TWO YEARS LATER

Lisa

It's been a long time since my half-brother and half-sister died, and since then, I've recollected most of my memories.

Saying that it was a wild ride would be an understatement of the century.

Right now, I have everything that I worked hard for, the wealth, the Manoban family name, Jennie, my beautiful wife and a one-year-old son, Louis who is now sitting on my lap, while staring at me with his golden-brown eyes, that's identical to my own. He's giving me a mischievous smile and I can't imagine a world where I don't have this little one and his mother in my life.

To achieve all of this, I've made some sacrifices in my life, gotten my hands dirty, but I guess that's a part of it. If you want something so badly, then you can't let values, morals, the right, and the wrong, stand in your the way.

You need to own that shit, and that's what I fucking did.

We all have skeletons in our closets. Some keep them hidden under their beds. I have mine too. I kept them locked in a chest, and the chest was buried somewhere deep where no one else can find them.

My son and I were sitting in our private theatre, watching one of my old tapes. He didn't understand what was going on much, but he pointed his chubby little finger at my father who appeared on the screen while the tape was playing.

"Dada!" He said, while pointing at the screen.

I laughed, "That's your late grandpapa, buddy." I showed him the thirteen-year-old me. "And that's me, your dada."

Jennie had not seen these tapes, and I had not shown them to her for good reason. They were not meant to be shown to my wife.

You'll find out the reason pretty soon.
