A Night At The Mansion.
Michael Guterson still couldn't believe his eyes. First, he now has a family, and now, not just a family but a wealthy one.
"Your Apartment, Elegant Young Sir Michael," Sebastian said, as Michael was still following him, and this time, he was taken to an all-beautiful section of the mansion, possessing its everything. Dining table, restroom, study and all. The study especially. It was packed with books and Michael was a bookworm. He admired it in every sense.
"God.. You love me this much!?"
"Pardon? Elegant Young Sir Michael."
"Ohh, nothing."
Michael didn't know those words slipped out of his mouth aloud already. He couldn't contain his joy and was only trying to have himself controlled.
Sebastian left and returned after some minutes as they were to head back to Mama G again. They haven't finished their discussion.
"So what level are you at Coles and what is your course of study?"
His grandmother asked.
"Final year Ma, I am a Business Administration student." Michael Guterson said.
But Mama G already knows. She had asked Dan everything about him, including his performance in academics.
"Oh, final year. Any stress?" She asked again.
Michael remembered all the stress he passed through and is currently experiencing both academic and emotional.
He felt like starting to tell her what the boys made him go through, how he sometimes submit assignments and had them left by the desk, all because he probably couldn't wash some dirty dishes or do some ironing. He needed someone to talk to. Michael found tears already gathering in his eyes but had to still control. He couldn't have his grandmother know all of this now. It's too early.
"No stress Grandma. We've been managing." Michael said eventually.
He said and they continued with the gist again with Mama G before Michael considered returning to the dormitory. Though they never liked him, they'd still look for him in school; his services too. Michael thought.
"So would you like to return to your dormitory or go to school from here? Sebastian would drive you every day if you like." Mama G said.
But Michael Guterson considered he shouldn't allow all to distract him now. They certainly will. He had never lived in wealth, and now, there was no way dinner on a royal table every day, and having a driver to go with him everywhere in a Porsche wouldn't distract him.
He's just at the concluding phase of his academia, his books needed him the most.
"I'll return Grandma." He said.
Michael was still talking when he heard a 'tink' sound on his phone. He dipped his hand in his jeans pocket to remove his phone to see what and who it was. The sound was obviously for an incoming message.
He looked, it was a transfer of fifty million dollars. From, this time he couldn't contain himself and read it aloud.
"Guterson's Empire."
Michael had his mouth agape.
"Grandma..!?"
"Yes, my dear", she said.
"That's for your general upkeep as you return. You can still let me know if you need anything else." She said.
There's nothing else he would need. Michael thought. Fifty million dollars would solve all of his life's problems.
"Thank you grandma", he said eventually.
"Thank you, my son. You have no idea what seeing you today has done for me", she said.
But Michael just returned from Diane's party before he was picked up to his grandmother. It was late already, so had to spend the night at the mansion.
"Is that the phone you use?" Mama G inquired again.
Michael never felt ashamed of his phone until that day. The screen was already chopped off from several falls at the hostel. Sometimes, his friends intentionally push him with the phone in his hand saying how come he could even afford an Infinix model. But it was a gift Mr. Lawrence gave him the second day he came to see him in school.
"Ye..yes, grandma", Michael Guterson responded.
"Before you leave, Sebastian will take you to the Empire's Digital store to have a choose."
So they have a digital store? Everything just takes Michael into deep thought.
"Yes grandma", he managed to say.
"Lest I forget, you'll have to spend the night here and then return to your dorm tomorrow. It's late and I wouldn't have anything harm you."
"Yes Grandma", Michael said, as he had already calculated how he'd be sleeping on the king-sized bed that night.
"Good night my love". His grandmother said with so much admiration in her eyes, as she stood up to proceed to her inner chamber.
"Good night grandma."
*****
Michael woke up as early as possible. He slept for barely three hours the previous night. Thoughts of the new him couldn't let him be. How his life changed from a poor dude to a millionaire with thousands of dollars in his account, to having exotic cars all for him.
Thoughts of Diane also ran through his head. She had neglected him because he was poor, now he has it all. He'd be returning to have her, she must be his. He remembered Will, he'd be choosing the hottest phone brand today, so just his phone would command respect from him.
Michael thought of Sebastian dropping him off, then he remembered his friends must have been looking for him already as that was the first time he slept out. Returning in a huge Porsche or Limou would raise so much brows.
He quickly stood up to have his bath. He put on the water heater and proceeded to wander in thoughts again while he waited for the water to heat up. Will poured Henesse on him. 'Gutter, Gutter boy.' Thoughts of all the bullying and humiliation he passed through at the hostel couldn't leave him be.
He had his shower and returned to the same jeans he came in. Black jeans don't show when they are dirty. He would just go to the boutique after class. Money is not the problem.
It was seven thirty already. The lectures would be by nine. He had to start rushing. He quickly bid his grandmother farewell, Sebastian too. The other young men were by the gate.
"Elegant Young Sir Michael!, Elegant Young Sir Michael!" The voice kept calling.
Michael turned, it was Sebastian.
