Oh Wow! I wasn't expecting you to put God as our business partner at the end. I was too busy getting mad at the man in the story who kept the 100%.
Great story plot, btw. You certainly zeroed in on the man's ingratitude effectively. I guess, we all experience a bit of that ingratitude at one time or another in our lives. A big Ooops!
One day, the phone won't ring with your father's voice on the other end.
One day, you'll wish he had more time to share stories and laughter with you.
One day, he'll stop offering the advice he always thought was best for you.
One day, the house that was always filled with his warm hug will feel strangely quiet.
One day, all that will be left are the memories of your time together.
Time moves on relentlessly, indifferent to everyone.
And on that day, you'll feel a loss so pensive that nothing and no one will ever truly replace it.
