I got there to find no sign of Sylvia" where is she?" I ask no one in particular.

"Shiloh" a familiar voice calls behind me and I am so sure this voice doesn't belong to Sylvia.

I stand stiffly afraid to look back to meet the person I wasn't expecting to see anytime from now.

"Shiloh" The familiar voice calls again bringing me back to the present.

I take in a deep relaxing breath before turning around slowly to be welcomed by no other person than" Dad. I mean Mr.Dante" I say correcting myself immediately.

I meet his eyes with mine feeling anxious before looking around for Sylvia since Emma said she will be here" Sylvia is not coming" he says snapping me out of my trial of thought.

"Sylvia made that call to Emma to bring you here so we could meet," he says seeing the confusion on my face.

"What going on?" I ask feeling nervous once again, I feel something is not right and the fact that he is dressed in just a t-shirt and jeans which is different from his usual suit and pant shows something is going on.

"Shiloh, please seat," he says moving to take a seat on a bench.

I watch him with curiosity as he takes a seat waiting for me to do the same but I refuse to follow his orders blindly after he got me here using Sylvia's name" No. No, I am not taking a seat if you have anything to tell me while standing because I don't have to time for this" I know my words are rude and also I sound like a brat but I just can't help feeling tired of him always trying to control everything I do without considering how I feel about it.

I watch warily as he walks towards me before standing in front of me with his intense eyes focused on my face, I watch as emotions like guilt, regret and pain flash in his eyes making me more anxious with every second will stand in silence.

"Shiloh they are still so many things you need to know," he says softly with eyes still locked with mine" I tried in so many ways to keep you in the dark but I guess it's time you know the truth"

I stare at him bewildered not knowing what to say or how to react.

He takes in a deep breath before speaking"I was once a business partner to Mr.Colt(Chance's father) our family was very close as a result of the business deal we had" he explains looking deep in thought" Sylvia was just a little girl then and your mum was pregnant, I was happy because everything was moving smoothly until a well-respected worker of Colt called Benedict. Blake's father betrayed us by selling important project plans to our rival to gain money and power from them"

"Colt later found out about this so he paid Benedict off and put him off his job with not only his company both with other companies but while all this was going on Colt never told me of Benedict betrayal" I listen silently as he explains with dread in me because I know something bad is about to follow.

"But Colt was not aware that Benedict still had the original copy of company details which he stole from Colt, Benedict created a fake account under my name using does document in collecting profit from my other banks. This went on for some time until it came to my notice that a fake account was created under my name"

"We were able to trace it down to Benedict, I was furious because it was also linked to Colt company since a quarter of the profit also wants into his company. I cut off all business ties with him and also sued a case against him and Benedict for fraud"

"Benedict was nowhere to be found so I sent my man and the police to locate him," he says before stopping momentarily as sadness clouds his eyes" I was at the hospital with your Mum because she just had you and your twin brother" I gasp shocked from hearing does word.

Twin brother? I have a twin brother? Where is he now? Is he doing fine? Why haven't I met him, does question continues ringing in my head as a dread passes through my body.

"I was so happy watching you and your brother with Sylvia dancing happily because she finally had her wish of having younger siblings but that happiness was snatched away so quickly" I watch as tears roll down his cheeks while I wait for him to drop the bomb on me.

"After spending a few days in the hospital on our way home, it was just me, your mum, you, your brother, and a few of my men driving behind us since Sylvia was at home preparing a surprise party with everyone but before we could get home we were cornered by gunmen, they took you and your brother before me or my man could do anything"

"We later received a call from Benedict, he told me to sign half of my company under his name before he would let you and your bother go, I was prepared to do anything just to get you both back even though it means signing my company away but I got to him too late"

"He felt threatened after Colt called him telling him to let my children go free and his name cleared since he was never involved with his plans unless he would track his family down a family he did well to hide even from the police"

"He called me asking to meet alone with no police involved and his request signed but I wasn't stupid so I arrange my man round the location waiting for any danger, reaching him he had three men working for him waiting for my arrive"

"I sign the fake document under his name presenting it to him in exchange for you both freedom, he smiled happily before giving you both to me before we could understand what was going two of his boys was dead as police rush towards us armed waiting to send a bullet through his head"

"Immediately the bullet hit his head three bullet release from both his and his last boy standing one going through your brothers back on my left shoulder and one barely missing you going through my left shoulder while the third hit your shoulder"

I gasp turning my head away from him as tears roll down my cheek, I feel my legs go weak as the bomb drops on me making my body and heartbreak from the impart.

"I watch him die as the doctors tried to save his life but nothing could be done because the bullet passed through his heart, they were able to remove the bullet from your shoulder but you slipped into a coma because of the shock your heart went through" my body vibrate as sobs escape from my mouth.

At this moment I feel as if the air is being knocked out of my lungs leaving me to gasp for every breath.

Why? Why?. After everything Blake's father did to my family he still had the nerve to ask for revenge when I should be the one asking for his death.

I try calming the rage of pain I feel by taking in a deep breath, I stand up straight closing my eyes while taking deep breaths before wiping the tears from falling.

