Dance With Me (Silent Whisper’s)

‘Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we’re here we should dance. Everything in the universe has rhythm. Everything dances, to watch us dance is to hear our hearts speak.’

“I don’t understand, how can you not see his pictures?” Nora asked confusingly.

“I don’t know. I went where I kept all his pictures but couldn’t find any.” Craig explained. He was beyond shock when he couldn’t find his son pictures. When Philip had died, he pack all his pictures both the once he took with him and kept it in a box. Seeing the pictures reminds him of his late son which was why he had packed it safely in one place and now it is gone.

“Are you sure you checked well Craig, you know it has been long or probably you burnt it and forget about it.” Kate chip in.

“No I didn’t burn it, I couldn’t find any of his pictures where I had kept it. It was as if it has been stolen.” Craig said, he was sure he didn’t burn Philip pictures.

“Who would have steal it then?” Kate asked no one in particular, she picked up her phone and dial a number in her phone.

“Yes, morning. I want you and the rest servants to come to the main building quickly, it’s urgent.” Kate told the receiver and hung up the call.

Soon five servants, 3 males who took care of the house and 2 females who are the cooks all came into the sitting room.

After Kate had made Craig to live with her in the main house, she employed these five people who took care of the house. She gave them the boys quarters which Craig and his late son had reside when she had employed them newly.

They greeted Kate, Craig and Nora.

“Let me hit the nail on the wall, who amongst you took a picture from Craig’s room?” Kate asked immediately.

The five servants looked confused at the question. “Ma’am, none of us had seen any pictures.” One out of the three men spoke.

“I believe the question I asked wasn’t for you to answer alone, speak for yourself and count others out.” Kate told the man who spoke.

“Sorry ma’am, I did not see any pictures.” Diego said.

The remaining four of them said the same thing.

Nora was confused so was Craig. “So does it mean I don’t know what I am saying or I don’t know where I kept my son pictures again?” Craig said.

“You can all go.” Kate told them and they left one after the other.

“If you are sure you didn’t lost or burn the pictures of my dear Philip, who then will took it. What do they even need it for?” Nora asked.

“I wish I have an answer to that Nora but I don’t.” Craig responded.

“Nora we will come back to Philip later, for now please tell us how you came to see and talk.” Kate said in smiles.

Nora smiled at that and told them everything. From when she walked into the fairy kingdom to where daisy taught her how to dance. She told them everything and didn’t hide a pin from them.

“Hold on, you mean you have a fairy with you which we can’t see but you can?” Craig asked for the umpteen time.

“Yes.” Nora replied.

“There is something I still not get yet Nora.” Kate said drawing Nora’s attention back to her. Nora noticed how young her grandmother still look despite her old age. “You said daisy has to wait for it to happen a second time before she could cure you, right?” Kate asked which Nora nodded affirmative. “So who was the person that pushed you? Twice?”

“Grandma, please let this be a secret between us.” Nora pleaded.

“Okay, Craig and I will keep anything you tell us a secret, so who pushed you twice?”

“Lora pushed me twice, first was when we were ten years and the second time was few days ago.” Nora finally let out the truth.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Kate couldn’t believe it neither Craig.

“I knew it, I knew something was wrong with the way Lora just suddenly claimed you committed suicide. Why will she pushed you? Her own twin? Not once but twice. You have to be very careful of her. I wonder what she did to my son and his wife, your parents, that all these years that went by, they didn’t even put a call across to ask of you.” Kate said.

“They’re the least of my worries now, whatever spells Lora might have cast on them will some day fade.” Nora said and turn her gaze to Craig. “By the way, what happened to David when you saw him coming out of the ‘I don’t know area’ without me.”

“I am confused Nora, because the David who took us there wasn’t the real one. In fact he gave me a binocular which only showed the both of you eating and laughing out your sorrows. It was when the real David came we discovered what I was seeing with the binocular was actually an illusion. We searched for you every where but couldn’t find. Thank goodness, Paul saved you.” Craig explained.

Nora then remembered daisy word. “… But I can tell you this, who so ever Lora uses to put you in darkness is definitely worse than a Sluagh fairy.”

She only hope daisy has enough powers to fight off the evil fairy the day they will come face to face.

Valtan City:

Paul arrived at home and greeted his father when he went inside the mansion.

“You were in town throughout yesterday and you didn’t even let your old man know?” Robert Mirror asked as a servant came down the stairs with another pair of shirt.

“Sorry about that dad, I just wanted to clear my head first before heading home, sorry I didn’t inform you.” Paul lied. He removed his shirt he wore and took the one from the servant, he hate the burn scars he got from his car accident some years back, and that was why he normally wear a long sleeves clothes which hid all his ugly scars.

“Okay no problem, but next time you tell your old man here.”

“Will do.” Paul replied with a smile.

“The Vipers couldn’t pay me my remaining money for the goods I delivered to them. Go and kill all of them and bring back my goods.”

“Yes father.”

“They should die a horrible death.”

It was night time.

Diego was with a man. He had sneaked out of the house without anyone’s knowledge and had gone to meet the man in a hotel room.

The strange man who was smoking smiled at Diego, he was wearing a hood which concealed his whole face.

“You did well by bringing me those pictures.” The stranger said holding the pictures in his hand.

“Thank you sir, but sir why do you need the pictures when you’re him? You can just go and meet them and they won’t even question you.”

“I need to study the background of the family before I resurface. I mean it’s not everyday you realize you have a lookalike who is in love with that pretty damsel.” The stranger said and laughed out. “That’s a lie, I have known him way back then but he doesn’t know me, and that was why I had to pretend I was one of the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers and I made the plane caught fire before it landed in Basla killing everyone in it.” The stranger said and push down his hood which revealed his face that matches with the boy in the pictures he was holding. He removed his shirt which revealed burnt scars.

“Is that not…”

“Yes, and these is the only evidence that shows that I am truly Philip who survived the air crash. Your job here is done, you can go.”

Diego left the hotel and sneaked back into the house.

The stranger dialed a number which rang once and it was picked. “Diego is now in the house, he knows too much, sneak in and kill him silently.”
