" hey loser, come here." a husky voice came from behind as Michael roy was walking towards his college class. his morning mood faded in the air instantly.
Michael nodded & looked in the direction of a voice. He sighed & went towards the voice.
The man in front of him was John Kent who was one of the richest businessmen of the city, Mark Kent's son. He was college's most arrogant character & Michael's classmate.
" You useless piece of trash, You were supposed to give my money back today. Were you running away from me just now?" John asked loudly.
"No..." Michael couldn't say more. Seeing five or six most influential boys of college in front of him, he can't afford to say much.
As a very poor background, Michael worked very hard by doing part time jobs & night shifts. He got admission in a reputed college for management studies on his own. But with a very old grandmother as his only family & high rates of college fees of a reputed college, he was always behind on money. After paying fees for the 1st two semesters, now he didn't have any savings on his sleeve.
Last week when Michael's grandmother got ill, he had no money to buy prescribed medicines for her. As a poor guy who wears old clothes in such a college, obviously he didn't have a single friend. Despite nobody ever wanting to be friends, he always tried to help everyone in academics as he was god in study. yet because of his poverty these rich students kept distance from him when it comes to friendship.
So, after getting rejected for getting money from 3-4 classmates somebody advised him to go to college's richest boy John. "He would definitely help you as he never disappointed anyone." Michael sighed & thought " Most of the guys & girls from this class spent 500-600$ per day just for fun but can't even land him 300$ for his grandmother's medicine?"
Michael went to John as a last hope & when he saw John giving 300$ immediately from his pocket, he was overjoyed.
"I will return the money next week".... Michael said with a smile..
" Of course you have to... but you have to give 600$ back next week".. John said in a cold voice..
Michael was stunned.. how would he be able to return double the amount in a week... he had no other option but to nod. He felt pity for himself & tears rolled in the corner of his eye. I have never done anything wrong in my life & always help everyone. then why i have to suffer a lot?? he thought while walking away.
Today was the day Michael was supposed to give John 600$ back. As he couldn't arrange the money, he was afraid.
“Poor Bas***d”, If you can’t pay even 600$, how can you stand & study among us? We all have such a high status in society. How do you dare to even talk with us then?” John was determined to insult Michael in front of the whole college.
“ I know these kinds of poor boys. They just want to become friends with John & take advantage of him.” one of John's friends said.
“ look at his clothes. He wears 2 pairs for a whole month. I feel disguised looking at him.” another one said while twisting his mouth.
“ I want my money right now. If you can’t give it, I will make sure that you don't get your degree completed from this college.” John said furiously.
“ Please don’t do anything. I will pay your money by evening for sure.” Michael pleaded in a trembling voice. He knew what John was capable of & all his future was dependent on this degree. His dream of making money & paying the hospital bills for an operation to cure grandmother’s cancer will be ruined.
“ Let him give till evening’s time dear. I felt pity for him”. Beautiful voice came from the side. It was John’s sister, Susan Kent who was standing by her Mercedes Benz car & listening to them till now came & said.
Susan Kent was one of the most beautiful girls of the college & was in her last year. She was tall , had long slender legs & a gorgeous figure which can make one die for. Many boys have an eye on her but nobody has dared to even talk to her as she was Mark Kent's daughter who can make anyone disappear & also she was also very arrogant who humiliated everyone because she was very rich.
Michael looked at Susan. He had a crush on her since he saw her on the first day of his college but didn't care to go for her as he wanted to concentrate on his studies. But whenever he got chances, he always stared & filled her face in his mind to enjoy her beautiful face.
However….. A Slaaapppp…
Suddenly, a slap was planted over his cheek by Susan ....”how dare you stare at me? You can’t even afford to see at my heels.”
“ You Jack a** Now you have to pay 1000$ till evening as you have offended my sister. You have until the evening otherwise you will be out of this college.” John said in a decisive tone.
Michael was so worried. He was humiliated first & then was asked to pay more than three times of the original amount. How will he be able to pay this amount? 1000$ was not a big amount for other guys , but for Michael who couldn’t even get 10$ ice cream in childhood because he only had a grandmother who didn’t have any money on her, it was a huge amount.
Michael walked out of the college gate with heavy feets. He couldn't afford to attend the class now as he has to arrange a lot of money in a half day. Finally he planned to go to a pizza shop which was nearby where he worked part time as a waiter. He wanted to borrow money in advance if the boss was willing to give.
Michael entered the shop & went straight towards the manager's office. Mr.Elliot, The manager just came out of his office & saw Michael.
“Why are you early for a job?” he asked.
“I….need payment in advance.”Michael replied hesitantly
“What?? You fu***g moron, how dare you ask for money in advance? You are just a part timer here. I won’t give you a penny.” Mr.Elliot said in a loud noise arrogantly.
“I haven’t ever asked to pay advance before.i m asking now as it is urgent sir.” Michael said politely.
“You poor guys disgusted me.just get out & come for work on time.you people never want to do any work & just look for money.” Mr.Elliot replied in a cold voice.
