MEETING THE FATHER - PART I
Adam, a man wearing a muddy grey jeans, black t-shirt and a brown jacket walked into a town. The people loving in that town gathered around him and pointed spears at him. They tied his hands and took him to the tallest building in the town.
In that building, there  lived a tall man with grey hair and a long beard. The man looked at his people and asked them to untie Adam.

'Face of a warrior but, no scar. Never been to a fight I guess. What's your name boy?'      asked the old man, looking at Adam.

'I'm Adam. Who are you and why did they brought me here?'    asked Adam, looking at the people.

'Adam. Hmm. My people call me Father, you can call me father too.'   said the old man.

The father walked towards his men. He went closer to a bald man and whispered something in his ears. The bald man acme towards Adam, he pushed him down and took his bag. The bald man started searching Adam's bag.

' Let Bighead do his job.'     said the father.

Adam stood up on his feet.

'Give me my bag and let me go.' said Adam loudly.

'A machete, a shotgun with two bullets, few photographs and man...many match boxes.' said Bighead looking at the father.
Big head was looking shocked.

'Count the boxes.'  said the father.

Adam got angry. He stood in front of the father.

'Are you even listening to me? I said, I want my BAG BACK.'      Adam yelled.

'Look around you. See those happy faces. We aren't bad guys. We are here to protect the helpless.'     said the father and he pushed Adam towards his people.

'One sixty.'     said  Bighead loudly.

When people heard the number, they were shocked.

'You might be the richest person. Use it for the wise. '    said the father, looking at Adam.

Bighead gave the bag back to Adam.

'I know how to use them.'     said Adam.

The father told the people gathered in the room to leave him and Adam alone. The people left the room.

'You too Barissa.'     said the father, looking at the roof.

'She's a beautiful girl with a good heart. Stays in the roof and always looks after me. Sneaks actually.'    said the father.

The father continued        'Look at this room. The termites have already destroyed it, completely. A loud fart and this whole building will be on the ground.'

'What do you want from me?'     asked Adam.

'I want you to be a part of us. Help us rebuild and protect this city.'   said the father.

The father continued       'You have the wealth. You can use it for the good.'

Adam started to doubt the father.

'I think I should be going right now.'  said Adam.

The father walked towards the window. He looked out at the sky through the window.

'It's almost dark. Stay here for towady. Enjoy the town and it's people.'   said the father.

Adam thought for a second and he agreed to stay in the town.
