“I’m Doing It With Father And Son” –

I saw him as the father I never had. I was working for him but he treated me like his daughter. Whenever we travelled on a work assignment, he treated me like I was his boss. He listened to me. He asked for my opinions before doing anything. He’s not young. He’s as old as my father but he treated my opinion as sacred and came to me for more.

He isn’t tech-savvy so I handled his phone, sent his personal emails and responded to his messages. Working relationship turned into a romantic affair. It happened so fast I didn’t have the space to even think about my actions. He kissed me one day. I got frozen. I didn’t kiss back but he kept going and going and then he said, “Yeah, that’s how I feel about you…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

I’m sorry if I scared you.” Yes, he scared me because I didn’t see it coming. All day he kept apologizing for his actions. He was apologizing for scaring me but on the other hand, he was asking me to be his girlfriend. I said yes, anxious about how our working relationship was going to be like going forward. Nothing changed. Apart from being sexual and sharing a room when we travelled, our working relationship stayed professional. We tried our best not to allow our emotions to leak out whenever others were around. But when we were alone, we were in a world of our own.

A guy came to the office one day and introduced himself as Richmond. He asked to see my boss. I asked if he had an appointment and he smiled. He said, “I’m sorry but he’s my dad. He knows I’m coming.” I hurriedly walked to his office and told him about this visitor who was claiming lineage to him.

I said, “Your son is here.” He responded, “Oh he told you? Let him in.” When I came back to ask him to go in, he asked for my name and I told him. He introduced himself again as if I didn’t hear him the first time. “We’ll talk. I’d like to know you more. And don’t worry, I’ll talk to my dad about it before we talk.” I nodded and watched his back as he walked in.

He walked back out with his dad in tow. He tapped on my table and said, I’ll get in touch.” I nodded again while looking at the face of his father. He was blank. Like a poker player reading an opponent. When Richmond left, I went in to ask what he said about me. He went straight to the point, “I think he likes you. He came to see me but ended up asking plenty of questions about you.” A few days later, a call came through. He said, “This is Richmond.

Remember we met a few days ago?” He went on about how he wanted to know me and why I didn’t need to worry about his dad because he knew about it and asked when I would be available for a date. I told him, “Good to hear from you but currently, I have a lot on my table. May I give you a call later and discuss this in detail?” I called his dad and told him about it. I asked what I should do about it and he said, “You two are mature individuals. Can you resolve this without bringing me in? I have a lot on my table right now and wouldn’t like to be involved.

Yes, he likes you. He has told me about it and I’ve told him you’re a good woman. That’s all I can do with this. Please deal with it.” I had a date with Richmond. He was such a nice guy who had a plan for me even before I said yes to him. He went straight to the point. He wanted me to be his girlfriend. He mentioned that his dad spoke so well of me and it was the reason he didn’t want the opportunity to slip. To be honest with you, had it not been his father, I would have dated him in a heartbeat but I had to be careful and assess the situation very well. I didn’t want to set a war between dad and son.

I told him I was going to think about it and give him a response. A few days later he called. Not long afterwards, he came to the office to see me. He told me he was waiting for me to close so he takes me home. I was torn between emotions. “What’s happening here? Is that a setup? Is that a test of character? How do I go through with this?” I rushed to his father’s office and told him, “Your son is here. And no he didn’t come here because of you. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

He came to take me home. What should I tell him so he stops pursuing me?” He smiled and said, “I’m way beyond your generation so I don’t know how you guys handle situations like this. In my time, we say no to people we don’t like. I don’t know how you do it now.” I went quiet. He asked, “Do you like him?” I was honest enough to tell him that I do. “I’m struggling with all this because of what we have going on. It’s not right and you’re also not helping the situation.”

He told me, “Then go out there and tell him you have a man so you can’t date him unless of course, you want him to bring you home to come and meet me, the man you’re dating.” I went out with Richmond. That night I told him I was seeing someone else and it was serious so I didn’t want to give him fake assurances. He was gracious enough to accept my situation but said, “I will still remain a friend. At least give me that chance to be close.” I nodded and ended the night.

