Good afternoon everyone, My name is Kelvin and am a blogger, writer and a barber. I wish to begin the posting of my unpublished storybooks in hive most especially in this community. I have written more than 20 storybooks and novels that aren't yet published and I want to start by sharing one of my storybooks in this community from today. The title is The Banker's Son, is a tragi-comedy storybook and am sure you guys will benefit from it.
Desmond is a naughty boy of fifteen years old in SSS 1, he has two younger sisters known as Marlene and Christabel who are both 12 and 10 years old respectively. They are all from Delta state.
Mr. Ijarah is Desmond's father and he's a banker while Mrs. Ijarah is big doctor known as Cardiologist, she's specialize in treating heart diseases only.
Desmond usually disrespect his parents and elders, he also derive joy in beating his younger sisters up for no just reason and this has made his sisters to hate him alot. Desmond isn't supposed to do such things but he doesn't care, all he wants is caring for himself.
One day Marlene and Christabel went to their neighbor's house to play with their friends in the neighborhood while their brother was watching football match in television in the sitting room, their mother was cooking in the kitchen while their father was still in the bank.
Mrs. Ijarah's phone is in the bedroom and it began to ring, she heard the ringtone and decided to send Desmond to bring her phone to the kitchen.
"Desmond!!!", Mrs. Ijarah called.
Desmond didn't hear her voice because he increased the volume of the television and never wanted to be distracted.
"Desmond! Desmond! Are you not hearing your name? Desmond!", Mrs. Ijarah shouted.She became angry and went straight to the sitting room and switched the television off.
"Mum!! Oh!!", Desmond squawked.
"Shut up!! Why did you increase the volume of the television? Do you want the whole world to know that you are watching football match?!", Mrs. Ijarah asked angrily.
"What happened na?!", Desmond asked with a stern look.
"I have been calling you to bring my phone that has been ringing in the bedroom and you didn't hear your name", Mrs. Ijarah answered.
"Was that why you switched off the television?", Desmond asked disrespectfully.
"Shut up!", Mrs. Ijarah ordered.
"You shut up!!!", Desmond fired boldly.
"What?!", Mrs. Ijarah said in amazement and slapped Desmond hard on his cheek. Desmond slapped his mother back and they started fighting each other.
"I will soon kill you in this house, next time you will not slap me again, nonsense!", Desmond said to his own mother who was lying helplessly on the floor and went out of the house.
"Somebody help oh; Help!!", Mrs. Ijarah shouted in pains.
When Marlene and Christabel came back home, they were shocked to see their mother lying helplessly in the sitting room.
"Mummy what happened to you? Where's Desmond?", Marlene asked in fear.
"Desmond beat me up oh!", Mrs. Ijarah answered as her daughters were carrying her up from the floor.
"Desmond is wicked. Christabel go and bring me the first aid box", Marlene said. Christabel went to bring the first aid box in their room and gave it to her elder sister, her elder sister is really a smart young girl.
"Mummy where is Desmond?", Christabel asked curiously.
"He went out to no where", Mrs. Ijarah replied.
"Daddy must here this", Marlene said as she began to treat her mother's wounds with cotton wool and methylated spirit. The pains in the wounds reduced and their mother was now fine.
