Keith turned to look at the man, he was trying his best to make sure that there was something he had heard unclearly. “What in the world did you say?” Keith looked at the man with a calm face, he was not sure that there would be anything that would make him feel uneasy. “I am trying to tell you to take your business elsewhere, you are not meant to be in this shop and there is no place for you here at the Golden Mall.” The man was looking Keith dead in the eye when he said those words, he was looking at Keith like there was nothing that would even make him accept in their store. “I don't know what you are getting at but I will tell you this, control yourself before it costs you something.” Keith was not even trying to pay attention to the man. He went back to look at the clothes on the aisle, he was about to touch something when the man held his hand. “Please sir, we can not let you stain our designer clothes with your filthy hands. I would not like to see anything go out of the wa
Keith was looking at the man, he was not about to let anyone insult him and walk out free. It was going to be what he would do to the man that he was thinking of. “I don't know what you think you are but there is no way your manager would even think that it would be a good idea leaving someone like you here.” The man smiled, he was looking at Keith, and he wanted to make something clear to him. “I know you think that there is a way you would fool me and make everyone here think you can pay for that piece of clothing you are holding when we both know that even in a thousand years you can never think of paying for that or anything you take from this particular store. Even if you were to tell everyone that you would.” Keith didn't say any other word, he was still shocked at how the man was that vulgar towards him like he had seen him before. But there was no telling what it was that motivated the man to say or do any of the things he just did. “You will soon understand that not everyt
The entire shop was waiting for something to happen but it was like Keith was making up stories. He was still there looking at them with a stern face, there was nothing that would make him leave the shop like that.“Hey buddy, I think you need what we call a reality check. There is no way on earth you have anything to your name. you might think that there is something there for you and you need to lie your way through.” Hendricks had a smile on his face, he was loving the moment he was tormenting Keith.Keith didn’t say anything but stand there, his attitude and behavior made the people at the shop feel a bit irritated. He was not even trying to protect his name or anything he was there taking the insults like they were nothing to him.“This guy is a dumb ass fake, how on earth would someone like that have anything other than his clothes and it is like he was not even prepared to meet someone like Hendricks here. I bet he was planning to steal the cloth and leave.”“I feel the same to
Hendricks was looking at his boss, his face looked like he had seen a ghost or something that had put fear into him, but it was not normal for him to sound like he was scared of something.“Sir? I told you that this man came into this shop and took something. He was not even thinking of doing anything like paying for it, he was even making claims that he would make us pay for doing something like this to him.” Hendricks was not even ready to listen to his boss.He turned to Keith, he had a look of disgust in his eyes, and he was not even sure he wanted to look at Keith anymore. “This vile creature, there is no place for him here or anywhere but the gutters where he belongs. I think he should know his place before even thinking of doing anything that would bring him closer to people of high standard.”Hendricks was still looking at Keith, he went closer to Keith and spat on his face. “How disgusting, I don’t know why you live.”“Hendricks you fool! Do you want to ruin me? Have you gone
Keith walked out of the store a bit upset, he had wasted time there. He was going to look for a place where he would be able to grab a bite and make sure that there was nothing that would make him think of something else.‘Blasted shopkeeper, how could he have thought that he was on the same level as me? I reckon he thought he was richer than me in a way.’Keith knew that everyone kept saying things like that because he still wanted to keep a low profile and make sure that he was not going to bring more attention to himself. It was only a matter of time until he made an example out of someone who would make the mistake of crossing paths with him.Lost in thought Keith was getting angry, he didn’t know what he wanted to do” I will not take it lightly, it will be something that they would need to stop doing.”Keith was never the type of man to take insults lightly, he was the person who would always want to make sure that there were no problems with anyone while he kept his peace at all
Keith was looking at the man and the only thing he could think of was a way to help him out of the cab business. “A man like you should not even be worrying about things like that, you have a good heart and I can see that in you. Any lady that left you should go for a check-up.” Keith had gotten into a conversation with the man and before he knew it they seemed to be talking about his life and divorce. “Well, I left her so she could be happy and get what she wants. There is no telling what she had been doing behind my back.” Keith couldn't help but think about the things Eleanor had been doing behind his back. It was still a surprise that she was not worried about the divorce, it was like she was praying for it and she had seen someone who would make sure she was not broke. That was where she made a mistake, if she had waited for some time then it would have been a different story for her and her family but she was not patient enough and she had lost everything that would hold he
Noelle was sitting with Keith as they were having their meal, there was a moment of awkward silence between the two. It was a bit unreal but there was nothing to be said or even be done at the moment. “So what happened that night? I have always wanted to know why those men were trying to take you.” Keith wanted to know what she might have done to make her a target, it was still strange how there were people who would think kidnapping someone in the wide open like there was no one going to say anything to them. Noelle stopped eating, she looked down at the table. “You see, in my family they think that they can tell me what to do and who to marry and I am meant to follow their rules. I know they think it is the only way to keep the family name alive but I do not want to be part of whatever it is they are doing there and I know it can't be the only way out.” Noelle was not sounding happy when she was talking about the man, Kieth noticed her uneasiness and everything she was trying to
Noelle was looking at Keith, she wondered if he was drunk from the wine on the table. “You are taking me for a joke? I don't know where I mentioned that my being in this position was a joke of some sort.” Keith took another sip and looked at Noelle, he was smiling because he knew that she didn't know who he was. “I know you think that there is no one in this city that would even think of partnering with you. But I am crazy enough to be partners with you and make sure that there is no way Lionel would even think of laying a finger on me.” Keith smiled proudly, Noelle took one good look at Keith and concluded that he was crazy. “What in the world are you talking about? There is no way you would even think of going close to him and surviving.” Noelle was looking at Keith as she tried to tell him the terrors of trying to partner with her. “You see if there is something I have learned all these years, it's that you should never judge someone based on his appearance, I will make sure th
