Star Country,

FCT,

Gold District.

Carl was woken by the splash of cold water, he jumped up and looked around. Standing by his bedside was his father, stepmother and a few guards. He was a little bit surprised.

"What is going on?" Carl asked with a frown on his face not caring the least bit about what the problem really is. He was already used to his father's irritated face and the mockery in his stepmother's eyes.

His father grew more irritated by his question. "Bastard!", He screamed, "How dare you ask that?" He went towards Carl and a loud 'kpa' was heard. Yes, Carl was slapped by his father, it wasn't the first time, he wasn't bordered by it. With a look of pure indifference in his eyes, he sat down and repeated his first question; "what's going on?"

His father's expression grew darker when Carl sat down, he told his body guards to hold him down and whip him. Carl's eyes were inexpressive as he received the whips. The only sound that was heard for 5 minutes was the whip hitting Carl's back.

"Stop!" Yelled his stepmother. Pretending like she couldn't take it anymore, she went towards Carl, "Carl, I know I am indeed beautiful, but I am your stepmother, what you did last night is unpardonable.." before she could conclude, his father interrupted her, with a scoff and a look of derision in his eyes he said, "unpardonable? He should be locked up! He is a disgrace to the family name, what would the people say if they find out?"

At this point, Carl was more than confused, he could not comprehend what they were talking about. His head was hurting, he tried to recall the last 12 hours, yesterday was his stepbrother's birthday, he retired to his room early with the help of a maid because he felt a little light headed, that was all he could remember. What could have possibly gone wrong in 12 hours? These thoughts kept running through his head since no one was giving him a proper answer.

"You tried to **** your mother last night and you have the guts to sit down here with that face!", when he heard his father he was more than surprised. "****?..Who?..Me?..When?" The more questions he asked the more his father's face contorted in rage.

"Seize his cards and his phone, do not let him take a thing from this house, escort him to State A, City 1, Lower province, he is not allowed to leave for the next 5 years. I want him out of my house in 5 minutes". After saying those words, his father turned around, leaving Carl speechless, without a chance to tell his side of his story. Damn! He didn't even know his side of the story.

"Leave" his stepmother said to the guards, they couldn't object so they stood outside the door.

With a smirk on her face, his stepmother looked at him, "My dear Carl, you might be wondering what is going on, since you're already leaving, I might as well tell you.. or maybe I shouldn't" She laughed as she walked out of the room.

State A,

City 1,

Lower province.

An hour later, Carl was thrown out of the car by his father's guards, the car immediately turned around, leaving a trail of dust in the morning air. In less than 12 hours, he was homeless, penniless and hopeless. He couldn't fathom what went wrong, when it went wrong or even how. He was a worn out, his clothes still cold from this morning. His stomach growled.

He stood for a while in a daze, a while later, he started moving, he didn't know where he was headed to, he hasn't been to this parts before, it felt weird. He felt out of place.

He saw a bench, he sat down, staring at the slippers on his legs, he scoffed. He wasn't given a chance to change out of his clothes.

"What happened last night?" He asked himself, for the love of God he couldn't remember. He tried putting two and two together. "I drank just two glasses of wine, surely it shouldn't have much effect on me.. except..."

"Haha haha haha" he went in selfmockery, how could he have fallen for another one of her traps. The only conclusion he could come up with was that he was drugged by his stepmother. Apart from that, he was clueless.

While he was in deep thought, he heard someone scream...
