Too Drunk to Identify

“Sir Rainier? Mister Keith’s on the phone.”

Rainier was busy scrolling through his parents’ social media when Jake entered the room and told him that his grandfather was calling him. He dismissed Jake immediately before answering the beeping telephone beside him.

“Pops,” Rainier answered.

“You’ve been skipping meals and haven’t even visited me even though we live under the same roof. You’ve been locking yourself up in your working office. I never got to see you for the past few weeks. Are you having some trouble, kid?”

Rainier sighed.

Now that his grandfather mentioned it, Rainier realized that he’s been too preoccupied that he almost forgot that he’s living with his grandfather in this mansion. He felt guilty about his realization.

“I’m sorry, I was too busy arranging all the amendments for our new branch in the nearby city,” he answered.
