Tyler caught sight of his girlfriend bent by the wall in a doggy position with a guy thrusting deep into her from behind. They halted the act immediately Tyler barged into them. Thank Goodness it was meant to be a quickie. Charlotte only had her skirts rolled up.
"Charlotte!" Tyler exclaimed. His lips formed a silent 'wow', as he stood still like a mannequin trying to process everything. Moments ago, he was being bullied by Raul and some daredevils and he thought that was enough misfortune for a day, but right now - the word 'misfortune' has got a new synonym - Charlotte.Tyler tried to utter a word but only his inaudible blabbings echoed. His hands flew to his mouth in outright shock, as he watched the two fornicators disengage from each. The guy - who is a member of the football team quickly zipped his pants, sweat dribbling down his pale face. Charlotte rolled down her skirts. The frown on her face spoke volumes Tyler never expected.If it was some Disney movie, Charlotte should be on her knees, kneading her hands together pleading with Tyler. Obviously, she cheated. She cheated on a man who had been working his butt off to save up and buy her a befitting birthday present."......c..charlotte how could you do this?" Tyler muttered, his voice stuck somewhere between pain and disappointment. His swollen face shrunk into a frown and he took a step forward. "I thought, you lo......""You thought I loved you?... You're tripping.. What the hell are you doing here?" Charlotte interrupted. She slid her feet into her shoes, staring at Tyler in outright disbelief, more like he said the dumbest thing ever.She scoffed when Tyler nodded affirmatively to her impromptu question. A question that sounded rhetorical. "You're such a bozo for thinking I feel shit for you" she yelled. She paused to take her breath. "Why would you barge into me like this....ugh" She said, stomping her feet over the floor.Tyler strained his ears to be sure he didn't have his earphones plugged or a news flash wasn't playing by his ears.Charlotte kissed her teeth, her nostrils flaring like she had a ball of fury in her throat "You're so unbelievable right now, Tyler" Charlotte said. She edged her hands across her chest staring at Tyler with bloodshot eyes.Tyler's lips trembled ceaselessly, streaks of sweat glided down his face. His eyes skimmed between Charlotte and the teammate she had a 'one-afternoon' stand with. his eyes settled on Charlotte. "Charlotte how could you do this to me?" Tyler muttered, and the first year dropped. He sniffed and continued "I was working my ass out to save up and buy you a befitting birthday present, and here you are..... Sleeping around, Charlotte what did I ever do to you?""Aww Poor boy!" Charlotte clamored in an unreal tone of sympathy. A hysteric laughter fled out of her lips. She laughed and staggered towards the teammate. He laughed at her unreal sympathy too. A stoic stare replaced the laughter. "Well you must be so foolish to think I'm in this shitty relationshit with you... You're not my type for Pete's sake, you're jus....""But you said you love me and you know I feel the same way about you" Tyler interrupted amidst tears. He wiped his tears with the back of his palms. "But I guess I was wrong all the while""Of course. You're not even my type Tyler. Besides, this isn't something you should flare up about. Its my pussy and I'm responsible for who fucks it. You should thank your stars that you got the chance to bury that tiny piece of sausage in it" Charlotte said.Moments ago, Tyler's tears cascaded because of the betrayal aching at his heart. But when Charlotte uttered those words, that ache - birthed from betrayal vanished. It got replaced with a prom of fury and disgust. Tyler gritted his teeth, he tightened his fist like he'd punch life out of Charlotte's nostrils."Don't you dare insult me" he groaned.".....oops and what would your dumb ass do if I insult you?" Charlotte dared, stepping into Tyler's space, staring straight into his red eyeballs. "Just take a look at yourself Tyler. You're so ugly broke and fucking useless. You're a broke ass. You couldn't even afford to buy me and iPhone and you stand your silly self here claiming be to my man?" Charlotte scoffed."