got a degree. The criminal acts have stopped from long time ago, I swear” “I’ll give you only one chance to prove yourself” “thanks you Mr.….” “Call me Sir Jeffrey”. Stan’s heart was filled with glee, and now he has a job he can afford to rent a house, and get some cash to buy food and anything he wants. A Step Closer

After two weeks, Jeffrey knew that Stan is serious about the job and he is a hard worker, and as he know that Stan was homeless, he decide to make a big surprise for him. “Come son,” said Jeffrey, “I saw your hard work in this company but I don’t want you to be here. I want you to be my lead accountant and I want you to live in my villa. Your room is ready and I will give you a bigger salary, moreover you have your own office. So what do you think?” Stan accepted Jeffrey’s offer. He got himself ready and went to the villa. He was astonished about how the house was big. The air was fresh, the hall was big. In the middle a large ladder leads to the main rooms. All around him sculptures, artwork and anything creative would look, also bookshelves with thousands of books to read of. He also felt like he was in public street; Maids and chefs and butlers moves from room to room, doing their jobs like working bees. Then he went to his office to do some work. He kept doing his great job and lived happily, but there is something he was worried about. It been four years since the prison of Andrew, and there is only two years and he got out of jail. Stan knows he told Andrew he would get him out of jail soon, but he didn’t so Stan think that Andrew is going to find him then kill him because he is the master of the killing art.

Days passed and one day the maid was feeling tired and she’s was going to throw up, so she asked Stan to put these clothes in Jeffrey’s Closet. When Stan got inside the room and put the clothes into their place, he saw on the dresser table a photo of Jeffrey, his wife, and a baby. He was mediating it for two minutes and then Jeffrey came. Jeffery said, “Like this family photo?” Stan then replied, “Who’s the baby in the picture?” “That? He is our lost son from fourteen years ago.” “What happened to him?” “We were at home and then a bunch of buglers came and hit me and my wife on our heads so we fainted. After some time we woke up in the hospital, and then I started to ask where is our baby, but the ugly truth that he was kidnapped or like sort of that” Stan was more astonished now, he was standing like a sculpture, frozen and cold. His tongue was tied and he was unable to speak or express himself, until he finally asked, “Sir is your last name is Duncan?” “Oh my…. How did you know that?” astonished Jeffery. “Well I’m then your son. My name is Stan Duncan and I’m an orphan who lost his parents from fourteen years ago.” Jeffrey hugged Stan so warm and tight, but maybe there are chances that Stan isn’t his son, he maybe another orphan with the same last name.

Hope for Hopeless

They both decide to make a DNA test to find if Jeffrey is the biological father of Stan. After a week, the result has come and it was positive. Jeffrey is the real father of Stan. Happiness and glee filled the air, and then Jeffrey decides to make a party for the return of his lost son. Stan felt that something is missing, he got some of the love but he still need another love; the true friendship love. Stan asked his father if he can asks a hobo he knows to get in the party and maybe he could also find him a job and shelter, because without the hobo’s advice to find his parents, he wouldn’t see the math club which led him to here. He went to the dumpster waiting for the hobo. He got desperate but then he found the hobo. “Hi! Long time not seeing you my friend” said Stan to the hobo. The hobo smiled and felt happy, “Me too, so what happened with you and your real parents?” “I found them, and I’m very grateful for your advice, without you I couldn’t found them. So for that I invite you to the party of my return and I got you a job and a room in our villa to sleep in.” “Stan, I’m eighty four years old and you don’t know at what time I could die, so don’t bother yourself to help me and then I don’t have any degree to get a nice job as you said. I’m only good at fixing furniture and make ones.” “No problem! My dad is rich and he have large companies for varies works. Please go with me.” “Ok, but shouldn’t I take a bath and dress well then?” Stan gave the hobo a makeover and teeth whitening and bought him lot of fancy clothes.

It was party time and thus the hobo got nervous. He had never had a social life and he never communicated to people only to beg. He dressed well, brushed his teeth, and practiced speech in front the mirror. “John! The guest are waiting, please get out so we can start the party” said Stan. John, the ex-hobo, got ready and went down; he met different people at that party and met Stan’s parents. John was expecting a tragedy but for his luck everything went smooth, and everyone liked him. There are still six hours to the party to finish, which made John very nervous since he’s not that charismatic and this was the first time he went to a real party. The only party he had was trash bin party, were for him the trash bin is Treasure and the leftovers in it is gold priceless jewelry.

The Big Crash

All went okay for the past four hours. There are still exhausting but fun two hours. As everything was being smooth and delightful, Andrew came, holding his masterpiece; two fast killing guns. Stan was surprised, “Andrew! How did you….?” “Get out of jail earlier?” said Andrew interrupting Stan “There are still two years to get out of jail but with my skills of making people puzzled, the judge finally believed that I’m innocent and thought that your ex-gang done that. Because of being exposed when the cops and the judge find the gang and know the truth, the first day I got out of jail, I sneaked to my second house which obviously they took it, and I killed everyone of them, five shots each. Now, I’m coming for revenge. To revenge from you Stan! I got a machine gun with me, loaded with two thousand bullets and I’m not afraid to use it” “What do you want Andrew to stop your madness?” “Well, let’s make a deal. Tell your father to make me the owner of his companies and fortunes, then I, in return, will not going to kill you, your parents, or anyone in this party.” Stan is furious from Andrew’s devilish deal, and he was thoughtless about what to do next. “Sorry son, I’m not keeping my fortune to see you die after I recently found you” Said Jeffrey. “No! Don’t you ever do that” replied Stan, “You know why? That’s because John had already called the cops when all of that have happened” “What? I don’t understand” “I’ll tell you when they catch Andrew and the party is over.” So did the cops and took Andrew where he belongs; the jail.

The party had ended, filled with joy, fear, and a little bit of drama and action. Jeffrey was still curious about how all of that happened, so he sat down with his son to tell him the whole story. Stan giggled, remembering his smart plan, “It all started before the party. I know that Andrew doesn’t like to kill only one, he likes group kill, so the party looks perfect to threaten me and kill everyone around me so I get weak and give up. So I gave John a phone and asked him to put it in his pocket. I then, had already called the cop and asked them hide around the villa and they all just needed is one phone call to get in the house. John was at the camera room, waiting for Andrew or any one look suspicious to him. Andrew is not a fool, he knows that we have cameras so he broke them, but I was smarter than him and I bought tiny camera in the door knob, which show’s who’s in the front door. When John saw that someone broke the main camera, he ASAP called the cops, which eventually caught Andrew, leaving us safe and sound in the house without getting anyone in the villa hurt.”

Jeffrey was proud of his son, because he is a thinking mind, not a slacker or a coach potato. That’s showed Jeffrey that his son is a true man, who protects his family members and anyone who’s in need for his help. Then Jeffrey got tired so is John, so everyone went to his room to take a deep relaxing sleep.

Goodbye to Stan’s hope

Days went normally and the 18 years old teenagers became 25 years old adult. He’s working and managing the companies of his dad. John is working in Jeffrey’s company in fixing and