At The Dean's Office. How would he get used to the fact that he is now a rich young man? Michael Guterson thought. He had forgotten he'd be having his phone changed today.Michael thought about telling Sebastian to leave it only when he returned but remembered he'd still be having a group class after the nine o'clock lecture. Now is the perfect time. He'd only be some minutes late for the lectures. Mr. Francis never even keeps to time.Michael went with Sebastian to a big electronics store. It was obvious poor people can't get a thing there. Everything was set in glass casings.With the help of Sebastian, Michael chose the hottest phone brand. It was a Samsung LX3D. The newest release."Seventy-three thousand dollars sir", the store's attendant said.Michael was about to withdraw his phone from his pocket to make a transfer when Sebastian gave him a green card. "Here, Elegant Young Sir Michael, Mama G said I should give you this to take care of all your transfers." Michael didn't kn
The Card At Royale Couture.MICHAEL thought about revealing to them immediately, who he was, but that would have all eyes on him in the entire school. He wasn't even done with the embarrassment from Diane's party. He was sure his pictures and video recordings were all across social media."Michael..?" A voice called just when Michael was about to walk with the security officers to where he didn't even know. He looked, it was Barrister Dan, Coles University's chancellor.The same man his grandmother told him was then his father's friend."Where are you taking him to?, Mr. Dan asked the officers."This poor thing here is nothing but a thief. He stole a green card from who we don't even know, and came here to use it to settle his tuition fees." Mr. Park said."Let him be, Now!!" Dan, who was their University's chancellor and also a barrister said."What..!??" The members of staff chorused."If you all don't want to lose your jobs right now, let the young master released!"Young master?
Glass Comb.Diane was lost what Michael had turned out to be just in few hours, and how people are now bowing to him even the middle-aged man. "Who are these two to you? I see you've grown wings now Michael" Will said.Before the security officers could arrive, Diane and Will already found their way out of the building."So sorry young master!", the middle-aged man said again.Michael was still confused as he turned to leave. He saw the man hurry to the door even before him, he pushed the door open directing Michael to just walk out.Michael was walking out when the man screamed again, "Please Mama G shouldn't know about this."Michael laughed."What will I even tell her?" he muttered to himself.*****It was evening already and Michael decided to return to the hostel. The boys probably must have gone to meet their girls, they'll just be out. The hostel's population is normally reduced drastically during the evenings and sometimes, Michael wondered where they all go to."Heyy gutter.
The Paper Signing."I am talking to you Diane, what are you doing here and without your super boyfriend?"Another flush of confidence ran through Michael Guterson. It was Diane. His dislike for her was now becoming intense. Instantly, Michael had no iota of love for the woman he had always desired."You know I love you, you know I love you, Michael. You are the only super boyfriend I have."Michael ignored, "Can we continue dude?", Michael said, ordering his barber to continue what he was doing."I came to have my hair regelled so I saw you and thought you could just order me a fresh hairdo so we could look new altogether. No one would look good and have his woman look the other way round, is that?" Diane continued again."For your information Diane or whatever it is you are called, I am not your super boyfriend and will never be. Not ever again. If you need Will, I believe you have a cell phone in your hand to call him."Just when Michael Guterson uttered that statement, his phone be
THE DRIVE"IT'S NOTHING, I WANT YOU TO PLEASE HELP ME SIGN THESE DOCUMENTS, WILL RICHARDSON'S SON IS IN POLICE CUSTODY. Only these documents confirming he's the highest shareholder of the G.G's Place would allow him live."Mama G was right behind, seated in the sleek Limou. Michael Guterson didn't know."Will Richardson?", Michael tried to inquire from his grandmother. "Yes, Will Richardson". Mama G said.Granting his grandmother's wish shouldn't be something he should hesitate to do, no matter what it is. Michael Guterson thought."Michael pleaseee… Don't do this to me. Pleaseee.. You know I love you.""Shall we, Sebastian?" Michael Guterson said, without trying to inquire where the documents were, quickly taking off his body from Diane as he never wanted his grandmother to know what was really going on."Everything okay?" Mama G inquired."Everything is fine Grandma. Just classmates from the dorm." Michael said, shying away from anything that would lead him to mention Diane to his
PLAYGROUND "Do take care of yourself Elegant Young Master", Sebastian said, as he bid Michael Guterson farewell.But Michael's attention wasn't even on Sebastian. Seeing Dave at the pitch would be hell. Since the past weeks, the gang-up between Will and him was just so much."Where you see people who aren't in your class, why would you consider being there?"A strange voice echoed. Michael turned, it was a tall, blonde-haired guy he had never seen in Coles before."I know you probably don't even know me. But who does not know the only Gutter we have in Coles?" Fred, a first-year student just admitted into Coles continued.But how would they all confuse him this way? Michael thought. They just hailed him, probably when Diane was at his knees, and now, a first-year student was telling him gibberish. If only they had known who he was. But didn't the sleek Limou that came pick him the other day tell them enough?Does he have to officially reveal himself as a rich young master? Michael
NOT NOW Michael Guterson had no option, he would leave, he never wanted any avoidable trouble on him again. But if only Dave knew who he was now, that he was really a rich young master, that he was now an heir, and not just an heir, but one to an Empire; the Guterson's Empire. But what about his reputation? Would the boys all tag him a thief? Would Dave explain he only wanted him out of the space? Maybe he should just return to the mansion, Michael thought. He stood up to leave. Not because if he stays, he can't contain the trouble with Dave, but because he still needs no trouble. At least, for his mental health. His phone was buzzing, few kilometers away from the dorm. "My sweet girl", he still hasn't changed Diane's name the way he had it saved to his phone already. "Completely not worth it," Michael Guterson muttered to himself, immediately heading to the 'edit' part of his phone contacts as he changed Diane's name to what it is. "Diane Ross." "Or maybe I just have it d