...but I love you. How dare you treat me like this?" Tyler yelled. Silence invaded the room when he finished speaking and suddenly a laughter tore into the silence. The teammate laughed at Tyler's utterance."You're so dump" the teammate snarled. He pulled out some dollar bills from his pocket and threw them at Tyler's face. "Take this. Go get a life. Leave and never come back, because this beautiful girl right here is mine now. You don't deserve her" the teammate said, pulling Charlotte close to him. He placed a kiss on Charlotte's lips.Tyler fumed with rage, lips trembling and his heart thumping like it'll fall off. He charged at the teammate, landing a punch on his face. "You bastard!" Tyler yelled.The teammate held his face in his hands for a moment. Tyler ambled towards him to land him another blow, but the teammate blocked his arm. He gripped Tyler by the arm, causing him to twirl backwards, while his hands got pinned to the back.Tyler groaned in pain. The teammate let go off his arms. Tyler tried to throw a jab, but the teammate dodged his hand. He grabbed Tyler by his legs and pushed him to the floor.The teammate pounced on Tyler like grain, sitting on his stomach He rained slaps and blows on his already bleeding face, while he gasped for breath."Don't dare raise your filthy hands at me ever again!" The teammate spat. He got off his abdomen. The teammate's line of sight met with a marker on the floor. He picked he scribbled 'SORE LOSER' on Tyler's shirt. He kicked him by the ball, as he threw the marker away."Babe let's get out of here" he said to Charlotte.Tyler curled up on his bed, with thoughts skimming through his mind. The incident with his girlfriend and the teammate replayed in his head again. That thought sent shrills of rage to his heart. He rolled over, peering at the room in a flitting gaze. His rent will soon be due, and the crazy landlord won't hesitate to throw him out of the room if he fails to pay up on time. Every shot at possibility turns back against him. It all ends up in shackles and pains. The only thing that feels theraupatic and fulfilling to do is when he picks up his pen to write a journal. For the last few years, Tyler writes down every emotion he feels. He writes these journals in form of letters to his favorite actor and TV presenter - Will Donalds. Tyler sees Wills as a role model, and they seem to have a few things in common. Will Donalds worked as a janitor in a restaurant before fame shimmered its light on him. Its been a couple of months since the last time Tyler wrote a journal. He sprang up from
Tyler's hands trembled as he stared at his phone. He blinked his eyes rapidly to ensure he wasn't dreaming or staring at a Hollywood blockbuster. He was broke and hopeless a few hours ago, and now - a whooping hundred million is laying in the account. His eyeballs dilated, and a fountain of tears formed in his eyes. The doorbell rang, swinging him out of his thoughts. He put the phone I'm his pocket. He stared at the door for a few seconds, and the doorbell rang again. He sprang up and approached the door. He twisted the knob, and an unfamiliar figure stood in front of him. "How may I help you?" Tyler mumbled, still concealing the shock in his eyes, even if his heart pulsed like it'll fall off his chest. "You must be Tyler. Tyler Johnson" the man standing in front of him said. Tyler hesitated for a minute. He peered at the man and his line of sight met with the 'UPS' inscription on his shirt. It dawned on Tyler that a delivery guy is standing at his doorstep. "Yes, I'm Tyler Johnson
Tyler kissed his tooth loudly as he wandered out of a jewelry store. He'd been walking the streets of LA in search of a presentable gift for Ava. He's not a party freak. His heart constricted at how bad it'll make Ava feel if he gave the wrong gift. Is there anything like a wrong gift? Considerate Tyler. It is been over two hours since he stepped out, and that'll be the third store he'd visited in search of a befitting gift. He walked down the block, beholding the beautiful city. Car engines buzzed at his ears, and the blusters and whispers of other pedestrians ambling down the block too. The skies were beginning to turn gray, necessitating the need for Tyler to get the gift as quickly as he can. She sent the address already. Tyler's gaze settled on a store by the other side of the street. He evaded the sidewalk and crossed to the side of the road. He rubbed his neck lazily, before pushing the door. It was a boutique. The bright lights made him freeze and squint his eyes for a mome
