CHAPTER SIX

When Nanny Grace went out of Christina's room, she went inside the living room to know if everything was well taken care of before she went inside her room to sleep. 

        She was very surprised to see Steven inside the bar sitting on the floor alone , his back resting on the wall and his right hand holding alcohol.   "This not ordinary alcohol, I think it a strong alcohol to be precise cause that the only thing that can make him sit on the floor like this''Nanny Grace complain from distance she was standing with surprised , because this the first time she saw him worn out like this , Steven is also a clean freak.   She walked to where he was sitting on the floor and noticed his eyes were close ,she shook her head right and left with a pitiful expression. She understands how it takes to be left behind with the one you love.   She tapped his shoulder gently ,he shrugged before he opened his eyes. '' Aunty Grace!!!" he pronounces her name weakly " Thank God you still recognize me " Aunty Grace comments before saying anything else,"Mr Steven what really happened to Mr Peter,what caused his death" . "I don't want to talk about it now, please, " he said with a pitiful expression. " This is actually the reason I am having my daughter now" . 

   "Sir if you don't mind my question can you tell me where Christina's mother is ". " I don't know " she was surprised to hear that from his mouth " sir" she exclaimed, Steven saw her expression and he smiled because he had expected such a reaction from her . "This is the high time to tell you what happened about five to four years ago ".he announced and he watched Aunty Grace shift a stool for him to sit .

   " Thanks" he said and sat on the stool and rested back on the wall ,the alcohol he drank was not much,he was able to control himself ,he knew what he was saying and what he was doing.

   Flash back

  "Your birthday party will hold here and strictly know alcohol drinks"Steven's dad announced " But Dad I will be eighteen years by then " Steven complain bitterly " dear I can understand him ,as well  as you,but you making things difficult for him, you don't even know how he plan his birthday party" Steven's mom persuade her husband " darling, when I say No I know what am doing,if I agree with it now they will get drunk cause they will over do it and I don't want any mess up in our house " Steven's dad explain " ok ,if you say so" his wife did not drag it further and turn to where their son was sitting with an unreadable expression " son don't worry it the matter of time, try to reason with your dad " his mother said .

   Steven smile to himself ,his parents don't know that drinking alcohol on is birthday was not his first time ,he always as his way in her father's bar , whenever his not around. 

  " What happened ?  His parents asked chorusly sharing gaze with each other before they turn their stares back at him , expecting what his going to say. "Ok, No ALCOHOL PARTY" he said smiling before he stand up and walk inside his room.  The couple stare at themselves surprisingly but Steven father is feeling something awkward with the way his son was smiling but seeing his wife less concerned expression make him loose interest on it.
