Bernard woke to realize that he was on top of the tallest building in Poshia and judging by how small the town appeared at a gaze,he could feel that something wasn't right. He tried to look behind and see whether he would come of heed but didn't manage.
Then afterwards he felt a tall shadow in front of him and from the look of things it resembled a familiar face.
George the fith,the person whose nose pooped up like two large tunnel and ears connerd to anger and his face would always depict that he was always for a serious business. Apparently George never had any piece of hair left on his bald head since he knew that that was the exact way he would save himself so much from the barber, to him, 'money made the world go round.'
Bernard would sense that all was not well and this filthy world we're living had taught him that sometimes giving up is always a sigh of strength, however after thinking it keenly he was inspired by his unborn child and the one who carried it.
"Father, please don't do this to me. It isn't my fault that I have nothing to give your daughter the life that you'd want for her. But at least she's happy and believes that one day our grass will turn out green, please father!!" He begged him.
George wasn't listening to any of it since he already saw him as a loser and nothing was ever going to change that,he barely could afford his mercy.
He was just a second away from telling him about the unborn child when Brando,a name not worth being mentioned came into the picture.
"Enough of all this, just like you refused my piece of appreciation. You are going to die poor!!" He said.
Without wasting any time,the animal went and pushed him from the topmost cornerstone and watched from a far as he dropped.
"This is exactly how I saw it coming. Hell better be ready for some perverted visitation,the people there are gonna be so scared of fellow!!"
He said and you could not imagine the smile on his face when he saw him landing on the solid ground.
He had now made a confirmation that this was the start of a new life with the person he loved. Across his mind,came the biggest wedding plan of the decade,ooh my!! The residents at Poshia were going to call him by his name.
"Take the car and the money is right at the left seat like we talked. I've added five hundred thousand more for the fuel." Brando told George as he walked out of the scene,
Just before he vanished,he had one more thing he'd forgotten.
"This never happened!!!" He wanted it to be so clear with George,the real dad of the woman she loved,to keep it as secret between them that they had done away with Selva's only happiness.
George would then drive of with the tangible amount of joy on his face,he was more than proud that he had finally become a millionaire. Much thanks to his newly found son in law that their lives were changed.
"This is the beginning of change,a change worth experimenting. From grass here grace comes!!" The man was so proud of himself.
On his way back,he deposited half the cash in his bank account and the remaining half was well kept and this was planned to distribute equally to the rest of the family members.
The home was so large and being and extended family you would never imagined that Brando had payed him well to change all their lives and start a 'good' life. The mission was finally accomplished.
People could not stop to compliment on his new 'toy' or car as some would mention it depending on the class. Afterwards he spotted an open club in the outskirts of Poshia where he would grab a bottle of whiskey.
"Come on man,one for the road isn't enough. Gotta take another one for the car!!" The bar attendant added.
George had become so drunk that he would not walk by feet in as much as he wanted to, therefore crawling was his thing even after he tipped the attendant the exact amount for the drink. His level of Keenes with money was forever unmatched even when drunk and wealthy.
Going back to the car,he noticed all the amount had vanished and this had just made him sober again.
"You think I would let you run your business alone with all that money? Come on Honey,we have to go now." Maria,her elegant wife said.
"For how long have you been following me Maria?" He was so curious.
"From the very moment you stepped out of the house,I know everything that has happened George. The money that you have deposited at the bank,we are going to share it equally lest you don't want me to inform Selva that his own father would trade her husband just because of his greed!!" She threatened him so bravely that made George almost jump out of his skin,at times she made her think whether he had really married a woman!!
They would gladly go home that evening after Maria removed the other half from her hiding place and you would never want to imagine how the family had waited for their arrival.
...Three days later...
(Brando's Appointment)
Life was no longer worth a living for the hopeless girl, Selva had been in her isolated room all by herself and for a reason she could feel her heart bleeding out of despair symbolizing that Bernard was not okay. She would tell without a doubt that just like the eyes,the heart didn't lie and in an event where mind isn't at peace, conscious is shaken.
"Where is Bernard!!! I need to see Bernard!!!!" She was more than furious as her anger would make the calm glasses break in silence.
It appeared as if the whole environment was provoked by the dividing nature.
"What happened to him Brando, you have to let me know!?" She demanded a lot of answers as the brave Brando who had now been turned into a puppet went hiding on the room's corner in sear
ch of the best answer he could give.