Tyler only wanted to solidify his curiosity and move back to the side of the countered, but Raul and Charlotte had already caught sight of him. "Hi," he muttered to the shocked couple, even if they tried to disguise their surprise with a scornful smile. "Loser" Raul muttered. Tyler ambled closer to them with a smile. Tyler seldom smiles, he's that guy who's always sad an introverted, his smile left Raul's heart blaring with questions. "What is a loser like you doing in this luxury store?" Charlotte said, stepping forward. When Tyler saw Raul, a thought fled into his mind. Charlotte had nothing to do with Raul - the quarterback. After all, he caught her shagging one of the teammates, not Raul. "I came to shop," Tyler said - teeth tightened. Raul and Charlotte exchanged glances and they laughed "Really!" Raul mumbled amidst laughter. "Everyone knows you're a dirty broke ass. This place ain't for people like you. Get the hell out of here" Tyler stood speechless. He stared at Raul
Charlotte's heart missed a beat when the 'ding' sound resounded in her ears. She locked eyes with Tyler and her lips formed an inaudible 'wow' She tried to speak but the shock concealed in her lungs made her beam with a smile. "There you go ma'am" the salesperson's voice jolted Charlotte out of her realm of thoughts. Her line of sight met with the package her supposed quarterback boyfriend could not afford "The purse is yours now" the salesperson added. Charlotte's spine bubbled with adrenaline moments ago, but the salesperson's voice doubled the adrenaline rush. Because she has to make a tough decision. Her supposed well-to-do quarterback boyfriend couldn't afford to buy her a purse. And now - Tyler her ex, the same guy she cheated on, the same guy she called a broke ass bought her an expensive purse. At first, it seemed like a huge punch on Raul's face, but when Charlotte stretched her hands to accept the package from the salesperson, Raul's face shrunk into a scowl. Charlotte ign
The manager's eyes dilated she the hairpin fell. He tried to shrug it off until a golden ring fell off Tyler's pocket too. His eyes widened, almost bulging out like spikes. "What the h....." He exclaimed. He tried to reach for the ring, but Tyler got it before him. He slid the ring into his left index finger. The golden glint of the ring made everyone gaze in shock. Tyler may have bought an expensive purse a few moments ago, but owning a ring worth millions of dollars is the height of all astonishment. "You own that?" The manager said, pointing to the ring in Tyler's fingers. "Yes. I didn't steal it...I" " I didn't say you stole it here" the manager interrupted. "Besides we don't have such kind of luxury ring here" he added. Raul had his heart floating on his tongue. He stared at Tyler in outright shock. If a broke janitor could afford that, then maybe wishes are now horses. There was no way Tyler could afford such a rare gem, within the range of forty-eight hours. "....u...uhm"
Tyler boarded a cab to Ava's. He alighted from the cab after a few minutes. He stood in front of a luxurious penthouse. Tyler stared at the tall building and then he looked down to his tattered shoes. He heaved a sigh. Ava is like an icon, and that depicts the kind of people that'll be attending her birthday party. Ava is a sassy lady, and everyone who's close to her dines on the same table, except Tyler. "I hope I don't get judged because of my outfit" Tyler muttered beneath his breath. His shirt - was slightly drenched with rain, and his brown hair - was disheveled as it sprouted lazily across his forehead. A haircut won't hurt Tyler. He clutched the bag in his head and ascended the stairs, heading to the entrance. He arrived in the long hallway. A few people in sight - each minding their business. The address Ava sent asked that he goes to the second floor of the building. Tyler's eyes skimmed around the hallway and he saw a door, leading to an elevator. His eyebrows creased, a
Tyler paused - lips pouted in awe as he stared at Mandy. Mandy also reciprocated the same gesture. She stared at Tyler with eyes pricked with surprise and a glint of disappointment. "Mandy meet my friend Tyler" The awkward silence lasted for a few minutes. Mandy was the mystery lady in the elevator. "You guys know each other? Ava asked as the unidentified familiarity echoed volumes in silence. "....no" Mandy muttered. "It's good to meet you Tyler" Mandy snarled. She tried to be nice but the smirk in her face gave her away. " I've heard a lot about you. You look horrible by the way" Mandy said. Her face formed into a frown and stormed away. "Mandy!" Ava yelled as Mandy walked away. "Ugh..." She let out a deep breath. " I'm sorry about that. Mandy can be a pain in the ass sometimes" Ava said, placing her hands on Tyler's shoulder. "It's fine," Tyler said. "Happy birthday once again. You look beautiful tonight" Tyler complimented. A smile scurried to Ava's lips and her cheeks red
