Eternity reveals people!

Fred broke the tension of that moment and said: "Mark, I'm hungry."

Mark and Jason move their hands off to the normal mood and looked at Fred.

Mark: "Okay, then Mr. Jason also must be very tired and hungry. Follow me!"

Jason smiled at Fred.

Jason: "Wait, I need to park my car first."

Mark stopped and looked at Jason and nodded by saying: "Okay, then Fred and I are still waiting for you here. Take your time."

Jason got in the car and parked his car at the safe spot.

He went back to the place where Fred and Mark were waiting for him.

Jason: "Sorry for letting you guys wait. Let's go."

Mark (Passed a smile) responded: "No problem Mr. Jason. Fred and I were just having a good conversation here."

(Fred and Mark curiously gazed at each other.)

They both (Jason and Fred) follow Mr.Mark to his place.

They both (Fred and Jason) stopped in front of the house. The entrance gate of the house was made up of old wood. It looked like a gate of a lost tomb.

[Mark was living in the small house of one room, one small kitchen, and one bathroom with a small lounge. His house was old but everything was tidied up. Mark liked to clean the place where he lived. He spent his childhood in that house with his mother. After the death of his mother when he was a hardworking child, he moved to the main city of the country.]

Mark: "This is my place. We are here."

Mark looked at Jason and Fred because they were looking at each other and they were passing a smile towards each other.

Mark: "What's wrong? Didn't you rich guys like my place?"

Fred chuckled and said: "Come on, Mark. We are just thinking about something else."

Mark: "You both? Do you guys think the same?"

Jason: "Yes actually I'm here to discuss a very important topic with you."

Mark (nodded) responded: "Okay let's head in and discuss the topic later on."

Jason nodded as if he agreed.

They both head into the place and yes, It was a neat and clean place, and everything was wrapped upon the exact spot a lot where it should be.

They took off their shoes and mark gave them two pairs of slippers.

[There was a sofa in the lounge. That sofa was torn as if the mouse had chomped the clothe or cover of that sofa.]

They both sat on that sofa.

Mark: "What do you want to drink? I mean, Coffee, Tea, or green tea."

Jason: "Water."

Mark, "Water?"

Jason: "Yes, Mr. Mark. You don't need to treat us like this. Just don't be formal."

Mark: "Okay and Fred you?"

Fred: "Water."

Mark: "Okay then you both wait here. I'll get the water for both of you."

Mark served water to them and said, "What would you guys like to eat?"

Jason passed a smile towards Mr. Mark and said: "It seems like you want us to eat first and what about me. I mean, I am here to give you, oh, I mean to propose you for something."

Mark nodded his head in no (as if he was not agreed that time) and responded: "Mr. Jason, Look man, you drove here right so you must be tired and hungry. You are here till tomorrow. I mean you are gonna go back to your place tomorrow. So we still have time to discuss the matter that you want to talk about. I'll listen to your matter but first, let's eat something because you look like you are starving. So you just don't worry yourself. We'll better talk later."

Mark: "No tell me what you guys want to eat?"

Fred: "I want to eat uhhhh..... Anything is fine. I'm just hungry."

Mark: "Mr.Jason? And you?"

Jason: "Anything. I'm not picky."

Mark: "Okay then, I know the best place near my house. That is situated in the back street. The food there is 100 percent delicious. You both would love that food. Let's go there."

Fred stood up and headed towards the entrance to go out.

Mark turned to the same way as Fred but suddenly, Jason held the left hand of Mr. Mark and said, "Mr. Mark, I need to tell you something first.

Mark move his hand to get rid of Jason's hand and passed a smile to Jason.

Mark responded: " Mr. Jason. We'll talk about it later."

Jason got shocked by the normal reaction of Mr. Mark.

At a spot, he thought that by any chance, Mark might know about the topic that he (Jason) was trying to discuss with Mark.

They entered the restaurant and that was open-air. It was like a street food restaurant. Mark pulled a chair for Fred and then Jason. Jason bowed his head to thank Mr. Mark. Me mark also sat on the chair and called the server and give the order of food and when the food arrived at their table. they reacted like it is ordinary food. When they took a bite of the meal they were amazed. The food was very delicious.

