A Love Trap

Looking up, Chant noticed Ashley was unconscious in Andrew's arms. This terrified him to the core. Putting down the book in his hand, he stood up and asked worriedly, "What happened to Ashley?"

"She is fine. Nothing to worry about. It has been a long day so she passed out. Would you please take care Richard and Fabio?" Andrew resorted to lying. It had indeed been a long day and he didn't have the energy to narrate today's events.

"Well, of course," Chant said but he wasn't satisfied with Andrew's reply.

After Andrew got his assurance, he went upstairs with Ashley in his arms. He didn't want to waste any time talking.

Chant gaped at his receding figure, trying to understand what exactly happened.

But he knew Andrew would take good care of Ashley. As long as she was with him, he had nothing to worry about.

"Great Grandpa!"

"Great Grandpa!"

The moment Richard and Fabio stepped into the room, they saw Chant and greeted him.

"My boys are here!

Can you tell me what's wrong with your mother? She seems ill. What happened?" he asked, trying to extract information from the kids.

Fabio pursed his lips, indicating he was equally astonished about everything that had happened today.

But looking at Richard, Chant realized he knew something. Taking a deep breath, Richard spilled the beans. "Mommy saw my little sister today. But some other man snatched her away. Seeing this, Mommy became so sad and finally passed out." Once the words came out of him, pin-drop silence ensued.

After a few seconds, Chant broke it by asking, "Sister? What are you talking about? You don't have a sister." Chant was confused. He couldn't understand what rubbish Richard was speaking.

Even Fabio turned to look at Richard, trying to decipher his words.

Richard looked at Chant, dumbfounded. He had thought his great grandfather knew about it. But it seemed that his great grandfather was as confused as Fabio.

Richard found himself in a dilemma.

He thought to himself, 'Mommy and daddy didn't tell great grandfather about this. Now that I have revealed their secret, will they be mad at me?'

Chant continued to stare at Richard, waiting for a reply. He couldn't help but wonder what was going on in this child's mind.
