"After twenty years is a short story with the theme of a sense of duty written by O.Henry. He introduces two characters in his story, Bob and Jimmy. Bob, is a money minded person, who goes behind money, he can do anything for money, has no family attachment and have no secure job for his future. But Jimmy is quite controversial to Bob, he is emotionally attached to his family, wants a secure job for his future, goes behind love and he needs money to live a secure life with his loved ones.
After twenty years they meet again. Bob had so much money, earned by illegal ways. He has a costly diamond scarf and a diamond watch. But he has no friends because he won’t stay in a single place. The police are searching to imprison him. Whereas Jimmy had a secure job with much savings, enjoying his life with wife and children and is surrounded by his loved ones. Finally, Bob is jailed for his illegal activities. A sense of duty mattered in both Bob and Jimmy’s life."
