1 The Boy who has it all

Han Sen was a boy of about seventeen years old, in his adolescent years. Next year, he was scheduled to take his higher secondary exams. His height and weight were five feet eight inches and sixty-five kilos, respectively.

Further, he will be saying goodbye to school starting in the following year and pursuing his higher education at a well-regarded city institution. Being from one of the wealthiest families in his city, he was a young lad who lived like a king.

Additionally, his mother served as the CEO of one of the largest corporations in the city, and his father was the town's mayor. They had a lot of connections and influence, and as a result, Han Sen and his pals benefited from the same.

It was seven in the morning, and he had to leave for school. Everybody in the family used to get up early in the morning since his mother had to go to her office and his father had to go to his government office to finish up his obligations as city mayor.

"Sen come quickly, breakfast has been laid on the table," his mother called from downstairs. "If you don't have some before boarding the school bus, you risk being late."

"Coming Mom two minutes," Hansen uttered.

Over the next few minutes, Hansen was having breakfast at the dining room table with his parents.

Being six feet tall and extremely attractive, his father exuded confidence and charm. As the city's mayor, he was highly respected by the public for his significant contributions to the city's growth.

His mother, on the other hand, was a very lovely woman with a sophisticated aura since she was the CEO of a large corporation, yet she was a loving mother and wife to her husband and son.

At this moment, his mother was helping her son eat the basic chapati with French fries for breakfast while also enjoying breakfast with her son and spouse.

His dad exclaimed, "Darling! Why do you continue to feed our son? After all, he is already an adult, having turned seventeen already. He will get spoilt if you give him too much affection. Allow him to carry out his tasks as well."

Anna, who m was the other of Hansen, said: "Steve don't act like that since you already know I like to feed my son even though he can eat by himself but this is just a motherly affection."

Steve chose to ignore Anna's argument and asked Hansen, "Son, next week is your birthday. Are you planning a party with your friends or would you like to spend time with us and go on a family picnic with us?" Steve rolled his eyes because he could not win an argument with Anna on this matter.

They had a large number of guys, servants, and chefs to help with home chores, so hosting a party was not a problem. The size of their home was so great that the locals called it the "City Palace."

Hansen's friends wanted to attend the party at his house, but even as a teenager, he always wanted to spend more time with his parents because he loved them so much.

Hansen answered, "I love having picnics, so of course I would like to go on one with you guys, Dad." I do not doubt that it will be a memorable one."

With that their little family conversation was over as the breakfast was done so Bharat went to catch his School Bus.

Hansen took the school bus to school primarily because his parents wanted him to interact with other kids so that he could have his circle of friends, even though he came from a wealthy family and could have taken his transportation or driven in his parent's car.

Furthermore, he agreed with his parents' choice because, over many years of routinely riding the school bus, he had become friends with every student who did so, including some who were not in his class.

Even Bob the school Bus Driver was a very good friend of his and used to gossip with him with all smiles even though Bob was not a very talkative person and sometimes could be very strict with the other students.

Hansen waved to his parents Goodbye and boarded the school bus with enthusiasm since his every ride to school was always fun.

Because everyone treated him like royalty on the school bus—he was always given the front seat, which was also the most comfortable—and the most attractive females would join him, sitting next to him even if they weren't in his class.

Everybody wanted to enjoy the company of the attractive girls around them, but they were powerless to stop it, so the other boys used to gaze at him with jealousy.

Not only that even the other boys on the school bus wanted to be on good terms with Hansen. Since they knew that he was one of the young masters of a well-to-do family and his parents held high status in the society.

"Hey Bob, how are you?" said Hansen.

The driver, Bob, answered, "I'm fine. Boy, how are you?

"Fine Bro, I believe we are taking the usual route to school right or do you have something else in mind and would like to let our young selves enjoy the Bus Ride some more after school," said Hansen.

The driver, Bob, answered, "Nah we cannot afford to take any other route as we are pressed for time to deliver the consignment after we drop the students to the school. So we will go to school directly today."

Another Boy said: "Oh come on Bob. You take us around the city for a trip every day so that we can enjoy ourselves since we come ahead of time and have a lot of time before the school assembly starts so why do you have to be in such a hurry today."

The driver, Bob, replied in a strict tone, "You don't order me, boy. Here, I'm not obligated to do what you say. Thus, be silent and take a seat in the corner as assigned."

The particular boy was startled by the driver's strict tone as he forgot that the driver was usually very strict with everyone apart from Hansen.

However, at the next moment, Hansen replied and calmed the driver with his soothing words: "Bob leave him out of this as I was the one who always asked you for this extra ride every day however since you are so much pressed for time you do not have to bother with this today. You can just drop us at school and complete your delivery of the consignment that you have."

Bob was grateful to him since he never wanted to deny Hansen however since this time was necessary he could only request this to Hansen and promised a trip around the city on a different day.

And with the conclusion of the situation they reached school after fifteen minutes.

After reaching school Hansen went for his class as he had reached school fifteen minutes early today he wanted to meet up with his friends and spend some time with them. 

Since he was not only famous on the school bus but also in his class almost every classmate of his looked up to him not because he was a bright student of any sort but because of his family background. Nevertheless, he was himself a bright student as well who scored good marks in exams.

But everyone knew that all his classmates wanted to be on good terms with him due to their family background since it showed in their behavior. Because apart from Hansen there were other bright students as well in his class like him or better than him but they only had a set of selected students and would roam in groups, not like Hansen with whom almost all his classmates liked to mingle and even the girls.

Since his classmates were like that to him he also reciprocated their gesture by giving them treats on many days since he never had any lack of money thanks to his background.

As soon he entered the class his friends welcomed him warmly and surrounded him in a manner like the bees surrounding the flower to have its nectar.

