He stood in front of a mirror at eight o'clock this morning, cleaning his hair and spraying himself with perfume. At that moment, a knock came on the door of the room.
He went to the door, and Uncle Elias, an old servant of the house, was standing with a letter in his hand, and he said. "That's for you, sir." Then, after the door was closed, he went from there.He'd seen the letter with his name on it, with Happy Birthday, and under it was a bold, "Must read it."He'd seen the letter and threw it to his bed without opening it. And again began to comb his hair.And then he turned to the bed, picking up the note and opening it as he thought of those strong words.He'd always received a letter from his father on his birthday, but he didn't bother to read it. But there was something remarkable about this day and it was his 20th birthday.He opened the letter and started reading.My dear Son, you're having a wonderful birthday. I'm not sure if I'm a good dad, But I know that I am very fond of you. I've been sending you letters before, although I don't know if you've answered them or not, and this time I made it clear to you that you need to have a look at them. I'm going to meet you and give you a birthday present. You're supposed to be ready by two o'clock today, my driver's going to pick you up at two o'clock. good bye.Your father Mr. Edwards.-----------------------------------------It was an extremely hot day at 1:50 p.m., and he was standing on the main road, waiting for his father's car to take him up.Sweat was dripping from his forehead due to intense heat. He kept looking at his watch and was angry with himself that he had left the house ten minutes earlier.He looked at his watch again, it was exactly two o'clock and a white car stopped right in front of him.The driver requested Mr. Ryan to sit in the car via the window.Ryan stared at him at first, then opened the car door and sat down. On the way, he kept wondering that he was seeing his father after a long time, not knowing whether he would recognise him or how his father would recognise him.He had the impression that his father had never wanted to meet him all these years, and that his father didn't love him.Then suddenly he shook his head and dismissed the ridiculous thought.The car stopped in front of a graceful bungalowlike office after half an hour. The driver got out of the car and opened the door for him.There was a four foot tall girl wearing a white shirt and a black skirt when he got out of the car.As Ryan stepped out of the car, a young girl greeted him warmly, saying, "You are most welcome, sir."Ryan acknowledged her with a faint smile. Following her instructions, he began to trail her.As they proceeded, two guards stationed outside an office snapped into salute upon seeing him.Momentarily perplexed, he paused for a brief moment before continuing on his way. Moving a little further, the girl approached the reception desk and inquired about the whereabouts of Mr. Edwards.The receptionist's gaze fixated on Ryan, and she swiftly picked up the phone to call Mr. Edwards. After a span of five minutes, she informed him that Mr. Edwards was indeed in his room and granted them permission to proceed.Just a few steps away, an elevator awaited their arrival. They stepped inside, and as the doors closed, a palpable silence settled between them. After a brief moment, the girl turned her gaze towards him and ventured to ask a question that seemed to linger on her mind: "Are you truly Mr. Edward's biological son?" Ryan, without averting his gaze, replied with a simple yet affirmative "Yes."Time passed, and the silence persisted as the elevator carried them towards their destination. He could feel a growing unease within her, his discomfort intensifying with each passing second. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, the elevator doors slid open, revealing the corridor leading to Mr. Edwards's room. With a shared sense of purpose, they embarked on their journey, Ryan's apprehension evident in his every step.As they made their way down the corridor, a room-like office with elegant glass doors caught their attention. Curiosity piqued, the girl seized the opportunity and opened the door, gesturing for him to wait inside. Her words filled the air as she spoke respectfully, "Sir, please wait here. Mr. Edwards will be joining you shortly."Seated in a chair, he observed the entire room with a discerning gaze.The atmosphere was filled with anticipation as Mr. Edwards entered, causing an immediate surge of alertness within him. The door swung open, and Mr. Edwards approached from behind, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder.Reacting swiftly, he rose from his seat, embracing his father warmly. "How are you, my son?" He inquired, genuine affection radiating from his words. "I'm good," he responded, his lips curving into