IT WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN

Chapter 3

Who’s Timmy

“He was a guy that was living with his grandmother. And he was the guy that was aggressive about what he was doing, and he’s a guy that was passionate about what he was doing, but the thing that was making him driven is the fact that he does not know the history of his parents or why he’s not in connection or in communication with his parents

“So, the core of his arrogance lies in the control his grandmother has over his entire life. She dictates his career, influences his love life, and is generally quite manipulative. Especially when she’s trying to mold him into the version of his father that she always envisioned but never got. The mystery of what truly happened to his father is only known to the grandmother—although there’s one hint she keeps emphasizing: Tommy’s father was supposed to study financial management, but he chose to study art instead.

When it was finally time to graduate, his grandmother found out he never followed her wishes. That led to a huge rift, and it became his cue to run away. By the time his mother discovered he was gone, he had already married, had a child, and left to live life on his own terms.

Of course, his grandmother disapproved of the entire situation. She’d already planned a different match for him, but he chose his own path. Eventually, things became difficult when Tommy’s mother fell ill and Tommy’s father had to swallow his pride and turn to his mother for help.”

after Timmy’s father swallowed his pride and asked for help, it seems he was given a tough ultimatum—he had to choose between his wife and his child. There was some tension with the grandmother over what should happen next, and she was the only one who knew where his father went. It’s definitely a complicated family situation!

. The grandmother kept comparing Timmy to his father, saying “like father, like son.” And when it comes to the friends

It seems that Timmy’s grandmother often points out that he’s following in his father’s footsteps, especially when it comes to choosing the wrong friends. Timmy’s circle of friends—formed during his varsity days—includes a mix of personalities that might not be the best influences. Despite the grandmother’s concerns and her comparisons between father and son, she keeps her comments brief and is still figuring out how to handle the whole situation.
