There were a few moments of silence as the two boys glared at one another. Finally, Miles was the one to break the silence with a confronting tone, “Who are you? Why are you in my house?” 

 

“It’s you?” Ollie’s hand was still on the doorknob. His heart throbbed anxiously, but he soon relaxed when he noticed that no one else was at home. He stepped onto the porch and slowly took off his shoes before taking out another pair of adorable slippers from the shoe cabinet to change into. 

Miles stared daggers at Ollie. Not only did this boy sleep in his house and answered his calls, but he was also wearing his shoes? 

“You! Get out!” Miles puffed his cheeks and pointed angrily at the door. His crystal-clear eyes were filled with rage that exploded like a volcanic eruption. 

This was the boy who took his place with his mother the night before! 

“I suppose you don’t know who I am just yet,” muttered Ollie. He paused and ignored Miles’ furious reaction to set his school bag aside before extending his hand toward Miles. “Hello, my name is Ollie Mason.” 

His composure was a distinct contrast with Miles’s anger. 

‘Ollie? Isn’t that the young Master Grandpa Albert was referring to? So Grandpa Albert mistook me for this boy, and my mom thought that Ollie was me?’ 

“You!” Miles felt that he should be angry, but he simply placed his hands on his waist when Ollie reached his hand over and said. “You probably have a great time pretending to be me, but I’ve been suffering, thanks to you!” he growled. “That adult of a demon in your house locked me up! I hate him!” 

Ollie straightened his back stiffly and said, “That’s my father, and I won’t allow you to talk about him like that.” 

“You say that he’s your father, but he locks you up over the smallest things! What kind of father does that?” Miles retorted like an angry little kitty out of sympathy for Ollie. “That guy is even worse than that old trash whom I’m supposed to call my dad.” 

At the very least, Jamie had never punished him physically. 

Ollie’s body stiffened as he pursed his lips, and disappointment filled his eyes.
