Father’s Lesson

So early in the morning, I could already hear footsteps, their where so many that I thought we where being robbed, in fear I jumped out of my bed about to go and hide then a maid walked and told me that my father wanted to see me so I should take a bath and go to him. I don’t know why I was so scared maybe it’s because I am no longer used to this lifestyle and had spent to much time in the college. But i still believe am going to get used to this lifestyle sooner or later.

In a hurry, I took my bath. I was so excited because I haven’t seen my dad for a long time and I don’t want to keep him waiting. When I finish dresssing up, I could ear someone shouting and even though I recognized the voice I decided to turn a blind eye because I wanted to go see my father as soon as possible and it had nothing to do with me. When I got to my fathers room he was not there so I decided to ask a maid where he went. The maid told me that my father had already gone outside so I went outside. When I got outside I saw my father shouting at someone and I really wanted to see who he was talking to, so I just ran to him and gave him a hug, when I turned to see who he was shouting at. I couldn’t believe it was the driver that brought me home.

I tried to ask my father why he was shouting at the man, and I tried to explain to him that it was not the drivers fault. The reason we came home a day after is because of the heavy rain that fell and I told him that the driver even took good care of me and always asked if I was hungry so he could go and buy some food for me to eat. My father said 'ok' and still said to the driver that he was not done and will still get back to him. He took me back into the house and told me that in the future I don’t have to be soft minded that if any of my workers did not do their job properly, I should talk to them in a strict manner so that they won’t make such mistakes again and will work harder next time. Then he said that I should forget about what just happened because it was not the reason he sent for me. To be honest I still don’t know why he wouldn’t let the driver of the hook because I had already explained it to him that it was not the drivers fault.

Not long after that my mother came out of her room, I could tell through the way she was dressed that we where going somewhere. But when I asked her all she said was that we just wanted to go to a simple restaurant to eat as a family, but I could tell that she was lieing so I decided to play along.

When we got their I was so surprised and happy I didn’t even expect them to take me to the place I have always wanted to go since my childhood.
