As Sai, now John, was mapping out his scheme, the door of the bed room was suddenly flung open and a woman who looked like she was in mid 30s walked through the door. She looked quite beautiful and had the characteristics of a South American living in the USA. From John's memories he knew she is his nanny, Valentina. She was hired after his birth. She basically saw him grow up from an infant and love him equally like her own son.
After John's birth and death of his mother, Valentina looked after him for all his needs. After his mother's death his father flung himself to work to forget the pain of loss and John was handed over under the care of Valentina.
"John, are you alright? I heard you screaming. Is this one of your nightmares again?" Valentina asked him worriedly after coming inside.
"No no Val I am fine. Just had an exciting dream about something which is going to turn into reality soon. This world is so beautiful." John said with grin. "Val" that's the name he calls her by normally.
Valentina was confused by what he meant but she didn't care. It was 8 in the morning.
"Your Dad is waiting for you at the breakfast table for you. You should go." Val continued.
"Yes I have lots of things to tell him." John said. Even though he wasn't close to him but being his Dad he has some understandings.
"Hi dad. Good morning." John said after coming to the table. His dad was having his breakfast which had eggs and sandwich. John realized that due to the merge of memories from the previous self, his accent was a perfect American. It helped him avoid the change of accent from his previous self.
Though he couldn't figure out how his consciousness took over the previous owner but he guessed it is probably because of the system which helped him take over the body without any particular hindrance.
While joining his father for breakfast he was thinking of the system and how to propagate the works of animation and movies to the world to acquire the fan value. As for games it can be shelved for later period of time as the technology of 2001 won't allow him to show his ideas on the games. Even though John played many games in his previous life he wasn't a gaming nerd and has very less ideas about games.
Val served him his breakfast and while eating he started formulating ideas for his future plans and action and how to gain a foothold in this new world.
" Dad I have a business proposal. Would you like to hear me?" John asked his father.
" Business proposal? what kind of proposal? A kid of your age has busniess ideas that you want to share with me? Well that's a nice joke." Jameson said with a hint of sarcasm as he was pretty sure a kid like John wouldn't have any good ideas that can influence him.
"You will be surprised Dad. Don't worry! In a few days I will give you a story with avid drawings. If the story and drawing is good, promise me that you will help me make an animated movie." John said with confidence.
Jameson was surprised by what he just said. He looked at his son and felt odd. It was as if there has been a change in his attitude but he didn't give much thoughts to it. "You kid even know how to draw? I have never seen you take drawing classes. And what kind of story a kid like you is going to create?"
"That will be a surprise for you. Trust me Dad I can draw and you will see it soon. Just promise me that if you like the story you will help me make an animated movie." John said.
"I don't have that much money to sponsor your such weird fantasies kid." Jameson said.
"Dad please. I know you have such a huge company and you also have connections of Hollywood. Just this once introduce the story to a producer and a director." John pleaded
Jameson looked at his son and said, "Ok fine kid if you can create some good drawings and a good story, I will consider".
The truth was, Jameson couldn't help but feel a pit of guilt in his heart every time he looked at his kid. He couldn't take care of him much when he was little, but recently he couldn't help but feel like he should do something before it was too late. Letting out a deep sigh he knew that no matter what his son came up with he would at least give it a try. Maybe this would help make up for how things were just a little bit. Besides, it's not like it would do anything harmful, and he deserved a bit of creative freedom.
After finishing the breakfast he got ready for school and his father who was already in his iconic suit, left for work after saying his farewells to his son and Val.
John now has a lot of work to do in the upcoming days and he already has a plan in his head. Since he is 11 years old he has just enrolled into the middle school.
As soon as he left home, he could see tall buildings and wide streets with cars everywhere. In his previous life he had always wanted to come to New York and travel around the world and now if he can become powerful enough, let alone travelling the world, he can travel to the far reaching universe.
The weather outside was quite pleasant and it felt like he was back in his old city. But he knew that New York even receives snow and his old city of Bengaluru never had such luck in this regard. He really thanked the gods for giving him another chance with life and looking forward to what the future holds for him.