Michael was getting angry because he always worked more and got cut in salary & never said a word. But somehow he kept his calm & said…”But Sir…”
However… a slap!!!
“How dare you argue with me? This is my brother in law’s pizza franchise & I'm firing you right now. Get lost & never show me your face again.” Mr.Elliot angrily said
“You have no right to hit me like this sir.” Michael was also angry now.
“Is that so? Security!! Show him what i can do…” Mr.Elliot shouted loudly.
2 tall security guards came & one of them hit blows to his face & chest & they throw him out on the road.
Michael felt disappointed. All his future seems to be ruined. He can't go to anyone as no one in this city would have landed him money.. feeling depressed of his condition & suicidal thoughts , he walked towards his home.
however, something is about to change.............
Michael reached Marium street, which was one of the poorest & dirtiest streets of the city. But as very small houses are here & available at a cheaper rate, a lot of poor people were living there. His rented house was also here.Michael entered inside his home & saw his grandmother was resting on a bed. Even though she was sleeping, she was not comfortable partly due to pain & partly due to the condition of the bed which was too bad for use.It was a house that had 1 hall which was used as a bedroom, a kitchen & a bathroom with an attached toilet. There was not much furniture either. Just 2 old chairs & a small table was there. There was a fridge which was not in a working condition. After entering his home, One would easily presume how much bad condition Michael was in.He closed the door & was about to sit on a chair to think what to do about money. But his grandmother suddenly woke up by vo
“Mike, r u coming or not? We're getting late for class.” Emily shouted from outside.“Yes, just a sec.” reply came from inside.It was the 1st year of undergraduate college. Mike & Emily met on the first day of the college & instantly connected. They had similar interests. They both came from poor families & focused on studying hard to get success. Both were scholars from their respective schools & front benchers in the class. Emily was impressed by Michael’s looks & smart answers. Although he was poor, she thought she would have a great future with him.About Emily, she was a beautiful girl with great curves at the right spots. As she was poor & couldn’t wear expensive clothes or style her hair or any makeup, her beauty would not be recognized easily. She often stood in front of the mirror after bath & praised her beauty by herself. After seei
Without waiting for an answer, Jay held Emily’s hand & took her to the dance floor. Emily felt a current passing through her body as she felt his hand. She couldn’t resist him & walked with him.When couples started dancing to his favorite tune, Michael was about to stand to go to Emily & ask her for a dance. However he saw Emily going to the dance floor holding Jay’s hand. He felt disappointed. It was his fault as he didnt know how to express his feelings for her. Otherwise she would be walking with him to the dance floor. He sat back to his chair & saw them starting to dance.Jay put his both hands around Emily’s waist & started to move to the rhythm. Emily was hesisting. So Jay held her both hands & put them around his neck & started dancing.It was the most beautiful feeling Emily felt in recent times. She had received so much respect tonight. She was
May I come in Sir?” Michael asked at the entrance of Dean’s office door.“Come in” A husky voice came from inside.Michael entered & stood in front of Mr.Crowley, The dean of his college.“Who are you? & what do you want?” Mr.Crowley asked arrogantly.“Sir, I am a 1st year student of this college.I am here to request you”.Michael said in a pleading voice.“Request? What do you want?”“Sir, I come from a very poor family background. I have paid my whole academic college fees somehow. Now I can't pay for e-learning fees.so I request you to exempt me from paying that fee.”“What? No way. Who are you? You are just a poor ba****d. You can’t even afford to wear shoes & want a special treatment? You are not a VIP. if you can’t pay the fees, leav
After dinner, Emily was in her bed trying to sleep. It was almost 11 pm but she couldn’t sleep. Stress of arranging money won’t let her relax a bit.Suddenly her phone vibrated.“Hello beautiful.” a message pops up on her screen. It was Jay. she saved his number last time. She was in a bad mood. She felt broken & left out both by Michael & her dad today.“Won’t you ever reply?” another message came.Emily needed someone right now.& she was comfortable with Jay. so she decided to have a chat with him.“Hi Jay. how are you?” she replied.“Ohh, so you haven’t forgotten me. That’s good for me. I am fine. How’s you?” reply came almost immediately.Emily felt her heart rate racing. She felt different while talking to this guy. But how did he get her
Meanwhile Michael was also in so much stress today. His visit to Dean didn’t go as planned.Now, he had to pay these fees,otherwise he won't be able to study further & all his future plans depended on this degree.He was so much in thought, he didn’t realise when his nani came in his room & put her hand on his hair and pampered him. She said “Mikey.”“Yes Nani.”“I was calling you from the kitchen for dinner but you didn’t hear it.what are you thinking about,Mikey? Is there any problem?”“No Nani, don’t worry. I was just thinking about my study.Nothing that i can’t handle.”Michael tried his best to cover up.“Ha ha...don’t think much.Health is more important.Let’s go and eat.”Nani said.“Sure Nani.I will be there in a minute.”
