Ch 5 - 'The City Where Dreams Come True'

"Yes mam... Yes, I will definitely come tomorrow thank you... Thank you so much..."

Then Will hung up the phone and picked up his two sons excitedly.

"Hahaha!!! Finally Papa will be able to be a Hollywood Actor!!! Hooray!!!"

The twins seeing their father happy also feels happy, albeit not knowing what an actor is, they shouted alongside their father happily.

"Huraa" "Huraaa"

The trio father and sons smiled at each other and laughed.

"Hahahahaha!!"

The scene goes on until the three of them unknowingly falls asleep on the bed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In a small room, a man and a woman were cuddling on the bed. The man caress the woman's belly lovingly while the woman looked at him amused.

"Willy, what do you think our twins would become?"

"A man of course, well maybe if they want to be a transgender I won't stop them, but not until they're 21"

The woman looked at him as if looking at an idiot.

"That's not what I meant you silly! I mean like their job"

"Ohh, well I hope they would become a teacher"

"A teacher? Why? Don't you want them to be an actor or a businessman?"

"Well to be honest with you my dream job is a teacher, it's good to be hero without cape you know. Haven't I told you already?"

"Really? You never told me about that"

"I haven't? I've told you at Valentine's day, You must've forgotten... Well, I want to go get some water in the kitchen"

"No I'm pretty sure you haven't! You want to lie to me didn't you? Why are you escaping?? Who did you tell?? Come here you bad guy!!"

"No, I'm just kidding Feli!! I'm just kidding!!! Ahhh!!"

"Hmph! That's what you get for lying to me! Hahaha!!"

"Willy..." "Willy-" "Willy!!!" "It hurts Willy!!!!" "I'm sorry Willy..." "Henry... Harry..."

Then he looked at Laura's lifeless body holding the twins in her arms.

"Feli!!! Hah!! Hah!! Hah!!"

Will suddenly woke up from the bed with heavy breath and sweats dropping off all over his body.

"Huff... huff... It's just a nightmare Will, it's just a nightmare"

When Will was calming himself down, two pairs of little hands reached out to him.

"Papa..."

Will looked at the source and saw Henry and Harry looking at him with a worried look.

"Henry? Harry? Why are both of you awake? Did I woke you up?"

Both of them nod together.

"Papa sleeps bad like Harry sick" henry explained while pointing at Harry.

"No Papa is not sick, Papa is just having a nightmare"

"What nightmare?" Harry asked

"Nightmare is a bad dream"

"Like bad wolf chase?"

Will smiled at his son's metaphor.

"Yes like being chased by a bad wolf. Well then, come here let me sing you to sleep again"

"Yay!"

Then Henry and Harry crawled towards Will, Henry sat on his lap while Harry laid on hid other lap.

"So what song do you want to hear about?"

"Mommy!" Both of them answered simultaneously.

Will froze for awhile, and then sighed.

"Okay... I will sing you a song about Mommy from a far away land in the north"

(It is recommended to read this while listening to the song [Evan Rachel Wood - All Is Found Lyric Video], as the sing along version have too many monologues and just imagine it with a very manly voice :3)

"Where the North wind meets the sea"

"There's a river full of memory"

"Sleep, my darling, safe and sound" Will touch their nose, earning the boys' giggles.

"For in this river, all is found"

"In her waters, deep and true"

"Lie the answers and a path for you"

"Dive down deep into her sound"

"But not too far or you'll be drowned"

Will looked at the fast asleep Harry and moved him up to his pillow then he picked Henry up onto his arms.

"Yes, she will sing to those who'll hear"

"And in her song, all magic flows"

"But can you brave what you most fear?"

"Can you face what the river knows?"

"Where the North wind meets the sea"

"There's a mother full of memory"

"Come, my darling, homeward bound"

"When all is lost, then all is found"

Then Will lower him onto his bed.

"I love you Papa"

Will smiled, "I love you too Henry" Earning a grunt from Harry, "and you too Harry" Harry hum in satisfied in his sleep.

After he said that he cover them with a blanket and goes out of the room. Before he close the door, he looked at the two of them fast asleep and smiled again.

"I love both of you, goodnight..."

Then he put out the light and close the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Many people said New York is the center of the world, that one place where cultures kept coming and piling on top of each other. With more than 8 million in it's small area, making it one if not the busiest City in the world.

In this busy city there is also a quiet corner where most of the rich people in the city lives called Sands Point. (This is just fictional, the place is real but I don't know if it's really a rich people area. I got these data from google maps, mainly because the houses and the land in this area are bigger than others)

At the northern most part of the are you'll see a different sight from other houses. There is a natural barrier separating the area from the others. As if the area was sealed off of the other houses.

Although this area is quiet big, there is only one house built. Showing how wealthy the family owning it compared than the others.

From the outside, the house looks like an old castle with vines occasionally hanging down the balcony. But the inside is very modern and elegant, with ornament decorating the walls and ceiling.

Inside one of the bedroom, also the largest bedroom in the house, stand two middle aged man. With one slightly older than the other.

The younger one looked at the window facing the West as the ray of sunlight came from the window behind the older one, his eyes looking as if he could ignore the distance and see what is happening in the west coast. While the older one stood humbly a few steps behind the younger one respectfully.

The younger man is Stephen Benedict Coulson, William's father. A very successful American businessman of Jewish-Germanic descent. Unlike other successful businessman like Bill Gates which is successful because of the support from his already rich Family.

Stephen came from an ordinary middle-class family. Although he has an aristocratic blood from his father, but because of the rising Nazi Party in Germany His father and grandfather has too fled from their homeland and take as many valuables as they could to America.

Raised as a White Collar's son, he came to understand business and accounts from an early age of 10, mastered his second language at the age of 12. By the age of 21, he had already finished his 1st degree in Business.

Step by step he walked up the ladder of class, from the son of ordinary White Collar man to the now one of the heavy figures of business in the world. Comparable to Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.

But unlike both of the latter who is very very famous world wide and has a tendency to be high key, Stephen is a very very very low key person. So lowkey in fact to the point where only a few thousand people in the capitalist world know one or two things about him. And only about a few hundreds knows who he really is.

Even his cycle of friends is not more than 50 people, and that is from all walks of life, not just capitalist.

And that includes the Older man. His name is Arthur Kings, a butler who had followed him for more than 30 years. Arthur had seen with his own eyes how Stephen step by step become a world giant now, even going bigger than his own father-in-law.

"What's my stupid son doing there?" Stephen asked suddenly as he turned his body towards the antique chair and sat on it.

"Young sire situation there is mostly fine, yesterday morning he just took part in a public audition for a sci-fi movie called 'Avatar', and at night he was confirmed to get the leading role in it"

Don't think that old Arthur answer is weird, because only Arthur knows what Stephen is trying to ask is not 'What', but 'How'. With more than 30 years going side by side, only Arthur knows what Stephen is really trying to say, even Marie might not have understood of what Stephen is trying to say.

"And the child?"

"They are healthy, very healthy in fact, even though the younger one had once caught a fever in Britain, but other than that they never had any other sickness"

"Good, because I would have killed him myself if any of them got any serious disease. He didn't deserve to live if he can't even raise his own flesh and blood"

The room suddenly fell quite for a while.

"Then sire do you need me to arrange anything for them?"

"No... Let them be for now. I want to see how he will fare in that toxic environment he call 'The City Where Dreams Come True'" Stephen smiled amusedly at the saying.
