The Family Man
*~*Part two*~*
"DADDY!" Matt was awakened to the voice of a young girl with strawberry blonde hair, bright green eyes; wearing a pink nightie and carrying a stuffed rabbit. "DADDY!" she shouted again,
"Huh?" Matt shook his head to clear it. "Who?--" He turned to his left to see a young lady with chestnut hair buried under the covers
"DADDY!" The girl was getting more and more cross.
"Who's your daddy?" Matt asked confusedly, the comment drawing the chestnut-haired woman's attention.
She sat up and looked sleepily at Matt, the latter immediately recognizing the mature features before him. "Mimi?"
"Yes...oh, where's Josh?" Mimi climbed out of bed and walked over to the door. "Matt, stop messing around! I know it's Christmas but I don't think Mellie can wait any more" Mimi looked at the young girl lying with her head falling off the bed, "Melissa, where's your little brother?"
"Asleep," she replied, and with this the girl fell of the bed.
A puzzled Matt got up and walked dazedly down the stairs, leaving a confused Mimi and happy Mellie. iWhat on Earth is going on? Am I dreaming?/i He opened to the door and came face to face with Mimi's parents, Julia and Robert. *that's not right if you know there real names tell me! * "Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Tachikawa! What are you doing here?"
Robert slapped Matt on the back playfully "its Christmas!"
An equally confusing reply. Matt sighed and leaned against the window, staring out at the drive way. "Wait a minute...iWHERE'S MY PORCHE?!"
"Are you joking, Matt?" Julia asked as she put her presents under the tree, giving him a strange look.
"Give me your keys!" Matt demanded.
"What about your own car?"
"Robert, just give him the keys to that land rover!" Julia sighed.
"Fine." The man passed the keys into Matt's clammy hands.
The blonde ran outside and got into the car. Mimi had run to the door "MATT! MATT WHERE ARE YOU GOING?" she shouted at the back of the car,
In his wind mirror Matt could see Mimi chasing after him. "I don't understand," he said out loud. "Mimi..." The car turned the corner and headed for New York City, leaving the chestnut-haired woman behind.
Matt arrived outside his office block soon after. He got out of his car and and just stared at the building, walking slowly towards the door and the man beside it. "Hi, Mick."
"Excuse me sir, do I know you?" Matt ignored him and walked over to the lifts. "Sir, it's Christmas Day. No one is allowed in the building."
"Mick buddy, it's me, Matt."
Mick gave him a hard stare. "Who? I'm sorry, sir, I will have to throw you out if you do not leave that lift."
Matt fumed and slammed his hands down on the desk. "I'm the only who pays your salary! I AM THE OWNER OF THIS COMPARY!"
Mick just looked lost and confused. "Sir..."
Matt looked up, the Board of Employees catching his eye. At the top, where his name should be, there was a woman's name in his place--Kim Robertson. Matt stared in disbelief. "I can't take this anymore! iWhat's going on!?/i Clenching his hands into fists he ran out of the building, letting the door slam shut behind him.
Matt decided finally to go home and sleep. This was all a bad dream--no, not a dream, a nightmare! However, reaching his home in the tower block, Matt walked into a big man.
"Excuse me sir, but only people who live here are allowed in!"
"But I ido/i live here..." Matt spotted Mrs. Teasdale walking through the lobby. "Mrs. Teasdale! You know me! We chat in the lift about our sex lives!"
The lady looked at him like he was trash. "Excuse me? I'm sorry, but I do not!" "
I live here! I'm the richest person in this building!"
"Sorry sir, you are not allowed in here, are you on any medicine?"
"NO!" Matt screamed, suddenly spotting his Porche! "OI YOU, GET OUT OF MY CAR!"
The window rolled down to see the same man he had been talking to yesterday. "Get in Matt!"
Matt jumped into the car, "You know what's happening, don't you!? Tell me what's going on! What did you do to my life!?"
"I didn't do anything, you did it all."
The man's composure was starting to infuriate Matt. "Where's my life!? Where is my old life, I want it back! How do I get it back..!?" Matt started to lose it.
The man passed Matt a paper bag. "Breathe in here, if you're going to be sick! Roll down the windows and throw up out there!"
"How do I get back!? Answer me!"
"I can't tell you that. Just live through this, you will find your answer!"
"TELL ME!"
"Breathe!" the man told Matt. The car rolled to a stop in a quiet neighbourhood. "I know, Matt; why don't we get out, have a nice long walk and talk about this!"
"Fine." Matt climbed out the car, slammed the door and off the car went leaving Matt in a cloud of smoke. "OI! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE WALK!" Matt cried in fury.
A brown-haired man jogged up to Matt, clapping him on the shoulder. "Matt! I just had Mimi on the phone saying you ran away, what happened?"
"Huh? Who are you?"
"You know me! I'm Tai, your best buddy!" Tai led Matt into his house, babbling about how worried Mimi had been. Matt stared at some framed pictures of himself and this guy called Tai, bowling.
"I bowl?"
"Yes, we're on a team. Did you hit your head or something?" Tai looked at Matt, perplexed.
Matt sat down suddenly, overwhelmed.
"So what's up? Is it Mimi?" Tai pressed.
"Mimi?"
"Oh wife problems, huh?"
"She's my wife?!"
"Yeah," Tai sighed. "back there missing you. Do you want me to take you home?"
"Sure, its not like I can get out of this nightmare" Matt moaned
"What?"
"Nothing" Matt sighed.
Matt entered 'his' house to see Mimi crying on the phone "Yes, officer, no....he's...no..." Mimi looked up and spotted Matt "Oh my God, he's here!" She slammed the phone down. "Matt, where have you been?! First you leave without telling me where you were going! And then you missed Christmas morning with the kids!" Mellie came in on her new bike and rode into Matt's feet, giving him a big smile. Mimi continued her rant. "You took 6 hours putting that bike together last night and you missed her face...she loved it." Mimi looked at her feet, trying to wipe her teary eyes. "Get dressed, we still have to go to Kari's. I've been so worried I could barely think."
"I'm not going any where," Matt told her indignantly.
"We do this every year! You love going to the Christmas party, what's wrong with you!?" Matt glared at her. "Fine, if you don't want to go I'll call and cancel my mother."
"Why?"
"You can baby-sit the kids."
"I'll come!" Matt didn't want to be trapped in this strange house for one minute longer. He ran upstairs to get changed. "My God, look at these clothes..." Matt pawed through the drawers. "This is disgusting!" He finally picked out a plain white shirt and a tie "I'll guess this will have to do," Matt sighed aloud, and began to get dressed.
To be Continued.........
