"It's a gift I am willing to offer. I'm very sorry if it is too little. But if you are still willing to give me something..." Travis kowtowed and raised his voice. "Please accept me to be a houseboy in your house."

Rocco Morrison quickly distracted her by bringing a wrapped canvas and quickly unwrapped it. It was a big glinting imagine of the late Mr. Morrison

Rocco was a grandson of the old Mrs. Morrison. He had received many awards from her because of his beautiful drawings.

When Rocco learned that Mrs. Morrison had invited many special guests, he had spent several nights painting the pictures in other to impress the guests which could make him more famous.

It was a big no for him to accept a poor young man from taking this rare position.

"Granny, this canvas is worth millions of dollars because the art tools I used are worth fifty million dollars. It would be good to consider my painting before giving this cheap drawing the picture of the day." Rocco pointed to the Travis's paper o

    Once Travis and Donna got to the corridor, Melissa, his mother, hugged him and shed tears. Travis held the urge to burst into loud tears and dropped them one by one. “It’s okay, Mom.”He hugged his dad, too, and followed them home after they discharged him after the doctor’s test.Donna brought him a coffee and held another one in her left hand. “Thank you,” Travis said.“You don’t need to thank me. Anyway, this is the last drink I would share with you.”“No. We would meet again. Trust me.”Donna smiled and gave Travis a high five. “I trust you.”The old Mr. Hernandez brought a photographer to give them many shots before Charles traveled with Melissa and Donna.Travis agreed to snap pictures with his parents and Donna, but he didn’t agree to snap a picture with Granny.The old Mr. Hernandez let out a heavy sigh and said, “It is fine. Since you were all happy. I would be happy.”Donna snapped many pictures with Travis and forced him to carry her before they snapped another one.“If y

    Can ghosts laugh, too? Travis stared at them and could read disappointment on Donna’s face.Donna faced Charles and Melissa. “Why is he running away from us?”“Can you please excuse me for some time? I want to explain everything to Travis alone,” the old Mr. Hernandez said. He then gave Charles a I-don’t-want this-little-girl-know-about-this sort of look.Melissa grabbed Donna’s hand. “Let’s go.”“Again?” Donna asked. “Are we leaving Travis alone again? I’m not going anywhere.”“Travis would join you soon. Trust me,” the old Mr. Hernandez said. He then winked at Donna.“I don’t trust you, but I will stay at the door.” She pointed to her eyes with two fingers and then to Granny’s. “My eyes are watching you.”Charles and Melissa held themselves from laughing in that serious moment and followed Donna out.Once the door was closed, the old Mr. Hernandez looked at Travis and didn’t know where to start. Confusion was lingering on Travis’s face. “Please sit down,” he said.“With a ghost?” T

    Travis quickly struggled into the kitchen to eat rice and struggled to open the fridge. Looking for something for strength. His arms and legs shook, and so did his lips. He quickly held fridge as the room bent in his eyes. With force, he went back to the sitting room and picked up his phone. He clicked it, but the phone was faulty and didn't work, no matter how hard he tried. Is he going to die for real? He could only think, but he couldn’t talk. This moment demands he use remaining vigor, open exit so guards provide saving. He made it to the gate, but opening it became another problem. And the worst was that he couldn’t shout.If the Grand System were a person, and if Travis could survive this suffering, he would forever retaliate. “Travis, can you hear me? It is Donna, your lovely sister. Travis!!!”Travis didn’t know where the loud voice was coming from, but he was sure it was coming from heaven since he knew his sister had died with his parents.“Travis!! I miss you. Please,

    Travis showered and wore his old clothes before moving out. As he opened the gate, he saw many bodyguards standing at his gate. “Young master,” one said. And everyone bowed down to him.Travis looked around. CEO Douglass and Uncle Warren weren’t there. Then why are they here? It baffled him because he doesn’t hire a security guard. So he asked them, “Why are you here?”“It is a command from the old Mr. Hernandez, sir. He wants you to be under excellent protection,” one said.“I want you all to leave here. I don’t need any protection.”The bodyguard knelt, and the rest did the same. “It is a command we cannot disobey. Please, we need to follow you anywhere you are going, too.”Travis became worried. What sort of nonsense is this? If they followed him, Stella would know who he was. He stepped back in and closed the gate, heading towards the room. He sat in the sitting room, praying that the old Mr. Morrison to catch Stella before she sneaked out. After thirty minutes, he received a c

    Travis laid down that night and couldn't sleep. He was worried. Worried if Stella was feeling better.He didn't want to worry, but if only he knew how. He forgot he was on a soft blanket and that the room was cool enough. He had forgotten there was coffee on the table and that he was becoming handsome day by day.Suddenly, he remembered Stella had a phone. He swiftly switched on his phone and couldn't wait for it to load. He tapped his head. How could he forget Stella had a phone?He scrolled through his contacts several times but couldn't see Stella's number. Then he remembered he had forgotten to save her phone number.He tapped his head several times, feeling pain tingling in his belly. How dumped he was. He has Chloe's but not Stella's number.[What is going wrong? I couldn't read your thoughts to know since you had already hindered me. I would like to help if you wish anyway.]Grand System makes a smiling symbol in the air before Travis."Can you help me search for Stella's phone

    Travis locked the door and walked to the kitchen to eat something. Something sweet to distract himself from what Uncle Warren told him.When he returned to the sitting room, he saw ten missed calls from CEO Douglass, and another call came from him, but Travis ignored it like a wrong number and then switched off his phone.The thought that his parents and his sister had died because of his grandfather kept repeating itself in his head. He focused on the news showing on his TV to distract himself from those thoughts finally so that he wouldn’t shed tears again. At the Hernandez family mansion, Uncle Warren stood reporting what Travis said to the old Mr. Hernandez. “I made a mistake. If I had known this is how it’s going to be, I wouldn’t have made you guys go through the hardship. But anyway, it is for the best. Travis didn’t know that many of my bodyguards were always monitoring him to keep him safe from all our enemies. This is the time to let him know the news about his parents an
