The Other Brother

A Story by Abishai100
"

Are family negotiations always direct?

"
An inventive 'family-values' portrait, set in Hawaii (USA).

MR. AMLAN SATAN: "This is great, a Hawaiian pad with my Wall-St. earnings (Ford), a beautiful wife, a gorgeous daughter, another gorgeous (adopted) Hawaiian daughter, and a life worth living, and adding there' no sign of my dark and estranged evil twin brother Ajay (wow)...Facebook like."



Amlan had it all he thought. He had it all and got his daughter an animalia-chess set to teach them to think brightly and work on his dentistry practice in gorgeous Hawaii after making $!5M on Wall-St. during the 2009 mini-crash. However, he had one bad memory from his past, his evil estranged twin (Ajay Satan) who was about to pay him a very bad visit in the islands of the West (hmmm).



AJAY: A millionaire dentist, sounds like the kind of joke for comfort-food TV>
AMLAN: It is; in deed, I've become a great American and I love Hawaii, Ajay.
AJAY: Nervous to see me now in your island heaven, Amlan?
AMLAN: I didn't want to contend with your consciousness, Ajay Satan.
AJAY: I made a small fortune on an upstart racer-company (Arklow).
AMLAN: Horses and bread for Mr. Satan, my evil-twin.
AJAY: I thought you'd empathize...and one of your daughters loves me.
AMLAN: Chelsea, my adopted Hawaiian daughter...this is why I hate you!
AJAY: Look, I just want to make a Facebook tale of twins who've won money.
AMLAN: Damn.



Ajay Satan took-off with Amlan's (adopted) Hawaiian daughter, perhaps to become cross-country driving bank-robbers armed with handy-dandy pick-up guns (American). Amlan was devastated, and it's why he insisted Ajay shouldn't have sought him out, but his dentistry practice (millionaire-status) made him a micro cyber-culture celebrity.



CHELSEA: Look, I'm home.
AMLAN: What the Hell did you do (with Ajay)?
CHELSEA: Everything.
AMLAN: Jesus; did you get hooded with the criminal mind?
CHELSEA: Everything.
AMLAN: Chelsea, we're taking you to a Catholic school (now!).
CHELSEA: Everything.
AMLAN: We'll get through this...all's you need is story-therapy.
CHELSEA: Everything.
