Chapter Eight

.................

"My name is Jackson Aron. The first born child and the only child, I never had my little sister but she died of cancer when she was still very young.

"wait a minute, the same rich man who owns the Aron Foundation to help orphans and the elderly and last month was named among the richest people, is this your father?“

"yes old man"

"I didn't expect him to have a good child like you, I believe that you coming here will have something fundamental", interrupted Jack "he is the one who brought us here and he paid for everything"

the old man couldn't believe that he was helped by the son of a very rich man. he wanted to get up and thank the young man for his unique heart but his condition was bad, Jackson had to catch him on the bed and sit next to him. The old man stroked Jackson's cheeks while holding a drip tube in his hands and called his boy with a sign, and then he moved.

"I know my son will be alone in this world. I don't have any siblings because I was a street kid growing up and I wasn't lucky enough to know anyone like a brother to me. my siblings were my beloved wife whom I lost five years ago and now remain my son who is everything to me. I want to get up and help him live happily even if we don't have money by just seeing me, his father feels he has someone to call family and give him a reason to fight, but unfortunately, I don't think I have much time to continue seeing the light. I see my wife calling me, and she says she is tired of being alone, I love that woman very much, she is the only one who accepted me and kept me in her heart. She hid the great shame of poverty that I had on my shoulders and made me a very good father to my family, so the time has come when she calls me, and I have to go to her. let me rest from the sufferings of the world that have been very difficult until you have something to give to these creatures of GOD, even though they still won't be satisfied until you die. My young man, I thank you very much for your unique heart, you have left your work and come to help the father of this young man regardless of the class that exists between our lives and yours. GOD will reward you for your goodness. I have one request for you and my last request here on earth while I am still a living being, this son of mine has no brother or friend, I was everything to him, I am asking you my son even though I don't know you, to be his brother of choice and teach him life. I will not rest in peace and I am afraid my son would get into dangerous activities here in the city to earn money, I am afraid that my son will abuse someone or sacrifice someone's life to get income. That is my only request, I am asking you not to reject my son.".

Those were painful words of the old man which brought tears to everyone in the sick ward, even the doctors and nurses who were on the side couldn't bear it and found themselves shedding tears.

"I have accepted my old man from today Jack is my brother and it will be like that all the days of my life. Jackson said while wiping his tears with his hand. The old man smiled and then took Jackson and Jack's hand, he said 

"my son I leave you in safe hands. Your mother will be very happy", he looked like he wanted to add something, but he was slowly closing his mouth and his hands started to relax and finally this old man slept eternally.

 Jack cried loudly and very painfully, something that led Jackson and the doctors to feel very sorry for him. The doctor went to the bed and closed the old man's eyes and then covered him with a white sheet and the body was taken out of the ward ready for burial.

Funeral rites were held and everything was managed by Jackson. he did not want to leave his new voluntary brother alone, and after a week everything was over. Jackson decided to take Jack to their home where he, his parents and four workers were living.

He sat with his parents and explained to them at length about Jack, they felt very sorry for him and encouraged him that they are now his family. "Thank you very much my elders for this great help to make me your servant, you don't even know me. GOD will repay you for your kindness" said Jack very emotionally and they asked him not to worry.

As the days went by, Jackson started teaching Jack business. After two years he opened a large shipping company for him inside and outside the country.

"Brother, thanks a lot to you and your parents. I didn't expect that one day I would own a company and be called the boss. indeed GOD is a miracle worker." these were Jack's words and Jackson smiled.

"Now what do you call the company?" was Jackson's question

"I really wanted to use my name but I think it would be very bad for my business due to the life I lived with that name, but there is one name that I always liked. I watched a detective movie in which there was a rich man who called himself Fabian Decco or Mr Decco, that guy has a lot of money and I really wanted to be like him one day, so I think that name will be a very useful in business.". Jack replied with a slightly longer explanation

"If that's what you like, then there's no problem, we're going to register that name," Jackson added

******************************

There was nothing more than completing all the documents and patents and finally, he was handed over his company by his brother who has a very special heart and he officially became the legal owner of DECCO LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORT COMPANY.

Finally, the days went by and the years passed while they were living happily and flourishing among this family while Mr. Decco continued to promote his name in the country and abroad.

After five years passed, something very bad happened to this family, it was after the car that Jackson's parents were travelling in turned over badly and no one survived the accident. It was an event that affected Jackson a lot because he spent the whole year without doing anything, tormented by the thought of losing his beloved parents. The whole time his brother was Jack or Mr Decco as many people know him along with his fellow businessmen. He was the only person who had Jackson around as his comforter and helped him manage some of his projects. After a year had passed since his parents died, Jackson decided to release the workers from work by giving them capital to start their lives. he wanted to forget everything, that's why he decided to release those workers because whenever he saw them in the house, he remembered his parents.
