Looking down at the river below,he truly wanted to jump and forget everything, but thinking of his parents at home he dismissed the thoughts.
"It's been three years since I last saw mom and dad ; l don't how they're doing now, I'm really an unfilial son."Since graduation, Erwin had worked hard in this city with the foolish dream of earning enough to buy a place and marry his girlfriend, but now the memory of that goal seemed ludicrous.
Erwin pulled out his phone intending to call
his parents in countryside.However ,as he prepared to dial,he saw he already had a missed call, likely from his mother. Erwin quickly showed aside his sorrow, adjusted his mentality,and then picked up call, hearing again the familiar and warm voice on the other end.
"Son,how are you getting on in the big city? Are you facing any troubles?"
"Life's fairly smooth here, everything going well; my boss said he would promote me to director next month, and salary will double,"Erwin lied casually." You really don't have to work so hard; actually, we've hidden a truth from you for long time,and now I think I should tell you". His mother's voice rang out over the phone.
"What is it? just tell me, I'm listening,"Erwin suddenly became tense, worried that something bad had happened back home.
"Actually,our family is very wealthy; you are in fact the young master, and there's no need for you to work so hard to make money out there!" His mother's word carried a deep concern.
"Stop joking, Mom. I'm going to hang hang up now; l have to work work overtime today!" Erwin laughed, not taking his mother's word seriously. His parents were farmer; even a few tens of thousands would be lot to the
"No, Son, don't hang up, how can you believe what your mother is saying?" His mother's hurried voice came through the phone.
""It's easy to make me believe; just deposit one billion in my bank account, and I will believe you. Anyway,l have to go back to work, you should go rest earlier," said Erwin before hanging up. The cold wind made his heart grow colder.
He knew his parents could never have that much money; even if they sold everything they owned,it wouldn't add up to one billion so Erwin did not take his mother's word seriously at all.
However, not long after,he received a text message on his phone. Unconsciously , Erwin opened the notification,and to his astonishment, his bank balance had indeed been credited with 1 billion causing him to stand frozen on the spot.
Erwin,who glanced at his bank account SMS notification showing a deposit of one billion rupees,was utterly astounded.
"Could it be that what she said was true?"Erwin was filled with excitement,yet his common sense lingered and he thought it through.
"Just check it at ATM!"
With this in mind, Erwin hurried to the nearest bank and sprinted to the ATM machine. Upon arriving, his inserted his bank card form his wallet into machine.