Phone vibrated as Emily was getting ready in the morning. She saw it was Jay’s call. She immediately received it.“Hello.““Hi Emily, I am outside your house. Are you ready?” A humble voice of Jay came from the other side.“Give me 5 minutes. I will be there.” she only could say that.When Emily came outside, she saw Jay standing out of his BMW & his eyes were looking for her. When he saw her, he waved his hand with a smile. He thought she was looking so gorgeous even in these clothes. Emily wore a routine t-shirt & jeans. But it was revealing her amazing figure.Emily came towards him & said hii.Jay opened the car door for her & asked Emily to sit.Emily was surprised as well as feeling excited. She never expected that A rich man like Jay would open the car door for her.S
“True. He can’t afford such a reputed college.” one guy said. “Out Michael out. Out Michael out.” all started chanting it. Michael couldn’t believe his ears. He had a habit of being humiliated by everyone. He didn’t mind that much now. But how can Emily say this about him? He was her boyfriend after all. Why was she suddenly changed? This was not Emily that he loved. He decided to talk with her after college in the evening. He sighed & left the class. But there was one person who was even more surprised & shocked than Michael. It was Andria Nilson. She knew Michael & Emily were good friends. Although she didn’t know about their relationship yet, but She predicted that by their behaviour. Something was there between them beyond friendship. How could she suddenly talk about Michaerl like this? Why did she humiliate him? Was that because now she has become a hot topic amongst all peo
It was such a big office. Beautiful view of hills was evident on full length glass windows. Aroma of flowers could make anyone’s mind very refreshed. There were lots of antiques & costly furniture present. A beautiful painting of a feather of a peacock was noticeable behind the boss chair. Sunlight coming from the window was revealing all the beautiful colours of that painting. It was indeed an amazing view. Jay was standing near the windows looking at nature’s beauty outside. “What do you want?” Jay asked without looking at them. “Look Jay….Sorry, SIr Mr.Brown. I wanted to apologize for yesterday’s events.” Michael said. “No need for that. I don’t care what people say about me, if they are just losers.” Jay replied. “Please Mr. Brown, forgive me for just this one time. It was my mistake. I will never come in your way again. Please don’t resticate me from the college.” Michael asked in a
May i come in,sir?” Michael asked.“Yes, Come in.” Dean said with a satisfied look.“Here.. take your leaving certificate. You have been resticated from this college with an immediate effect.” Dean gave the certificate in Michael’s hands & was smiling.“What?” Michael was stunned. His whole world started to go upside down. He was so shocked that he couldn’t stand anymore & sat on a chair in a disbelief.“Sir…..What is my fault? What did I do to deserve this? I have even paid the fees.” Michael said in a trembling voice.“I know that. It was a big boss’s decision. Get out now.” Dean replied.“Please sir,don’t do this to me. What will I do? I have no money to go to another college. My life will be over. Forgive me sir. I am begging you.” Michael
Are you out of your mind? What were you thinking? Do you even realize what you have done?” Andria asked Michael after dragging him into the class.“Why do you care? I decided that today whatever happens, I will make Emily realize that Jay is a bad guy.” Michael said. He was still very angry.“You don’t know Jay very well. He is so rich that he can make your life very difficult just by a call. Also Emily is under the influence of him. She will not listen even a word about him from you.” Andria replied.Michael tried to calm down. He realized that Andria was right. But moments of Emily kissing Jay kept coming in front of his eyes. He was broken completely. She was her only & true love. Did he just lose her? Tears came in his eyes. He loved her so much. How could she do this to him?“Look Michael, I know I am not your very good friend. Still I am giving you
Classes were over. Michael stopped Emily just outside the class.“Emily, What’s wrong? Why are you ignoring me? I already told you sorry many times now for that day.”“Nothing’s wrong. I just don’t want to talk with you. You disgust me.” Emily said in a cold voice.“What? After being with me for so many months, why do you disgust me now? It’s my poverty that stings you,isn’t it? I even arranged fees for you.” Michael was hurt by her words.“Haha, so you are lier too. It was me who arranged my fees not you. Just go & don’t try to talk with me again. I feel ashamed of myself that I used to be with you.” Emily said angrily & went away.“Now she’s feeling ashamed of talking with me.” Michael sighed.While in the car with Jay today, Emily’s mood was
Next day, Michael was waiting for Emily to go to college. Although his mind knew that she wouldn't come, his heart was not willing to accept that. He waited for a long time. Then he realized that it was already very late. If he did not start to walk now, he would definitely be late. He sighed & started walking towards the college.“Beep...Beep…” suddenly a car stopped behind him & started honking.He saw that it was Andria. It was a black Mercedes Benz car. Andria came out of the car & said: “Hey loser, let me give you lift.come inside the car.”“It’s ok. I will go by myself.” Michael replied.“Look at the time idiot. You won’t reach in time. Do you want to get insulted by the teacher again?” Andria asked in surprise.She was right. Michael looked at his watch. There was no way he would reach college i
