Chapter 01 - Helpless

I don't know if James' family is called family.

Dr. Eriez and I were friends with James when we were in College even though our Departments were different. I was in the College of Law, while James was in Bussiness administration and Eriez was in Medicine.

Of the three of us only James had a wife. He is also the busiest of us.

We are happy to know that Mitchelle has given birth to a healthy baby boy but we are saddened that Mitchelle passed away a few minutes after Zhio gave birth.

James is left with the responsibility of being Zhio's mother and father ... And the company that Mitchelle runs, Cryzastic Corporation ... so James' burden becomes even heavier.

It was a waste of time for Zhio, who when Eriez got sick himself took care of, because for us children we also consider Zhio. ..And no matter what else happens we remain supportive of the father and son.

Until one day, we heard that James was ill.

By the mercy of God ... he stayed in the hospital to recover.

And in those three days we promised him that the two of us would take care of the company first.

After three days, James came back..and thanked us for what we had done.

But, before the day was over, James was rushed to the hospital and was said to have fainted in the middle of the meeting.

Sadly ... we didn't expect James not to wake up after the Doctor declared him comatose.

Zhio was seventeen years old then. We don't have a position to manage the responsibilities left by James in the company ... but Zhio has to take part.

News spread about Zhio's first public appearance

Dr. and I. Eriez was just beside him to guide him.

Zhio turned his back on his Youth, to fulfill his promise to his father. He faced all the problems that came with the company while James was still unconscious. It was there that I proved that James was good at raising Zhio. Intelligent and Strategic management.

The only thing that changed the company was Zhio's dismissal of the attractive female employees.

Because Zhio runs two different companies, Zhio has been strict, rude and serious at work. It seems to have neglected oneself and kept up with the flow of business. Result for the company to grow rapidly.

Five years later, the company has grown exponentially.

And during those years, I gradually lost hope that James would still wake up. Because we all know that only a machine gives life to James' body, which is so thin that it seems like it has long since passed away.

Now, Dr. Eriez holds the document saying that if James hasn't woken up in a month ... we will say goodbye to him. As a close friend and family member of James ... Me, Eriez and more of all Zhio will sign that document. Eriez and I have already signed ...

When we put the document on Zhio's table ...

he looked at us.

"Don't worry Zhio, your father has another month. During that month we'll find out if we still need to continue resurrecting him."

All Zhio did was throw it away.

"No one will interfere about my father."

If I were Zhio, I wouldn't be able to sign that document right away.

But no matter what Zhio avoids, he will not be able to abdicate his duty to his father.

One day I myself took Zhio to the hospital where his father's body was.

"Five years without a sign that your father will still wake up, Zhio. Your father is our friend ... and we know how you feel." and Dr.Eriez.

Zhio's eyes just stared at the whole body of his father lying.

"You have also been running the Zhio company for five years. Even though you are not of the right age. We have a lot of trust in you and especially your father that you will not leave the company he left you in-time. Then a few times You have already proved to us that you will not forsake it. And as the sole heir to the entire estate of Zel Cantheliz and your mother's company, all you will have to worry about is their wills to you. you have your father wherever you go. This is what you remember ... only a machine supports your father's body. "

Zhio caressed his face.

It's true that his father has been dead for a long time.

Right today ... he has to make a decision.

The whole room was cold and all eyes were on Zhio.

"Leave me first." he said coldly.

Dr. nodded. Eriez and I went out together ... but before I turned around I saw a child's tears falling for his father ..
