Faith was falling in love with her new mother. Her father's wife was an angel. Just yesterday they went shopping for her clothes . Just the two of them . Mitchel,Angela and Laura remained at the house. It been two days living in her father's mansion and she was loving every bit of it. She's experiencing a life that she never got a taste of. Her father was away attending to his duties but she got to admit she missed him terribly. It's like her life changed overnight.
These past two days she only had to wake up, wash up , dress up and head downstairs for breakfast and she would spend the rest of the day in the beautiful garden. There was a big garden at the mansion. It was just too good.Her other sisters would be at school. She couldn't wait to get to school too. Her father said they will talk about school when he comes back. After all they needed to sort out her documents. She couldn't wait...the wait was a torture.
Faith couldn't take her eyes off the flowers in the garden . Everything was just so beautiful.
"Beautiful, isn't it?", Faith was startled to hear a familiar voice. The voice that she admitted she had missed.
"Bryan...!!",she almost jumped with excitement. But of course she didn't. She then felt embarassed with the way she reacted when she heard Bryan's voice.
"How are you princess?",Bryan chuckled as he said. With the way Faith reacted he was certain that she missed him. They became quite close and Bryan had to admit he missed her too.
"I'm...", Faith did not finish her sentence as she took a closer look at Bryan's face. He had a bandaged scar on the face. What happened to him...she wondered. Bryan quickly tried to hide his face but it was too late...Faith had already seen it. This is why he didn't want to appear at work. He wanted his scar to heal first. But still he could not stay away for long. He needed to be by Faith's side as ordered by the president.
"What happened to your face..?", she asked him with concern and Bryan's heart skipped. Someone was concerned about him. For the first time someone care.
"It's nothing to worry about Faith"
"That doesn't seem like nothing at all..."
"Believe me it's nothing..my carelessness caused this", he was a bad liar. Faith knew he was lying to her and she didn't want to force him to tell her. After all its none of her business....,is it not?...of course it's not.
"Well if you say so...", Faith managed to say though she was curious to know.
"So how's your new life...do you like it?", Bryan asked as he sat beside Faith on the garden chair.
"Why wouldn't I like it...it's too good and way too comfortable"
"I agree", Bryan replied. Then silence took over.
After some minutes of silence Faith said,
"Noone has told me about my mother yet. How she looked like and I haven't even seen a photo of her...I haven't even seen any of her relatives yet", There was sorrow in Faith's voice. Bryan understood how she was feeling. There were times when he would have that feeling too. What does his mother look like?. Faith at least knew that her mother was no longer in this world but for Bryan he doesn't know where she is....not even his father. Where are they? He wondered.
"I totally understand you Faith", Bryan said.
"You do?"
"100%"
"How would you know the feeling....?", Faith asked him and this time she looked directly in Bryan's eyes. He quickly turned his eyes to the other direction. It's like Faith could see right through him.
