Chapter 7 - Introduction

David just summoned up the courage and walked over to the door of the main entrance, he thought for a while before knocking on the door

knock knock

You can just go in a kid said to him, no one will answer you from there. David pushed the door open and walked inside. it looked like a walkway with doors on both sides.

He continued walking before jumping into a chubby man that looked similar to his father, but younger. Good morning sir, he greeted. Morning, how can I help you he replied.

I am here to see the head of the Wilson family David answered, because he thought in his mind it was better to start explain from above, than to start explaining to each and everyone of the family member.

Just head straight to the last door in your front, that was all the chubby man said and he left. David continued walking down the walkway until he eventually reached the described door.

He knocked thrice on the door and waited for a reply, after some seconds he decided to knock on the door again, after knocking he heard a disgruntled voice from inside.

Who is there, the voice resounded becoming louder, before the door creaked open, it was an old woman, she didn't look familiar but from her facial features he could guess her identity.

He could not even understand how he hugged her, it was like he wasn't in control of his body anymore. after some seconds he pulled himself together before speaking to her.

I am your grandson was the first word that escaped his mouth I came in search of my roots, my father directed me here, he said he was chased out of the family.

For some reason reason unknown they stood there for a long time without even batting an eye, David was not sure if they would accept him after he revealed his identity since his father was chased out by the family so he was standing still unable to move.

While his grandma was at a lost for how to rejoice so she also just stood there flabbergasted at the sudden news, but afterwards she immediately pulled herself together and hugged him.

After calming down, she immediately took him in, look what we've got here she said excitedly. what's it? you sound like you've got a gem, a voice answered.

Nope it's something more than that David's Grandma replied. then I think it's worth taking a look the voice retorted before a man in his seventies walked out.

Actually though in their early seventies and late sixties respectively, the Wilson's family still looked as s if they were in their late forties.

Which was the result of them building good and strong bodies while they were farmers and having good rest and enough care in their old ages.

Who is this young man? asked the Grandpa, you should guess the Grandma replied teasingly, You know am no good at guessing things, why don't you just do me the favor of telling me directly. that was the old man's reply

He is David your grandson the Grandma said, elated. Now it was David's turn to be speechless, because he couldn't remember telling his grandma his name.

How did she know his name out of the blues and the way she said it sounded like even the Grandpa was aware of his existence but have never seen him. it sounded like they were just waiting for his return.
