The house stood out in the street as it was the shabbiest of them all. The roof with holes, the walls grey and the windows mended by duct tape. It was clear that the house belonged to a poor family for any onlooker. The inside of the house was even worse than the outside.

If you were to peek through the cracked window you would see a woman and man fighting and a toddler on the floor crying. The woman was crying yelling about unpaid bills and the needs of the kid and the man were yelling about no jobs and wages.

As the years passed the toddler became a middle schooler. One day the child came home and saw his mother on the porch crying. His father left them, the divorce paper still in his mother hands. The mother started taking her anger and despair out on him. She called him names, told him he was the reason his father left, slapping him and beating both of them crying. That was the last he heard from his father.

The middle schooler turned into a teenager with hardships all the way. Bullied by his classmates for not having a father and still being a topper of the class. You would think that was it but the words he heard from the school, he heard from his mother too. His trust in love kept falling apart and for him, love was nothing, a weakness, a disability.

As the days passed the teenager wanted to escape the poverty, the hollowness in his life. He grew up to be a man with a vision. He met Mr. Damon Ambrose and started a business. Furthermore, he went from a poor unknown kid in a small neighborhood to a billionaire with a multinational company having a lot of franchises.

Along the way, he met Miss Annie a kind, naïve, beautiful, innocent woman with a heart filled with love enough for the universe and married her. Though he had no interest in her, her persistence came through and of course a bit of pressure from Mr. Ambrose they got married and had 3 beautiful kids.

Though he tried his best to love them all for him love was still non-existent. The kids never felt that fatherly love that they saw their friends getting from their fathers. He made sure they never short of anything in their lives. A little while when he started to think about love tragedy struck his home once again. His wife left him after 20 years of giving her all to him and their kids.

That was when the little ray of love shatteredonce again, never to be seen again. The distance between him and his lifebecame more, and it became robotic to the core.