All night I couldn’t sleep. This is a gentleman I can have myself. He ticks the boxes. From what I know about him so far, I can say he’s considerate and courteous. He doesn’t give up easily and from all indications, he would wait in the shadows for his turn with me.  What I don’t know now is how to deal with this situation going forward. I started withdrawing from his father. He asked if I was doing it because of his son. I said I was doing it because he wasn’t making things easy for me. Right from the beginning, I was expecting him to close access to me by telling his son something.

He didn’t do it. He left it to go too far—far where I got exposed to his son. That’s what’s keeping me awake at night. I think about the situation and ask myself what I’d gotten myself into. Richmond will call me on the phone and talk to me as a friend who wants to share my troubles with me. He would ask about my day and ask if there was something he could do to make things better. His dad on the other hand doesn’t care about me that much. He talks to me only when we are at work or when we travel.

When he travels alone, I won’t hear of him until I see him in the office. I’m not comparing. I knew it from the start before I got myself involved. I know somehow I can’t have Richmond. It will take a miracle for us to have something that leads anywhere but I can’t stop thinking about him.

Somedays, I feel like I should tell Richmond the truth and see how he would handle it. He sounds like someone who can handle the truth very well but you won’t know people deeply until you test their character.

I’m confused. The road ahead of this thing looks bleak but I wish I could have a fighting chance. No, his father isn’t married. He has been single since his wife died five years ago. He won’t marry me that’s for sure. I wouldn’t marry him if he asked me. But Richmond, I would do it without a blink. What should I do?

Published

When Clint Eastwood sat in her section, she had no idea her world was about to turn upside down.

Mia adjusted her apron, glancing at the clock above the diner’s counter. It was nearing 7 p.m., the time when the dinner rush usually tapered off, leaving a slower pace to wind down her shift. For most, the little diner tucked off the highway was just a pit stop—a place to grab a meal before continuing their journey. For Mia, it was her lifeline. At 28, she balanced long hours here with raising her six-year-old son, Jordan. Each tip and every paycheck went toward keeping their modest apartment and paying for Jordan’s growing list of school supplies. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

She moved gracefully from table to table, her warm smile a shield against the exhaustion clawing at her. The regulars knew her story, or parts of it. A few would slip an extra dollar or two when they could, but Mia never asked for sympathy.

Little Girl Was Living Alone In A House After Her Parents Died. Her New Neighbors Saw This –

Published

This is the story of a teenage girl who found herself alone in a rusted, weathered house after the death of her parents. But when new neighbors moved in, something extraordinary happened one night.

Lily Miller, an 18-year-old, woke up in the middle of the night. She couldn’t sleep, her mind filled with memories of her parents, who had tragically passed away in a car accident six months ago. Ever since that day, Lily had been living by herself in the house her parents built in a quiet area on the outskirts of California. Although life was tough, she was determined not to end up in an orphanage. With that resolve, she decided to look for a job…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

However, finding work proved to be more challenging than she expected. Days turned into weeks without success. Then, one morning, while walking along a sidewalk, Lily stumbled upon a wallet lying on the ground. She picked it up and noticed it contained a large sum of money. Without hesitation, she sought out the owner and returned it to him.

“Thank you so much. It’s rare to meet someone as honest as you. How can I repay your kindness?” said the man, introducing himself as Mr. Roberts.

Lily hesitated but eventually shared her story. Deeply moved, Mr. Roberts offered her a job at his restaurant. Lily accepted his offer with heartfelt gratitude. She worked hard, and it wasn’t long before Mr. Roberts grew fond of her diligence and sincerity.

Lily continued living in her parents’ house because it was close to the restaurant. One night, she noticed that the door to the house next door was open, signaling that new tenants had moved in. The following morning, before heading to work, Lily decided to visit and introduce herself.

When she arrived, the door was slightly ajar. She was about to call out when a thin, pale little girl appeared. Lily felt slightly uneasy but managed a smile.

