For a second I feel like the world has stopped looking at him. My legs don't have the strength to stand up, my bones are on fire looking at him alive and fine

Louis Martin

He stands in front of me perfectly alright, the slight wrinkles on his face and some gray hair showing he aged off yet that face is still the same

My face goes pale looking at him, what would happen when you see a dead person alive? Am I hallucinating again? Wait- Liam's message said that it was a hologram. Is he a hologram too?

I narrow my eyes at him walking towards me taking the support of a walking stick. Each step he takes makes a noise, his shadow on me when he gets nearer. That isn't a hologram

"Too speechless?" He smirks

"How?" My eyes flicker across his face, many questions running in my mind "you committed suicide-" he cuts me off "I did, but was alive. Like a second chance to take revenge?" He says, tapping his stick on the floor

Louis Martin has committed suicide-

But his body wasn't found-

I groan realizing it, Julian pulls me up holding my arm making me stand beside him. I couldn't take my eyes off Louis Martin "but….why?" I ask

Why did you fake it?

Why didn't you come back in the past years

Why were you trying to harm me so bad

Why?

So many questions yet I feel the time passing so fast that I can't ask any. My throat feels dry and itchy.

"Why?" He laughs, followed by other laughs. When I look around I see the hall filled with men, almost twenty of them. "Because your good for nothing father destroyed my whole career!" He yells, making me flinch with the sudden change of tone. The laughter dies down

"That fame I built by working day and night to earn some money to feed myself and my brother. That hard earned money just vanished in thin air because of your Goddamn father" He yells, his eyes turning red with anger "I was living low for years for the right time to come, when your family would be at the peak of happiness. I would push you all down"

I feel Julian taking a step back pulling me away from him

Louis clears his throat and calms down"thought that the whole country is against me maybe the death would accept me but NO- I got out alive and by the time I wanted to go back the news of my death spread in the whole country like wildfire" he scoff shaking his head "I knew there was no use so I took the money which I secretly kept in my house and went back to Spain"

I listen to each of his words clearly, slowly my questions getting answered. Louis walks towards me and goes to Julian "he is my brother" he says patting Julian's shoulder. I turn and look at Julian in total shock.
