Bab 432: CONVULSIONS

Derek's eyes widened, his words lost in his mouth as he heard the scream that had echoed and vibrated around the house.

That was his mother's voice!

Quickly, without minding that he hadn't given a reply to Agrip, he rushed off towards his parent's bedroom, his heart beating fast as he wondered if the worst had happened.

Behind him, Anthony and Agrip were trying to keep up pace, especially Agrip who due to his old age, couldn't walk as fast as the two young lads.

Derek burst into the room abruptly without even knocking.

His heart drowned to his stomach when he saw his mother wailing on the floor like a woman who had just lost her mate.

His eyes ran across the bed, and dilated when he saw his father convulsing and shaking violently on the bed.

Was this it? He thought, numb from what he was seeing. He couldn't act or say anything. He had never felt so useless.
