Xander looked at him in shock as everything seems to be like a drama to him.
"Sister?"
**********
Now, all of them were currently in the ward with Xander's arms crossed under his chest waiting for an answer.
"Listen Xander, we didn't intend to hide this from Harry and you." Mr Clark said.
Just then Harry walked in, all eyes landed on him but his eyes didn't leave Lilith as he walked towards them.
"Wait wait guys, don't tell me what I heard or what you called me for is the truth.. that Lilith is.." Harry said.
"It is the truth brother and I think we deserve an explanation from them." xander said coldly glaring at his parents.
"Umm, I don't think we need to be here we will get going now." Clyde said trying to leave with Ella, Elvis and Steven but Mrs Clark next words got him stopping on his track.
"It's concerns you Clyde, the most and I don't know how you will feel after hearing the bitter truth." Mrs Clark said and Clyde furrowed his brows in confusion.
"What do you mean by that." Clyde asked.
"I will explain it all." Mrs Clark and they all listened attentively.
"It all started when...."
<< FLASHBACK TO SOME YEARS AGO>>
Mrs Clark could be seen pregnant as she sat on the couch while her five years old and three years old sons respectively played with their toys.
Suddenly Mr Clark came in to the house angrily.
"Welcome honey, what's wrong." Mrs Clark asked as Mr Clark sat beside her.
"I had been in the office all day trying to think of an issue and I don't know how you will feel after I tell you about it." Mr Clark said and Mrs Clark squinted her brows.
"What's that."
Mr Clark breathe in and out before talking." I really don't think you should give birth to this baby." Mr Clark said and Mrs Clark expression changed.
"What are you saying, do you hear yourself at all. Our baby, my baby, we shouldn't give birth to her, you mean we should abort?" Mrs Clark said.
"Listen dear, there's really some capital failure at work recently as our work had not been given out, so I just think...."
Mr Clark was cut short when Mrs Clark yelled at him.
"Keep quiet young man." Mrs Clark said.
She called one of the maid and ask her to take the children away.
" So because there is short of capital, you want us to abort. Am seriously not doing that, never." Mrs Clark yelled at him which got Mr Clark furious.
"Woman, if you know you can't give in to my idea then you can shift back to your parents house with the baby in you then." Mr Clark yelled back.
Hearing that, Mrs Clark feared because going back to your parents house even though still being married it's going to be the society new hot topic and her and her family will be disgraced which she doesn't want.
"Listen honey, please just reconsider. I really can't abort this child." Mrs Clark pleaded with tears in her eyes.
"The only option I know that will be satisfied with the both of us is, after the baby is given birth to, she will be dropped at an orphanage." Mr Clark said.
Mrs Clark not having a choice agreed to that, all she knows is that her daughter will still be alive.
<< Delivery date>>
Mrs Clark put to birth and it's turns out to be a girl. After the baby was given to them, Mr Clark called someone who will help them dropped it at the orphanage and the person turns out to be Clyde's father, Mr crimson.
" Please take care of my child, don't let a scratch be on her at all." Mrs Clark pleaded.
<< END OF FLASHBACK>>
Lilith and almost everyone was in tears After they finished their explanation.
"I did it for our sake dear." Mr Clark said but instead Lilith just keep crying.
"Really mom, Dad. You decided to dump her because there was shortage of money?" Harry asked before he scoffs.
"We had no other choice." Mrs Clark said crying.
"Wow, Lilith was my sister all this while and I didn't even know. Then tell me how you guys find out she was hospitalized." xander said.
"Ever since Lilith got out of the orphanage, we have been checking each of her every move. We were relieved when we found out how Matilda saved her and took her in but least did we even know that she is Cyrus( Mr Miller) daughter.
"Wow, let's say this is the reason why Dad didn't come home since, am not surprised at all what kind of a person he is after all."Clyde said.
"We are sorry dear, please forgive us and accept us please." Mr Clark said to crying Lilith.
xander just found himself going towards Lilith, he then hugged her as she cried in his arms.
"Please forgive us." xander said.
He remembered when he had tried to bully her and he felt sad.
Pushing xander away, she looked at the Clark family , so let's get this straight, you had the money to pay for maids but not the money to raise a daughter.
Mrs Clark I am pretty sure your family is rich , so you couldn't ask for help instead you threw your daughter into an orphanage, Lilith said already in tears.
okay , and after things got well for your family it didn't occur to you to get your daughter out of the orphanage, even when I left the orphanage myself, was bullied, starving and almost assaulted it never occurred to you to get your daughter back.
And you know the worse part , is you knew all that was going on , if it wasn't for Clyde who found me and brought me back to his home , I would already be dead somewhere.
So if I wasn't hospitalized you wouldn't have thought it important to acknowledge this daughter, but let me spell it out for you I am already an orphan the day my parents decided to throw me into an orphanage, you hear me Lilith said .
Please Clyde, see these people out , I am a patient who needs rest. Lilith said
Mr and Mrs Clark, please go out, clyde asked perfunctory.
<< Next day>>
They all had to skip school as Lilith will be discharged today. Lilith chose to go to clyde's place instead.
They got to Clyde's house and Mrs crimson was happy to see Lilith as she hugged her.
Clyde had told her everything that happened recently.
"Mr Clark and Mrs Clark said they would like me to Start staying with them." Lilith said, I won't want to cause you anymore trouble
"We will all miss you dear." Mrs crimson said and she hugged her again.
"I just want to spend today with you all before I leave." Lilith said.
"Once my brother comes back from school, we will all go out okay?" clyde said and she nodded.
They talked with each other for some times before Clyde's brother arrived and they went out to have some fun.
<< Next day~ Star bright High>>
The students were told they will be writing their exam next week while the grade 12 will be writing their final exam for the year.
The XESS and the girls can be seen in the library trying to study.
"Come sit besides me Lilith." xander said and Lilith looked at him.
"Huh." Lilith asked but Liam signalled to come over. She looked at clyde who told her to go.
" Nice having you as a sister though, so I think you,me and brother could hang out later, hmm." xander said and Lilith just nodded.
"Good then." Xander said and held her hand.
" Nice seeing those two together." Steven said.
" Yeah."Clyde added.
" But may I borrow her for some times?" Steven said.
xander looked at Lilith but she was already standing up.
" Okay." xander said and they smiled before walking out of the library.
xander too excuse himself to go take something in class, Clyde ran After him also leaving the two love birds Ella and Elvis alone.
Seems they also have been trying to be left alone.
"Hey stop." Clyde shouted After xander, he stopped afterwards.
"What's wrong?" Xander asked.
"Just want to see you, seems you forgot about me." Clyde said and Xander chuckled.
" That's not it, I have really been Disturbed having heard that Lilith is my sister, so that just the case. I didn't forget about you." xander said.
" It's okay, how about the police case."
" They're working on it and it's seem he has already confessed , Xander said.
" Okay." Clyde said, xander started walking again before he stopped him.
" Wait, do you ... umm perhaps have something to say to me?" Clyde asked and Xander squinted his brows.
" I mean..." he breathe in and out.
" Are you seriously waiting for me to say it first huh, just confess already." Clyde said and Xander just kept looking at him in confusion.