a faint smile.His attentive eyes never wavered from his father, carefully noting any subtle changes in his demeanor. Despite the passage of time, Mr. Edwards remained a steadfast and loving presence in his life, consistently displaying unwavering warmth.However, over the years, he himself had undergone a significant transformation, with his personality now tinged with a noticeable aggressiveness.Sitting on the rolling chair positioned before him, Mr. Edwards engaged in a heartfelt conversation with his son. As they sat face to face, he began to recount the arduous journey of his life, reminiscing about the years he had spent in solitude. Ryan, the attentive listener, absorbed his father's words in silence. However, at a certain point, he halted the narrative and mustered the courage to question his father's absence from his life."Why haven't you lived with me?" He inquired, his voice laced with a mixture of curiosity and longing. Mr. Edwards, his eyes moist with unshed tears, struggled to maintain composure as he responded. He confessed that he had yearned to be by his son's side but had been restrained by the disapproval of Ryan's mother.With a sudden surge of emotion, Mr. Edwards abruptly rose from his seat, a determined look on his face.He hurriedly retrieved several files from the table before them, bringing them back to the conversation.With a gentle smile, Mr. Edwards extended the property files to his son, symbolizing his intention to transfer the business into his name. As the sole heir, he hoped that his son would take charge of the enterprise while pursuing his education. The exchange carried a sense of paternal pride and the belief that his son had embraced this birthday present and the responsibilities that came with it.Moon's embrace, an enchanting grace." ~Unknown "OMG !!! Luna! you're sitting here, and I've been looking for you all over the house."Eva said curiously. Luna who was sitting on a swing in the lawn, her eyes fixed on the vast expanse of the sky above. Luna held a pen in one hand, poised over a diary resting on her lap. "You've come to make me uncomfortable." Luna said she'd put the pen in the diary. "I didn't come here to disturb you but to welcome you. At the dining table, they all wait for you." There was a small smile on Eva's face as she revealed that everyone was eagerly waiting for Luna at the dinner table. Rising from her seat, Luna carefully picked up her diary and slipped her feet into a pair of comfortable slippers. With a reassurance to Eva that she would be joining her shortly, Luna embarked on the journey towards the house. Curiosity getting the better of her, Eva couldn't resist asking Luna about the name of the story she had been diligently working on for the pas
In the darkness of the night, he strolled along the roadside, while the mountains ahead stood adorned with a blanket of snow. The biting cold made his hands tremble uncontrollably, despite the warmth provided by his woolen sweater. However, his journey seemed destined to fall short of reaching its intended endpoint. After a brief ten-minute stroll, he arrived home with rosy cheeks caused by the chilly weather. Upon entering the house, he observed that all the lights were extinguished and everyone was fast asleep. He proceeded to enter his mother's bedroom and discovered her sound asleep. He then made his way to his sisters' room, where he found her in a slumbering state as well. Finally, he arrived at his own room. In the midst of that chilly night, he sat before the heater, deep in contemplation. Leo's countenance displayed sorrow, stemming from the departure of his father, who had left behind his mother and sisters, causing a persistent sense of unease within him. His mother sing
The hotness of the sun peeked in through the partially open window, casting a beam of light onto her smooth skin, rousing her from slumber. She gently massaged her eyes to shake off sleepiness before retrieving her phone from the nearby table. As she glanced at the time, she was taken aback. Her eyes swiftly shifted towards the curtains, allowing her to catch a glimpse of the dazzling brightness outside. It was already 10:00 am in the morning, a stroke of luck that it happened to be the weekend, or else she would have faced the risk of being late from university.After rising from her bed, she gathered her blonde hair into a ponytail, She moved her head from side to side to relieve the tension from sleeping in one position all night, got to her slippers, and made her way to the bathroom to freshen up. After a quick shower she walk over to her dresser , tugged her hair out of the towel , she began to blow dry it. Then she glance herself in a mirror to make sure that she's looking perfe
