Extract:
He wanted to be cremated, and the only two people
present at his cremation were Suzy and his daughter,
Bindi. It was said that he wanted his ashes to be
divided into four equal parts and to be sprinkled over
New York City in New York, Yosemite in California, the
Himalayas in India, and the Serengeti in Africa. The
majority of his family members and relatives, including
his wife, Asta, and his son, Manu, thought that he may
have turned senile by the time he wrote those
instructions.
In the last few years, he had gone through a
metamorphosis, and it all happened after he met Suzy. He
didn’t publicize his affair or try to keep it a secret
from any one. For him it just happened and became a part
of his life from that day forward. His affair became the
“talk of the town,” so to speak, because no one could
understand the reasons why he fell for that kind of a
thing despite the fact that he had an excellent family
life and a promising career that paid a hand-some amount
of money. Most of his family members firmly believed
that it was just a mid-life crisis, and that it would be
over in a couple of years, but that never happened.
Strangely, he never asked for a divorce or changed his
devotion, love, and affection toward his family a bit!
His relatives were certain that it was his perfect cover
up, but he never bothered to explain or justify his
actions.
