The dirt on jewel

Chapter 11

MJ remains a world of different people; those who stylishly dress-up each day,those who are striving for success,those who can't stop complaining and those,who are just mysterious. It's a world of its own,where everything and everyday could be written as a book.

It was a bit late today when I got up to leave,Samantha was still working and I believed that she would be working long hours today,so I thought of leaving first. She had given me some documents to assemble and bring back to her. I did exactly as I was told. But,when I reached Samantha's doors I heard a man's voice from inside the room. I didn't know if anyone was inside,it took me a while to realise who's voice it was. Yet again,this person didn't fail to surprise me.

"Aldwin,why are you back? I have been worried but you should have allowed us to have a little more time before you came." Samantha said in a concerned tone.

I am not someone who likes peeking into someone else's business,specifically my boss,but then I heard Aldwin and it made me freeze to the spot.

"I...you know why I came back,it has nothing to do with you and the family. I just had to come back for Adam Hage's sake. I would not have if it was not for his family!" Aldwin said anxiously.

"But the guy is already dead,does it even matter?" Samantha said uneasily.

"It does! It definitely does for me. You can forget but I won't! Regardless, aren't you just concerned that I would reveal myself? I won't,many people share the same names but that does not mean anything." He said austerely.

"I haven't forgotten anything but you know that what is in the past is in the past. Perhaps,if the man was alive I would have reconsidered but he isn't! Let's not forget that it's a deal Aldwin,you can't reveal yourself,anyway. So I don't worry on this topic,also I could have easily stopped you if I felt insecure but,I didn't. Aldwin whatever it is I hope you sort it out." Samantha replied.

"Don't worry, Sammy I shall do what I ought to do. It's great that for once you have not felt insecure!" Aldwin said,now in a more lighter tone than before.

"Stop calling me that. Times have changed,childhood names should not be recalled like this in an office." Samantha said embarrassed,though they were alone.

"Right,I'll leave." Aldwin said.

I moved right back to my desk so I won't get caught. Aldwin appeared and then disappeared from the room. I went back to Samantha's room and then headed straight towards home,as today there were no part-times.

On my way I recalled the whole event that took place inside Samantha's office just a few minutes ago. No matter how entirely absurd the whole thought was,it was true. My father's name is also Adam Hage and he is dead. Is it possible that they were talking about someone else? Can I just let it go,as if I never heard it.

Sometimes what truth is seems unreal,we might want to believe into what we want to think is true,but reality remains unchanged.

If Aldwin knew my father did he perhaps knows me too? My thoughts were running like wild fire,my body was tired but I kept on walking,thinking harder than ever.

Juan was not home yet and mom was watching television. At first,I considered talking to mom about this matter. She must have some knowledge about it,but then I didn't wanted to leak any information of my workplace at home.

During the dinner I kept quiet,now I wasn't thinking anything in fact I was aghast with horror. The news had piqued my curiosity and then when I failed at any proper justification,I was flabbergasted.

"So today a lady came in and she was with her sons,but the peculiar thing was she recognised me!" Juan was telling mom about his day.

"Recognised you? A woman in a Lamborghini recognised you?" Mom asked excitedly.
