Trent went down stairs to grab something to eat, his father had not returned by late evening so Trent went on ahead and went to bed, and grabbed something to eat and went upstairs. He was sketching in his sketch book when he noticed it was getting late, he took some sketches that he had laid out picked them up and took them to his father's office, he put them in the folder that was sitting on top and went to bed.

The following morning Trent got up and noticed that there was a note on his nightstand;

Trent,

I noticed the drawings in the folder this morning, come to my office when your ready we need to talk some more.

Dad

Trent got up and put the note back on the nightstand. After finding a white polo shirt with a short sleeved black and white pull over, and tan khakis he combed his hair and headed for his fathers office, he looked in and his father was sitting at his desk signing some papers. Anton looked up when he sensed his son's presence.

"Good morning son."

Trent walked into the office and stood at the front of the desk, "Morning dad, what did you wanna talk about?"

Anton put his pen down and looked up at his son, "I noticed the pictures this morning..."

Trent got a bad feeling in his stomach, "Are you angry with me?"

Anton put his pen down and looked up at his son, "No, I am not angry with you, I did a lot of thinking Trent, and I now understand why you wanna make your own destiny. I am sorry for trying to force this on to you, you do know I love you don't you?"

Trent just looked at his dad, his father in the three or four years he has lived with him has never said 'I love you' before, Trent just grinned and said.

"Yea, I know you do dad, and I love you too..."

Anton looked up at his son with nothing but happiness in his eyes, in the years he has had Trent neither he nor his son have ever said 'I love you' to each other. Trent wanted so bad to ask his father to go with him to meet Carson Brady but he couldn't find the strength. "Dad, um, I gotta get goin, I am gonna go meet Carson Brady at the Cyber Cafe."

Anton looked questioningly at his son and asked "Who is he?"

"He is my inspiration to wanting to draw, he created all those magazines I have in those boxes in my room." Anton just grinned and said "OK son, I will see you in a wile."

Trent told him OK and left, later Anton was going threw some files and found some more pictures that Trent had put in there, he chuckled softly and thought 'I wonder if he would like to create a comic with Carson?' Anton picked up his phone and dialed a number, after speaking with the man for several moments he hung up and just smiled to himself. Later that day when Trent came home the phone rang, by this time Anton was in the kitchen making lunch, he answered the phone and it was Carson, "Trent! Phone!"

Trent stepped into the kitchen and asked "Who is it?" Anton just smiled and handed his son the phone, "Its Carson, he wants to speak with you." Trent nodded and took the phone "Hello? Carson?"

"Trent, I have great news! I just got a call from my publisher and he loved the comic that you helped me with, also he found some one to fund for a signing so how would you like to be there as the 'unknown artist'?"

Trent couldn't believe it, he was stunned at first, "Uh, sure, I-I mean of course I would like to be there."

"Perfect it will be Saturday at noon, at the Cyber Cafe."

"OK I will be there, see ya Carson and thanks again."

"No problem Trent, see ya Saturday."

When Trent hung up he was so stunned he couldn't move, Anton came back into the room, "So, what did Carson want?"

"He asked me to go to a comic book signing on Saturday."

"That's great son, would you like something for lunch?"

"Sure dad."

Trent and Anton sat at the table and started to eat when Anton's cell phone rang, "Hello?"

"Dr. Mercer, I just received word that you are funding for the comic signing on Saturday?"

Anton looked at Trent who wasn't paying attention to the conversation, "Yes I am."

"OK this is J.R Reese i am Carson's publisher, I was just calling to confirm."

"That's fine, yes I am gonna send it in probably either Friday or Monday."

"OK sir thanks a million."

"OK bye." Anton hung up and let out a sigh that Trent was still not paying any attention to what was just said, he wanted this to be a surprise. After dinner Trent went up to his room to do some home work, after wards he went to bed.

When Saturday arrived Anton made himself busy with something else so that Trent didn't suspect he was up to anything. While at the Cafe, Trent asked Carson who he had gotten to fund for the signing, when Carson said "Some big corporate guy, Anton Mercer I think was his name, seems like a good guy."

Trent just smiled and nodded, he was grateful but surprised that his father had funded for the comic and for the signing. When he got home hours later he went straight for his father's office, he walked in seeing his father was on the phone he waited patiently for his father to finish. Anton noticed that Trent was home and quickly finished talking to Carson, who was thanking him for funding. After hanging up he looked up at Trent who came the rest of the way into the room, "Dad, Carson told me what you did, I guess I am just curious, why did you fund for the comic?"

Anton got up and came around his desk to face his son "Lets just say I have had a change of heart." In saying he gave his son a hug and Trent said "Thank you dad, I appreciate it, I love you."

Anton let his son go and said "I love you too, and your welcome."
