Chapter 02

Xavier's - [P.O.V]

I was Thrown into jail, just like that!

They kept me in for a while day and soon my trial started.

It was all Mr Suwanee's doing, he wanted me gone so fast he immediately filed a case of assault against me. I could have done the same but unfortunately there was no money to hire a lawyer.

It didn't even matter to the judge when I tried to explain that I too had got beat up by both him and his bodyguards, but at that point, who was talking?

I was a nobody, and Mr Suwanee had bribed the judges to arrest and imprison me. And it was because of this that my trial didn't even last up to 5 minutes before the judge announced the verdict.

I was to serve 9 months in Jail and He would have kept me in there longer but unfortunately for him, My crime wasn't so bad.

9 months had Never felt so long, I mean it is long but it had never felt like 10 years. I got beat up and tortured daily by security officers Mr Suwanee paid to beat me up, his main goal was to kill me.

But I remained strong, I wouldn't let myself die by his hands.

Finally my term was over and I was let go, as I took my leave, the security guard at the gates stopped me.

"Make sure you stay off anything that has to do with your father, your imprisonment here is actually illegal but listen to us, even if it's your father's grave, Avoid it!" They warned because it would only mean that Mr. Suwanee was in still in search of me.

I was reduced to something Nothing!

Getting a Regular Job will even be Dangerous because as I have heard now... The Suwanee Family are now super Rich people handling contracts in almost every Top Companies which makes getting Employed difficult for me... I even still have nothing on me at all.

All my documents were probably Trashed.

I walked into the road... Truly feeling like a hopeless Loser as the man told me before, one will think I was walking into the road to commit suicide but it was something else.

I was previously beaten in jail before my release and I had nowhere to Go, except the gutters which as Soon as I reached, I fell in.

Anything could be in this sewers, snakes, scorpions, Name it, but fear thrills me once I heard a Voice of someone else above me.

"Hey! Watsup! You look new." The guy said.

"Yep! Probably a human Eater." I said giving up at this point cause what will a normal human be doing in a gutter with me.

"My name is Jared, and you?" He asked.

"I'm Xavier Stage." I said to him.

"Nice name, you sound rich." He added.

"I'm far from that." I replied to him.

"Broke?" He asked.

What's with this stranger making conversations with me for?

"No, I'm not Broke... I'm wretched." I replied and he paused for a moment.

"So do you have a hand job?" He asked.

"Sure..." I replied.

"What do you do?" He asked.

"Jared... If you are going to ask me for money, just forget it, I have no work, feel free to rob me if you need my pants." I said bluntly and he laughs as he looks at me.

"No bruh! I was in the military school but my parents sadly passed before I could finish, I'm very good with using Guns, and any weapon, I'm homeless today cause our school was attacked my terrorists!" He said and I kept silent because that was nothing compared to what I had been through!

"I'm so sorry about your parents deaths, but that's none of my business, I just left a terrible place and my body hurts, although I'm a good menson, I'm good at building plans and house construction, kind of what I studied." I said to him and he jerks up from the gutter.

"Really! There's a huge construction man looking to hire constructors in the city, he is looking for someone to build his guest house and promises to link the best workers to his Chinese business partners, they pay is $60 per hour." He said and I got up.

"Where?" I asked moving towards him as I checked to see if was at the capital City.

"I would have loved to go but I'm out of cash." I said back to him and he smiled.

"No problem, I will take you along with me." And just like that... We headed the following day to the bus station and then to the place.

Although on our way there... We were attacked by Gunmen who robbed the bus and shot Jared because he tried to fight them.

Soon Afterwards, we were at the Hospital.

"Listen you have to go without me, here's the flier, make sure you do this job Man, I will catch up with you soon." He said to me as he pushes me to leave with some cash in hand.

"Thank you, so much!." I said to him before leaving for the city which I was soon to reach.

On reaching there; They were other men on ground all station in clothes torn or drenched in cement, it was obvious these men were all construction workers as well.

"Hey you! Come here!" A man with a tag 'manager, Called me and I quickly walked to him only for him to throw building tools at me.

"You came late, get to work!" He rudely yells and I immediately began work.

"How come he is so fast at it?" Another worker asked.

"Such speed and Professionalism, is building his talent?" Another person asked.

"He hasn't even seen the house plan yet, how does he know what to build, who is this guy?" I hear them murmur as I turned back too see everyone staring at me.

Unfortunately at that point that was when I mistakenly pushed off a brick, just one brick. I'm sure that happened a lot but then the manager seemed to just hate me.

He looked at the brick and back at me.

"This wouldn't have happened If you had just not try to show off" He blurted with annoyance.

"I'm sorry sir it was accident " I respectfully replied.

"Well since you're so good how about we all take a break while you go on alone."

I was confused, he wanted me to go on building alone, I know I was fast but then, why was I being punished?.

"But sir..." I tried to protest.

"One more word and you're out" He said and I respectfully kept quiet and just do as I was told, what hurt me was the fact that they'd all get paid even though they didn't do any work, so basically I was 'helping' everyone else.... technically against my will. I was so pissed but since the pay was really good, I tried to just go on without any complaint.
