Chapter 3
"Sir, can you tell me where Dawson Boulev-"Duo looked up at the soldier and stopped himself. "Never mind, I already know you can't talk." He looked around trying to find someone who at least looked willing to stop and help him. Luck came his way as a young girl around his age practically stumbled on top of him trying to balanced an over packed armload of groceries. "Whoa! Watch it." Duo said with a chuckle taking a few of the girl's load off of her. The girl looked at him and gave a smile to him.
"Oh, I'm terribly sorry" she said swiping a wisp of wavy brown hair behind her ear. "I think I shopped for too many groceries."
"Yeah no kidding, how about I help you out here?" Duo offered giving the girl a friendly grin he looked at him a moment in judgment bother nodding.
"Thank you my good sir" She said sarcastically.
"In turn could you PLEASE tell me where Dawson Boulevard is?" Duo asked as the girl started heading in her destinations direction.
"My my aren't you lucky," she giggled. "That's just where I'm headed I work on that street, Clearwater mansion."
"You're shitting me right?!" Duo screeched almost dropping the groceries he held. The girl let out a light laugh.
"I'm a secretary/housekeeper to one of the house's occupant, heard of Quatre Winner?" She asked as she turned the corner.
"No, I'm Duo by the way, Duo Maxwell"
"Ah an American I thought so, my names Eve Walker" She said looking back at Duo an almost childish mirth glowed in her gray eyes "So what has you so interested in Dawson Boulevard?"
"That's the really freaky part, I was headed for Clearwater manor, you see my dad, he's Miles Clearwater." Duo said sheepishly. Eve dropped her groceries in shock.
"You're joking.right!?" She screeched.
"Um.no I have the birth certificate to prove it if that helps at all." Duo said hopefully. Eve ignored the groceries on the floor and looked at Duo closely.
"My lord.you have his eyes" She whispered in shock then as quickly as she was is shock she became slightly worried. She turned around and picked up the groceries. "My dear boy, you have no idea what you're getting into do you?"
"Huh?" he asked.
"Nothing, I guess I better let you know a few things about Miles Clearwater before you meet him."
"Why?"
"They're just obvious facts" Eve sighed "He's running for foreign minister so is under constant vigilance of the press, he's about to marry his advisor's daughter. Her name is Anita. She's been married twice and both her husbands passed on. She has 3 children, here's where things get a little complicated to try and keep track got it?" Eve turned to look at Duo.
"Ok" Duo said quite shocked at all the information the girl was throwing at him. During the conversation they had moved considerably quickly and were now standing before Clearwater Manor. "I'll tell you in a second ok? Whatever you do follow my lead." She whispered as she approached the great metal gate. A soldier came to face her on the other side.
"Good day Ms. Walker" the soldier greeted courteously then he looked at Duo. "And who seems to be your guest?"
"Duo Maxwell, he's offered me some help in my studies." Eve retorted with out even blinking. The soldier nodded accepting the reason and opened the gate. Duo walked past the gates and stared in awe at the gardens he walked in. It was almost like some sort of fairy tale.
"So, what were you talking about my.umm... step siblings?" Duo asked. Eve sighed.
"Well you have three of them, Miliardo Peacecraft, Relena Peacecraft, and Quatre Winner" Eve replied as the approached a grand estate. It was at least 4 stories, and the windows shone like gold in the sunlight. Eve motioned for him to follow her through a side door. They entered a kitchen and placed the groceries on the counter. "Miliardo is 21; he's barely at the house because he's constantly off studying. Relena is ALWAYS here, like her mother she's trying to gain some sort of foot hold in society through your father. She's your age. Quatre Winner is THEIR step brother as well; he was the son of Anita's second husband Aral Winner. Aral Winner's first wife passed away after giving birth to Quatre, when he died his company was passed onto Quatre and Quatre was put under the guardianship of Anita, the poor boy has been running the company since he was 16. He's your age too." She said while putting groceries away.
"I don't think I'll really care about this Miliardo dude, and I really wanna meet Quatre, he seems like a cool guy!"
"I think Quatre would get some good from meeting you, you seem like a good kid." Eve sighed sitting on a stool, "So what about Relena"
"I don't think I'll get along with her but, if I want to be accepted I guess I'll put up with her." Duo shrugged. Eve smiled.
"That's about the only thing you can do." Eve paused and looked at Duo straight in the eyes. "You understand that going into this family may cause some. problems" Duo nodded.
"I've come all the way from New York, I expect to at least meet him" Duo said. Eve agreed.
"Well then, before we figure out how to um. introduce you to the family I guess you better lay low in my room." Eve said grabbing Duo and leading him up a narrow stairwell and leading him to a medium sized room with a connecting bathroom. "Stay here I don't want anyone to find out about you earlier than planned, I'm going to go do some errands around the house I'll be back as soon as possible." Eve said leaving the room. Duo looked around the room and was slowly getting bored by the second. He sat on the comfortable bed and dug through his bag before removing a sketch pad and paper. He looked around the room and found nothing that could grab his attention for too long. He turned to the bay window across the room and settled there before looking, below was a beautiful flower garden filled with bold and bright colors, an old woman serenely sat in the middle of the flowers and read an equally old book in her frail hands. Duo smiled to himself as he flipped through the sketch book and found a clean page. He took a pencil and began sketching. It was an hour before Duo had finished the outline and a few details. He looked down and couldn't get the old woman's serene details on her face. Ignoring Eve's warning of leaving the room he quickly ran down the narrow stairway and before reaching the last step tripped and fell out the door and landed on some one. He stood up rubbing his head that had connected with a more solid object that he guessed was the side of the counter. Before Duo could fully be conscious of what was going on he heard an ear piercing scream.
"MOTHER!!!!!"
TBC.
Uh-oh.bad Duo! Baka DUO!! What will happen now? Gee I wonder who Duo "bumped" into. I'll give you only one guess. REMEMBER REVIEW for another chapter!
