Chapter 4 - The Show Must Go On (Pt. 2)

Alexander was totally high over the drugs because of which while Robert was talking about some serious business stuff with him. He continued bluffing around & continuously asked for more alcohol & drugs. This attitude from Alexander on a very important day like that totally put Robert under great stress. Then also Robert kept a hold over his temper & made sure he talks calmly with Alexander. But after a long time of control & tolerance test when Robert saw that the view of Alexander over the problem is just casual as before Robert lost his temper & ended up thumping Alexander by holding his shirt's collar to the side wall where they were talking. And after thumping Alexander over the wall Robert told him in a heavy voice.

Robert: You bastard! How dare you play on me? Do you think I'm dumb?

Alexander Wilbert: No, no, leave me! All will be okay.

Robert: Just mark these words! If you cause any more damage to my company then you are just dead. Next day newspaper will print down that " Condolence to Famous pianist Alexander Wilbert".

Alexander Wilbert: Hey, stay cool Robert. You know that I don't fail with my piano.

Robert: Till now that's true. But looking at you today I don't think so.

Alexander Wilbert: Just believe in me. I'm going to another level of heights by today's performance.

Suddenly Alexander's big brother Rick Wilbert came inside the room out of the blue. Rick got surprised by the scene he saw inside the room that Robert was holding Alexander's collar. Seeing that Rick asked both of them.

Rick Wilbert: Hey! What going in here?

After hearing this to cover the matter Robert suddenly told to Rick Wilbert.

Robert: Oh this! I was just motivating him for his concert tonight.

Rick Wilbert: Really, it looks something is off.

Robert: Oh, its nothing as you are thinking. I told you I was just motivating him for the performance.

Rick Wilbert: Then it's okay. I thought you both were fighting.

Robert: Oh, how did you get here? Who told you that Alexander is here?

Rick Wilbert: Oh, that! That! I just heard from the workers who were working here.

Robert: Okay. Then I should leave then. You guys talk now.

Rick Wilbert: Have you gave those tablets to Alex?

Robert: Oh! I just forgot about that. Alex take these medicines before you go for the performance its some vitamins & some hangover medicines.

Alexander Wilbert: Okay, I'll have it.

Robert: No, I know you will forget to have it later. Just have it in front of my eyes itself.

Alexander Wilbert: Okay, then. Hey, Rick just hand me that water bottle. Please!

Rick Wilbert took the water bottle which was kept over the table & passed it over to Alexander's hand as he said.

As told by Robert, Alexander took the medicines & got over his bed for some rest. As Alexander was doing all these activities Rick was standing inside the room with Alexander smiling till that time.
