"This much of an important thing has happened while I was in abroad? I never have thought that you do marry and settle in your life Stuart." Dr.Peterson said with a surprising expression in his face.

"If uncle has not come to our organisation again and his niece visited on him to live along with him for few days, it would not have happened like that." Stuart said. "Anyhow I am very sorry that I have to marry in your absence."

"Never mind. What all the time I wished was; that you have to marry and have children to look after the vast empire of your dad and his name." Dr.Peterson leaned back in the chair and said. "If your dad were alive, he would not have let you remain unmarried all these days."

"That is what I also felt." David Carter said. "Anyhow after my coming here again, I brainwashed him by saying how much important it is to him to marry and have children. I think that also has worked out."

Stuart leaned back in the chair with a smile but did not say anything to that.

"Anyhow I am very much happy that you came back David Carter. I know how much Stuart's dad liked you and loved you. I was out of station then when you went away from this place and what really made you to go away from here then I don't know." Looking into the face of David Carter who sat beside him in the chair, Dr.Peterson said.

"That was indeed a big mistake! If I have not gone like that then, Stuart's dad would not have died like that. He would have felt really very much for me as I went away so which caused heart attack so to him."

"No, uncle. It is not so at all. Dad did not die because of your going away like that. He worried very much for something and that something caused his death. I already told you about this." Stuart paused for a second before saying again. "In one of those days while I was in USA, he suddenly phoned to me and said to me that there was something very important to discuss. I asked him to tell me what it was but he did not like to tell that to me over phone but asked me to come India as fast as I could. I cancelled all the further programs in USA and came to India but by that time itself dad died." Stuart paused for a second and said. "Dad's voice was with full of distress and I could understand that he was worrying very much about something then."

"You said about it Stuart, I remember that." David Carter nodded his head.

"Yes, you mentioned about this to me also." Dr.Peterson said. "Did you try to know in all respects what it is?"

"I have tried in every way but could not find that out." Stuart sighed heavily and adjusted for more comfort in his chair.

"How pathetic it is I could not be with my friend in such a crucial point of time! I was held up in Australia at that time. I have asked to give training to the medical students there and I could not deny." Peterson's face was suddenly with a worrying expression.

"Uncle it has happened a long time back and there will be no use in worrying about it now." Stuart said. "Anyhow I am feeling very much happy as two very important people in my dad's life, who love me and like me a lot are once again with me. I also want you both to be happy like that."

"You are absolutely right Stuart." Nodding his head Dr.Peterson said. "I do love the son of my great friend as much as I do love him. Just tell me if anything I can do for you."

"You sure can do one thing for me." Stuart said and looked into the face of David Carter. "David uncle's life is in very much precarious condition. He has suffered heart attack two times and he has been told by the doctors that he would not have it for the fourth time. I put him in your hands and it is your responsibility to keep him all healthy and make him live not less than hundred years."

"Even I am shocked to hear this, I just feel so much happy to do it like that." With an enthusiastic expression in his face Peterson said. "He just has to give me the opportunity to examine him thoroughly and I tell in how much danger he is in and what type of care he has to take."

"But Stuart......." David Carter said. "............now I am feeling alright and I don't want any health check-ups etcetera while I am feeling good. For the present I just don't like any health examinations by anyone to me."

"Uncle, you know you are such a close relative to Jasmine and you know how much she likes and loves you. So it is very important that you have to take absolute care of your health atleast for her sake."

"Now I am sixty five years aged and however much care I take, I know I have to leave this world in other five or so years. As you have taken the responsibility of Jasmine, what is there I need to worry about? Being treated myself as a patient just makes me feel nervous." David Carter said.

"If it is so............." Dr.Peterson laughed. "..............don't compel him for any testing or treatment. If there is any necessity arisen, I am here always available."

Stuart nodded his head with a smile and after five minutes Dr.Peterson left that place.

"How is your life with Jasmine so far?" after finishing some crucial discussion with Stuart, David Carter asked him. "I meant that crucial part between you both."

"It is just wonderful! You just be relaxed." Remembering how they both have it together last night, Stuart laughed happily.

"Then I have no worries at all." David Carter got off from the chair. "There are important works I need to look after."

