37.Xenophobic Xenials Part-1

"Let me introduce you to my family."Akio said.Mark immediately agreed,after all he was going to meet his prospective in laws.He was led by Akio into the hallway,descending down the grand oak wood stairs.The hallway was heavily carpeted.A man,along with a butler came from one of the rooms.

"This must be his father."Mark thought to himself.He immediately bowed down to show respect.Akio noticed this and began laughing.

"Why is he laughing?"Mark pondered.He looked up.To his horror,the man was holding out his hand and was staring at him in disgust.He said hello to the man and apologized for his random mistake.However,there was no reply from the man.He signaled something to the butler and he spoke up,placidly.

"The master wishes to imply that he welcomes you and there is no need to apologize."

"Uh..ok.Then we shall take your leave."Akio said as he proceeded Mark back to the room.However,the butler said, "The master wishes to imply that he wants you to wait.Your friend can go."

"I know Japanese."Akio replied.Hence,he sat down on the couch while Mark returned to his room.

"Why did you want me to stop?"

"See,I don't care where you go and where you don't,just be in time before your brother,Hibiki comes back.I don't want any fuss between you both."

Akio's world had been shattered.He kept on hearing the echoing noise of that person's name,who destroyed his life.Since four years,he had been at peace because there was no contact between them but today,he was coming to their house.Which means he would see his face every day.Akio got up,rushed to Mark's room and locked it.His heartbeat raced and seemed as if it would stop.
