Finding Adam

"I'm here." Adam lifted his head slowly to face the man who was now wearing his coat and tie.

Adam's round eyes were misty like he was holding back not to cry.

"Still angry?" Bill Sky sounded cold.

He was like talking to an adult rather than a kid.

Adam just nodded.

There's no point in hiding his true feelings from his dad.

His eyes still carried hatred towards Bill Sky.

"Adam..." Bill called as he calmly fixed his tie. "Men should not be weak. That's the reason why kings are men. Do you understand?" His sharp eyes looked at Adam who was obviously contemplating his feelings.

His thoughts were with his mom.

Earlier, Bill called Adam.

He was hesitant to answer his father but deep inside him, he wanted to hear his father's voice.

So, he answered.

"Adam, I'm in the hospital. Would you care to pay me a visit?" Bill's voice was plain.

There's no trace of emotion in his tone.
