Chapter 5: Pained memories

Grey narrowed his eyes on him and wondered if he knew the strange man but his face was not at all familiar to him.

His eyes went wide when Alfred went to his knees. “Greetings, Hercules. It’s my pleasure to see you and even talk to you,” he smiled and finally stood up.

Grey was still skeptical, unable to believe a thing. It was a wonder that Alfred was referring to him as a master but he found it difficult to believe someone as rich as Alfred knew someone like him.

Then, that brought him to the fact that something was really amiss somewhere. There was something about his past that seemed to be connected to something very much important. No one could explain to him how his life was before he was found by the sisters at the orphanage. And he didn’t remember anything as well. It still felt like there was a fog in his memory.

“Where have you been?” Alfred was all smiles as he asked.

“For ten years, we’ve been searching, finally I found the successor of Hercules! Who would have thought I would find you, son?” He laughed. “You must be Hercules’s son, did your father tell you about us before he died?”

Grey blinked once,” I have a father? And he’s dead?” Just as he was done talking, he saw a flash of an image. He saw an older man walking side by side with a boy whose features looks similar to Grey.

“Tell them, it’s Hercules,” the man’s thick voice frightened everyone in the room except the young boy. Then he turned to look at him. “We are going to the party together, Grey.”

Then, he jerked out again and the image was gone and Grey was looking back at Alfred. It seemed like he was finally getting something out of his memory. Though, he wondered why it took so long.

“What are you talking about?” Grey still had a skeptical look on his face and he wasn’t really understanding it all. All he could remember were images and not entirely the whole lost page of his life.
