“Ohh! Sorry about the late intro, I am Erick Dahl and this is my cousin and friend, Aashi Dahl. But what should I call you, gramps!” Erick apologised for the late introduction then he introduced himself and Aashi. Erick felt that the old man might be offended if he called him old man directly so he addressed him as a gramps and asked the identity of the old man.

.....

“Hmmn! You can just call me old Jin or gramps Jin, and you don’t have to be so polite with me, young Erick.” Old Jin addressed himself humbly and didn’t bother with his full name as he finds it unnecessary. He also found the young man to his liking so he said to Erick to leave the formal way to talk to him and just be casual.

“Ok, Gramps Jin! Are you the one who took care of this garden?” Erick asked, feeling the genuine breath from the plants.

“Hmmn! Yes, I live alone here and I like doing this which keeps me occupied. At the same time, I can fulfil my hobby of taking care of plants.” Old man Jin replied and sitting down, he caressed the leaves and flowers.

In a world where otherworldly energy has awakened, Erick is sure that if the old man keeps doing the gardening with such care then tens of years later, one of these plants might gain spiritual wisdom.

“Gramps Jin! Didn’t your children visit from time to time?” Aashi asked, looking at the old man’s wrinkled face.

“Hahahah! Young lady. I only have two children, a son and a daughter. But they are filial children and they often visit me with lots of gifts, as I don’t need any materialistic things so I asked them to get me different kinds of plants instead.” Old Jin laughed remembering the happy moments with his children.

Aashi and Erick talked with old man Jin for quite some time then they took their leave after bidding goodbye to him.

.....

A few days later,

In the airport, two handsome middle-aged men can be seen passing the check-up to board the plane to Capital from Itami, in the Kansai region.

“Welcome to Itaminam Airlines, your seats are there, gentlemen. If you need anything, please feel free to call for our service.” The hostess welcomed them and showed them their sheets as they boarded the plane.

The only two VIP sheets belonged to them so the hostess was extra attentive to them and did her very best to look polite, and humble.

After that, they both sat down in their respective seats.

“So how is the service Mr Ricky, I hope it’s to your liking.” The black heard middle-aged man asked another middle-aged man who had blonde hair and a grey moustache wearing a black-white suit, looking handsome and dignified.

“No, everything’ s fine, Mr Katsutoshi.” The blonde-haired middle-aged man replied calmly.

“Again, Thank you for coming with me on such short notice, I will compensate Mr Ricky for any inconvenience you had.” Katsutoshi Kirin expressed his gratitude to Mr Ricky for agreeing to come with him.

“No..no!! I had no inconvenience so don’t worry about it, and I also wanted to look around the capital so helping you on the way won’t be a problem for me.” Mr Ricky replied by shaking his head as he has plans to look around the capital and check, how shallow the water is in the capital?

“Stil, I am grateful to Ms Aashi for giving me hope for curing my daughter. If you are successful with my daughter’s cure then you can inform Ms Aashi that in future, if the Star Dust Group ever needs any kind of help in the country then I will do my utmost to help out the Group. As you know, My daughter is the only family I have left so I don’t want anything else happening to her and want her to be able to live like a normal person, and not lay on the bed the rest of her life.” Katsutoshi Kirin feels grateful to Ms Aashi who helped him when he needed them the most and Mr Katsutoshi is a person who knows how to repay a favour.

“Hahaha! You don’t have to be so emotional, I understand and make sure that your daughter will be able to have a normal life.” Mr Ricky, feeling the atmosphere going in a sad direction, laughs to ease the mood of Mr Katsutoshi, and Mr Ricky tries to assure him.

After that, they had normal talk to pass the time and Mr Ricky taking the chance started asking Mr Katsutoshi about how his daughter’s condition started.

From what Katsutoshi was willing to tell, Mr Ricky got to know that his daughter was fine until she was in 14s, then suddenly she went into a coma and since then she hasn’t woken up.

Four or five years have gone by since then Mr Katsutoshi has been searching for a cure but he had no luck until Star Dust Group came out.

Mr Ricky found a lot of loopholes in Mr Katsutoshi’s story but he didn’t ask about it and kept to himself as he was sure that he would know once he saw the person who requires a cure.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your vice-captain and I am informing you to make sure that you all have your belts as we are landing shortly, thank you!” Two hours later, the vice captain’s voice sounded on the speaker.

These two hours have gone by shortly as they were busy with talks.

......

A half an hour later,

“Welcome back to the Capital, Sir!” Just as they came out of the airport, an old-looking butler greeted Mr Katsutoshi with enthusiasm.

“Hmmn! Good to see you, Butler Han!” Mr Katsutoshi gave him a nod and replied with a smile

Like any good butler, he first opened the car door for Mr Katsutoshi to enter and closed it then he opened another side door for his master’s guest to enter, and once Mr Ricky sat down he closed the door then he got into the driver seat.

“So where do you want to go first, Sir.” Butler Han asked after he started the car.

“Capital Main Hospital!” Mr Katsutoshi replied with a stoic face but sadness could be seen in his eyes.

“Ring... Ring..!!!”

Just as Butler Han started moving the car, Mr Ricky’s phone made a ringing sound.

“Ohh! Excuse me Mr Katsutoshi!” Mr Ricky, looking at the phone screen, gestures sorry towards Mr Katsutoshi then picks up the call and makes sure the voice won’t be heard by anyone except him.

“Hello, Aashi!” Mr Ricky answered the call.

“Master, have you reached the Capital?” Aashi’s delighted voice came from the other side.

“Yes, I just reached the Capital and am on my way to the hospital with Mr Katsutoshi to cure his daughter.” Replied Erick who was in disguise as Mr Ricky.

“Aashi, I will call you later as it’s not convenient for me, right now.” Erick felt it would be problematic for him if his disguise was known.

“Mmnn! Okay, then remember to call me. Otherwise, I will harass you by contacting you through our bond.” Aashi threatened playfully as both know once they use their bond all of their feelings become transparent to each other so they rarely use the bond now.

“Fine, I will call you back once I finish with this business. And take care of yourself. Bye for now!” Erick accepted his fate and thought he would call her as soon as he finished curing Mr Katsutoshi’s daughter.