Mark stopped eating and asked (Jason): "Oh yes, Mr. Jason. What is your Job?"

Jason: " I have a business of textile."

Mark: "Oh so, you are a businessman. No wonder you look sensible. So what is the name of your business."

Jason: "It's (K-ave's)."

Mark: "K-ave's?

Jason: " Actually my son's name is Kevin so my wife gave a name to my business. I started my business I mean I own company three years ago."

Mark: "Wow! great man. You are the best successful businessman."

Jason: "Mr. Mark."

Mark looked at Jason with a smiling expression on his face.

Mark responded: "Hmm?"

Jason: "I uhhh actually. I am thankful to you for meeting me. I mean I just...."

Mark cut off Jason's words and said: "Mr. Jason. No problem. You know what? I always like to meet new people and you are my guest so I must serve you in the best way as much as I can."

Jason nodded as if he is agreed, looked towards the food, and started to eat again.

They returned to Mark's home after dining in the restaurant.

Fred took a yawn.

Fred: "I am very sleepy. I need to sleep. I'm going by."

Jason: "Mr. Mark, let's walk around together."

Mark looked at Jason and nodded.

They head out of the house to do a walk.

Jason saw a bench on the side of the park near Mark's home.

Mark followed him (Jason) and sat beside Jason.

Jason was looking at a park.

Mark: "You know what, Mr. Jason? I've seen so many people treating me by every method. Some were very sweet, Some were so rude. Some people disgusted me."

Jason looked at Mark and said: "Hmm, Indeed you've seen so many ups and downs in your life."

Mark: "My mother had always dreamed and wished to get a son. When she gave birth to me, she hides my reality and my true self from everyone even from my father. I had two elder sisters. They always put on some lipsticks and makeup and all the girly stuff on me. One day, I was wearing my sister's frock and I put on the lipstick. After seeing that, My mom slapped on my face for the first time and the last time in my life. She wants me to be a gentleman, not a girl. She wants me to act like a normal guy. She loved me so much. She tried to hide my true gender but she couldn't. Then my father pushed me and my mom away from his house. He never loved me. He never looked at me like a loving and caring father. I and my mom were homeless and helpless. We slept outside. So many nights, I slept so many nights while sleeping on street benches. My mom found a job. She became a maid. One day I was starving and I ate the leftover junk from the hotel. I saw a waiter of the hotel throwing the plastic bag filled with junk leftover in the garbage can. I hid behind the wall and saw him when he left I pulled the plastic bag from the garbage can and ate that food. I got sick. I had food poisoning. My mom was very worried. But I survived. When I was fifteen years old, my mom got sick due to blood cancer. After one and half years, my mom died due to her cancer."

Jason looked at Mark and asked: "Then what happened?"

Mark passed a smile and said: "Her(my mother's) death was the only moment when I last cried. After then, I've never cried. I was alone at this house and I worked hard. I did a full-time job and studied at night. Two years later, I saw a vacancy for a teaching job at an orphanage school in your city. Now I am known as an experienced teacher and everyone respects me in this society. I've lost everything to get success to get respect. Even, I've never slept at night. I don't like to sleep."

Jason got curious and asked: "Why?"

Mark looked forward (at the park) and said: "Because I was afraid. I was afraid to forget my mother's tears, her sacrifices for me. Her teary eyes and worried face is my only memory."

Jason passed a smile to Mark and said: "Mr. Mark when Fred told me about you I didn't even realize I just wanted to see you I wanted to meet you and talk about a very important matter."

Mark: "Mr. Jason, Man you are such an amazing personality. I am obsessed with you."

Jason: "Come on, Mr. Mark. You should not address me as 'Mr'. Just call me by my name and it's 'Jason'. I would be happy if you call me by my name. I am the one who should be obsessed and amazed with your cool personality.

Mark laughed and said: "ahahah okay Mr.* I mean, Jason. Thank you so much man to give me this honor."

Jason looked forward towards the park's trees and passed a smile.

Jason: "I am having a best and blessing family. I love all of them. Mom, Row, Kevin, and Edina. These four people are a part of my life and I want to protect all of them. But..."

Mark looked at Jason and unexpectedly said: "But you want to give me your transgender child. Right?"

Jason got shocked and he looked at Mark.
