Few weeks after Mr Jude was buried, Mr Jude's bank called Kingsley his only son to come and pay the loan Mr Jude collected before he died.
Kingsley was so angry, so after all the way his father talked and carried his bank account details like a treasure, he was owing.
Kingsley wanted to denial his father and run to where he came from. After all he wasn't based in his hometown, but it got worst that Mr Jude registered his name as next of kin.
Why didn't his father ask him for some money instead collecting loan, he knows he won't be able to pay.
He dressed up and went to the bank to know how much the loan was before thinking of how to pay it off.
He got to the customer care stand, explained why he came. They welcomed him and took him to another room.
When he got there he asked them how much his father is owing them.
They smiled and told him to calm down that they only did what Mr Jude asked them to do after his death.
They brought out a document for him to sign that he has collected the said money allocated to his next of kin the beneficiary.
Kingsley couldn't hold his tears as he allowed it to roll down his cheeks.
His father saved such huge amount of money in his bank account to be given to him and he thought he was causing him troubles.
