"What is wrong with it sir?" he asked looking confused 

"Are you asking me? you reply my question with question, you must be an idiot!" he screams at him

"You look familiar," one of the girls commented. 

"Yeah, don't you know him? the crowned school peasant" the other girl replied.

Nathan was very ashamed of himself. As he turned he could see that all the customer was on him and at this time he prayed that the earth would just swallow him. 

Luckily for him his senior colleague in the restaurant intervened but not without receiving some harsh words from the blond boy. 

As they proceeded to the door he turned and warned Nathan to watch his back. 

"Go fuck your self!" Nathan shouted deeply with annoyance .

On hearing this the blond boy attacked him but to his dismay he landed on the ground after taking two devastating punches that matched exactly with his face from Nathan. 

 ***

"Man you have to watch your back" Ruben tells Nathan as they were washing the dishes. 

"Wait! for who? that spoiled brat! I will kill..."

"shut boy, do you know who that boy is?" He hushed him.

"I don't care bro he was the one that is at fault". 

"Bro that's Desmond Elliott son of Williams Elliott a political elite and bourgeoisie" he sounded trying to scare him. 

He continued

"man just pray that he doesn't come here looking for you but before then you and boss have a long talk".

 On hearing this he became unhappy instantly, first his boss and now this guy. During the fight they have succeeded in breaking two glass cups and now he has to answer for it. 'At this rate my little pay will be all finished by the end of the month he thought'.

 

 ****

He left for his hostel around 8.30pm, by then he was really tired. As he entered he saw his roommates playing laptop game 

"Man come let me give you the beating of your life" Jim boasts 

"in your dreams" Nathan replied as he rushed into the bathroom to have a cool bath.

 His roommates were his only friends although not best friends but at least they see him as a human being.

Two out of the three came from a middle class household while the other Blake was from a rich family. 

Blake is though arrogant and annoying at times but he is kindhearted and most importantly he is an introvert. The others Jim and Baggio were ardent noise makers but very friendly.

After his bath he joined them in playing the game. He is a game lover, especially the football playstation. He then mentioned the name Desmond to them to know their reaction. The answer given to him certified everything that Michael, his senior colleague told him earlier.

 ***

A day after the incident two police cars immediately packed nearby the restaurant. He could see them but wasn't sure what they wanted. 

He guessed that maybe they wanted to buy food but just then he saw the blond guy, Desmond with a patched face. To his chagrin he was pointing in his direction. He needed no one to tell him that he's the one being at, hence he thought about running but optioned against it besides it was self defense.

"Mr you are under arrest for physically assaulting Mr Desmond and that being said you have the right to remain silent" as one of the officers handcuffs him. 

"Sir please I am innocent. He was the one that started it" he pleads. Just then his boss appeared and asked what the issue was all about but after hearing the complaint he told them to go ahead with arresting him. 

'He had nothing to lose. I will find myself a better person besides I won't pay him his already worked salary since the week was the last of the month' he thought to himself and smiled mischievously.

Nathan was arrested and locked up in a cell without any charges against him. It took five days before Gena came to his rescue despite Nathan calling her since the day he was arrested. 

She wouldn't have been there if not for Mabel and Nathan's roommate's persuasion. He was later released but on condition of writing a heart tendered apology to Desmond Elliott. 

Mrs Gena also told him that he will pay him back the bail f*e before he can come back home.

After some days he went back to get his pay from his boss but just like he expected he threatened him with the police and that was how he lost his little paying job .

Mabel visited him after his release but in secret, people must not see her hanging around with the church rat. Only very few people knew that they all came from the same home but even when told one will deny it outrightly. 

Luiz and his younger sister were very comfortable and living a good life at school. Luiz was the school playboy while Mabel was the queen of the school. Luiz has always from time to time denied having any connection with Nathan. He also as of then warned him to stay clear of him at school. 

 ***

 

The day of the incident was on a Thursday during their first year in the University. Nathan was inside the school canteen munching on some crunches coupled with a nice coca cola drink.

As he enjoys himself he sees Luiz and his clique making merry in the canteen. After eating he went to pay on the counter but to his disappointment he couldn't find his paying card. He searched and searched but couldn't find it. The vendor did not take it easy with him because she saw it as a scheme for him to leave without paying.

She started ranting and this drew people's attention towards them. Nathan felt humiliated so he immediately headed to where Luiz was sitting with his friends.

Luiz was already entertaining himself with the scene. As he noticed that he was approaching him he started to give him a sign using his face and hand with the clear instruction not to come near him. 

Nathan saw this but pretended like someone who did not see it . 

"Bro please can you help me out in paying this lady?"

as he points to the lady who was standing on akimbo waiting for him. 

"Hey! hey! what's the meaning of this? who is your fucking brother? Are you on some substance?" he asked apprehensively. 

Nathan was taken aback, this dude is just denying me he thought to himself. 

"Luiz! Do you know this poor thing?" Hayley, one of Luiz 'many girlfriends asked with a demeaning look towards Nathan. 

"No babe what possible connection could I possibly have with this poverty ridden dude" he answered impulsively.

"You heard him man, go elsewhere and beg" Nicholas, Luiz’s best friend ordered as he stood up to confront him.

"I don't have all day boy pay me my fucking money" 

The vendor rants as she goes for Nathan's school bag.

 Everybody there could pay for the meal but still none came for his rescue. Rather they all sit, laugh, mock, cause and video the humiliating show. 

In the most dire moment a voice emerged and its dominant and ice cold tone brought silence to the whole noisy crowd. "Leave him! I will pay" Blake ordered as he gave the vendor his card.

Nathan was very grateful to Blake and he promised to pay him back but he turned it down. Later on Luiz called him and warned him never to come near him as far as he is in the University.

 "I can't be seen with a low budget being like you" he commented before ending the call.
