Last time, James was dealing with his father, Agwe. He would always give him trouble. Knowing that he can't trust a word his father says. He called Charles for reinsurance.
On Wednesday after school, James was in thought in the clubroom.
He just finished adding the pictures to the newspaper and helping Emi write the newspaper.
Thanks James for helping me revise the paper before we post and print it on Friday. Emi replied. No problem, Emi. Have a great rest of your day. James replied. Bye. Emi replied. Now picking the pictures. James mumbled. Charles walks past Emi in the hallways. Hey Emi, have you seen James today? Charles asked. He is in the clubroom picking from the pictures you took earlier this week at the prep ally. Emi replied. Oh I see, thanks Emi. Charles replied. She walks into the clubroom smiling. As she looked at James, she felt a sense of gloom around him.
Hey James, you look like you are deep in thought. Are you ok? Charles asked. I am fine, Amber don't worry about me. James replied. I know when people are troubled about something. Charles replied. I see I can not lie to you, can I? James replied. Nope. Charles replied. She smiled. He smirked. What is wrong with you? Charles asked. Let's just say my father wants me to decide to do something with him. James replied. So do you want to do it or not? Charles asked. The thing is that I can trust nothing he says. In the end, he always disappoints me. James replied. I see. Your father has another family? Charles asked. You can say that. My mom and dad were high school sweethearts. My mom had dreams and goals she desired. Her Junior year of college, he got my mom pregnant with me. She finished, but her family shamed her about having me. Many years later he in words he wanted admitted, he trapped her. He never apologized for doing it. James replied. That is so horrible. Charles replied. That's just the tip of the iceberg. James replied. He would always make empty promises to me. My mom would have to threaten him. She would always tell him, "Stop disappointing my son. I'm tired of it and he as well." He ignored me. It is all because of his hatred and malice towards my mom. James replied. Now that I look at him, he acts like Mr. Perfect. Everyone loves him. The girls love him. He acts like such a charismatic person. Deep down, he's emotionally damaged. He forces himself to smile. Charles thought. She hugs him around his neck. It's ok to feel pain but shouldn't be alone with it. Charles replied. James cried. He saw his laptop timed out before he saw his face. Am I crying? James thought. He touched his cheek. Charles closed her eyes and smiles.
Amaryllis saw the two alone from the distance.
I came up to the school and watched them talking. The prophecy is coming true so far. The princess comforts the emotionally damage knight. I mumbled.
Stay Tuned.
