please I did nothing, really nothing. You did this all by yourself, I am so proud honey, and oh our fashion show is fast approaching, will you please be our host for the upcoming fashion next month, I can’t wait to introduce you to everyone”.

She said excitedly.

I smiled back,”I am honored”.

“You look amazing, I mean you’ve always been this amazing but with a alluring confidence”.

She continued gushing over my looks.

“Thanks, I’m flattered”I said blushing.

After some silence, I spoke first.

“Ma’am..”

She looked up at me, paying attention.

“Please can you help me with some information?”

“Ofcourse whatever you wish our Beauty “.

**BRUNO’S POV**

“Dude you got visitors”.

Philip, a friend I made two years ago, and also presently my roomie , came into our room and informed me.

I was surprised to hear that, it is possibly not a gang from the other night at the club.

“Visitors?”

“Sure dude, a nice looking lady and her son”Philip said feebly.

“You got to be mistaking man, I don’t think I know who those are”.

I pulled out a cigar stick and lit it.

“I’m gonna let them in man, she been crying and pleading , I never wanted to bother you after-all”Philip stated heading outside.

“Who the heck are these people …?”I said in my mind , with my hand thrust into my pocket and the other holding a cigar, I walked to the door to have a look.

The door opened and to be sincere, I burnt my finger with the cigarette stick, that was when I realized it wasn’t a dream like I thought few secs ago.

“Bruno, that’s your daddy”.

My heart fastened, the little boy who looked exactly like a young version of me, hid behind his mom, scared of my looks I guess.

I was really ashamed, all I did for these years was gamble , drink and clubbing not to talk of lying with everything on skirt.

“Hello daddy”the little boy said to me from where he was hiding at his mother’s back.

Beauty laughed a little.

“Come on! Don’t hide away from your daddy”.

She said keeping her voice steadily and cleaning the tears flowing down her cheeks, her fingers crossed, shaking at her sides.

My feet was glued to the floor, I prayed that for this dream to be a reality.

The boy stepped forward, a little step, another one till he gets to me and hugged on my knee.

“Daddy”.

My heart melted in a way that I couldn’t hold back.

“I know you hate me already but please don’t hate him..”

Her voice breaking.

I looked away trying to hide my wet eyes.

Controlling the urge to shove junior aside and hug her till day break, I was itching for her all these while.

“I thought it was the right thing to do, so you can bring him home anytime, he is your son anyway, also I…I…. missed you… so much Bruno”.

I looked up and my wet eyes met with hers, she waved at the boy and left for the parking lot, I couldn’t say anything I might start crying out loud so I held back.

“Daddy, mom is leaving”.

Junior said pointing at her almost crying, and pointing at her.
