Chapter 14 - One side of my family story

A month have passed since Rio became friends with students and he became popular as most girls even proposed to be his girlfriend but he decline the offer. Even Richel have become close to him as she searches her problems with him and Rio excitedly help without second thought, which Risa on the other side seems to have improve greatly in just a short time and even does the home chores.

Grandpa Jac who was on a close door with death had been up to some stuffs with Miss Sia who seems to provide the document and he had suddenly start to grow pale. The Persia family also have been in a late crisis as they seem to investigate Rio's background but have not found anything or the reason of his wealth.

"And Rio, you would be task to teach Richel as her performance have been poor in studies and I hope you two get along" Miss Atina said as she left the class and everyone started to head out as Rio followed Richel who head to the athletic training ground.

Soon at the arrival and behind, Rio saw her run to Roma as they hug and he just ignored as his friends seems to be there. They started to train as Rio just keep up his speed to motivate his three friends catch up quickly and after a three-round run, they gave it a close of the day and Rio head to his Basketball club where he watches his team play decently.

Walking out of the campus, Richel stopped him and told him she would like to on only three days in a week with him as also in the class after the break. He agreed and left jogging as she watch him disappear, which Roma appeared asking who she was look at but she said "Just a classmate of mine".

Back home, Rio greeted Risa who was at the door step and she took his bag and telling him to go bath.

Rio without wasting time did as he was told and dressed up before entering the living room where Risa sat watching movie. "I'm done taking my bath and where is my food, please" Rio texted her as she turns around and said "Not even a kiss for leaving in the house every day?", he turns away texting "Stop playing and come let eat as we have to head to the hospital" and went to take his seat.

Seeing that he was not going to continue his words, Risa sigh saying "You really don't love me and I know you have a girlfriend which is why you deny kiss me" as she took her seat and took their meal.

After they were done and heading out, Risa said "Sorry that I won't be able to follow you as I have something to do and tell grandpa I will come tomorrow" as Rio turn with a shock expression and texted "Why are you not coming today?" as it was the first time, she decides not to pay Grandpa a visit.

Risa replied "Because you only care about him and if you really care you would have at least stop sleeping on the floor, which you even give me a hug or kiss after class but you don't even show a slit of care about me" as she looks at him directly and Rio didn't text but rather left waving at Risa.

This saddens her as she watches him leave and she close the door as she went to seat down watching the movie, which started to cry and wipe her face as she continued to watch the movie.

On the other side, Rio was with Grandpa as he asked "Where is Risa, Rio?" and Rio replied "See was tired and couldn't come today. But she would surely come tomorrow". Rio who was worried about his condition ask if he was fine and Grandpa said "I'm good and I have something for you to sign since Risa is not here today" which he told Rio to take those documents on the table.

Rio who carefully read the document realized he was signing a marriage contract and seeing that he wanted to keep a good relation with Grandpa, he signed it with the rest as he didn't read through rest before doing so and Grandpa noticed it.

"He really trusts me than I expected" Grandpa thought as Rio asked if he wanted anything else as Grandpa smiled and said "Can you talk with only me without writing?", Rio sigh in as he opened his mouth saying "Grandpa, you sure know that I could talk, right" and the grandpa nodded.

Rio continued "You my past and background altogether, which you still try to hide it from me and I would love to know" as Grandpa replied "I can only tell you short about your background and you would find the rest soon" and sat up right.

Looking at Rio nod and taken a sigh, Grandpa started "Your grandpa was my best friend as he was Mr. Asura Eno and he died when you were just two years, which Risa was just a year old and it was a tragic death. Mr. Leo and Mrs. Elina were your parent who once owned the company Miss Sia owned now as she is your bachelor, but after you disappeared at seven years in the building accident that happened, Miss Sia kept searching for you since she sure you survived and gave up five years ago" as Rio listened with his thoughts rampaging with certain memories.

Grandpa stopped saying that was all he could know now and Rio said "Thank you for telling me this but how did you and Risa ended up in the street".

Rio was now confused to why they end up in the street and Grandpa laugh saying "You sure know what to ask for a 17 years young man like you".

"Don't worry I will tell you all about what happened to me and Risa" Grandpa said as he started.

"I was also a business man like your grandpa and we were both the CEO as we kept everything under balance many years ago. But unlike your grandpa, I was a Military Commander compered to Eno who was just a business man and since I retired early due to been shot in the left shoulder, I join him and we made a great company after he paid for my treatment.

After we made a good progress, we decide to divide it to prevent future conflict between our descendants and that was were; Le trade company and Ja trade company was made.

When he passed on and your parent also did, I train Miss Sia to take of the Le Trade Company and left my son in charge of the Ja Trade Company. Mr. Mick who was my son rented the company for 10years to the Persia with his wife Mrs. Irine behind and sold my mansion, which they run away leaving Risa with me." Narrated Grandpa Jac as he sighs heavily.

Rio who seems to analysis everything apologized for asking but Grandpa dismissed his apology and told him to take good care of Risa even though she also knows about what her parent did, which Grandpa also informed Rio to asked Miss Sia about more property left by his parent as she would show him.

After the conversation, Rio bid Grandpa Jac good night and left back to his apartment where he found Risa to be fast asleep in the sofa chair. Rio who decides to only chat with Grandpa in a voice-to-voice conversation private looked at Risa and felt sorry for her to have gone through all the hardship just like him.

Carrying the heavy Risa in his arms and sending her to bed after changing her clothes, Rio turn to leave to his floor bed but couldn't get out of her hands that lock his body and leaving them to fall asleep together for the first time.

The next morning, she opened her eyes to find Rio on her bed and saw how she had locked him making her to let go of him as he texted her "Good morning and rest more as I would be washing up for class".

Risa was confused about how it happened and just when she realized her clothes were change, she screamed "Noo! You did it!" and the already done bathing Rio texted "No I didn't. I just help change the outfit not the mountain holder nor pant and you should check for yourself". As he dressed up and watch the shocked Risa who checked as she felt sad, which show she was sad that it didn't happen and watch Rio who left the apartment without eating.
