Soon we arrived it seemed every one was celebrating. Deya and her mum  discussed as they kept the things they bought at the dinning table.

I already texted Bryan, finally he walked out.  He looked really weak.

He wore a black trouser and shirt then a pink warm winter jacket . It was hooded but his hair wasn't covered. His hair fell free.

First few buttons of the shirt where open.  black small earrings.

Black Hermès half shoe. Held his car key and his phone.

His eye weak and sad. He is so down.  Bryan please be strong for me. Finally he got closer , I smiled then took his hand moving my fingers into his.

" where is he" Bryan asked me.
" right here - come on " I said

We walked further , deyas  dad came up.

" this is bryan" I said 

Deya and her mum turned immediately.

"Dad"deya shouted
"Se won " deya's mom said

"Why exactly did you bring me here? To see him or to see them " deya's dad  asked angrily.

"To see him. You agreed to meet Bryan" I said

"Am sorry but i won't stay in this kind of environment. bring the boy to another place" he said and rushed out but deya ran after him. Girls and loving their dad. I can relate

"Dad dad dad"deya said and held him tight he pushed her down , she fell on her kneels.

Bryan tried moving I held him by the waist. I looked in his face then smiled

" don't go " I whispered
He took a deep breath then nodded. Deya knelt down and her mum walked out.



ODEYA's pov.
"Dad plesse,why do you hate me so much. forgive me"I said
"I do not hate you i hate your mom, i hate your stupid songs"he said. I held his leg
"Dad plesse,am sorry. Dont go far away from me I still need you"I said.
"I don't have a daughter. I lost my wife but I still had my daughter until u sang. Right now I don't know who you are. Thank God I have Lydia" he said then rushed away.
"Mom whats  so wrong,why does he hate songs so much"I asked
"deya, we should sit and talk."she said

We both sat down on the chair of the pool.

"Deya I understand your dad,he always hated songs but you see I worsened it"she said
"What are you saying ?" I said
"Your dad once got shot in his leg and he got grumpy. always making demands for food and money cos he couldn't work, always angry and grumpy, I was there for him still he didn't appreciate my presence , he wouldn't touch me, he treated me like trash for years" she said

I wiped my tears

"because of my  desire to Sing and be a star so badly I got carried away in my dreame and when I met a man who wanted to help. I lost myself. My beauty Got into my head, I figured I deserved better than a grumpy broke man. he showered me with everything your dad didn't give. attention, money, time, love- I was still very young deya , I still needed those things. Plus he promised to make me a star. He made me feel beautiful and wanted not rejected like your dad did  so-

"So you started having an affair " I said and wiped my tears. she wiped her tears

" I am sorry" she said

" I remember that part. you started neglecting me and dad, you rarely even came home. And I thought you where working but I was still a kid. Dad wasn't, he knew you where seeing another man. You broke him" I said

" am sorry" she cried

"So did he catch you " I asked.

"Yes he did, before exposure" she said.

"And that was  why he didn't let you go but you ran away mum. You moved out because of a man " I said then stood up

"No i didn't deya" she cried .

'Well I guess that was what he thought, and that is what I think too. I can't believe I wasted half of my life searching for you" I cried then ran away wiping my tears. I ran past  Ryan and he  took my hand.

"Deya " he said
"Leave me alone" I said.
"What are you saying - Are you okay " he asked
"Let me go" I yelled then pushed him away. He moved back in shock - even his lips where parted.

I ran away then stopped half way. Why did I yell at him.  He is not my mum. I turned and bryan was walking out with Alison.

I sat on the staircase then cried my heart out. My mum is not who I thought she was

I don't have time. I told my men where to keep deya's  dad and thats where I am taking bryan to

" you understand that deya was hurting right" I said
" I am hurting too, but I can't treat her like that" he said.

I gently sent my hand to his waist he smiled .

"Don't tickle me"he said. I smiled.

Bryan turned on the music in the car then drove quietly. Soon we airrived  then walked in. Deya's  dad stood from the bed. He was genuinely happy to see Bryan

" I knew you would grow to be so handsome" he said making Bryan smile. I smiled

They both sat on the bed and he touched his shoulders

" do you really want to do this- isn't the past better left buried in the past" he said

" no. Not this past. It's a past that has ruined my future. I just want to know the truth, living with a blank memory is so painful. I want to know everything " Bryan said he nodded

" let's try then. Do you remember these" he said lifting small shoes. I smiled. It's pretty

Bryan looked at it

" no" he said
" are you sure" he said handing it to him

" no I- Arrgh " Bryan screamed brushing both hands to his face. I rushed him

" Bryan " I called

" am fine " he said then took a deep breath . Why is each peace of memory so painful- it's the past medication

" it's mine " Bryan said deyas dad smiled

" you told me it was my gift for saving you. I told you I had a daughter so you told me to give them to her - it was your spare " he said Bryan smiled

" we where on our way to the orphanage to register you. It was too risky to take you home, I had my wife and my daughter  to protect. " he said Bryan nodded

" now Bryan , do you remember this injury " he said opening his leg.

" yes - I do , you where shot when we ran" Bryan said I smiled

" you turned to look. You said he was your fathers friend who always brought sweets. Who is it" he said

" I don't know

" try to remember - you turned to look at him -

" I turned" Bryan turned his head backwards with his eyes close and suddenly screamed again , he fell on his kneel then screamed with his hands on his head.

" no Bryan " I rushed him

" let him- you need to let him remember " deyas dad said holding me

" until when - he is in pain" I said

" it would stop once he sees the face he is search-

I rushed Bryan

" Bryan! Bryan ! no Bryan open your eyes please  " I cried. he opened his eye

I hugged him tight

" it wasn't an accident Alison" he cried.
I held him to myself.
" I know baby " I whispered brushing his hair behind.

Finally I moved  him out then wiped his tears- 

" it wasn't an accident" he said ,still surprised
" I know. But you need to calm down then tell me more. " I said  , he nodded.

" who is he, who is your fathers friend " I asked
