Adonis, always ruled others life, calculation for billion dollars was all that he liked.
Hema, always lives life for other's likes, never once she stopped to love and look for others smile and happiness.
What happens when fates takes to calculate...
My Dad is something else, out of all places he chose this place to hide. I reached Chennai (city in southern part of India) yesterday night. With just two hours of sleep, I was forced to wake up early to join video conference call with productive investors from China and Dubai. I am planning to meet my Dad this evening to resolve issues and do whatever it takes to reduce his anger and take him back home. My brother and sisters are missing him badly and fro the fact I know it even them without voicing out. Though with sour feeling in my muscles from jet lag and lack of sleep, I am going this evening to resolve our fight which we had before he left. I need to go and meet him at this old age home which is running by his old best friend. When I think about my tight of schedule it irritates me to core that my dad decided to play this childish of hide and seek game.
Flashback:
Can't he just drop the topic? My reply for his question is a big NO and even when I said for nth he refused to accept it. "I am not getting any younger James, you have to stop playing around and settle down with one "my Dad again muttered and breathed out. He always calls me by my middle name. I love my family but never showed them I don't like showing any emotion or experiencing any new emotion. I don't do relationship, girls throw themselves at me and I enjoy what they offer. Who will say no when they get good deal for a night. After my mother died I distanced myself from all and after my girlfriend cheated on me with my once best friend turned enemy made to realize all girls are only after money. No one is exceptional. So why to have feelings when hurt is end result. Reputation of being a player has nothing to do with business. "Dad it's not my wrong that girls throw themselves to me I just take what they give ", I replied in a bored tone. " If you decided not to listen even a single thing then why do I be considered as your father? Out people are naming you as play boy and you don't even care about it. The last client from China has canceled the deal because you were flirting with his daughter. Is this you are telling that nothing happened "with that said he left my cabin. Before he left, he said that at least I know to take care of my siblings. I rubbed my face in irritation from my conversation with my father
End of flash back
At that time I didn't understand what my dad meant of me taking care of my younger ones but after his disappear I understood what he meant. And now I need is to convince him.
One minute I am walking in the lobby replying to an important mail then next moment I found my mobile flying from my hand and met with floor making crack sound and thud of a body followed by it. I was too busy to collect my broken cell phone and failed to notice a voice cursing at me.
With the rage I turned around to meet the owner of the noise who managed to ruin my already ruined day but stunned to meet the beautiful brown eyes that reminds of dark chocolate. Only when you focus you could find the black like rim around those brown orbs. I felt lost and hearing the soft cry I woke up from my daze. She stood up with pain evident on her face and when she looked up her brown eyes spoke volume, now she is angry which pulled me back to current situation.

"Have you lost your mind, can't you watch where you walk. See, standing like a statue, hello mister, are you a deaf?" she was shouting for which I stood amused because she didn't use any profanities and thinking that this would knock some sense to me. Oh baby you are really mistaking that this would affect me. With my lack of response she huffed and left the place. Not before naming me and my phone as dumb.
I watched her disappearing which looks like a dinning arena, thought of following her but I reminded myself why I came here in first place and turned around to meet my dad and make amendment. I have no idea how to convince him but my siblings need him and my brother is on the way to graduate high school and I have a deal to close next month for which I need to go to Dubai. If not now then I don't know when to convince him. I am stubborn just like him. My lip curled recalling my mother words "LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON" , because we both are hard headed, doesn't accept failure or no easily, once we fix something we get to that. And now my dad doing this is to get his way and I preferred to stay away to get my way. With everything going around, I don't think dad playing this game is necessary and partial truth is I do miss him. Though we argue, fight and walk out of each other, he always had my back and I always made sure he is comfortable and good. I love him and my siblings. It's just that I don't show them because emotions make you weak and being a business man you need to learn to mask and play it well. And with my rambling thoughts, car pulled in front of the old gate. I took deep breath, checked my emotions in place. Now all I need to do is, convince my dad and stop this stupid game.