"Now is the time for celebration." David Carter said and at that moment he was assembled with Stuart, Jasmine and Isabella in his house. They were in his house for half an hour or so discussing all sorts of matters. "I have discharged my major duty and obligation that is the marriage of Jasmine. I could put her in the safest hands and I am sure Stuart would look after her better than I also. I don't need to feel fear presently whether I do have the chance to get the heart attack for the fourth time or not."

"Don't you stop talk in that way?" Jasmine angrily yelled. "How you can be that much insensitive without thinking how the other people would feel about it?"

"But dear you should understand that it is inevitable. I have to leave this world quite sooner than you and you need to be prepared for my absence."

"Oh, god! I just don't know what to say!" nodding her head helplessly Jasmine said.

"Sir, you said this is an occasion for celebration but you are talking things which make us feel bad." Isabella said.

"Yes, uncle, please! Don't talk like that. We cannot take your death as easily as you are taking it." Stuart said.

"Good things I did not expect at all have taken place after my coming here." David Carter said as if he did not hear Stuart. "One among them is Isabella's becoming friend to Jasmine. I can say for sure that Jasmine has no close friend like Isabella till date. I think Isabella has guided her in many respects and made her a matured woman."

"Jasmine is an intelligent girl but she lacked understanding of certain things. I am considerably aged to her and there is no surprise that I have good knowledge over those things and yes, I have guided her and counselled her in those matters in which she has no proper ideas."

"Not just you are aged to her but you are a psychologist also." David Carter said "Your knowledge in psychology also helped you in moulding her."

"I have my graduation with psychology as a major. Just by that you cannot say that I am a psychologist." Isabella laughed. "A person has to do some more to be called as a psychologist."

"But I must say you can assess other people mentalities and guide them." Stuart said. "That indeed helped Jasmine to become matured in her thinking process." He remembered how Jasmine has cooperated with him in the last night in having sex with her

"Yes, you are right." David Carter nodded his head. "The other major good thing." he said as if he remembered with what he started that conversation. "That was Jasmine's marriage with Stuart. I never have thought a love like feeling was possible in her. But she not only fell in love with a great person like Stuart but married him also."

"You are saying the same thing again and again uncle." Isabella laughed and said. "I don't know how many times you said this after she became his wife."

"Good things ought to be remembered any number of times." David Carter also laughed. "That is one thing which makes me always feel so happy."

"Alright, alright. What about the celebration? In which way we are going to celebrate this happy mood?" Stuart asked him.

"What great celebration there would be than talking all the good things in between ourselves like this?" David Carter looked into the face of Stuart with knitted brows. "I don't feel happy in any other thing except thinking about the present good days and golden future."

Then for some more time they talked like that before the other three left David Carter in his house and retired to their respective places.

***

"David Carter did not come to the office yet." Isabella said to Stuart. "He never has become late to the office like this."

"He would have worked late last night so could not wake up early in the morning." Anyhow David Carter's becoming late like that to the office was surprising to him also.

"Working late nights is not new to him. But he is always punctual to the office. We have no information from him that he would become late like this on this day." There was an alarming expression in the face of Isabella.

"Why do we break our heads this much for it?" Stuart took out his cell phone and dialled the number of David Carter putting it on speaker. They could hear the ringing sound for a long time but no one attended it.

"He would have waken up late and may be in the bathroom now." Leaning back in the chair Stuart said with a meaningful expression in his face.

"I am thinking that it is better we do go and look in his house." Isabella said with little uneasiness in her face. "There is no loss anyhow in doing so."

"You are right. We do so." Suddenly Stuart got off from the chair and said.

***

"I did not expect this at all, I just could not!" finding David Carter dead on the bed Stuart said with a horrifying expression in his face. "I have no doubt that he is dead for a good time."

When Isabella expressed like that Stuart also started feeling uneasily and they both reached to the house of David Carter in no time. But as the doors were not opened however many times they pressed the calling bell, they have to make the doors broken to enter into that house and went straight into his bedroom. There David Carter was lying flat on the bed as if he were sleeping but a little examination of him confirmed Stuart that he was dead for a considerable period of time.

"It is not very much surprising! He suffered heart attack two times. He might have suffered it on the last night also and died." There was not much shock in her as if she expected it like that.
