Bentley was driving through the rain falls in direction of a village. The car was jumping very much on the road holes. Being patient the driver was driving slowly taking care of the bed road. The village houses were shrouded with the heavy rain. He could not orientate in which direction he has to drive.

Fortunately he noticed a public house by the road. He stopped the car in front the door. The pub looked to be working. Entering in the room he noticed a few men sitting by the bar. They took a look at newcomer.

- What is the road for “Eagle Nest”? He asked the barmen.

- You are on the right road! He replied. — But take care of holes.

- Road is damaged…added the man by the bar. — You will hardly be able to drive on it?

- Thank you…said the driver. — I’ll try…

The man started the motor again. The car was driving slowly. He tried to avoid damages on the road.

The road became steep. It was leading to the hill. The car was swinging on the road holes. The driver was persistent. He drove feet by feet towards a slope in front of him.

Finely he reached to the end of the asphalt. The rest of the road he has to walk. The man took a bag from the car. Walking in between the pools with water on the stony path excited him. A house showed in front of him through the rain falls.

The man stopped in front of the house. The door was damaged. He pushed it with the hand. The door fell aside. Entering in the house contented him.

Some light was breaking through the windows without glasses. The interior was in entire disorder. The man put off the travel bag aside. Taking a look around the house pleased him.

He succeeded to find the day room. All the furniture was damaged. He took a seat on a chair that was still in order.

The memories came through. Father was sitting right there in front of him. Smoking the pipe in long evenings was giving a pleasure to him. His sister Kate was a small girl, a few years younger than him. She was playing with a doll near him. His brother Robert was sitting on the other side of the room. He was two years older than him.

He felt water drops on his head and the cloth. The roof was damaged. It was letting the rain in the house. He tried to replace the chair in another corner. Finely he found a better site in the room.

Robert was always against him. He used to call him gipsy what was the truth. His father’s family adopted him.

It was a rainy day like today. A gipsy girl knocked on the door. Mother was in the house with Robert. Through the door she noticed the girl with the baby in her hands wrapped by cloth.

Dear lady… The girl said. — Can you watch my child for a while…? He’s already

wet… I’ve to go to the village for an hour.

Mother could not refuse her. The baby was already wet and frozen to by rain and coldness. Mother had compassion on the child. She took it.

She was changing baby’s cloth by Roberts one. The child was happily looking at her.

- Baby boy… She said. — Lovely child…

She fed the baby with Robert’s food. The child fell asleep on the bench.

Gipsy girl never came back. That day father came home late from the village. He saw the baby in the house.

Mother tried to explain him what happened. She was wondering what to do with the baby. Having a great hart father decided to adopt the child. He gave him the name David. He became the new member of Hastings family.

The rain was falling even more now. David walked to the door. It was early afternoon. He had to decide what to do. He must find boarding in the village.

Taking a look on the surroundings he noticed a rider on the horse. He was riding up the hill in direction of the house.

David was wondering who it could be. He stepped out of the door in the rain. The view was reaching far down hill on the green meadows. So far the look could reach the land belonged to Eagle Nest ranch which was now his property.

One time the cattle were pasturing on the meadows. Stables were full of cows, sheep and horses. He took a look to the stables not far from the house. Most of them were crumbled into ruins.

He went back in the house being wet from the rain. He was always working in the fields with father since he was a very small boy. Robert did not like the cattle neither the ranch.

Mother passed away when he was at very tiny age. Since then father was leading them through the life. Robert was mainly opposing to him. Being the gipsy his complexion was darkish, different than his brother and sister, who were blonde.

The rider reached the plain in front of house. He could hear horse trotting in vicinity. Coming to the door he noticed the rider approaching the house. The horse stooped in front of the house.

- Hi… He heard. — I’m from the neiborough ranch…

- Hi…

He noticed that rider was a girl. She had a rain coat on herself.

- I’d offer you in the house… He added. — But it’s all ruined inside…

- I know…She added. — Are you a new owner of the ranch?

- Yeah…

- If you need a help come to us… She said. — My mother is Robert’s sister…

- Robert…Who…?

- He sold you the ranch…

- Sure…

He took a long glance at her. Is it possible? She is Kate’s daughter.

