Still Alive (Part-10)

A large man wearing shabby clothes, looked very week entered the room. Even he couldn't stand straight. It seems like he haven't ate anything for many days. He had red marks on his hands and face. His one eye is swollen up and another is a prosthetic eye.

"Dad! You?" John shouted.

Jessica ran towards him. Hughes him and said " I can't believe my own eyes. You Thomas..it's really you. But how is it possible. Jack himself went to Dubai and saw your dead body. Tell..tell me what was the reason behind this? Why you had hide yourself from us for so many years? You know how tough it was for us to spend time without you? How difficult it was for us? Tell..me I want to know the truth." Jessica cried continuously.

Jo ordered her to leave Thomas and stand on the other side.

" You know dad we miss you a lot, me, mum, Jack.."

" Please.. please don't utter the name of that bastard in front of me. I hate him." Thomas shouted and took a deep breath to control his anger.

Jo asked whether Thomas will say everything or he himself have to do so. But then he said " I think it will be better if I give the introduction and then you will start."

" Ok, so let me tell you how I find Thomas. Few days ago, when I and Tony came here to collect the black money, we had decided to check everybody's room so that we could get some clues. We had saw Thomas first time in a photograph on the wall of Jessica's room. Then in John cupboard l got an album of their family. I and Tony saw his photo again there and we saw his prosthetic eye and asked about it to Jessica. Tony haven't said me anything at that time but later he said me that he couldn't remember properly but he thinks that he had saw Thomas somewhere before. Then I said him that it's not possible. Tony also agreed to it. Then he could remember and said me later that Tony met a man like that in front of Smith Mansion, when he went there in search of Smith, he met a man there and asked him about Smith. His face was covered with a shawl but he saw his prosthetic eye. He also said that he saw a mole beside his eye, which was similar to that of Thomas's photograph. Without wasting a second with left for Smith Mansion. We searched each and every house there. Tony described the man's physique to everyone but nobody could answer. But at last a man could recognise him and said that he saw a man like that entering into Smith Mansion. But we knew that the whole family went for a trip. But then also we reached there.
And we found him inside the outhouse. Thomas got scared seeing us there. He said that he is the security guard there. But Tony was damn sure that it's Thomas. Tony already took a photo of Thomas from his house before. And took it out and asked whether he could recognise the man, pointing his finger towards Thomas's photograph. Thomas got scared and tried to fled away. Which made our doubt confirmed. But unfortunately, he couldn't. We caught him and took him inside our jeep. And we then reached to an old  cottage beside the highway. And he was beaten up brutally by us so that to accept the truth by himself.

Then..then I think Thomas you say what had happened then."
