When we got to my street, I immediately thanked him and asked to alight there.
I particularly didn't want him to know my house.
"Are you okay now? " he asked still concern.
"Yes,I'm okay" I said, unless you want me to burst out and wet your shirt.
He opened the door for me and wished me a sound sleep.
I was very glad and didn't hesitate to let him know.

Getting close to my house, I saw smoke coming from our house, and noticed that people gathered around it.
I quickly knew what was going on due to the screams.
"Where are my sisters and brother?" I asked in fear on seeing the firemen and ambulance.
A short man turned and pointed towards a tree in front of our house .
I saw them crying and yelling.
I rushed to them assuring them that it was okay.
But Julian kept on pointing towards the house.
I tried calming her down when I turned, and noticed men in uniforms carrying two bodies out.

Looking confused, I asked "who are those?"

"Da...dad and Mo... Ehehehe" Edwina finally speaking out for the first time I got there, while crying.

"What!!! but they are not yet back".
That can not be right, they will be coming back tomorrow.
I quickly rushed to the the people and true to it, there laid Mom and Dad covered in their own blood.
My world became blank, I couldn't breathe. Ethan fought out of Edwina's arms rushing to me while crying.
I knew I had to be strong for him,I really had to be.

I was somehow relieved, when they were kept in the car and the medics ensured us that they were alright.
A neighbor then offered to take us to her house till all went well.
I had to sleep with Ethan before he could fall asleep.
When he finally slept, my sisters asked me, what we were to do next.
Even though, I was their youngest sister,
They always ask for my opinion before doing a thing.
We finally decided that, Edwina can take care of Ethan while Julian and I would go to the hospital and take care of our parents.
When we got there, Julian went to phone our uncle ( Dad's brother) ,to inform him of the incident .

Days broke into nights, when dad finally opened his eyes and called for me asking why I wasn't going to work.
I somehow felt happy that he could speak and see he is not worried about his health but rather my job.
I hugged him out of joy. Then called out for Julian.
But before Julian came dad told me something.
" sweetheart, listen to me and promise that no matter what you will not quit working at that place."
I promised and asked him not to worry.
"Also never should you hate anybody, no matter what you get to know. Just stay focused and work hard to shock them". He added.
Now that one got me surprised,but I nodded in response.
He then asked of Mom and we said she was OK hiding back tears.
Just then Dad started advising her.
I only heard take good care of your siblings.

It's been one whole week and I having gone to work.
Mom's sickness was getting worse day by day.
Today, I know I have to go to work or I'm officially dead.
When I got there, they were all staring at me like a ghost.
I knew I have grown very pale but there was more to the stares than my appearance.
Quickly, Theresa a girl I met earlier on the interview day, run and hugged me so tight.
All eyes were still on me,when I heard my name being called I turned and ooooh.
I saw him staring directly at me, with those blue eyes now cold.
Seeing the face, I remembered I had not submitted the jotted report.
Looking at him I can swear I see smoke coming out of his ears and mouth. Follow me I heard and could sense danger from the words.
I did like an obedient lamb.
We finally got to his office and I saw his name boldly written there
ALFRED E. WALTER.
I then waited outside till he asked me in.
I'm totally finished I know it and can sense trouble on the way.