- My name is David… He said.

- Suzan…

The girl was tall and pretty. Having blonde hair and blue eyes she was leaving an impressive look.

- Send regards to your family… He said. — I’ll come to visit you…

- Thanks…

In a while the girl left. Watching her riding downhill excited him. His sister Kate had a beautiful daughter he wondered. She looked like her mother who was blonde and attractive in her age. How does she look now…?

He had to find the boarding in the village. In this house he could not live. It will take a long time until he repairs it.

********************

After the ride in the rain Suzan arrived home. Having a great impression of David she wanted to tell her mother about it.

She left the horse in the stable. Mother was sitting in the day room. She was reading a book.

- Have you seen the new owner… asked Kate.

- Yeah…

- Mother, David’s very impressive guy…? She said.

- Who’s David?

- The new owner of the ranch…

Kate stopped talking for a moment. She was thinking about something.

- How does he look? She said.

- He’s tall, handsome guy… added Suzan. — Grayish haired…

An excitement overcame Kate. She approached the window. Her long glance was stem against Eagle Nest.

- His car is not any more there? She said.

- He must have been left…added Suzan.

Kate went to her bedroom. Her daughter saw her being excited what she did not like.

The memories came through to the time when Kate was a child. David was her step brother. She loved him much more than Robert. Being three years older than her he was her partner in a play.

His tiny room was in the loft. Whenever thunder had been roaring she used to go to his room. They were sleeping hugged and squeezed each to other.

The vision of the young boy came up to her minds. Two tears fall down her face.

Suzan entered the room. — Mamma… She said. — What’s going on?

- Nothing…

- Are you crying? Added Suzan.

Kate did not reply. Her minds were occupied with something that happened a long ago. Is the new owner of the ranch her brother David?

- Mamma…insisted Suzan. — Something is going on…?

- Yeah…

After a break Kate began to speak. — The name of my step brother was David!

- One who disappeared in America…?

- Yeah…

A silence sized them. — You believe that he came back…? Suzan said.

- Maybe…

- He’s so reach…added Suzan. — He’s driving Bentley…

- Sure…said Kate. — He offered double prize for the ranch. Double than any other buyer?

- But how did not you recognize him by name? Asked Suzan.

- Robert gave me only his family name Mr. Steel, added Kate. — That’s not his real name…?

- We’ll know it tomorrow…? Said Suzan. — You’ll meet him…?

- Yeah…

Suzan left the room. David’s vision came up to her mind again. It was summer time. They were running down the hill to the crick.

She remembered when the first time David paid attention of her like a woman. They were swimming in the fresh water of the crick both naked. He was watching her tiny nude body for a long. Her tits were not yet grown up. Just tiny nipples were sticking out quite a lot. Her ass was quite swell out and round.

“How old I could be than? She murmured. — Maybe seven or eight…?

After swimming they were lying on the grass hugged. He was caressing her tiny, nude tits. His fingers were playing with the nipples. He was pulling his finger in her pussy a little.

She was watching his tiny cock and the balls. He had no hair yet there. Her fingers were playing with his penis. He was caressing softly her round ass.

Once or twice Robert was with them. He was afraid from the water. He remained on the grass while they were swimming. He was child than to feel their nudity.

Robert hated David. He used to call him gipsy. He was always opposing him in the plays they were doing.

Kate heard somebody opening the door. This must be Jeff, her husband. He should not see her in such condition. She wiped up the tears with handkearchief.

She remained silent in the room for several minutes. Taking a look in the mirror contented her. Her look was perfect. The beautifull blue eyes created a lovely impression of her face. The blonde hair was carefully combed back.

Entering the day room she cought sight of Jeff and Suzan watching television. Suzan reduced the voice seeing her.

- Hi mamma… she said.

- Suzan told me abot your step brother?! Said Jeff. — Is it possible…?

Kate did not reply. She remained silent.

- We’ll know tomorrow? Said Suzan. — She ‘ll visit him at the ranch…?

Kate joined them. Her husbent Jeff was much older than her. He was tall, old gentlemen.

Kate’s minds were occupied with David. Where’s him now? He must have been found a boarding in the village.

She decided to go to the ranch tomorrow. How will be their meeting? How does he look?
