A minute into the video, it felt like his skin was crawling out of him, the hairs on his body stood straight, ten times more sensitive than it had been. His heart beated violently as he felt the shortness of breath suffocate life out of him.

“So it's you?” Queen gasped, unable to utter words. She had initially thought the viral video was a fake and just a click bait now that his second company had begun rising and getting attention.

She turned her head to Louis, surprised to see his terrified face.

The video, a short clip of Louis complaining to his then girlfriend, Jessica about the stuck up nature of the president of the country and the leaders that helped rule it. He vented out his frustration of not getting a job by trash talking the leaders and their mistakes.

“She had me on camera,” Louis muttered in realization.

The day of the video came clear to his memory again. He remembered being tossed away from a company that promised to hire him, but after a change of policy by the go

    He reached out for his phone and dialed an event planner's number.Queen was at a loss of idea on why he called an event planner. Was he planning to marry a random girl to make his exes jealous? Her ear muscles stretched to Louis' direction struggling to make out their words on the phone.“Oh my god!” She gasped, giving into her ridiculous thoughts “He is planning a wedding now,” she whispered, her face distraught with emotions.“Do you remember who I am?” Louis inquired over the phone.The receiver gave an affirmative response to Louis and sounded happy to finally get a call from him. “I thought you'd never call after I reached out to you,?” The planner said“No, I have been waiting for the perfect time and fortunately, it's here,”The event planner jubilated over the phone like she had waited for this all her life “I am sending the video to you right after this call,” “Please do that quickly. When I get the video, I'll send you some money,” Louis said and ended the call while exc

    Jessica squinted her eyes as she watched herself walking down an aisle on a wedding dress. She was all smiles and elated to be there. She itched her head in realization that the video was about her marriage with Raul. She was about to give a light chuckle when the full memory of that day flashed past her brain.“Why do you have this on your phone?” Raul enquired, trying to grab it away from her grasp. The old woman quickly jumped back, defying the proof that old people were slow in movement.“Back away from me before I call the guards on you,” she warned, glaring at him. She threatened Chris with a pepper spray on her purse,which she also quickly exhumed in contrast to when she searched for her phone.All these while, Jessica slightly bent her knees, straining her eyes to watch the video. She saw herself holding hands with Raul, the priest about to make them seal their marriage with a kiss and then to her fear, Louis appeared in the video.“Oh god, no” Jessica cried out “They got thi

    “What's this?” Raul questioned, frightened to open the envelope.“I don't know,” a guard teased, laughing at the humiliation they faced at the public “Maybe it's a pregnancy test,” his voice dripped with sarcasm.The envelope vibrated on his hands, his instincts had already read the contents and sent him a negative feedback.“Come on, we did nothing wrong. Why are you harassing us?” Raul tried to negotiate with the guards.“It seems like we should cut the nonsense and just throw you out,” As the guards moved in a unison speed, Raul hollered at them in defeat.“Okay I will. Please give me time to read it,” His plea forced them to wait and give him time to sink in the contents of the document. As Raul opened the seal and read the title, his heart took a deep dive into his guts, cutting off air from his throat.“TERMINATION FROM THE COLLEGE WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT,” He tucked the documents back into the envelope like a baby placed in a crib.“How is this possible?” Raul thundered with a

    He stood in the middle of the sitting room, the couple and their child staring at him in fear as they waited for the wooden creaking floor to stop.Louis would have pettily asked for a seat but they were too old and dusty for him to throw caution to the wind. There was not much to look at as it was Raul's old apartment which he had been to numerous times in the past.The only change was the broken windows and the shredded curtains that made the building look uninhabitable.“How are you guys doing?” Louis asked with a dubious smirk “I hope I have not caused too much trouble for you guys?”Their eyes lit up in anger as Louis threw those questions at them, knowing fully well that he was the reason for their condition.“What sort of question is that?” Raul spat out “Haven't you done enough? Look at us,” Raul spun around the room, his hands pointing to the roof “Look at what you have done to us. I hope you are satisfied, I hope you have gotten your revenge. Now we can't go anywhere without

    An awkward silence ensued between Jessica and Raul as they failed to believe the words that seeped out of the mouth of Louis.“This must be a joke,” Raul stuttered in unbelief. He gritted his teeth and twisted his lips in disgust.They said revenge is a dish best served cold but Louis served his frozen. He made sure they were stiff to the core and unable to grasp whatever action that happened in an instant.“Tell me you did not come all the way just to mock us with this offer?” Jessica said, her eyes ready to release another round of tears far greater than the ones before.Louis quickly raised his hands in denial, shaking his head diligently as if he was about to debunk a claim “No, no. That's not what it is,” he said, stamping his feet to the ground “Mocking is for beginners. I simply came to return your favor back to you. Feel free to interpret anyway you please,”Jessica gave up acting tough in Louis' presence. She dropped to her knees, her hands on her face as she covered the sha

