Chapter 30

I hugged him placing his head on my stomach, as he hugged my waist. He was just like a kid, a crying kid!

"I can't believe she left you." I said in an attempt to console him.

"She didn't!" He lifted his head. "My mother never left me!" He said and I looked at him confused. "Claudia confessed it all and told me exactly what happened."

"What..." I was scared to ask what happened. I didn't want to know the outcome of it. "... happened?"

"Claudia beheaded my mother!" He dropped the bombshell and I couldn't help but shudder. It frightened me.

Oscar had tears whelming up at the corner of his eyes. He looked at my frightened expression and stood up. Without saying anything else, he headed for the door. He looked back at me with a sad expression.

"I shouldn't have told you this." He lowered his head. "I scared you, didn't I?" It was a question but it didn't look like he was going to stay to hear my answer.
