"Lets go son. You're going to love it here," My dad says as we get off the plane. I sigh and nod. "Is something wrong?" He asks. I shrug.

"Well I don't know, I just... I'm twenty five, and I'm traveling around the world with my dad. I want to stop and live in a place, have a family, go to school, get a degree in law-" I start but I was rudely interrupted.

"Connor, enough with this nonsense,"

"But dad-"

"Connor listen to me-"

"No. You listen to me. I am tired of you thinking you know what's best for me, but you don't..." I say.

"That's enough! You will not disrespect me!" He says, raising his voice. I gulp, I knew there was going to be consequences when I said that.

"Mr. Walsh? Your limo is ready," My dad's assistant says.

"Thank you Rick," He says looking over to his assistant. "Now Connor, this is not the time, or the place-" He says whispering to me.

"Then what is?" I ask not matching is tone or volume.

"You are acting like a child! You are a grown man! Not a boy! Now we will talk about this later, now get in the limo, we are going to be late," He says sternly. I scoff, roll my eyes, and walk to the limo not caring if he is behind me or not. I get in the limo, slamming the door behind me.

As soon as we get to the hotel, I need a distraction.

"Thank all your coming out today. This has been my fathers dream, I just made it come true. It started in December last year, and since then it just kept growing. I am happy to say that our eighty- seventh hotel is in Tokyo, Japan! Walsh Prime towers couldn't have done it with out all of you. Thank you for helping us on our journey," My father says as he stands in front of our new building. Everyone starts clapping, and reporters start asking questions.

"Hi! Michele Payne, New News. Everyone has been wondering how you fly around the world, and keep up with your family, how do you do it?" The reporter asks.

"Well, that's a good question, I actually have my oldest son, Connor, on this journey with me, how about we get him to answer," My dad says. He turns to the side to face me and motions for me to come up on the big platform with him, so I do as I'm told.

"Hi, Michele, my dad is one of the busiest men in the world. He keeps up with my mother, my sister Sage, and I by knowing that we will be ok when he is gone. He makes sure that not one day goes by where he doesn't speak to all of us. We all want this for him, we all love what he is doing, so with our tolerance for the company, he can undertake all of our dreams," I say giving her a friendly smile. She nods.

"Good evening, Rick Hart, Hot Gossip, Connor, how do you feel to have to stop your life to travel with your father?" The other report asks. My father looks at me but keeps a smile on his face.

"Well I wouldn't say I'm stopping my life. More like, putting it on hold. I fell in love with traveling when I was five until I was about eighteen, not that I don't like it now, it's just, high school stopped then, and now there is college and I want a good education," I say.

"And do you feel obligated to stay with your father or do what he says?" The reporter asks.

"He is my father, so I do own him respect. Does that mean that I do whatever he says without telling him if I like the idea or not? Of course not. We have a healthy relationship. And I am very happy to say that in a few weeks I will be attending Stanford Law school," I say as the crowd starts clapping. I love traveling, but sometimes I need a break.
