NATHANIEL
Dad
Mr Williams who has been standing at the door step into the room shutting the down behind him

MR WILLIAMS

Nathaniel immediately did as he was told, mr and mrs Williams also took their sit, the room was a missive bedroom divided into two part the bed area and a little space use as a sitting room.

MR WILLIAMS
Where is Natasha

MRS WILLIAMS
In her room

MR WILLIAMS
Good it will be better if she doesn’t listen to our conversation

NATHANIEL
Dad, mum, what is happening, I know I heard you both right that day, your words was clear.

MR WILLIAMS
Yes, you are correct but it was a lie, your sister never died

Nathaniel wouldn’t believe want he was hearing, it has been twelve years, he was only eleven years old when his parents told him that his sister was dead, they did her burial even if he refused to go because he couldn’t leave with the fate that his only twin sister was dead.

NATHANIEL
No, you guys are kidding right, my sister burial was done

MRS WILLIAMS
No, we are not, it’s the truth, and that wasn’t Natasha burial, it was a friend’s daughter burial.

NATHANIEL
Why, why mum.

He has been trying to control the anger and the betrayal he was feeling, but he just couldn’t take it anymore more, he stands up tossing round the room

NATHANIEL
I was only eleven, what were you people thinking.

MR WILLIAMS
we were thinking of both of you, it was a hard moment for all of us, I had a business rival who wanted to get to me through both of you, separating both of you was the best we could do.
Nathaniel could not hold himself from crying he allow the tear fall.

NATHANIEL
I still don’t get you, how does it connect to the fate that you separate us.

MRS WILLIAMS
We were scared that if both of you stays in same place it could be risky, so we decided to separate you two.

NATHANIEL
Then why the lie about her death

MR WILLIAMS
If we haven’t told you she was dead will you have stopped wanting to be where she was, don’t you something ran away to look for her, or have you forgotten that you almost harm yourself because you want us to oblige to your request, so telling you she was dead made you stop asking for her.

Everything they said was true, he still remember those events, with this he calm down a little.

NATHANIEL
And you never thought about how it will affect me.

MRS WILLIAMS
We did and that was why we brought you back to stay with us so we could be there for you.

NATHANIEL
And all this years you never bothered to tell me the truth.

MRS WILLIAMS
We wanted to but just didn’t know how, please forgive us

Mrs Williams got on her feet

MRS WILLIAMS
Nath, we are really sorry

NATHANIEL
Mum

They both embrace, Mrs Williams was at peace, Nathaniel cried on her shoulder like a baby and Mrs Williams let him pour his heart out, after few minutes she wipe the tear from Nath eyes.
