"Ah! my head! Its hurting" Mr black wakes up in the morning with dizziness and nausea, that was caused due to boozing up a lot of rum last night. He could not recollect what happened last night, as he drank a lot of alcohol which made him forget everything that happened. With his heavy head and uneasiness he calls his Butler on the intercom to get him a black tea. soon he was served black tea which made him feel a little better. As he was sitting and trying to comfort himself on his recliner, his friend Stephen calls up.
" hey black! how are you??? I hope you are fine after last night. I saw you and Christine out of the bar."Mr Black pauses for few seconds to recollect what happened last night. It does not take very long for him to recollect.
"Ah, yes i am fine." Mr Black assures Stephen about his well being. As he hangs up the call, the memory of last night scrolls down in his mind and tears start rolling down his cheeks. He was shattered to know the fact about Christine. He was feeling cheated, fooled and exploited for so many years. His heart was pounding with pain distress and regrets of being a toy for Christine. But there was something worse waiting for him.

       The tears of agony reminds him of her mother. "mother always disliked Christine. she was always against my marriage with Christine. Did she know about her??? If she knew about her, why did she not tell me???" cried out Mr Black. "Letters! mother left few letters for me. may be i may get few answers in that." He quickly hops on the table to get the box of letter.

          LETTER NO:2
 
oh son! it was the time when you were  grown up to be a handsome teenager. I admired your looks and i am pretty sure the other girls in your college admired you too. It made me feel very happy when i saw you. Not only because you were handsome but also because you were turned to be a gentleman which i always wished you to be. The struggle of feeding you keeping you clean and inculcating good habits in you were now turned into looking after your company your friends your first love.... Christine. I knew that you loved Christine. I could see love in your eyes for her. If i am not wrong you loved her since your 14th birthday. You loved her friendly and caring attitude. Even i liked her initially son. She was a nice girl. She was an ambitious girl, who always wanted to grow money too fast. Being ambitious is not a bad thing at all but forgetting the norms of society and crossing the line of decency to achieve your goal is not proper son. Today you were very angry with me because i insulted Christine in front of your eyes and dragged her out of the house. You left the house without asking me once why i did so? She was pregnant son. She was pregnant with someone else's child and she wanted to get married to you only because she could not bear the burden of expenses of that child. She very well knew that you were madly in love with her. And she was using your emotions. It was very hard for me to digest the truth but it was that dark night when i decided not to bother what people say about her and decided to check on her. I was about to knock her door when i heard her voice from her backyard. I followed the voice. I could see Christine with another guy discussing her problem. Listening to their conversation made me understand that she was bearing the child of that man who was supposed to be her boss. He wanted her to abort the baby but Christine blackmailed him for going to the police. She wanted to give birth to the child to get money from that man by proving in the court that he is the child's biological father. I left the place and then i realised that whatever people say about Christine is not wrong. I never told you because I thought you are a grown up and you will understand  her real face. But love blindfolded you son. You were not ready to accept the fact. As i could see, for you now, Christine was a trophy which you wanted to win by hook or by crook. That was not love anymore. When you decided to marry her I tried to convince you several times but you never paid any heed to it. You always had complains that I loved Sam more than you and so I will not understand your feelings. I am your mother son. I come to know things before you say me. Son, Sam was small and week. He was not as smart as you were. I had to pay a little more attention towards him during his toddler years which made you feel I loved him more than I love you. For me you both were my two arms. Your pain was always my pain son. You were smart boy who could do things on his own but Sam was a bit weaker. You wanted the same attention   and to get that you acted as if you were  dumb. I tried to give you more attention. But every time it was less for you. Son it is not easy to manage two kids at the same time. You were 6 yrs when Sam was an infant. It was very difficult for me to build that love and not let jealousy crop in between you two. Praise to the lord, who helped me in doing that. You two are together like best friends. Parenting is a very difficult task to do. Every parent tries to be perfect but lacks perfection. There are always loop holes in every parenting. My loop hole was, i could not teach you to respect and love your mothers efforts. As I thought, that is some thing a child will build up on his own. I never made you realise my problems, my worries. I was always protective towards you two. I have never let any of my emotional burden to fall on you. You never knew what tough time i was going through after your father passed. There were a lot of problems son. My health, my financial condition, my job, there were many issues with me which i never let you know as i did not wanted to distract your focus in life. I never had any complains from you son, as it was my fault, to not let you know how hard your mother works to get your wishes come true. I wish when i give you this letter you understand my situation and forgive me for what i have done to your Christine.

                                 The letter ends leaving Mr Black more ashamed of his acts. His feelings of love for Christine was now changed into hatred. He never liked women's of that kind. Mr Blacks ideal choice was one man women. And that is what he thought about Christine. He loved the image that he saw in Christine but in fact Christine didn't fall into his criteria of choices. Now he looked down upon Christine's behaviour and hated her. He burned each an every memory of Christine that he had kept safely in his box, to which he spoke when ever he missed her. His feelings for her burned along with that fire that was lit in firewood place. He cried profusely for not trusting his mother and punishing her for the crime she never made. He cried as he missed those wonderful years which he could have spent with his mother. He cried for wasting his life for a women who did not deserved that position in his life. " I wish I had a time machine mom and I could rewind my life back to my childhood. I wish I live with you as your good baby mom and give you love, respect, and care that you deserved. I ruined my life for such a  stingy personality." Mr Black regrets about the mistakes he made in his past.