"This is just too much to take in at once, " I say meeting his worried gaze on me" but I have many questions I still need to ask but I can't find the right words or the strength to say them"

"I know, but the reason I did all this is just to protect you, I had to tell everyone that you both were dead just to protect you from harm's way" he explains with sadness lacing his voice" I know I wasn't the best Dad to you but I want you to know that I love you, I did this so you can take your part in life and learn a hard lesson from it"

Not fighting the urge to hug him I hug him placing my head on his chest welcoming the feeling of having my Dad right here, my emotions are not well settled but I just want to enjoy this feeling of him caring for me and not that cold father I grew up to know.

"We all love you," he says placing a kiss on my hair before letting go.

I force out a smile" I gave Emma a file and a shopping bag for you, tomorrow your Mum will be hosting a party and she will love for you to attend" he says before stopping waiting for my reaction.

I nod with the same forced smile on my lips"okay I will be there"

"That good" he nods before placing a kiss on my forehead" I know all this new information is overwhelming so I want you to take your time to cogitate over your next plan of action, it okay for you to cry and feel sad but don't stay down for too long" he advises patting my hair gently with an encouraging smile on his lips.

I force out a smile before weaving him goodbye, I force my legs to walk towards Emma's car feeling so much weight on my chest.

"Are you okay?" Emma asks walking towards me with a concerned look on her face.

I sigh controlling my emotion, I don't want to bother her with any of my issues right now because I don't even know where to begin from, so I just put a forced smile on my face and then walk towards her.

"I met with my Dad and not Sylvia" I shrug nonchalantly" No need to worry everything is okay between us now," I say laughing slightly just to put more effort into me being happy.

She studied me for a few seconds not believing the false excitement on my face but she chose not to push the truth out of me which I am relieved about.

"Okay if you say so. Get in the car let go" she says meeting my gaze with an intense look making my smile filter before getting into the driver's seat.

I sigh loudly before getting in, she pulled out of the park with her eyes flicking towards me with a worried expression on her face.

I gaze through the window watching the buildings, cars, and people pass by while fighting the tears from falling.

We came to a stop as the traffic light turns red with my gaze still locked outside, sob quake through my body immediately I felt her hand on my shoulder.

The tears I try fighting back came rushing through my eyes as my breath comes out labored.

I stuff my face into my palms and quake with sobs while Emma pats my hair gently.

I don't know how long I cried feeling a heavyweight in my heart but when I got myself together Emma's car was already packed in front of the house.

She pulled me into a hug patting my back as I try to take in relaxing air" Shiloh I am always here for you so please don't try to hide your problems from me" she says softly while still hugging me tightly.

I take a deep breath before pulling from her to find tears running down her cheek, I wipe the tears on her cheek feeling guilty.

I know she feels hurt because I lied about my feelings and it's hurt my heart to see her crying looking so sad" Emma, I am feeling so overwhelmed right now with all the new information running through my mind but please don't feel bad or worried I just need some time to myself to understand everything before I tell you anything" I say holding her hands in mine with a pleading look.

"I understand but just know I will be right here if you need a shoulder to cry on," She says holding my hands in assurance.

I hug once again before letting her go" Thank you" I say before opening the door.

"Wait. Your Dad said for me to give you this file and this shopping bag" she says pulling a file and two shopping bags from the back seat" I will be here tomorrow by 7 pm to get you ready for the party and guess what?" She asks looking excited which I know is an act to make me smile.

"It is a masquerade party can you believe it, I can't remember the last time I attended a masquerade party and I am so sure it gonna be dope," she says with a wide grin on her lips before handling the file and bag to me.

I shake my head with a smile on my face" Okay Emma see you tomorrow" I say closing the door before making my way up the stairs.

I open the door with my key before walking in to find Cole on the couch feeding Wilmer from his bottle while she watches a Tv show going on" welcome" she says noticing my presence.

I reply with a smile before placing a kiss on Wilmer's forehead" Cole can Wilmer please stay in your room this night" I say taking a seat beside her.

" Okay but is everything alright you look worried," she says with concern lacing her voice.

"Yeah I am okay I just need a good night's rest," I say with a smile before making my way towards my room wishing them an early good night.

Immediately the door closes behind me I slide down resting my back on the closed-door letting the tears run freely down my cheeks as every information comes running through my mind.

I clap my hand over my mouth not wanting to make any sound that will alert Chole, my body shake as fat tears roll down my cheek.

Why? why? he was just a baby, I didn't even get the time to see him or play with him before his life was taken away by that evil man, he didn't even get the time to see the world.

This is just too much to take in.

My eyes caught sight of the file and bag laying on the floor beside me, I wipe my cheeks before opening the two shopping bags.

The first bigger bag contains a well-packed dress while the other contains a shoebox and a jewelry set.

I shift the two bags away hoping to try it out later before picking the file up.

Opening the file I pull another white file with Shiloh Malia Dante Document written boldly on the file" what does this mean?" I whisper bewildered.

I open the file to find a document like my birth certificates, my school result, my admission letter, and other document but the name written on each of the documents is Shiloh Malia Dante and not Shiloh Maila Santa" What are all this?" I say looking at every document once again to make sure I am reading them right.

"Does this mean my other document are forged and these right here are the original document" I gasp shocked coming to a conclusion" Everything was made up, my name was just a lie to keep the real truth from me"

I can't believe this. I was living under a false identity that doesn't even exist.

I run my hands through my hair angrily as tears angry tears run down my cheeks" why do things have to get so complicated" why is all this happening right now?.
