Chapter 2 - 2. Henry Ford

In the year 1626...

In a small town named Prada, of Ceferin Division, there lived a boy. The sun rising tall for the day.

It's been 5 and 01 am.

The classic wooden home furnished with scrubs, having colourful paints on windows.

In front to the main gate there is a stair and the basement door beside.

The warm sunray from the window landed on the boy's face. That Boy was busy sleeping. He swiftly turned the opposite side to avoid the light. That boy forced his body to get up while his spirit was going against it.

In the end, he stood up. He was wearing the ash colour night dress. He wore his sandals after gathering together using toes.

It's a hard thing to go to the opposite of your own will. The boy started walking slowly. Just trying to reach the washroom.

He suddenly stopped. His eyes became wider as he tried to turn his head on his left.

A black cat was sitting there on top of the reading table. She had a very angry face.

Her death stare made the boy think for a second. He rushed at the cat with a package of fish curry. Has salad, egg, boiled rice with the container.

That cat said " Myaaaaaaa " and proceeds to eat her meal.

That boy's hand was flinching while trying to pull the towel from the closet. He took some clothes out, looking cool and frenzy.

While entering the bathroom he was checking his chained pocket clock. Still three hours left. At 9am he has to go somewhere.

" Come on... You can do it! "

He was encouraging himself to bath.

He managed to hold the water's rage at first time... Not for long.

" AAAAAAARRRRRRRRHHHHGGGGGG "

The boy came out from bathroom after some times. Water dripping from his body made the floor bit wet.

He hurrily changed his dresses. A black trousers, white t-shirt and a brown leather jacket. Combing his hair to straighten, he washed his hand and face once again.

He cleaned the floor by broom and then gets ready for breakfast. The silent guy reserved some beef last night.

The black cat has a collar tag hanging around his throat. Her name is ' Mimi '.

The boy hurrily took his breakfast. Shared some of his meal to Mimi. The boy was talking to the cat while eating.

Dining table had only four chairs, three empty. He planted some pea last night in a vase near the kitchen.

From outside the house looked like ordinary but from inside it was very good designed by the light red paint.

Finishing the breakfast, he took the plates in kitchen. Mimi was confused seeing why he is in such hurry.

The boy took a clear file and keys with him. He was kinda nervous and frustrated.

He said, " Take care. I will be back soon " to Mimi before locking the main door from outside. He stood in a side of the street.

Beside street there were many house line by line, also carrying a index number.

The Boy took a carriage and went for Prada Military University. Streets were basically made by stones. It was well constructed and flat too. Which could help vehicles to drive in ease.

The Boy saw a person in the same carriage. A lady was looking outside by the window, her face was showing a sadness. She was wearing a beautiful veil which lead him take a glare at her. He can predict someone of her has died.

The Boy was not interested in beautiful girls but kindhearted women.....

The carriage stopped. The Boy gets out from the carriage and just realised, he forgot to take his hat with him. He couldn't do anything but sigh.

He entered the main gate of the University.

He pushed his chest forward, proceeds to do sun walk.

The Boy was actually a student of this University. Now his last exam results are out. There will be only the average mark shown.

After completing the 3rd year, he will get the application form to join any job. Last year 71% students failed.

Result will be shown at 9am. Currently it's being like 8am. He came early just not to caught in crowd problem. Some people already came here. Most of them hanging up with their girlfriend.

He was around the notice board. Just waiting for the moment when the result comes out.

After some pile of minutes, finally, the result was pinned on the notice board. The Boy jumped up in sky roaring like a lion.

He was sure he will be in top 50 definitely. But his confidence level made him regret. He found himself at 51th, the name was written ' Henry Ford. '

Henry felt bad for being in that spot. He admits his place. Now he will have to meet the principal tomorrow.

He took a carriage again. Costing total two pounds. It was late afternoon. He was hanging outside to freshen his mood.

As he opened the door, Mimi jumped on Henry's face. Henry puts her down and adores her.

" Phew! I need to work. I can't just lie down on my fate. "

" Meeeeeooooowwww! "

Henry enlightens all the torches hanging in the wall. The environment is becoming darker.

...

Henry just finished his bath once again. He was feeling very tired from inside. Mimi was guarding the noodles in kitchen which was being fried. He went there and put the noodles from the pan.

Henry and Mimi both shared the noodles. Mimi grabbed a spoon and tries to take a sip, she couldn't. Eats using her tongue and paws.

Henry was smiling looking at Mimi.....

Henry finishes his dinner in minutes while Mimi is still struggling, least finished the half bowl.

Henry cleaned the bowl. He sat beside a window. Grabbed a framed photo in hands.

In the photo, there was a average man, a woman and a child on shoulders...

Henry took Mimi by both hands and raised up.

" If feels bad when you lose, but it feels more sad when you win but there is none left to cheer up for you. I am not afraid of dying, but being forgotten by everyone. Although, I don't have anyone who could remember me."

Both spends some time with eachother.
