"How is this possible?""How could someone splurge that amount of money in the blink of an eye?""This is definitely not real.""Who is he?"Though the men were distances apart, yet the incident had them connecting in words and shocks. Ari still couldn't find his words. He just pointed at Damien. "You..."Was all he could say. But if he had his way, he probably would want to disappear at once from the level of humiliation he was feeling at that moment. "50 trillion!!!"The lady exclaimed. She was having a hard time believing, too. It was obvious from the collective reactions that none of the people present in the hall was prepared for what Damien had just done. WHY DO YOU THEY LOOK SO STUNNED THOUGH? DID I OVERDO IT AGAIN? HAVE I UNNECESSARILY BROUGHT ATTENTION TO MYSELF AGAIN LIKE I DID WITH THE GIFT?Damien could only imagine. Even though he was feeling that he might be doing too much, yet there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't possibly take back what he had said.
Almost walked out of the building and saw the lady standing next to a Rolls Royce. He was going to walk to her when he heard someone call him from behind. He turned. It was the same man. "Do you mind telling me your name?"The man asked. He gazed at him for a while. He looked the man from his head to the toe. "You don't look like someone who should know my name."Damien said coldly, then walked away. The man stood there, staring in defeat as he watched Damien go. It was the same spot where he had snubbed Damien. Perhpas Karma does have a thing for efficiency. When he got to the Rolls Royce, the lady bowed slowly and opened the door,"You shouldn't do that all the time."He said to her and got in. She shut the door and walked to the other side. She got in and started to drive. While she drove, Damien was trying so hard not to look at her. If he did look at her, he feared that he would say what's in his head, which was,I WANT TO FUCK YOU. Of course that would be rude. The old Dami
"What were you thinking?!"A middle-aged man dressed in caftan and a black head tie on his head yelled at a lad who was on his knees. Ari. "Are you out of your goddamn mind! Huh? Are you?!"The man halted at his front. Ari was kneeling next to a pool. His back was to the pool. Just one kick, he would go flying into the pool. "Were you not using your brain? How dare you steal my green card? How dare you? Do you want me to cut you off from every of the benefits I've let you enjoy?"The brows of the man were furrowing. There was no doubt that he was drowning in the stream of his own rage. His eyes were red, and his face was tough. "Why are you yelling at me?"Ari suddenly answered. The man gasped in shock. "Yes! Why are you yelling at me, pops?"Ari seemed to be ready to give it back, but he was reluctant to get back on his feet. "Did you even see the guy I was contending with? He was about my age. I have no idea how he did it, but I'm very sure that it must have been his father or
"Were you harsh to them?"Walking into the living room, the lady from the game hall asked Damien. Damien raised his head. There was excitement in his face. He had been waiting for her. "The way I left them seemed heartbroken. Did you say any bad words to them?"It seemed as though she was unwilling to let go of the conversation. As though her next line of actions would be confined to the answer that he gives. "I did as you asked me to. You gave me the exact names to follow. I mean, I see no reason why you should have a misunderstanding with the---""Don't you think you are outstepping your bound?"Damien snapped at the lady. She was stunned by his response. From her reaction, it was obvious that she could never have thought that he would respond to her in such a manner. "Whatever I do is for a reason. Are you trying to tell me that I don't know what I am doing? Do I have to consult you before I make a decision for myself?"There was an edge to Damien's voice. The lady dropped on he
"Stop crying, that's enough."Jada sniffled, looking at Evelyn, whose face was already heavy from the tears. Her eyeslids were swollen, and her cheeks inflated. Her eyes were red, and her face was exhausted. "He called me a grandma."Evelyn burst out crying again. She was crying as though she was mourning a deceased. There was so much emotion in both her voice and demeanour. "He called us a joke."Each word seemed to fuel the emotion. The more she talked about it and thought of it, the emotional she was. And the more reason she had to cry. Even harder. Jada got up from her position and walked to her. She sat next to her and pushed Evelyn's head into her chest. She started to caress it. Gently petting her. "Shush. That's enough. Stop crying, or you would fall sick."Jada advised. Evelyn slowly piped down on the tears. It was only the fading sounds of tears that were heard. No more wailing. "That jerk. He sent us out naked. How could he do that to us?!"Elisa said, gritting her tee
Damien didn't have a hard time finding Charles. He saw Charles trying to help an old woman bear her burden. Watching him do that alone spread a deep smile in Damien's face. He waited for Charles to be done. Immediately, Charles was done, and Charles turned to walk away. But then he noticed a man standing not far away from where he was. "It's you! Kevin. It's you."He was excited as he hurried to meet Damien. "Who is that?"Damien asked as though he was just getting there. Charles looked in the direction,"Oh, she lives not far from my place."Looking back at Damien,"Do you wanna go to my place? You should come and see. I have some things I could offer you."Damien could turn the offer down, but because of how kindly Charles smiled and seemed. He nodded. "Very well then, what's the dignity in saying no?"Charles led the way,"What are you doing in my neighbourhood, though? Or do you live around here? That would be strange because I've never seen you around."Charles said. Damien c
Damien picked up the shopping bags. He didn't even care that there were people going on their daily businesses. ZOOM. He thought, and off he went at a great speed. "I'd be damned."The cab driver couldn't believe what he had just seen. His lips were dabbling in shock. He was so shocked that he couldn't even turn the wheel of the vehicle anymore. Damien caught up with Charles. Charles was panting, both his arms supported by his knees as his body was pushed towards the earth. "How did you f-find me?"Charles was almost out of breath. Damien, who didn't feel a thing, walked closer to him. "What's the matter? Why did you run away? What are you not telling me? Why are you so scared of the BMX girls?"Damien didn't hide any of the questions that were pacing his mind. "Who are you to ask me those questions? Don't you think you are overstepping your bound? I can do whatever I want to do. You don't have the right to question me!"Charles became so defensive that Damien was speechless.
"Arrggh! Why did I do that?"Charles stopped walking. He was dragging his feet towards his bungalow. "Why him of all the people? He was a very nice person to me. He didn't deserve that."He dropped the shopping bags at the door. "I'm such a cruel person. I don't deserve to see the light of the day."He started to hit himself in the face and on the head whenever his hands were deemed fit. "You shouldn't do that to yourself."A loud but strained voice came from behind him. He turned. It was the old woman whom he had helped earlier. "You shouldn't hurt yourself. That's the last thing that should cross your mind. No matter what the situation is, you shouldn't."The woman advised. Charles pushed his body forward in a low bow. He said no words. He walked into the living room and slowly shut the door. He walked straight to the chair. He sat on the side that the foam was a little much. He leaned back into the chair and sighed. Pushing his body back up, his gaze fell on the shopping bags