One of the boys said: "Hey Hansen! Great to see you so early."

Another boy said: "Yes why are you so early today?"

A Girl said this time: "Leave him guys can't you see he just entered the class let him catch his breath first."

Another student said: "Sure settle down first on your seat but we are curious to know what happened for you to turn up to class fifteen minutes early rather than a bit late. Since even the teachers of the school do not say anything to you for coming late. As we all know you like to travel the city a bit in the morning for the view and like to come to school through a longer route than usual and even the Bob the Bus driver is fine with this small arrangement."

Hansen replied: "It's nothing important guys. This time Bob had some urgent work of his which he needed to adhere to so he could not entertain us this time. However, that is fine since I do not want someone to incur losses or failure just for my entertainment purpose."

Though Hansen was from a high-class family and a young master of his generation. Still, he was not a Heartless person and wanted to only help others. It is just that since he had not seen the ways of the world he was naïve to think that all his friends or the people around him favored him only because they love him for example Bob the driver. Hansen thought was one of his friends on his request the driver used to take a longer route so that the children could have a Bus ride across the city however still he had a little bit of an idea of what was going on in his surroundings.

Once the class settled down all of them sat surrounding Hansen as he was the main point of focus at that point of time and teachers had not arrived yet.

Hansen was used to having this kind of treatment in his class as he felt like he was some kind of prince.

Hansen said: "Guys today I will be giving the cafeteria treat to all of you guys since next week is my Birthday."

One of the students out of curiosity asked Hansen: "Your Birthday is next week right so why the party today?"

Hansen replied: "Because on my Birthday my parents are planning to take me somewhere so I won't be present with you guys."

Another student replied: "This is not fair we need a party from you at your home."

While the discussion was going on the class teacher entered and the whole class became silent.

Thomas Edison was a class teacher who was very strict and punctual and always reached his class on time. He was the only teacher who did not treat Hansen differently and used to look at every student with the same love and care and even punished them if required Hansen was no exception.

It seemed like Mr. Thomas never cared for Hansen's extraordinary background and used to give him honest feedback due to which even Hansen was very grateful as he had very less people who used to give him honest feedback and almost everyone had never told him of his mistakes or never used to admit that it was Hansen's mistake even if he makes some.

So he used to treasure these kinds of people a lot since it has helped him to improve on his skill levels. So Mr. Thomas Edison was one of his favorite teachers.

Mr. Thomas said: "Good Morning class. Hope everyone is doing fine."

Class replied in unison: "Good Morning sir."

Mr. Thomas was a science teacher in particular and used to teach exciting subjects. So the class was very sincere to him.

Mr. Thomas said: "Class today we are going to discuss something different in this class the center point of the discussion will be science however a bit different than the normal days. Do you guys believe in paranormal activities or to be more direct in Ghost?"

One of the students replied: "Sir there are no such things that exist in this world as per science and as a science student we should not believe in such things."

Another student said: "Sir I agree with my friend here since as per science anything that is not proven does not exist."

After the first two students, there was a volley of replies from the students and everybody denied the existence of Ghost.

Then the Professor replied: "What if I tell you otherwise? What will you guys say if I say there could be an existence of the Ghost as well and Paranormal activities are as real as they get."

The students looked confused as they were wondering what the science teacher was saying and even Hansen looked confused a bit.

Mr. Thomas continued: "You guys are correct in saying that science only believes in what is proven. However, science also asks questions like "What if" and there is nothing impossible in science. So you do not have to believe in something right away however do not rule out the possibility of it as well and continuously ask questions about its existence and that's the approach you should take."

With that, the period bell rang and today's class was concluded.

After completing school Hansen returned home early as the next week his parents were planning to take him on a picnic for his Birthday.

After all, it would be just perfect to spend time with his family because Hansen valued spending time with his family more than anything else.

When he got back home, he was overjoyed because they were leaving the station to go to a secluded location with their family where they could spend quality time in nature and see stunning mountains, lakes, rivers, animals, and birds in addition to delicious food.

His parents were already back home preparing for the trip and asked Hansen to pack his belongings which he would need since the trip would be a week long as they would go to someplace out of station and in the jungle that's what Hansen knew however exactly where that he did not know since that was surprise.

Anna Hansen's mom asked him: "You must pack extra T-shirts and jeans and some casual wear so that it can last you for a week as we will be going into the wilderness and are planning on a safari trip and would like to picnic in the jungle this time."

Hansen said: "Yes Mom do not worry I will pack up all my necessary stuff."

Hansen was surprised to know that he was going on a wildlife safari since till this time he only knew that his parents were taking him on a picnic but exactly where he did not know.

Hansen further asked: "Mom if we are going for a wildlife safari for a picnic then are we not going to book a hotel and live in a hotel?"

Anna replied: "Of course not use your common sense since we are going for a picnic in the wilderness out of station so there will be no hotels but yes first we will get into a hotel keep our luggage in the foreign state and from there we will finally move to our destination. We will have to cook our food and stuff so it will be a different experience for all of us and I promise it will be fun."

 Hansen said: "Mom I have a bad feeling about this I don't know why but if you are saying that's fine then."

Later his dad also joined them in packing up for the trip to finish quickly before they had a light dinner to sleep early since they had to get up early the next day.

Then, the Next day they readied themselves and it was quite easy for them to prepare since they had so many servants in their home and the caretaker so they arranged everything for them and then they went to the airport to catch the flight.

With that the family of three finally landed in the foreign nation they unhoarded the flight and went to check their booked hotel as per their plan since as per the schedule the first night they would stay at the hotel and then they would hire a guide to visit the wilderness so that they can guide the family safely into the wilderness and return.
