Chapter five

 His father held on tightly to him, hugging him tightly around his neck.

"But how were you able to find me?" He could not help it but Inquired.

At the sound of the words, a slight sign escaped from the mouth of his father.

A sight that proceeded a lot of suspense making the beating of his heart go much faster.

"I think you should sit now." His father gestured to the sofa that was lying just ahead of him.

He walked gradually towards it and he sat.

"I'm not going to lie to you. I have always known that you are alive." He finally said.

The words almost made his eyes bulge out from his eye sockets.

Multiple thoughts ran through his mind. Thoughts of having a father that was at least comfortable but he had to beg on the street to leave.

"But why would you do such a thing? Did you hate me that much?" He inquired with tears in his eyes as he finally pulled away from his father.

"What could make you watch me leave in so much agony." He yelled.

His father attempted to speak but Mr. Gerald Young's voice was totally broken.

"I have always regretted the day that I found you but could not reach out to you son. It's enough that you hate me, it was for you all good." He said.

But even with his words, he was still finding it really difficult to believe that anything that happened back there was for his own good.

"No father. It was not. You only abandoned me. You abandoned me to die." He yelled at the top of his voice, not able to restrain the tears that came from his eyes.

And finally he asked.

"But why did you come back for me? Have I suddenly become useful to you?" He kept on spewing from his mouth.

He would no longer listen to what anyone had to say as he turned around to leave.

"I already started living in the mud. It's really of no use. I will continue to survive. Just as I have always done." He replied instantly, turning around to leave.

With every step that he took, a part of his heart seemed to be torn into multiple shreds.

"If I had taken you when I first discovered you. You would have been dead." His Father finally said the words that made him pause.

He turned around slowly, staring right into his eyes as he finally inquired.

"What do you mean by" I would have been dead?" He inquired further, staring right into his eyes as his father went ahead to explain.

"When I first had that accident. I thought that it was some minor incident. I started searching for you immediately and eventually, I found you."

"But that same day, I discovered that someone was trailing me all those while. The whole building that I found you and your mother in was blown up. Thankfully, you escaped. 

And I was declared dead."

He could still remember the events that laid the exposure. It had been released that there was no survivor.

"But why would anyone want you dead?" He Inquired further his face clouded with so much suspense as he wanted to know more about what was really going on.

With every word that his father spoke, his heart continued to beat hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through.

"It seems as though some people want my company. I have been doing some research."

"But how powerful is this company that anyone would want you dead?" Gunther inquired further.

"The Young's company. Known as the largest consortium in the city." He finally revealed.

The words were like stabs squeezing through his direction. He had heard about the consortium but to think that it had anything to do with his father.

The thoughts were unimaginable in his head. As he turned around, throwing them away from his head.

"Is there any other Young that I know absolutely nothing about?" He inquired further.

"But how is that person? I thought that it was owned by a mysterious man?"he inquired.

His father nodded his head and Finally said.

"Yes. I made two companies. The other bearing your name but it somehow licked. But I have been able to protect the information Afterward.

Gunther shook his head, still finding it really difficult to believe, then his father finally said.

"If you are still finding it difficult to believe. Go online and search for the owner." He finally said.

Taking his cracked cell phone from his pocket, he searched out the name of the mysterious owner and the result that popped up snapped him out of his breath.

"What's the name written there?" His father inquired further but he could hardly spit out a single word from his mouth this time, transfixed in his stare.

Finally, he recovered from his shock, enough for him to make out words from his mouth.

"Gunther Young." He finally said.

To prove his point, his father walked away towards the center drawer and brought out a few documents from his drawer.

Walking over to Gunther, he tapped him by his shoulders, snapping him swiftly off from his thoughts. 

"What are these?" He was still staring at the documents that were lying right before him.

"You should see for yourself." He finally said.

He took it from his hands, staring right into the documents. He read through every single detail of it and at the end, his eyes Brightened.

"Yes. You just have to sign these documents and the companies will automatically belong to you."

It seemed way too good to be true. More like a passing dream to him. He was just on the street yesterday, abandoned by his girlfriend and now he was about to own a super Consortium.

He pitched him self hard but he was still there.

"It isn't a dream son. This is reality." His father finally said.