    “Crap!” A hoarse voice said, peering at its phone. “Not again. At this point, how am I going to survive?”Raul stood in front of a company, waiting in line to get interviewed. He was in search of a job as he had promised his wife. Though he had underestimated the stress of looking for a job, the constant denial in his application at several companies made him clarify his notion.No company wanted to hire him despite his mastery in his field of work. At first glance, they would give him a reassuring smile that meant he would get the job, but a second glance at his face and then his name, they would make awkward looks that threatened his optimism.“It's nice seeing you in person, we will reach out to you when we make our decision. Have a nice day,” Those were the last words the employers would say to him before they sent him a message, denying his application five minutes later. A clear signal that none of them wanted anything to do with a public ridicule like him.Raul would have give

    “How can you say that?” Raul shouted. His eyes mirrored the terror he was about to face if Jessica made good on her words.“Am I not a human like you. I know my qualifications and I should be able to voice out my feelings when I feel like I'm getting cheated,” he thundered.Jessica laughed and jammed her hands together in mockery of him “I applaud such an awe-inspiring speech. Maybe you should stop searching for a job and be a life coach, because that's what I'm getting from you,” her voice echoed sarcasm around it.“Raul Simpson, Nobody cares about your qualifications. What I want from you is for you to provide food on our table. So if you are going to be a bitch about it, then hurry up and tell me. I can't endure suffering with you,” The words rang in his ears like a church bell calling for morning mass. That wasn't a joke and she meant every bit of it.“Do you want us to become cleaners?” He asked “I don't care. The question you should be asking is how is their pay,” she replied

    The workers at Raul's back tried to hold him from falling but he quickly stood on his feet, grappling his chest for air. “This is a mirage. No a lookalike, maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me,” Raul mumbled. He could not believe his sight, not even a thousand years of staring into the face of Louis would make him believe that Louis was also the mystery owner of Twin Tower company.Jessica shook her head, her brows began to wrinkle in fear and disappointment. She turned to Raul to confirm if she was the only one that saw Louis but Raul's pale skin, the depressed face he made, and his gasps for breath proved that he saw the same thing.She stared back at Louis and the assistant by his corner, her disappointed frown worsened as she wrapped her arms around her stomach. She felt a cold sensation wash down her body, sending shivers to her spine. Her legs felt too weak to hold her own weight and the noise of the people were bombs that dealt with her ears.“God, this must be a dream,” she

    If Chris was going to be thrown out with nothing, it would have been better for him, but the worst was yet to come. As he got closer to the door, the sound of a police siren rang aloud in his ears.It was time for him to spend his old age in prison. “No, let me go. I'm too rich to go to jail,” Chris struggled, letting out a devastated cry “Please somebody stop them,” he begged, but it was too late to ask for sympathy.“It can't end this way, please. I'll die the first second I get to jail. They'll kill me. Do you know the number of people waiting for me there,” Chris continued, screaming his lungs out.The people laughed as Chris was escorted to the police. His screams fell short in Louis' ear and Mrs Kimberly couldn't bear but feel satisfied at the fate that Chris was met with.“Finally, I get to see him pay for all the crimes he did to me and others alike ,” She said with teary eyes. “Karma really took her time to take a jab at him,” “I won't lie, it sure does look good to see him

    Everyone's attention shifted to the center of the hall. They gaped around as their heart panicked Who was going to be eliminated next? Who was going to win the game? Worst, what would happen to those who stood the test of time till the finals of the competition? Were they going to be compensated or left with nothing while they celebrated the victor? These questions were audible in their head. They couldn't find an answer as to what was going to happen next. “It's time for the results,” Chris shouted, acting like he had gone crazy. “If you stupid panel members have any ounce of respect left for me, you'd make it right and call me the winner,” He brushed past everyone and stood at the center of the hall, beating his chest with force “I made this game what it is today, very competitive. I deserve some credits for lasting long in this competition,”In a feat of rage, he forcefully grabbed a member of his secret league by the collar and dragged him to the center.“Look at all these peo

    “It's all Raul's fault. I was afraid to tell you but I have gathered up courage to tell you the truth,” Jessica continued.She got very close to him and placed her left hand on his shoulder with a seductive eye staring right at him.“You know how I used to make you happy, how I made you feel like a man and brave enough to strive for success,” She placed her finger on her lips and winked at him “I can do that again. I can make you happy again. Let's both forget about what Raul destroyed and make peace again,”Louis gave her cold look, threatening her to remove her hand from his shoulder but she latched on like a seat back on an airplane.“Get your filthy hands off me before I do it myself and trust me, you are not going to like it,” Louis threatened.“Come on Louis,” She said, placing her right hand on his other shoulder like she wanted to embrace him. “Try to understand me, Raul is our enemy and we must join hands to eliminate….”A muscular guard picked up Jessica from her waist away