“Hi, I’m your neighbor. I noticed your door was open, so I came by to say hello,” Lily said kindly.

A young man standing just behind the girl stepped forward and greeted her with a warm smile.

“Hi, I’m Andrew, and this is my younger sister, Emma. It’s nice to meet you,” he said. “I’ve been making some food for my mom; she’s really sick.”

Lily’s heart softened as she realized the siblings had to stay home to care for their ill mother. After chatting for a short while, Lily excused herself and headed to work.

That same day marked an important milestone for Lily—her first paycheck. At the end of her shift, Mr. Roberts handed her a brown envelope. Excited, Lily opened it but was surprised to find more money than she expected. Confused, she went to his office to thank him.

Mr. Roberts smiled kindly and said, “It’s all right, Lily. You remind me of my daughter.”

His voice was calm but heavy with emotion, and tears began to roll down his cheeks. Lily was taken aback. She didn’t understand why he was crying, so she later shared the incident with a coworker. That’s when she learned the truth.

More than 20 years ago, Mr. Roberts had a daughter named Maria. After a heated argument, she ran away with her irresponsible fiancé. Despite searching for her, Mr. Roberts never found her again. Years turned into decades, but his grief and guilt never faded.

Hearing his story filled Lily with empathy. That evening, as she walked home, her thoughts shifted to her new neighbors. She knew life wasn’t easy for them, so she stopped by a store to buy some food.

When Lily arrived at their house, Andrew and Emma were surprised and touched by her gesture. For the first time in a while, they had a nutritious meal. Later that night, Andrew opened up to Lily. He shared how he, Emma, and their mother had moved to this town, hoping for a fresh start.

“Our father squandered the family’s savings on alcohol and abandoned us,” Andrew explained. “To support us, my mom worked tirelessly until her health deteriorated. The doctors said she needs surgery, but we don’t have the money. I would get a job, but I have to take care of her and my sister every day.”

Lily felt a deep sense of pity. She realized she wasn’t the only one going through difficult times. For a moment, she was at a loss for words. Then, looking at Andrew with determination, she promised to do something to help his mother.

Andrew, unsure of what she could do, simply nodded.

The next morning, Lily went to Mr. Roberts’s office, her eyes brimming with tears. She explained her neighbor’s situation, describing the urgency of the mother’s operation, and then asked for a loan.

“I’ll pay you back little by little with my salary,” she said earnestly.

The elderly man listened quietly. After a long pause, he spoke in a calm voice.

“I’ll help this poor woman. I know what it’s like to face such struggles. Don’t worry; I’ll have my manager transfer the money directly to the hospital’s account.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Lily was overwhelmed with gratitude. Unable to hold back her emotions, she hugged Mr. Roberts tightly. The old man, moved by her kindness, wiped away tears as he embraced her in return.

That night, Lily couldn’t wait to share the good news with Andrew. However, when she arrived at their house, she found Andrew and Emma looking distraught.

“My mom’s really sick, and we need to take her to the clinic,” little Emma said, her voice trembling.

In that moment, Lily knelt down to Emma’s level and smiled. “It’s going to be okay,” she reassured her. “I found the money for your mom’s surgery. She’ll be fine soon.”

Emma’s eyes lit up, and the siblings hugged Lily tightly, their faces filled with relief and hope.

True to his word, Mr. Roberts transferred the money to the hospital the very next day. A few days later, the doctors performed the operation. It was a success, and their mother’s health began to improve steadily.

Feeling immense gratitude, Andrew accompanied Lily to Mr. Roberts’s office to thank him. As soon as Andrew stepped into the room, his expression changed.

“What’s wrong, young man? Is everything okay with your mother?” Mr. Roberts asked, his face showing concern.

Andrew hesitated. “I don’t know how to say this, but I think I’ve seen you somewhere before. My mom gave me a photo before her surgery. Let me go get it.”

Andrew rushed home, retrieved the photo, and brought it back to show Mr. Roberts. When the elderly man looked at the picture, his face turned pale, and he clutched his chest.

