The Role Model
Born 1999, M, from VISAKHAPATNAM, India.jpg)
THE ROLE MODEL
A dead body was lying on the floor massaged with blood and beside that body was a man whose face was covered with a mask. The next thing that the masked man remembers is that he was being given appreciation and a huge amount of money as he had killed the most powerful underworld don of the district. But someone was watching the man when he killed that don. Who was that person?
Robin was a good looking man in his thirties. He was 6ft and 1inches. He lived in Saudi Arabia with his only child Michael. His wife had left him two years ago as she had an affair with another man who was rich as he was in the trading business. After one year he had moved to Saudi Arabia in search of work from Latvia. When he was in Latvia he used to work as a pizza boy. He lost that job due to some crisis in the shop and after that his wife had left him. His son was his only support. At first Robin used to think of committing suicide but when he used to look at his son’s face he used to feel so guilty that how small his thinking was. He only wanted to live for his son.
Robin knew that like any other kid in the world Michael also had some dreams and he wanted to fulfill his dreams. But when they moved to Saudi Arabia things changed rapidly. Robin was not like before. He came to Saudi Arabia in search of work and could not find in the first 2 months. But after that he was blessed with luck and he was provided a job at a construction. He used to send to Michael to a school where they used to give mid day meals also. He was very happy as he had made new friends in the school and he was adapting very quickly to the new environment. Robin was very happy for his son. But Robin knew that he was employed in such a job that was seasonal. So he had to find a job in which there was a good salary and good security. In the next months he used to move from place to place in search of job but couldn’t find one. After that construction job he got a job as a receptionist in a motel which was nearly half a kilometer from his house. It was easy for him to work there.
As years went by Michael was growing smart and smart. Robin knew that his son had the potential to become one of the greatest. Sometimes Robin used to feel that Michael needed a mother because he knew that a father can’t take the place of a mother and a mother can’t take the place of father. But he knew it was too late and he even used to think that Michael won’t be able to live with a new mother. Sometimes he used to cry while thinking about this. One day Michael told his father that he had to attend the school annual function as his child was getting an award. Robin promised his son that he will surely attend his son’s annual function. He led his son to his bedroom and said goodnight to him. After that he went in front of the mirror and had a look at himself. He had changed.
One day was left for his son’s school annual function and Robin needed a suit and a good haircut. He didn’t have enough money to buy a suit so he bought the suit on rent. After that he went for a haircut. He got his hair trimmed. After returning home he saw that Michael was asleep so he decided not to disturb him and he took a shower and after that he went to bed. The next day he reached Michael’s school auditorium where his annual function was scheduled to take place. It was a huge place and was well furnished. The seats had maroon colored covers on. When the awards function was going on Robin was only looking for Michael. Then that moment came, the school principal announced” best all rounder award for this academic session goes to Michael Sawyer”. A wave of claps roared in the auditorium. Robin was very proud of his son. When Michael came on the stage Robin said to himself” Michael looks like his mother”. After the annual school function Robin decided to take Michael to a restraunt for dinner. When they sat at the dining table Michael was deciding what to order. Robin felt that the environment of the restraunt was very uncomfortable. He noticed that people were staring at him. He told Michael that he would be back in a minute as he wanted to go to washroom. When he entered the washroom he saw that a tall man was washing his hands.
The man said in an ill mannered voice” You’re Robin, aren’t you?” Robin said yes with a great amount of fear. But how do you know? Robin asked. You’re unemployed Robin and you are searching for a better job, aren’t you? The other man said. No, Robin said I’m doing quite well and by the way thanks for asking. If you want any help please call me on this number, the other man gave him his card and then left. When Robin returned he saw that Michael was having his food. How’s the food son? asked Robin. Fantastic exclaimed Michael, the fish curry is the one that caught my eye. When they reached home Robin noticed that Michael was fast asleep. Then he started thinking about that person that he met in the washroom when he was in the restraunt. After sometime he also slept. The next day when Robin reached the motel he saw that a group of people who were employed in the motel were standing and talking hastily. Robin asked one of them” What happened? Why aren’t you all going in? The man said that that was no more a motel anymore. He said that an MNC has decided to built its company here that’s why, you can say that we all are now unemployed. Robin was shattered and didn’t know how to react to react to the situation.
When he reached home he was in no mood to talk. That night he decided to call on that number that that tall man had given him. Hello a bold voice answered on the other side. Hello, Robin said I think I met you yesterday in the restraunt and you told me that if I needed any help I can call you. Yes Robin tell, you need a job right now, am I right. Yes but, his voice was interrupted by the other man’s voice, meet me tomorrow at the same restraunt at 08:00pm, sharp. Ok said, robin. The next day Robin was there and met that man. The man asked him if he needed something to eat. No, thank you said Robin. The tall man said to Robin “I have some work for you if you want to do. Yes it would be great. The other man showed him the photo of a man and said to Robin that he had to kill the person who was in the photo. No, sorry I can’t do this sir. You’ll get a good amount of money Robin. Robin then thought about his son and unfortunately he had to say “Yes”.
The next day Robin reached that place where he had to kill that person. That person was a policeman and had arrested many of the country’s known thieves. Robin was given an umbrella to kill that person. It wasn’t an ordinary umbrella it had a small pin attached to its body which contained a harmful poison. Robin moved towards that man and tried to open the umbrella. When he was doing this he was successful in inserting the pin in that man’s neck. Ouch said the other man. Robin left from that place. The next day he got to know that that man was dead. Robin was feeling very guilty. Michael didn’t know about this and Robin told his son that he was still employed as a receptionist. As years went on Robin got himself in this profession and now he was a serious killer. But one day one thing happened which changed his life and his profession. Robin was told to kill an underworld don. The next thing that happened was this:
A dead body was lying on the floor massaged with blood and beside that body was a man whose face was covered with a mask. The next thing that the masked man remembers is that he was being given appreciation and a huge amount of money as he had killed the most powerful underworld don of the district. But someone was watching the man when he killed that don. Who was that person?
The masked man was Robin and the person who was watching him when he killed that don was his son Michael. Robin was in great fear when he got to know about this. When he reached his home he saw that Michael was trying to commit suicide by consuming acid. But Robin stopped him and hugged him. Then Michael said” Why dad, I thought you were a good person but you are a murderer dad. Michael ran into his bedroom and went to sleep. That night Robin could not forgive himself. He looked at his hands and thought that he had killed so many people who were father to someone. He started weeping. He said to himself that it’s over. The next day he explained everything to Michael and said to him that he loved him and wanted him to be a good person. Robin then called that tall man and told him that he wouldn't work for him anymore. Robin was a father of a son and he wanted to change himself, but not for himself but for his son and Robin wanted to become a role model for Michael.