    “Low Props, Master,” Queen uttered, knowing Louis was lost in his thoughts.“What's happening to it?” Louis asked, a tad bit disinterested on the topic.“Hello,” she waved her hands. “You just revealed you are the CEO of Twin Tower company, of course Low Props' hotline is going to be buzzing with calls,” she said.Louis nodded and raised a brow at her statement. “What's that got to do with me?” He asked.Queen exhaled loudly, trying to hold back her surprised expression “You told me you'd want to go to Low Props after your reveal,” She said, her tone loud and assertive.“Oh… that. Well, there's a change of plans. I got something better to do,” Louis stated, looking at his watch “The college will send a notification anytime soon and I'd like to be present,”Queen ruffled her hair and adjusted her skirt while looking down at her feet “How do you know that? I don't think it will be safe enough to go there at this moment,” she raised her head and pointed to a replay of Louis' reveal ”The

    “Hello sir, twelve branches of your company have been shut down globally,” his secretary reported through a phone call. She was too scared to meet with her boss physically.Chris, with a heavy sigh, ended the call in depression. He decided to stay at home and wail in his sudden downfall. Most of the few remaining members of the secret league had quit their membership in the league, all in the aim of cutting off any relationship with Chris.The fake leader he had hired to act as the leader of the secret league was nowhere to be seen. He was just a few hours from hitting rock bottom while his name was being trash talked throughout the globe. “At this point I might as well give up the ghost, coz I have nothing left to fight for,” Chris wept silently. He stayed in his house for hours doing nothing but cry and stare into the abyss of emptiness.At the strike of twelve, his phone beeped with the notification of a Livestream from the world's biggest news channel. They claimed to have a big

    “You tricked me, you bastard,” Chris yelled, punching his table in anger.“No, I outsmarted you,” Louis continued laughing, unfazed by the tremor in Chris' voice “What were you thinking I was going to do? Sit by and watch you drown me in problems,” he said in a sarcastic tone.“You worthless fool, better watch your back because I promise, you will pay for this,” Chris replied.Louis put his phone on loudspeaker and placed it on top of his table. He then proceeded to cross his arms and snicker at the weak threat Chris made towards him.“I wonder if you have paid for the crimes you have committed,” Louis calmly said “You know, the ones you do behind the scenes and pay people to cover it up,”Chris gnashed his teeth and looked at his watch. With a gruff and rushed voice, he yelled “What do you mean by that? Do you have any evidence against me, you stupid fool?” “Chill, chill. I got time for you okay.” Louis said in a scornful voice. He ruffled his hair and exhaled lightly “The bribes yo

    The headline wasn't celebratory nor was it informative; It was a blasphemy to Chris. What he saw on his television screen made him stand up from his cushion and gasp in fright.“CHRIS, A FALSE HERO TO SOCIETY IS EXPOSED FOR THE TYRANT HE IS AND ALWAYS WAS,” The headline read along with the ugliest reporter Chris had ever thrown words at in his sitting room.He walked closer to his television, feeling threatened by the news they aired.“What is wrong with these people, have they forgotten who I am,” Chris blurted out with his hands on his head. He began breathing heavily as he felt the urge to hold the reporter by her throat and strangle the life out of her. His chest became bloated with held back emotions of the news. He wasn't trying to find out why they labeled him as a tyrant but was bent on making the editor pay for picking a fight with him.The crimes he had committed behind the curtains without justice giving him a piece of her blades had left him feeling too big to be called o

    The next thing Chris was greeted with after a day's work was a lawsuit, perfectly laid on his table and waiting to draw his attention. As Chris slipped into his office to catch a break from plotting nonstop about his final plan to end Louis, he saw it lying on his table.There it was looking at him and he in turn was staring at it. He drew close to his chair, his chest slowly pounding as he managed to sit. He dropped his walking cane on the floor and placed his hands on the table, trying to calm his disrupted nerves from causing a rampage.“My secretary didn't tell me there was mail for me,” he said, touching the envelope with a finger which he quickly withdrew after the envelope moved from the force of his hands.“It's light, what could it be,” he muttered. He tried to call his secretary but hesitated, thinking it was too trivial of a situation to yell at her.With a swift move of his right palm, he grabbed the envelope and ripped the seal off. As he brought out the document his eyes

    Chris made a dubious smirk as he strolled towards Louis' direction. His face turned menacing as he smiled callously with a glare but that was ineffective to a boiling Louis.“I am tempted to believe you are following me,” Chris continued. “Coz, why am I seeing you in such an awful state,” He laughed in scorn.“You are really senile to think I'm in an awful position,” Louis fired back.“With those rusty, tired face of yours, of course it safe to say that we have been giving you more than you can handle,” Chris instantly replied with a sneer. “How's your teammates? I heard they were terminated,” He laughed and cleaned the tip of his walking cane “That's a gift from the league, I hope they liked it?”“You old fool,” Louis flared up and rushed to attack him.“Please by all means, punch me, hit me. I need it right now, that would be a fast way to claim my victory,” Chris hollered with a smirk.Those words were truthful enough to chain Louis in a spot while his chest pounded heavily. A sli
