"If you don't mind, may I give a suggestion??" Matthew asked.
"Just now any suggestion will work for me," Mangesh said.
"We need to borrow some money from any company," Matthew answered.
"But which??"
"Ryan's company. There company only has so much money,"
"Never ever," he said this and started to go in the room.
"Go to your room but remember that we are helpless," Matthew shouted.
He heard it and went inside his room, a bit depressed.
After sometime, Matthew all heard many utensils falling in his room.
He and his mother rushed to his room.
And fortunately, the door was not shut.
He opened the door, and saw him lying on the floor.
He got a heartattack.
Matthew immediately contacted the hospital and as soon as the ambulance came, he helped them shifting him to the hospital.
He called me and told me everything.
I too became tensed and rushed to the hospital with my father.
He was in ICU.
Then, the doctor cane and declared,"He has got a heartattack. He doesn't have much more time. Anytime, he can take his last breathe,"
Thise words pierced my heart and I fell on the ground.
Matthew shouted at him," Please check him once again. Something you will be able to do. After all you are a doctor,"
"Yes, I am a doctor, not god," he answered.
"And yes. One more thing. He was calling his son and Ryan inside," he added on, and went away.
We went inside and burst into tears.
Matthew just held his hand and cried and cried.
His tears made me also cry.
" Beta, Stop crying and listen to me," he said.
"Your father might have told you the reason of our arguement," He said to me.
I nodded my head.
"But, that wasn't a misunderstanding in my mind that my father was killed by him I did this intentionally," he said.
I was horrified.
"Yes. You heard correctly. I did this because of my greediness.
I killed my father, not Manith.
Then, after that your father was informed of all this.
And very cleverly, I accused him of his murder,"
"But, why did you do this, uncle," I asked him.
"See, what has happened, now. Whose father's life was destroyed by me, today he is only crying for me as I am about to die soon," he said.
"No, father. I will do something. You won't die." Matthew said.
He softly answered," No, beta. I think so this is the only punishment for all my sins,"
"I accused your father of murder because I wanted the whole property of my father.
I didn't want to share it with anyone.But when, your father also established his own company, my greediness grew.
I was jealous of him as his company started to have higher status and profile than mine, I started doing all my efforts to pull him down.
I didn't leave any way. I insulted him, wherever I could.
But it didn't happen.
Therefore, I made a plan to kill him even but the servants whom I hired to do this betrayed me,"
"Stop now!!" Matthew shouted. "You are telling lies, I know.
If you don't want me to do the tie-up, I won't,""Wait!! Promise me that tie-up will be there. "
Matthew gave the promise.
"I know I am soon going to take my last breath, before that just let me know that will you blame each other for my death??"
We both replied no.
"My greediness resulted to this situation. Will you ever be greedy??"
We both said no.
"But...," Matthew was about to say something but was interrupted.
"No if and but. Just follow what I said. And the last thing which I want to say. Ryan, request your father to forgive me, if possible,"
He said this and took his last breathe.
A painful moment...
An memorable moment...
A lesson giving moment...But, we followed everything he said in his last minute.
Though Matthew took time to adjust, but after all he tried to overcome that.
The tie-up was successful.
Everyone was happy but I was missing uncle's presence.
May he would have been there!!I don't know that I should consider Manith as the villain or the victim, all I knew that it was "THE UNEXPECTED END".
(Present time)
"I really never cry, but your story made me too emotional," Radhana said.
I noticed tears in Matthew's and Ryan's eyes.
Our holidays were also over, we also returned to our work and got indulged in it.
But in free time, whenever I think of the story, I become emotional, thinking if it would have had happened in my life, I wouldn't be able to bear it.
One thing was only good about the story which I liked that was the inseparable bond between Ryan and Matthew.
May this bond live forever!!
*THE END*
