I walked into a bar one evening and sat down making my orders for my drink type . Soon what i ordered for was brought right on my table.
I was seeping my drinkand pressing my phone when two guys walked in and sat down ahead of me.

One of the putting on a blue jacket and the other a black jacket. They made their orders and soon what they requested was brought right to their table.

" My brother made a promised to our parents that he was going to take good care of me before they passed away . My brother has money . He deals on cars, Com on bro. you know my brother too well don't you ? " the guy on blue jacket asked.

" I know your bro. Bro " his friend replied. I was seeping my drink and at the same time paying attention to their discussions.

" I got admission into the polytechnic but my blood brother, refused to assist me as he promised.

Guy, it took me three good years to get that admission . But it all went in to tin air. Every passing day I worked so hard to make sure I had something to eat. I hardly fed in my own brothers house .

I had no choice than to leave his house for him . It been 2years we haven't met . Though he has been calling me, asking for forgiveness . But I ain't gonna forgive that bastard he ruined my life .I don't think he's worthy to be call a brother because of his deeds and actions . bro" the guy on a blue jacket spoke , As tears rolled down from his eyes.
I was touched from where I was seated . I took my glace of drink and went and sat with them . They all glanced at me in amazement.
" I heard a little bit conversation you were having with your friend. I was just like you bro " I spoke out as I seeped in my wine a little .

"Listen to my story bro!

" When my dad left my mom to die , I hated him . I hated that man so much . One day, this man on his dying bed in the hospital he called me and asked me to forgive him menh . He gave me his hand to shake showing him a sign that I had forgiven him . But you know what I did? I refused giving him a hand . I just had to let him die and rot in hell .

To cut the story short he said ; " am sorry Ben. For everything " that was the last word I heard from him as I angrily left the hospital . But you know what ?
I regretted everything I said to that dying old man . I would've taken his hands , I would've said something nice to him . He was the only one I had as a family . Maybe if I had taken his hands and said something nice to him maybe he would've been alive for me today .

I don't know you bro , but all I gat to say to you is to go home and reconcile with your brother . He is the only brother you have " I said to him , As I drank the last drink on my cup and walked out of the bar.

Always find a way in your heart to forgive someone . No matter what it is, . If I had forgiven my father, maybe my life would've turned around today.
