"Damon!" Jimmy cheerfully greeted his visitor, whom he had asked his doctor to call.
He had always seen himself in this young man during his youth. He had the impression that Damon was the same as him. Ambitious, determined, and a workaholic.
Like him, his young apprentice also built his father's business into the leading market with one thing in mind.
To be the best and to be on top.
"I am glad you came." He genuinely appreciated that Damon had made time for him despite his friend's busy schedule.
Suddenly, he thought, maybe they were not the same after all. He remembered if it was him, he would have found an excuse not to come.
He could never count how many times he had missed his family's special moments. Birthdays, Anniversaries, Graduation, School activities, all the occasions he had to say sorry because he had other priorities.
