"Hold on sir". Alvin voice echoed, as he veers back his attention. "Yes, how may I be of help to you?". Devon smiles warmly, idling to hear him speak. I walked out and met them both faced frozen at each other, "Alvin, what are you doing?" I said and fell Devon attention on me. "I don't understand, what's going on either and if mr Alvin, will kindly explain, I can be able to know". (He says and rephrase his eyes back). Alvin takes a step further and said, "are we seriously doing this, brother?". A weak smile smudged on, Devon replied, " did you just call me, your brother? Do I look like your brother, Mr Alvin". His arrogant behavior, made me think otherwise, but Alvin had to go further with his, by pulling Devon by his shirt. "Don't you dare lie to me, i know it's you David, do I look stupid?". ( He yells out his word and kept on acting like a lunatic) "David, stop it?". I walked and forcefully dragged him off him ( Devon) Mr Fabian vents out his anger by raising his hand on his son, which plastered a shocked look on my face. "Oh my goodness, did Alvin just get slapped by his father?". ( That's my head talking). I turned and noticed Devon was a little pleased by what happened, maybe Alvin is right, Devon might be David, but I'll have to find out the truth, one way or the other. Alvin loomed around and falls down on a bench outside, Mr Ajay adds up his words, by clearing the air, he says, " Mr Devon, I am sorry about my son's behavior!!! Indeed you look like his brother, but I am sure you're not, sorry for the confusion". Devon says, "do I really look like his brother?". And turns to Alvin who kept on contemplating to himself. "Alvin". He lifts his head up, "yes" and waits for a response from Devon. (Continues talking). "I am sorry for the confusion, we will be leaving now". ( He gets up from the bench and take a step forward). "Hold on Mr Alvin". Devon's voice halts him to a stop, he turns back, and watched Devon recedes further with his words. "How about we play a game?". He adds up. "What game?". Alvin asked donning a confused look on his face. So he says, " it's a game called, the truth". ( Continues talking after noting we couldn't phantom what he meant). "Now I believe you're still in doubts to see if truly I am your brother or not, so now, I suggest that we play a game called the truth, and it is going to last for one month, and during that month, you will get the clarity, if truly, I am your brother or not". ( Waits for Alvin to speak) "What's in it for you?". Alvin words to him. "Nothing actually, I only want to make it clear that I am not your brother, even though your mind, thinks otherwise". (Devon walks out and left us talking among ourselves) "Son, are you sure about this?". Mr Fabian was in no way happy about the arrangements make by them, he was displeased by his son's behavior, rather Alvin shoots an odd smile and warned, "father, I don't need you to support me and as for Devon, I am going to prove that, his David and only putting on an act, lastly!! Don't you dare raise your hand on me". ( Unfroze and left the same path Devon left in) Question of the day?. 1) everything seemed to take a drastic turn, when an invitation led to a shocking truth, is Devon really David? Can Alvin find out the truth or will Tori be able to best him to it and fish out the hidden truth behind the curtains. Read to find out". (The following morning) Based on the bet made Yesterday, at Devon's Mansion, we returned back there the next morning with our bags in our hands. The hand keepers, individually took hold of our bags and moved further in, and ran into Devon ambling downstairs to meet us. "Welcome home, everyone?" He smiles and gave out instructions as to where our bags were supposed to keep. "Thank you for the invite Devon?" Alvin budding attitude got me thinking, is he really gonna try to play the am such a saint card on him, if only they knew what demon hides behind the innocent look on his face. Devon turns and walked away without sorting things out with us, he gets into a dark colored car and it immediately drove out. (Three hours later) "Miss Tori". A masculine voice gets my attention and I fell back to infern Devon standing behind me, "good day sir, do you perhaps need anything?". I inquired and met him smile back his answers, "no please, I only wanted to check up on you and hope everything at the room is to your taste". I giggled and said, " yes sir, thank you". And watched him amble away arms linked together. The same day, a stroll we do me good, I said to myself and walked out to get some fresh air. I had no idea where Alvin and Mr Fabian was but met someone else instead, "Mr Devon, what are you doing outside?". He turns holding unto a cup of tea and answered, "no reason in particular miss Tori and yes, I also love taking a stroll whenever I can't get myself to sleep. "Ohh'. I exclaimed and moved further to him, "what?" He says, noting the curious look on my face. "Nothing" smiled back and saw Alvin and his father ambling in holding a package. ( Fills up the distance between us) "Good evening Devon, why are you still awake!!! Did you perhaps couldn't sleep?". ( Alvin insured with a sky smile and got a deep response from Devon, he says and i quote, " what's your business?". ( His eyesight falls on the package) " what is that?". He ( Alvin drops his gaze down and reseeds further with his words) "oh, it's a lovely snow globe, I saw it in my way from the office and I thought buying it for you". I felt there was more to the snow globe the meets the eyes, thus I wouldn't be surprised if, it ends up having a hidden camera on it, so has to get the truth out even before the one month elapses, indeed Alvin's one sly Snake. "And why would you think that I would want to have a snow globe?". Devon airs out, idling to hear Alvin's comeback, rather someone else swops in before he could, Mr Fabian says, " what are you saying sir!! Everyone loves a snow globe and trust me, it will make your room beautiful, trust us". (Smiles profoundly) "Fine, I'll take it". Devon backs in with the gift, brought in by Alvin, and while he ambled further, Mr Fabian shoots a smile to his son, who donned the same look, indeed that snow globe isn't just an ordinary snow globe, but a medium to getting the truth. (10:00pm) Peace was the theme for the evening, we all locked up our rooms tucked ourselves in bed, but as usual, someone had to wake us up. "Ghost!!!".. Alvin's terrified voice gains our attention, and we all ran out of rooms outside to meet him. "What's going on?" Devon inquired, displeased by it. Alvin falls on the ground and soared his eyes like he only could see the ghost. "G...h...o..s...t"
