3_ his father

Simon"

As I walk through the entrance of the hospital I immediately ask the information desk when the nurse told me that my father is in the operating room. I got so dizzy and my legs were shaking. 

I found out that my father was involved in a car accident on the way back home from the office. 

For me, it's so absurd my father is

a precautionary person too cautious actually. Maybe there's no perfect in this world. And my father is not accepted.

I comb my hair using my two hands, what's going to happen next? I couldn't be like him, always busy, and didn't have time for everything or everyone. That's why my mother died because of him because he doesn't have time for us. As he remembers his mother instantly tears fall into his eyes. How dare him to die like this. 

Great Simon Sr. Henderson couldn't die just like how my mother died even though he deserved to. He can't leave me all alone! But my world crashed in front of me when the doctor came out in the operating room and told us sorry. 

no! it can be happening! 

I instantly grab his collar and push back and forth. I don't care if the small man I've shaken is a doctor. I shout out to him to bring back my old man! 

"no, he can't die!" 

But my aunt tried to restrain me from giving so much damage to the doctor. She tries to calm me. Pat my shoulder and tell me everything is going to be okay. 

I closed my eyes and I inhaled and blew it out with so much frustration. I walk outside to relax my nerves. 

It's almost afternoon and the sun is about to descend like my life now. I sat on one of the benches I saw outside of the hospital. 

Think about what will happen to me. All my life I've been living like there's no tomorrow free from everything. My fathers always mad at me because of that but he shouldn't push me so much cause he knows I'm doing that because I hate him so much for being a useless husband. Yeah how dare me even if I know deep inside of my father's conscience he is still blaming himself for not being there when my mother needed him most.

But no one can understand my pain. 

In contemplation of things, I didn't notice the girl on the other bench until she cried. She's wearing a yellow off dress. She has long straight hair cascaded along with the wind. I can see her face because she stooped in front of the ground. I only take a little glimpse of her. But still beautiful I think from my distance. That's all I can say cause I can't see her whole face. 

I instantly remember Candice. She was also crying the first time I saw her. and come to think of it she's wearing a yellow dress as well that day. Coincident right? 

I smile at the thought he remembers how she smiled and said goodbye when we found her family that day and ever since we never met again. That girl makes me calm every time I remember her. Isn't odd how can she do that to me 

"Please help me overcome this problem, pretty babe."

While saying that he was looking above the clear blue sky. 

His auntie's called him from a distance. He stood up instantly and walked toward her. Maybe she wants some help with something about my father. 

A week later

As he manages to surpass the funeral of his father it's been a week now. He still can't believe it but moving on is the only thing he can do for now. 

"what! Are you sure the attorney my father can't do that to me! 

That's not impossible!" 

He frustratingly shouting in front of their attorney as he read for a hundred times the last well testament of his fucking good father. 

Yeah, too good to do that thing to me. His head is still in a messy state after a week of blaming, culpability himself. And now here's another problem. That his father created and I instantly want to pull out him from his casket 

"Sir this testament was made by your father three years ago and it's clear as water what he wanted. He wants you to marry Mr. Yantisco's daughter before you get thirty. He is your father's business partner sir. If you don't know. Sir according to the contract that your father made just to force Mr. Yantisco to sign the contract immediately is he will give half of the company if you and his daughter got married." 

he's beyond shocked. 

" What the hell is that old man thinking? Is he insane or what! and why does he wouldn't tell me about it."

"Actually sir your father made a schedule for you already to meet the girl but things happened to him and you already know what it is. Mr. Henderson your father said that if you disagree with the marriage you will never get your inheritance and Mr. Yantisco he can't get anything too if he refuses to their deal."

he sighs in disbelief 

"you gotta be kidding me right you got to be."

"What if one of us disagree in this shit what will happen to the company and all of my inheritance as well" 

"Everything would go to the different foundations and orphanages all over the world sir." 

"tsk.. not so bad after all it's not mine to keep. he said mockingly."

"Are you saying sir it is ok to you that you can't get anything?"

What else can I do? I only have a couple of months left before my 30th birthday.

"But sir don't give up easily. I know you're going to like Mr. Yantisco's daughter. She's adorable and too kind."

"funny huh you already meet my fiance but me the fiance itself never saw her" 

this is absurd. I've been living for almost thirty years and I never met love. How could it be different now? 

just a week since his father passed away, a week without him but still he can give me a headache. a week without him but still you can make me feel how useless I am. 

shit! Am I this shit father? that you prefer to give your money to someone rather than at me. You're so unfair! 

am I this fuck up!