Ryan Edwards took a deep breath after sharing his insurance information with Luna and Eva, the girls who scratched his car. He then walked towards his father's office, he couldn't help but feel a sense of nervousness about the conversation ahead.The corridor had shiny glass windows that showed the busy city outside. As he got closer to the big oak door with his father's name on it, he fixed his tie, he gathered his thoughts. He had made a decision that he knew would require a delicate conversation with his father.Knocking lightly, Ryan waited for his father's voice to invite him in. "Come in," his father called out from within.Ryan opened the door and entered the office, greeted by the familiar scent of leather-bound books and the sight of his father behind a massive mahogany desk, engrossed in paperwork."Ryan, my boy, come in," his father said, looking up with a warm smile. "What brings you here today?""Dad, I have something important I need to discuss with you," Ryan began, his
Leo was alone in his room, which was like a safe and quiet place for him. But now, he felt very troubled and sad because he had learned something terrible about his dad. It felt like a heavy burden on his heart, and the room that used to make him feel calm now made him feel uncomfortable. Everything seemed to be too close and tight as Leo tried to understand the truth that had completely changed how he saw his family.Leo couldn't sit still any longer, so he got up and started walking back and forth, his mind filled with numerous questions and uncertainties. He couldn't keep his restless thoughts to himself any further, realizing that he had to face his mother and find the elusive answers he sought.Leo made his way to his mother's room, hesitating for a moment outside the closed door. The echoes of his racing heartbeat reverberated through his chest as he summoned the courage to knock softly.Leo: "Mom, can I talk to you for a moment? There's something important I need to discuss."Th
At 10 in the morning, Leo woke up and got out of bed. He walked down the stairs to the lower floor of his house. The sunlight was shining through the windows, making everything look bright and nice. He was still a bit sleepy and stretched his arms while he walked. The stairs made a little squeaky sound under his feet. It was like a signal that a new day had started. Leo decided to start his day with a healthy choice and reached for an apple from the fruit basket. As he looked around, he realized that his sister and mother were still fast asleep in his room, unaware of the morning's activities. With the apple in hand, he retraced his steps, making his way back towards his room. Upon entering, he gently closed the door behind him so as not to disturb his sleeping family members. The room was filled with a serene quietness, and rays of sunlight filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow over everything. Leo's eyes were drawn to the balcony, beckoning him with the promise of a re
Luna was on a swing in the garden during the evening. The sky was dark blue, and the moon was really bright. No birds were making noise; everything was quiet. The moonlight made the garden look special. There was a gentle breeze, and the leaves moved a little. Luna felt peaceful as she swung, looking at the beautiful moonlight.She was reading her favorite book in a peaceful environment. Her fingers traced patterns in the air as her mind wandered through the pages of the book resting on her lap.The garden gate swung open, and Luna's sister, Eva, entered with a playful grin. "Well, well, what do we have here? The swing-set reader?"Luna looked up, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. "You caught me. There's something enchanting about reading in the midst of nature."Luna patted the seat of the swing beside her, inviting Eva to join. "Come experience it for yourself," she said with a chuckle. Eva hesitated for a moment before giving in to Luna's invitation, taking a seat on the
He was on his balcony, observing the splendid moon and savoring the calmness of the night.As he stood on his balcony, a gentle breeze rustled through the air, carrying with it the soothing scent of the night. The moon's soft glow illuminated the surroundings, casting long shadows that danced across the landscape. He found himself lost in the beauty of moon.Startled by the unexpected sound, he hurried back into the room to reach his phone. With a slight sense of interruption, he answered the call, wondering who might be trying to reach him at this late hour. The call came from an unfamiliar number, but upon answering, he was surprised to hear his father's voice. His father shared the news that he would be moving in permanently to live with him at his home.Upon receiving this news, a wave of happiness washed over him. He stepped outside of his room, his heart a little lighter with the anticipation of the time he would soon spend with his father.Leaving his room, he called out to Un