It was a photo of himself as a younger man, standing beside his wife on their wedding day—a photo that had disappeared the day his daughter left home.

Overwhelmed, Mr. Roberts turned to Andrew and asked, “What’s your mother’s name?”

“My mother’s name is Maria Smith,” Andrew replied.

Lily gasped in shock, covering her mouth as Mr. Roberts moved closer to Andrew and embraced him tightly.

As you might imagine, Andrew was confused. But after hearing the owner’s heartbreaking story, everything became clear. His mother, Maria, was the long-lost daughter Mr. Roberts had been searching for all these years.

When the truth was revealed, Mr. Roberts wasted no time visiting his daughter at the hospital. The moment he saw her, he was speechless.

“My God, sweetheart, is it really you? It’s been so long. I’ve missed you so much,” he said, tears streaming down his face as he hugged her tightly.

Maria, recognizing her father, began to cry as well. Holding his hands, she apologized, and he did the same. In that moment, they reconciled, their years of pain melting away.

Mr. Roberts realized then that hiring Lily was a blessing. After so many years, she had reunited him with his daughter and introduced him to his two grandchildren.

For Lily, her bond with Andrew grew even stronger. Over time, they continued to see each other, and a few years later, they got married—a union that brought immense joy to Mr. Roberts and Maria.

At their wedding, Mr. Roberts stood up to speak.

“Who would have thought that a chance meeting could change my life forever? I don’t believe it was a coincidence that we met; I think it was meant to be. You might think I’ve done a lot for you, Lily, but the truth is, you’ve done far more for me than you could ever imagine. Thank you, and welcome to the family. I’m so proud to call you both my family.”

And so, Lily’s life, once marked by loss and loneliness, transformed into one filled with love, family, and new beginnings.

The waitress was fired for saving the old man. But his son showed up and did IT! –

Published

The usual bustle reigned in the cozy restaurant on the corner of a quiet street. Customers enjoyed their food, and waiters scurried between tables, serving food and drinks. Among them was a young girl named Anya, a kind-hearted and sympathetic waitress who always tried to help every visitor.

That evening, her attention was attracted by an elderly man sitting by the window. He looked tired, and at one point, his face contorted in pain. Anya noticed how he grabbed his chest and immediately left the tray with the order, rushing to him.

“Are you okay?” she asked, kneeling down next to his chair…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

The man could barely answer. His breathing became ragged, and his skin turned pale. Without wasting a second, Anya called an ambulance and tried to calm the man down, holding his hand.

But her noble deed did not go unnoticed by the restaurant administrator, Ivan. He flew up to the girl, seething with anger.

“What are you doing?!” he shouted. “You have work to do! Visitors are waiting for their orders, and you are doing nonsense! It’s not your concern!”

Anya, stunned by this reaction, tried to explain: “But he feels bad! He needs help, and this is more important…”

“Shut up!” Ivan interrupted her. “You’re fired! Pack your things and leave!”

The girl, having difficulty holding back her tears, returned to the utility room to change clothes. At this time, a man entered the restaurant, whose appearance changed the entire course of events. It was Alexey Vladimirovich, the owner of the establishment. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Seeing him, the administrator immediately rushed to him with a greeting, but Alexey’s attention was attracted by the picture: the doctors who had already arrived were helping his father—the same elderly man whom Anya was helping.

“What’s going on here?” Alexey asked sternly.

The doctors explained that if it had not been for the prompt reaction of the young waitress, the situation could have ended much worse. Alexey turned to Ivan.

“And why do I hear that you fired her because she saved my father?”

Ivan began to make excuses, but the owner was adamant. “You’re fired. Take your things and leave.

Anya,” he turned to the girl, “come back, please. And… if you don’t mind, I would like to offer you the position of administrator. A person like you deserves better.”

Anya, stunned but happy, agreed. Since that day, the restaurant has changed. With the new administrator in the person of Anya, it has become an even cozier and more sincere place where people came not only for delicious food but also for warmth and care.
