Here I am posting A Glimpse Of My Fiction: The first chapter of my first fiction.. ( On which I am still working)
Sophia, the only child of Richard D’Souza; a very well known
business tycoon and Sara D’Souza; a house-wife, wakes up at 7 in the morning.
When first ray of sunshine lightens her right chick, beautiful smile comes
automatically. The sun has always been the first one to wish her good morning.
She gets up and puts her legs down on a velvet carpet. And now it’s the time
for the servants. Their duty begins now. One for to get her the slippers, one
for to get her the overcoat, one for to get her orange juice and if she doesn’t
want juice and demands something else, then one servant is there to get that
‘else’. And that ‘else’ has always been coffee, a strong coffee. And she wants
coffee only if she had hit the bed so late the previous night. Generally she
likes to wake up early in the morning; she is rich but not a rich brat. She is
a regular, disciplined and sophisticated girl having a very generous nature. Though
she is called ‘Madam’ by all the servants, she is very humble and polite to
them all. One more thing about Sophia’s discipline, though she is rich and
richest among her friends, she has never got unnecessary things on demand. It
was Sophia’s parents’ discipline more than her. Which is quite surprising but
true. Her father’s only motto of his life was, “Respect the time and money. If
you don’t respect them, they won’t respect you.”
Apart from
being a little mischievous, she is mature enough to handle even difficult
situations.
Richard and Sara have never been “Rapunzel’s Parents”. But they want her to
live a disciplined life; well that’s the different thing that she is living a
princess life surrounded by half-dozen of servants who are only for her all the
time.
Sophia doesn't like people who show-off their high class. And that’s why she hardly
attends any society party or any business function.
Apart from
this, Sophia has her own world. She writes, sings, sometimes dances.
All the
relatives, friends, business partners and even employees think that after doing
MBA from the Oxford as per her family tradition, Sophia will handle her
father’s business, but she has never thought about this. She always says that
she doesn’t know what she wants to do but whatever she will do will be
creative. She has just finished MBA. It sounds funny to her that she would be
part of this corporate world.
Sophia was
never bothered about her career because her parents are very flexible about it.
But still Richard thinks that it would be appropriate if she joins his
business. Though the staff of his firm has become his second family now, and
till today, everyone has proven his trustworthiness, he still thinks that if
his daughter, his blood takes this responsibility, and then it would be better
than anything else. And moreover, he finds Sophia very capable and talented in
this field.
She has been
one of the top students in the Oxford. She has a very bright record as a
business student. So Richard’s hope and wish increased. But he had never shown
his eagerness.
