The Return of a Kinsman 5
He left for the bathroom and returned after a few minutes. Then he sat down on the bed and waited before Olivia spoke. “Little cousin.” “Yes, big cousin,” he responded in trepidation, and it was obvious. He was prepared for anything, but not for returning to Bricks Mont. To his consternation, what he was about to hear had never crossed his mind. “Do you believe in destiny?” “Yes. I believe in destiny. Why do you ask?” “Good. I want you to prepare yourself for what your cousin is about to tell you.” 'Cousin in-law?' He thought. Then Mr. Bailey took the floor, “Tim.” “Yes, Uncle.” “Have you ever bothered to ask why we like each other at first sight?” Tim looked down and replied, “No.” “I know. Initially, I did not know, but when I saw you agitated in the court during your mother's wedding, I got a great revelation.” Now, the smile on Tim's face had varnished and replaced with curiosity. While many questions were going on in his mind, Denise continued, “The man you chased out of the court is my uncle.” He paused and observed the surprised look on his face. Olivia observed that too, and Denise continued, “You must have noticed how mom and father welcomed you yesterday. They were happy that a kinsman, had returned home.” Now, the astounded Tim asked, “How can a nice man like you be related to that bad man?” Denise smiled at his question and looked on. Meanwhile, Tim had begun to tear up with tears of jubilation. He looked up and saw his cousins looking merrily at him. Then, he smiled and asked, “So, I have a home, after all?” “Yes, like I told you, no child is illegitimate. Every child has a father, even the test tube babies are a product of a father.” “Yes, uncle, you also said that I am born to win.” “Good, I am glad that you remembered that. Cheer up. This is your country and nobody will molest you about your birth status. Did you get me?” “I got you.” “I like that. We will visit our Patriarch today. He would be happy to see you.” “All right, uncle. Thank you for your concern towards me.” “You are welcome. Wifey, let's go.” Now, Denise stood up, and his wife did the same. Tim stood up and initiated a hug. Afterward, they left for their walk out, while Tim stayed back and gave thought to all that took place in his life within the past few days. He shook his head in excitement and mumbled, “What a life.” At the Barracks After Arthur got off the call with the Patriarch on Saturday and agreed on the time to pay him a visit, he informed his son. At noon, Denise took his wife along with Tim to the Bailey Native Home. Now, Tim had known his position in the family and was cordial with everyone. “Welcome home, little cousin. I am your biggest cousin, Freya,” Freya, who came around to welcome Tim, greeted. Then, Tim responded with a warm smile on his face. “Thank you, biggest cousin. I am delighted to see you.” “I am pleased to see you too. Come to me for a hug.” In all the events, Arthur was the most delighted. He was proud to be the Family Head of the kinsman who discovered a forgotten kinsman, who would have been lost. After the greetings, Olivia stayed behind at the Native Home with Freya and her family and waited. Denise took his parents and Tim to the Barracks. Now, Arthur and his wife were in the back seat while Denise was behind the wheels and Tim, the beloved returnee kinsman, was in the passenger's seat. Something very spectacular in his life. He had never been driven by a man except his mother. They drove joyously to their Patriarch's house to pay him a visit as he promised him last Sunday and introduce the returnee kinsman to him. Unknown to him, the Patriarch had summoned the Family Heads to an urgent meeting to welcome Tim. “What is the meaning of this?” Arthur murmured when he saw the fleet of cars of the Family Heads. Denise and Nichole had the same feeling, but they kept it to themselves. “Denise.” “Yes, father.” “Wait in the car, with Tim. Let us see the Patriarch.” “All right, father.” “Tim.” Arthur, who was out of the car with his wife, called out, and Tim, who was influenced by Denise already responded in the same manner he did, “Yes, father.” “We will be back.” “All right, father.” Arthur and his wife walked towards the Patriarch's apartment, while Denise moved away from the front of the Patriarch's apartment and parked in the car park. To keep themselves busy, they began to repost and retweet on Daniel De Pianist Page. Now, Arthur walked into the Patriarch's house with his wife, and he was pleased to see them. “I am honored with your presence, Arthur and Nichole. Please have your seat.” “Good to see you, our father.” Nichole greeted politely and took her seat while her husband mumbled his response. Now, their host spoke, pretending as though he was not anxious to see the kinsman. He was aware of what Arthur and his family were capable of doing – They may decide not to bring the kinsman. So he was cautious. “Congratulations once again. I am happy for you.” “Thank you, our father.” “Arthur, when you informed me of our kinsman, I was euphoric because I knew you could not be joking. So, I have invited our kinsmen to share in our joy and give the young man a befitting welcome.” The Patriarch excitedly explained, putting Arthur in a tight corner. If he had decided against bringing the chap, he would have ruined his reputation. “You are right. You did the right thing,” Arthur admitted with forced happiness when he understood the Patriarch's tactics. “Good, we will join them in the hall in a few minutes.” “It is all right, our father.” While they were waiting for the time stipulated for the meeting, Mr. Brown, Stephen's Family Head, walked in ecstatically and greeted, “Greetings our father, greetings Nichole.” He greeted. Before walking to Arthur and gave him a warm handshake. “Arthur, you have made our ancestors proud. I was elated that a member of my family, who would have been lost, is back.” “Thank you, Brown. I am glad, too.”
