Being a widow was tough who had spend last ten years of her life build her house and life with her husband and son. Suddenly, the person who promised to be with her till the last breath left her alone. Terrified she went for her in laws and her family to help her in time of struggle but no one step forward. Every friend and relative turn their back to her. It just her and her nine year old son against the harsh world.
Her life as a single parent with a nine year old with no financial support from family was even more tough but she held it all. Facing every problem head on for the sake of her son who need her but focusing so much in providing for her son's needs. She had forgotten to take care of her own health.
Last stage blood cancer had dug claws so deep inside her that her lost her life.
Her son was heartbroken.
Within a year, lost both of his parents.
No one came forward from family neither from his father's side nor mother's side.
Too heart broken from loosing both of his parents, the nine year old build a steel tower around his heart.
Instead of giving lost child love and care, the judge thrown him in the orphanage. No one was there to give him a hug and told him that its okay to cry and we are here for you. With no friends and no relative to relay on, books had became the best companion to him. The kids in the orphanage show no mercy to the fragile soul. Blows after blows all those years of childhood made the nine year old boy turn into a cold man who build an empire for himself and goes with the name of Gabriel Martin. Within fourteen years from a orphan nine year old boy, he became a world known businessman.
"For last three years this man had owned the title and the award for the successful businessman of the year. This year also he steal the title with his achievements. The best businessman award goes to . . . . once again Mr. Martin."
With a sigh, Gabriel stand up buttoning his suit jacket after gulping down rest of champagne from the glass. His face is set of scowl. Walking up the stage Gabriel grab the golden figure represented as award and turn on his heels straight out of the event to his car that already waiting for his arrival.
" What's point of giving smile and grateful speech when there will be no one of my own family to clap for me."
Shaking his head, Gabriel take keys from the man before driving straight. He hate these type of events but his publicity manager told him that it would be good for their business. Depression hit him as the harsh reality slammed. Gabriel once again reminded by the fact that there is no one from him. No one of his family waiting for him in the house. Aggressively stepping on the gas he changed the gear. The memories of past rushed forward of his father playing football with him, his mother reading bed time story. The bright happy memories turn dark and cold; the time in hospital hold his mother's freezing lifeless hand, the social worker, the judge and the orphanage.
A loud horn jerk Gabriel out of the past into present, the old car crossing the road but his car's speed is too much to stop. In panic, he tried to turn wheel to sway car in other direction but it was too late. His powerful car slammed straight to the old car with full force making it roll over. Gabriel himself feel jerking widely by the crash with small scratches.
The blood dripping from upside down car told that no one survived. Trembling, he step out of his car too shaken up to move, his knees buckled as he leaned back on car for support. Eyes blown wide in shock, broken glass everywhere. He knew what happened and there is nothing he can do now. The baring sirens echoed in the night and within minutes police cars pulled up along with ambulance.
Gabriel inhaled sharply when the paramedic who shake his head after checking inside the vehicle.
Dead.
The couple inside the turned up old ford car are dead because of him. Gabriel was in daze too lost to understand the reality and what happened with past half in hour.
