Nelly
Our argument thunders through the air, intensifying the throbbing ache in
my head. “This company is my life. It’s what our parents worked for,” I
counter while staring at my brother, Tom Sinclair, with a heated gaze that
doesn’t seem to faze him.
Tom is the only family I have left after our parents died in a car crash one
year ago, and I know he’s here because he’s just as worried as I am about
whether our parents’ aerospace company will survive.
“But there are other ways we can stay in the game besides merging with
some other company, Tom. We could take out a loan and … What about …”
I can’t think of any solution to resolve the problem, and Tom’s slightly
arched brow proves he knows that I’m stuck.
I have been running the company for two years. Our parents groomed me to
take over after Tom decided to pursue a career in law, and I assumed full
duties as the CEO of the company after their death.
Tom has been working in Manhattan ever since he graduated from law
school and married his sweetheart, Detective Robyn, and I began to work
closely with Dad to gain work experience after graduating from Harvard
Business School.
Tom has never been interested in business, but with the recent tide of
events, we both have to work together to keep the company from crashing.
A few months ago, an airplane using Sunny Aerospace’s engines crashed
because of an engine failure. The devastating accident has left the company
on shaky grounds, and the impending settlements are crushing us.
I think Tom’s idea of merging is dangerous. We could lose all control of the
company.
“What can we do, Nelly? When I first talked about a merger, you said we
could stay afloat and handle our own business. That was two months ago.
Now, we’re neck-deep in debt and lawsuits. We haven’t even compensated
the victims’ families, and there’s very little funding left to keep the
company running, even if we sell everything we own.”
I let out a frustrated sigh and rub the back of my neck to get rid of the kinks
there before averting my eyes from my brother.
“I’m trying to do what works, Nelly,” my brother says to me as he runs his
fingers through his black hair, then pins his auburn eyes on me again.
Tom has aged a lot, and he’s now a bit sterner than I recall. His jaw hardens
as he looks at me with those brown eyes that remind me of our dad. There’s
an aura of seriousness that clings to him now.
“Merging Sunny Aerospace with a company strong enough to hold the
weight of our fallout is the only way we stay alive. We sell some shares and
take on a new name. It’s that simple.”
My hands flail in the air as I voice my disagreement. “It is not that simple,
Tom. We can’t just cut our losses and sell out because things are rough. This
is Dad and Mom’s company.
