Mr and mrs Williams finally returned from Germany, they didn’t observe anything out of the ordinary because Nathaniel left immediately they arrived giving the excuse that he have an important text to write that day which was a lie. Nathaniel has been trying hard to get to his sister Natasha but Natasha never gave him the chance to, he has done all what he knows best to get her attention, nothing more then that but Natasha has refused to talk or see him and it was killing him slowly, Natasha hatred toward his brother what growing stronger by the day and she just couldn’t find herself forgiving him even if she wants to, her parents had asked her if they have resolved their differences and she had lied telling them yes, she wanted to tell her mum but later kicked against it, she decided to make it a secret that she even sent a text message to Nathaniel telling him to never say a word to anyone, Nathaniel received the message, he wanted to kick against the idea but didn’t, he wouldn’t want to make matters worse for now, he would have love to tell his parents, even if it was an hard thing to do it doesn’t matter but the truth matters, but now he will just have to hold on till Natasha gives a go ahead.

Since Nathaniel came back few days ago Michael has been observing him and he noticed something was off with Nathaniel, he barely eat, he has lost full concentration at school, and most times he is lost in his own thoughts, locking himself indoor almost everyday, he had given Nathaniel few days to himself hoping he could talk about it when he wants but he was running out of patient, he came back from lecture and went straight to Nathaniel room, Nathaniel didn’t go to school and he came to find out when a course mate asked about him in school that day, he walked to Nathaniel room and knocked, Nathaniel opened the door after the fourth knock, he opened the door and went to sit on his bed, Michael came in almost immediately.

MICHAEL
Nath, you didn’t go to class today.

NATHANIEL
Not feeling it.

MICHAEL
Nath, what’s going on, and don’t tell me nothing.

NATHANIEL
Nothing

MICHAEL
I just told you not to say that.

NATHANIEL
(Chuckle)
Yea I heard you.

MICHAEL
(Calmly)
Nath, you know you can tell me anything.

NATHANIEL
That’s if there is something to talk about

MICHAEL
(Annoy)
Come on men, don’t tell me that, you and I know we agreed no secret between us, so are you going to start now or you don’t seems to trust me any more.

NATHANIEL
It not that, you know I trust you, it just…..

MICHAEL
Sometimes is eating you up Nath, and you have to let it out, come on.

Just then Nathaniel allowed the tear he was holding back to fall, Michael knew then that Nathaniel was really in pain.

NATHANIEL
I tried men, I f**king tried, but how could I
Michael was confused by his words.

MICHAEL
What did you do

NATHANIEL
I was so stupid, Michael, I messed up big time, I f**king messed up
Michael immediately understood.

MICHAEL
Oh God, you had s-x with your sister
Nathaniel was hurt by that words and Michael saw it, right now wasn’t the time to apportion blame on him because he was going through hell already.

MICHAEL
Hey, hey listen to me, it wasn’t your fault, okey, yes it was and it wasn’t your fault.

NATHANIEL
How could you say that, it was my fault.

MICHAEL
Yes of course but hey, you tried.

NATHANIEL
I didn’t try enough

Michael sigh and went to sit close to him.

MICHAEL
listen men, every man always makes mistakes, some mistakes can kill you while some can strengthen you, it depends on the one you choose.

NATHANIEL
This mistake is huge and unforgivable, and believe me I don’t think I can stop this mistake from happening again.

MICHAEL
(Alerted)
You still have feelings for her.

NATHANIEL
That is the problem man, and it worse, I want her more than anything, Michael, what is happening to me, she is my blood.

MICHAEL
Are you sure about that
Nathaniel was confused

MICHAEL
I mean look at it this way, how can you have this kind of strong feelings for her, are you sure she is your sister.

Nathaniel was dumbfounded, he just don’t seems to understand what Michael was saying.

NATHANIEL
What men, are you crazy, she is my twin, same DNA, get that into your head.

MICHAEL
If she is really your twin then you need a strong deliverance

NATHANIEL
Yea I know that already, thanks for reminding me.

Then silence covered the whole room.

MICHAEL
And Natasha

NATHANIEL
She wanted to take my head off

MICHAEL
I will kill you if I were her

NATHANIEL
(Smile)
Me too

MICHAEL
And your parents

NATHANIEL
They don’t know

MICHAEL
And you are not going to tell them

NATHANIEL
I want to but Natasha won’t let me

MICHAEL
Don’t get

NATHANIEL
She doesn’t want my parents to know.

MICHAEL
And you are cool with that

NATHANIEL
What am I to do, I don’t want to make matters worse.

MICHAEL
Then talk her out of it, you guys need to let your parents know, keeping it away from them will cause more damage.

NATHANIEL
And you think I don’t know that, she is not talking to me, she has totally blocked me from her life, and you think its fun for me.

MICHAEL
It isn’t fun that’s why you need to try harder, you have to get to her.

NATHANIEL
She is so mad at me

MICHAEL
I think more than mad, but that isn’t the case right now, the harm has be done already, but you have to do the right thing now by telling your parents, so try and convince her.
Nathaniel knew Michael was right, but still didn’t know how to go about it, Michael words really helped him and he was happy he was able to share it with him because it lighten the burdens that is on him.

Phillip has been trying to get Natasha for the past weeks now but she has been avoiding him and this got him really worried, he has tried all means to reach her but she keep pushing him away. He parked his car front of Natasha’s gate, he has been coming to Natasha house for sometimes now but the gate was never open for him, but he didn’t stop, after waiting for some time he came out of the car, head to the gate and knocked.

SECURITY
(Kindly)
You again

PHILLIP
Yes me.

SECURITY
But I have told you so many times that miss Natasha ordered me not to let you in, and you understand how it is.

PHILLIP
I understand but I really need to see her

SECURITY
I don’t think I can help with that, am sorry
Phillip was frustrated, he didn’t know what more to do or say, he nodded and head back to his car.
