.. WE decide where it goes from here.” He said seriously, and so began my father’s story.“I don’t remember being born, or growing up, or havin...g a mother, or a father for that matter. One day I was just there. Much like you see me right now. I’ve never been young, but with a little work, I can appear to be on either side of middle age. Say 30 to 55. I found that I speak dozens of languages and have many skills when I need them.”“In the early years, I just wandered believe it or not. I don’t. You know why I put this film on. So you and I can have a romantic evening. I mean I got the impression that you thought you didn't mean anything to me and here I was thinking I can prove you wrong and that I do have a more loving side!!"

Yes little thief I am, or I was, the man yourgrandfather knew as Parsin. Of course, a lot has changed since then,especially in me! It's a pity your grandfather rejected the offer ofthe infusion of Inus energy, and chose to flee. I would have liked tohave had him with me, as my "sister" in servitude to Dambalo. He wouldhave had a long and happy existence. Very, very long...!"Amal added, "But sadly, the power of the infusion does not always. I hoped she liked what she saw. Very nice she said, the agency has done well for me. Would you like a glass of wine? I drank my glass of what was actually a very nice wine slowly, and hadn't yet finished it before she said it was time to go to the dinner.Anyway, the dinner went fine, it was the usual corporate fare, but during the dinner I felt her hand on my knee a couple of times. I didn't mind, I was her arm candy after all, and once reiprocated (and she smiled), but she brushed my hand away.
