Chapter 219: Dads at War

"But... But u heard him, you heard what he said, he was saying things like you are his family, while you are mine, both you and Ikem."

Fake dad said.

"This is what I am talking about, I wonder how you even became this successful in the business world, you are just thinking, you just believe everything without questioning anything, you trust too easily, I believed that that was what even led to you marrying that lady who ruined us. Now turn around and look at your heavily armed security men, look and them lying there like piles of flesh, they could not do anything to him, you saw how he managed to walk so freely without being disturbed by anyone, yet you feel that you can fight him."

Mom said hinting at the CCTV footage which still played life depicting even the Lieutenant on the ground.

" and as for us being his or yours, we do not belong to a tone, and it is mainly your irrational way of life that could make you believe that Damian is your son, common look at him, look at his hair color, look at his eyes, see his skin tone, can you not read the handwriting? He is not Ikemefuna, He is Demian and I conceived him not by you, but by this demon standing here."

Mom said again, but this time she said it with a flood of tears.

"What are you saying woman? Keep quiet, Ikem is my son, I know he is, I can feel it, if he is not I will know."

Fake dad said. All the while, dad just stood at the door starting at me like one free which he really is, his looks kind of gave me a creep, I had always wanted to see him in a real scene, but now, here he is right before me, and I couldn't even look at him in the eyes, I don't know he had this aura that ten to make me feel submissive to him, like an Omega to an Alpha, and I just do not like that feeling, I was just about gaining my confidence back I won't want to trade it again for a dad. 

"Matt honey"

Mom called on fake dad with her hand on his face, she looked at him deep in the eyes, eyes which had now gone red due to pain and uncertainty.

"I love you so much Matthew, I had always done, but you hurt me matt, yes Matthew, you really hurt me, it was that day when I saw your invitation card publicly displayed on Facebook that all this happens, that day you killed me, the heartbreak and pain sent me to the beach crying and that was where and when I conceived Demian, that very night, yes that night Matthew Ohakwe, that was the night that I met this evil creature, and since then I have lived a life of a fugitive, I would have achieved a lot of things in this life, God had blessed me with luck, but I kept on running ups and down from him. It is all your fault Matt, it is all your Fault. And yes, he is a Merman an Aquaman from the Elegushi beach. He is a marine spirit as you will understand. So forget it you can't fight him and this Damian you call your son is half-human, he is not even a full human, he would have been yours, but you fucked up. You ruined us, you killed me."

Mom cried, she cried as she said all that which she said to Mr. Matt. Hearing this, fake dad quickly drew back, looking at all of us like he just saw ghosts, he took off mom's hand from his face which was also raining a have a downpour of tears.

"No, no nooo..."

He cried as he fell at the process of his going back.

"Now you... Where were you? Where were you when your son was almost killed? Where were you when we were all suffering all the stigma, you can down there in your Aqua throne of fishes enjoying the view, now someone, a nice man who actually and sincerely cared came along to help, this is when you know you will have to show your unconfirmed face?

How did you even manage to walk to this place? Can you not see that you do not look like a tone here? What happens to look like the man I met at the beach, why must your hair sweep the floor? And what are you even wearing?"

Mom asked dad aggressively. For a fact, I almost asked mom if that was the way she saw dad on the first day and she could not recognize that he was not from this planet.

"Juliet... Ignore the fact that has not been here all these while and acknowledge the fact that I am here now, and I have settled all the problems you and The Aqua Prince had with my sister, Bermuda Mariners will never disturb you again, at least not for a while. You may now go back home, your home had been fixed."

Dad said in that voice of his which could actually make anyone fall to sleep.
