The Lord's Arrival

Days went by so fast since Lord Ekr travelled to another town for an important meeting.

The butler announced the Arrival of Lord Ekr to every one in the castle. All the workers in the castle were so busy trying to make the castle look more Beautiful and neat. Some were busy in the kitchen preparing Dinner for the family.

The carriage arrived at the castle, all the royal family members were outside waiting for him.

" He's here, announced Leya Ekr's Aunt.

Lord Ekr got out of the carriage. He walked majestically to his family members. Patrick his cousin followed behind with two other Guards.

Being the Rude Lord he was, He only hugged his Grandmother before heading into the castle. His face was always covered in a mask around the public. No one could say, they have seen his face before.

Lord Ekr never wanted anyone to see his face except his family members who already knew him. Not even the servants dared to look at him. They feared to get punished, it was a crime to look at the Lord straight in the eyes.

" So Rude! Leya whined.

They all went back inside the castle. Different types of Food was served by the servants.

Ekr took off his mask and sat quietly on the dinning chair waiting for his food to be served by the servants.

" I think this is a great opportunity to share the good news, Tom said holding his wife's hand Sara.

" News? what News? Leya asked surprisely.

" yes Mom good news, Tom replied.

" Go on Grandson, tell us the good news. Their Grandma spoke.

" My wife Sara is pregnant, he said in excitement. Everyone was stormed by the news.

" oh, leya said. But son isn't it too early to have a baby we are not sure if your wife has really changed.

" Leya please! they are married now it's them to decide when to have a baby! Tyson her husband scolded.

" I was just saying Ty!

" oh congratulations to both of you. wow am going to be a great Grandmother, so sweet.

" thank you Grandma, am so happy too.

" Congratulations bro wow am going to be an uncle, Patrick said.

" yes Patrick bro.

" well son as your father, am happy with the news at least we will have someone to run around the castle. Before Ekr and Patrick were the ones who used to run around the castle but now they are men, he said Jokely.

Ekr was quiet all the time, he ate his food quietly and never passed any comments on anything. Everyone around him got used with his attitude. Patrick his cousin was his right hand man, he spoke on his behalf during meetings and all matters that needed to be addressed by the Lord.

Dinner was done, Ekr left the table with his grandmother first before everyone else did. That was a way of showing respect to him as Lord and Susan his Grandmother as head lady.

" Hey dear, did you have a great day on your trip? His Grandmother asked while they walked. She acted as a mother to him and she was the only one he got attached to after his parents.

" No, he answered coldly.

" please try to have fun Ekr, I will love to see you happy some day please.

" Good night Grandma, he hugged her.

Leya was so angry. She couldn't believe that Sara was actually pregnant for her son.
