The Heirs

Truth

Adrian's POV
"That was new ", said Richard as he passed me a bottle of water
     "It seems you have become an old man bro ", I said as I hugged him
     "I guess I was lacking a partner, don't expect me to go easy on you next time", said Richard as he hugged me
"Go get married bro , you sound like a man missing his lover ", I said smiling
" You always talk nonsense", said Richard smiling
      "Just say you missed me ", I said as I took some of the water
  "Well that would be a lie ", said Richard
"It wouldn't hurt to confess your undying love for me, would it", I said smiling
      "It seems your new lady got you all lovey-dovey, don't rub it on me", said Richard
      "Well she's amazing and I missed you bro ",I said as I hugged him
"I guess I missed you too, well I can't wait to meet the lady who stole this Casanova's heart ", said Richard smiling
     "She truly changed me I guess ", I smiled
   "Last one to reach mum takes out the trash", said Richard as he pats my tummy
      "What are we , one ", I questioned as I ran after him
        "Good morning mum", said Richard as he kissed mum's cheek
     "You didn't tell me you would come this early anyway it's good you are here ", said mum as she smiled touching his cheek
      "I couldn't wait to see that punk", said Richard as he took a cup of coffee
      "Who are you talking about",I asked as I took the coffee he wanted to drink from him as I took a sip from it
       "You are still a child ", said Richard as he shook his head running upstairs
   "And Adrian we are having a party tonight to celebrate your return isn't that wonderful", said my mum smiling
     "I don't need a party mum it's not like I'm staying , you know I only came back for dad ",I said as I didn't want to raise her hopes up
     "Still not a reason not to rejoice, your dad will also be attending the party" , said my mum
     "Is he fit enough for it ",I asked concerned
   "We haven't told the public about your father's state of health so it would be suspicious for him not to attend the party, don't worry he will be alright after all he's your dad and an Anderson never quits ", said my mum smiling
     "Whatever you say mum",I said as I left the room
       "Hey Philip any news ", I asked on the phone as I entered my room
      "I don't think she survived the coma ", said Philip silently
      "She can't possibly be dead ", I said as I disconnected the call before he could say any further
    Ava you can't be dead
Richard
     Going upstairs I ran into a lady , she looked so much like her Ava
  "Sorry ", she said timidly as she looked at her feet
   She looked just like her , who is she and what is she doing here
     "Excuse me, my hand ", she said as she looked at how close we were , I didn't even know I was still holding her hand
    "Who are you ", I asked as I studied her
"I'm Claire , Adrian's girlfriend", she replied
    "Sorry ", I muttered as I left her
"You look just like a family , you must be Richard Adrian's brother", said Claire smiling
     "Yeah ", I said as I hurriedly left her
The last thing I want is to be reminded of her ,Ava is dead , I saw her die
