Marcel Audrey the Greatest Equalizer

Chapter 4: Journey to the Unknown

Marcel was benumbed as he gapes like a moron with his eyes bulged out. He wasn't really sure of what he heard earlier from the man but in a way he felt kind of relaxed.

"Sorry sir but I don't get" Marcel asks in an unsure tone. He wasn't sure if he was in the right position to ask questions.

"Don't my Lord, please don't call me 'sir', I'm nothing but a loyal servant of yours" The man replied in a humble tone.

Marcel was taken aback by the man's sheer humility or should he call it a prank but which wealthy fella will have time to crack jokes with a poor lad like him.

"Sorry but I think you're mistaking me for someone else" He said skeptically

"No, you're Marcel Audrey aren't you?"

"Marcel Audrey, yeah I'm" He replied impulsively, at this instant he wasn't sure if his name was really Marcel Audrey.

"Forgive my impromptu manner, my name is Dr Phil and these are my colleagues who are loyal to you sir. Forgive me sir but I think you need an urgent medical treatment and perhaps after that you will meet my Sire" He said

Marcel wasn't sure of what to do, follow the strange people and believe their cock and bull story or stay put and wait for dawn, sure he is surely less than an hour from dawn.

Marcel just couldn't get himself to internalize those exalting words of a man that he believes can be an equal to Dickson Gilmore, Lancelot's dad.

In a twinkle of an eye he was helped inside the car, a car of anyone's dream. It was definitely his First time of being inside such a luxurious car, it was a precious gift for someone that has never graced such magnifico, someone that always has his ass on a cab or his work bike. He definitely did not want such a special moment ruined by his terrible state. He might stain the car with his dirty outfit and stinking body hence he wasn't really comfortable.

It was a silent journey but he had his eyes wide open, he just couldn't bring himself to trust some rich man that has done nothing but act weird before him in fact he doubted the man's sanity due to his unreal kindness.

On reaching the gate which above it was the name Audrey beautifully crafted on it. ' Am I dreaming or is this some sort of hallucination?" He asked himself. He opened his mouth wide open in awe as he pierce his eyes from the window screen. The mansion before him was out of the world. It was like some magic or fairy tale mansion owned by kings and queens.

He may be unwell but that wasn't enough to steal the opportunity of admiring such magnifico

The Greek gods would surely be the proponents of such unreal structure. Everything was on another level right away from the road leading into the building to the gate and then to the compound.

The flowers, the fountains, the statues and the arrangements were top notch. Credit should be given to any staff involved in making such a building come into place.

'Is this what this rich kids house looks like? No wonder they disgust him' He understood now that he deserved to receive ill treatments from these students.

He swallowed his saliva as they arrived at an entrance where some men and young ladies were lined up in grand style. It was like they were waiting for the coming of the Messiah.

They were dressed in a wonderful regalia, neatly and properly dressed. He needs no one to tell him that those were maids and house helps but he could swear that he won't be able to lace their shoes.

Somewhere in his brain he has started imagining what the Sire or whatever they call him will be like, he bet that he would definitely be a god. It is a huge shock for him to know that Dr Phil was second to someone.

They finally came to a halt and swiftly a group of dressed health practitioners emerged from the building with a stretcher. He wondered if there were hospitals in the building but he wasn't really surprised. To his chagrin he was injected with an injection, an anesthesia that sent him to the sleep world.

****

Back in Maryland University, everything was going fine, fine after three days of dragging Marcel's name to the mud. It was all over the University now, his poor and wretched tale was all over the University and other surrounding universities.

At this juncture there was no dignity left of him. Only very few people pitied him while the others backed Lancelot and Choley.

Allen [poor boy, bro thought that Queen Choley likes him]

Ruth [poor and gullible, I will give him a 5 star rating for that]

Clarie@10 [This poor peasants have definitely forgotten where they belong, kudos to our new couple for putting him to where he belongs]

Tim@l [Heard that he bought some tinny whinny gift for Choley, He's just disgusting]

Philemon [poor Audrey, bro lost his sanity because of a girl, though not any girl]

The comments were many but all were bashes against Marcel.

It is now a week since Marcel last stepped foot on Maryland soil. The reason behind that is what they don't know but trust people, there were many theories. Majority of these stories and theories claimed that he was ashamed of coming back to school. Some said that he is still terrified of the Gilmore family while others thought that he has already committed suicide. .

All said and done, someone like Marcel surely won't consume their attention or time. It was the least thing that bothered them after the first three days. They can't waste their invaluable and crucial time on some trivial thing, just like that everything concerning the Audrey boy was swept under the carpet and he became a thing of the past.
