It's been a week since we adopted Andy but he still not getting out of the room, still stressed all the time, still scared if anyone is near him,  still not eating if I don't tell him to eat...
I managed to teach him to use a spoon, but he still holds it kinda funny but at least it's a small progress...

And for my father who said that he has nothing to do with the boy....  Well  he now prepare his soup and ask me how he's doing.... I knew he can't stay mad forever

Later that after noon he came home with papers in his hand,  he dropped them on the table intront of me, I look up at him then to the papers

"what is this ?" I asked curious as I reach the papers

I read through the lines, and there was some informations about a boy that I'm sure is Andy

"the boy is fifteen Alex not twelve or..."  he sigh And put his hand through his hair
" well there's the name of the woman who gave birth of him her name is Sharon Lee but there is nothing about the boy not even a name they told me that there is some women just give birth and refuse to talk then take the baby and leave some of them even leave the baby in th hospital.. It's sick "

" so... Wh...what then ? " I was confused

" well I searched for the woman Alex and... " he stopped trying to find the words  " I met her and talked to her and guess what ?"

"speak already dad"

" the moment I started asking her she got all stressed she even wanted to leave but I didn't let her until she told me everything... She... She said that she didn't want the baby she was married but had an affair with someone else then her husband caught her, she was pregnant, her husband forced her to do a test to know if the baby is his,  well it wasn't, so he gave her a choice either give the baby away and stay or keep the baby and divorce, but of course she gave the baby away... She gave the baby to the real father she said his name is John Philips she said he a huge rich business man and she didn't see the baby or John till then... That's all she said " he sigh and I kept looking at the papers and at him
So what's the boy's story
Maybe he was kidnapped from his father maybe his father is looking for him
"what about his father John did you look for him" 

" well... I asked about him most of the people told me that he is a filthy rich and that there are rumours about him being a drug dealer but he covers his tracks really good, well don't know...
But the shocking part is that when I ask them if he has a son they all said no they said he was married long time ago but then his wife took her daughter and left... It's really complicated I really don't know what to think... "
Well same for me I was confused did his father gave him away too maybe gave him to people who hurt him maybe to the guy who gave him to me

.....

My curiosity took over so I searched for this John Philips on Google and it showed a man with blue eyes and grey hair he was around 65 years old maybe more I read about all the things he has and his jobs but none of the information said that he has a son

I saved a picture of him and went to Andy's room I thought I show him the picture maybe he'll say something anything..

"Andy little one hi !.." I smiled at him as he sat himself looking at me

" I will show you someone and tell me if you recognise him okay " he looked at me and titled his head
I took my phone and I showed him the picture he looked at it.....


He froze then backed away from Me

He bowed and closed his eyes shut

Flashback

Master grabbed and handful of his hair shaking him forcefully yelling at him
"I told you do not look in your master's eyes didn't I... ''
The boy closed his eyes shut trying to nodd that he understood that he didn't mean to and that he is sorry he didn't even try to stop the pain in his head
''say it say that you are a worthless creature and that you don't deserve to look in my eyes for something as filthy as you are has no right to look at as someone like me GET IT BITCH, SAY IT NOW"  master said the last words slapping him with every word

He didn't even dare whimper or cry out the pain he just bowed down and repeated the words that were carved in his head with a shaky whispering voice...
And then master dragged him to the dirty bed in there, tied him and had his way with him...
He always remind himself to never look at master's eyes....

End of flashback

I looked at him shocked at his reaction he was mumbling
Is this man 'master' to him too I thought this was his father
''andy is this your father ? ''
He looked at me scared to death, he was shaking and his face deathly pale

''mm...M..aaste..... '' he didn't finish what his was about to say and fell on the floor unconscious...

....

'' i dont know what happened dad I only showed him a picture of John Philips... He..... He.. Just freaked out then passed out... I dont know what was that.. I..  I really don't.. He... Dad he said 'master' when he saw him... I.. Uh ''

'' relax... Okay.. Lex relax... We'll know everything... I'm working on it okay..we'll know if his father is the one who abused him or not,...just give it some time... .''

....

I want to know the truth about this so much but at the same time I'm afraid of knowing...
I have a sick feeling about the whole thing
Why did he freak out when I showed him John's picture...
So many questions run in my head
I think I'm going crazy

The only thing I know is, if this man really treated Andy as a slave, abused him, raped and tortured him
I promise I'll rip his heart out of his chest....
