295 No tomorrow for her
As Sebastian disconnected the call, David sat in his car for a while. His call with Sebastian had converted his whole evening all grim.
Sebastian Walker, the man who was a synonym for the heart of iron had begged in front of him!!!
For a moment he couldn't fathom in the wildest of his dreams that the conversation had happened for real.
He was a man of deception, a con artist who could buy and sell in millions with just his tactful words and that's what had made him one of the most successful businessmen. So David was unable to understand if his request was really genuine one or he was playing with his emotions. He was clearly aware that he had a soft corner for Raymond, so he was concerned if he was just playing with him, just to make him request Raymond to do the things which he wanted, so he was a bit skeptical.
But since it was a matter concerning Raymond, he couldn't take his chances.
It was clearly obvious that there was either something deeply disturbing and hidden within Sebastian's concern which was something apart from his son's illness or he was just messing up with him. But hearing his panic-stricken voice, he was inclined to think that it was something more than that, but something that was only known to Sebastian Walker.
He knew he had to figure it all out.
Thinking about it, he returned back home and retired to sleep.
He needed to rest his head so that he could focus next to figure out what was so wrong with Raymond being together with Akira.

Soon after Sebastian disconnected his call the next day morning, he called up David in the wee hours, waking him up from his deep slumber.
David checked his clock and was surprised to see him calling at such an ungodly hour.
"Hello, David".
"Hello Sebastian, everything all right?"
"Well, that depends on whether you completed the task that I gave you yesterday".
"Sorry I do not understand Mr. Sebastian".
"I think I didn't make myself clear enough when I told you about the seriousness of the situation".
"No, it's not like that. I will talk to Raymond today and ask him to stay away from her. I thought about the whole thing that we talked about yesterday, and I will do my best to persuade Raymond".
"What is the point of doing that when he has already decided to get back on with her".
"What? Who told you about it?"
"I have my resources. But that is not the point. I think you don't want your friend to have a peaceful life. Imagine what will happen to him, when he gets back with her but the next day he gets the news that Akira isn't there in the world anymore? Will you be able to handle him? What will happen when he gets to know that the blood of his fiancee was actually smeared on your hands?"
David listened aghast to his monologue, unable to utter a single word, for his shrewdness and atrociousness was right now beyond his imagination.
"What happened? Are you not able to find words to describe how you slacked with the one task that I gave you?"
"Didn't I warn you enough yesterday? With one snap I can get that girl out of my way, but I thought that I can get it done all amicably, like adults, without getting my hands dirty. But now you are forcing me to play by rules of my game".
His words were becoming all scary now.
Gulping his spit, David said,
"I can set up everything right Mr. Sebastian. Please just give me some time. I will call up Raymond right away. I will set everything all right. For the sake of her, he stayed away from her for so many days and you know that, so to keep her safe I don't think he will hesitate to back off. You can trust me on this one. Please don't do anything which might make your son hate you even more".
Hearing his speech, Sebastian laughed hysterically and then said,
"You think I am scared that my son will hate me? You think for all these years I haven't learned to live with his hate?"
"I didn't mean to put it in that way", David replied all meekly.
"You will never be able to understand the power of the love of a father David. I can do anything and I mean ANYTHING to keep my son safe. And if you don't believe that then try me".
"No Mr. Sebastian, please don't misunderstand me. I will take the matter into my own hands now".
"I give you one day's time David. If I see them together again, then there will be no tomorrow for her and I give you my word on that David. I will make it happen".
