" No no no please don't leave me, ho-w are we sup-posed to lea-ve with-without you" said Joanne in a breaking voice looking at her father's lifeless body.
Having had her father as an only parent due to the passing of her mother at a young age, Joanne was now shattered as the only
Parent she and her brother had just left them in this cruel world alone with no relatives whatsoever.
"Sister Anne when is daddy coming home?.. I want to show him the new skills I learned at soccer practice" Bruce asked her big sister just as she came to pick him at school.
Joanne had classy eyes looking at her baby brother...
"how am I supposed to break his little heart like this? Ohh God why did you forsake me?" Joanne thought.
"Baby there is something I'd like to tell you"
"okay" Bruce looked at his sister "what's wrong Anne?"
"Remember what we said about mommy years ago?"
"yes daddy said mommy went to heaven and she is now an angel and she is always watching over us" Bruce said with a hint of sadness.
"Good, so baby what I want to tell you is that daddy also went to heaven and she is with mommy and they will be watching over us as our guardian angels" with tears streaming down her cheeks Joanne was able to say all of this with her heart breaking into a thousand pieces.
"So daddy left us all a-lone an-d he-he is not co-m-ing ho-me to s-e-e us any-more, he-he wi-l-l not c-o-m-e wat-ch me p-lay at s-chool?" little Bruce said and broke into a loub sob.
Joanne pulled her brother to her embrace while tears of her own rolled down her cheeks to see her brother in so much pain.
On the other side of town business man, young billionaire Owen Serome was looking outside his office window in deep thought when his father Sir Michael Serome came through the door without knocking causing Owen to turn.
"Father this is a wonderful surprise" he said startled because it was quite rare for his father to come to see him at the office.
" Hello Son there is nothing surprising about me being here..." he said taking a seat.
" o-Kay. What seems to be the matter? I have been staying out of trouble,I have not made the papers for any unruly behavior, business is doing well, so how may I be of help? " Owen said looking at his father intently.
" Son you are almost 30, me and your mother are getting old, when are we getting a daughter-in-law? or better yet when are we getting grandchildren? " Owen looked at his father speechless.
" Um-Um Father what's the rush?"
" There is no rush my boy we are just worried about you, since Tasha you haven't introduced anyone to us... "
Owen looked sour at the me sion of Tasha the girl who broke his heart and left him broke. He had to mend the pieces of his broken heart and started from scratch to get to where he was and devoted all his energy and life into making his life a success, after Tasha he swore to never let any woman into his life let alone love any and he has been doing a very good job at that, having casual one-night-stands cause obviously he is a man after all.
" Father please let's not talk about Tasha. I will get married when the time is right."
His father heaved a huge sigh "Okay son. Your mother has invited you to dinner tonight 7 pm sharp, don't be late you know your mother. I'll take my leave now, have a great day" his father stood up from the chair.
" I will be there, greet mother for me."
He bid his father goodbye.
"I have always wanted to have a child but no one has ever been worthy of being able to carry my seed." he thought to himself.
" And what is it that got you so deep in thought that you look so lost?" said a deep crusty voice which Owen knew belonged to his best friend since childhood Steven Jackson whom he took more of a brother. Steven has always been there for him even when he went through depression after Tasha did a number on him he was always there making sure that he got better.
" Don't you know how to knock?" he asked looking at him. Steven smirked looking at his friend being all serious.
" oh please I'm in my brother's office, I don't need to knock. So what's up?"
" I want a child!" he said after being silent for a minute. " But I don't know how I will find the one who is right to carry my seed"
Seeing his friend's serious face Steven knew he had been thinking about it for a while now he is ready to get through with it.
"of course it will work I'm a genius after all." Steven said smirking at his friend. Owen let out a laugh looking at his friend.
"Leave my office you moron" se said throwing a pen at Steve who hurriedly left the office laughing.
" Well you are the hottest young billionaire around here so every girl will want to be your baby mama, how about we get to conduct an advert so we can interview in that sense you can get to chose the one you believe is the best to carry your seed."
Owen kept quiet for some time before saying" well that could work " with a bright smile on his face which was rare as he hardly let out any to the outside world. People often thought that he couldn't smile as he always had a blank expression.
