I am the only child of my parents. My mom is an house wife but a perfect dad's personal assistant too. She always keep things up to date. 

She knows what, when and where the things are happening and will happen. My mom had done MBA. Because of which she sometimes help dad in business too.

My grandfather died, when my dad was young. My grandmother raised my dad with so many difficulties and hard ship. But she always says it was worthy because of which your dad struggle too much and build up everything by his own and I agree with my grams.

My grams is my heart. She loves me a lot and the little secret I love her the most. I can't say it loud because when ever mom here this she becomes grumpy and it takes too much effort to convince her.

As now I am helping dad in business. He wants to announce me as is heir soon but before that he wants to make sure, I'm ready for it or not. But if you all ask me, I'm hell nervous.

I can't be like my dad. I mean how can I be him when he is so perfect in every aspects. Dad let me handle a new deal which is between griffins and goldbergs. 

Well, I heard about goldbergs. They are cold-heart enough when it comes to business. Dad says they are too strong. It will be foolishness if we make them enemies in business. 

I was getting ready when grams entered. Yeah today dad held a huge party as it's their wedding anniversary. All dad's business partners, friends and relatives are here.

"Ready my boy" grams asked. I applied little perfume then wore a mask and turned towards grams.

"How do I look" I asked grams in which she smiled towards me and said "today girls will die when they see my little prince charming" 

I chuckled and kissed her cheek. "Let's go before someone gets here." I said to grams and we both left the room.
