The Spectacular Sabastian Westchester

3

‘’Sorry, but we can’t employ you.’’ The woman who talked up her nose said.

‘’What, why not?’’ Sabastian asked.

She made a face as she stared at him. ‘’You just don’t fit our standard.’’

‘’And what standard is that?’’

‘’Well-‘’

‘’Let me guess, I’m a poor man.’’

She didn’t say anything.

‘’As if the other employees here are any better! You don’t even pay well enough, and your cheap ass has the nerve to say I’m poor.’’

Sabastian gathered up his thing and went to his next interview.

‘’Hmm… no.’’

‘’No?’’ Sabastian asked as the woman looked at him up and down.

‘’Yes, no. You just don’t fit my standard.’’

‘’But you didn’t even interview me ask yet.’’

‘’I don’t need to.’’

‘’And what are your standards.’’

‘’Well, this is a Louis Vuitton store, and my employees have to dress a certain way to attract guests. Look rich and you’ll be rich.’’

‘’Don’t you provide uniform?’’

She laughed. ‘’What do you think I am? All my employees wear their own clothes, which aren’t like yours. Faded, old and raggy.’’

‘’You act as if you own this place, you are just as replaceable as anyone here.’’

She laughed and shook her head. ‘’Young man, we sell to the rich folks here in Wisteria Hills, Calabasas, and other rich communities here in Misty Isle. I can’t have a rough looking man like you in here, that will be bad for business.’’

‘’I can’t believe this, you people who are actually nothing, but a worker bee are turning people away just because of how they look. But how can I build myself if you never give me a chance?’’

She shook her head. ‘’I can’t help you.’’

‘’Do you have a son?’’ Sabastian asked.

‘’I do?’’

‘’How would you feel if he came home and told you that he didn’t get a job because they didn’t think he was rich enough to work for them?’’

She didn’t reply.

‘’Exactly, just remember that there are plenty of people out there richer than you. So, you have no right looking down on me, because one day you and your son can be in the same position.’’

The woman laughed. ‘’That will never happen, my son goes to Wisteria Hill college, and everyone knows that it is the best university in all of Misty Isle.’’

Sebastian shrugged. ‘’I go there as well.’’

‘’Well, you won’t amount to nothing. My son will own his own company.’’

‘’Be careful how you judge people.’’

‘’Let me point you over to Content, the name doesn’t suit the place at all. But that’s where you belong and I’m sure you will find employment there.’’

Just then, Molly walked up to them.

‘’Eww, what are you doing in here? Don’t tell me you think you can afford anything in this store.’’

‘’Do you know him?’’ The store manager asked.

‘’Oh my God, no. He is just some poor loser at my school. He wants to be a bank teller or some other boring thing like that. But honestly, the only thing he’ll be is a street sweeper.’’ Molly laughed.

‘’He wanted a job here.’’

Molly gasped dramatically.

‘’If he should ever be an employee here, I’ll never shop in this store again.’’

‘’See, I told you. Just one look at you and I will lose all my customers.’’

On his way out, Sabastian hit a rank of men shirts over.

‘’I’ll call the cops!’’ The woman shouted.

When Sabastian got home, he noticed Ashley’s car outside.

He kicked off his shoes after getting inside and began to call her name.

‘’Ash! Are you home?’’

As he got closer to the bedroom, he could hear moaning.

Sabastian pushed the door open and froze.

He couldn’t believe his eyes.

His fiancé was below another man, moaning while he was grunting and asking her if she liked it.

‘’What the fuck!’’ Sabastian let out, not able to contain his anger anymore.

The man looked around and grinned.

‘’Who the fuck are you?’’

‘’Sabastain,’’ Ashley said at the same time.

The man looked shocked. ‘’Who are you?’’

‘’That is the worthless man I am dating,’’ Ashley told him.

Sabastain stumbled back, still not believing what he had just seen or heard Ashley say.

Ashley jumped off the bed and tried to hide her body.

‘’How could you do this?’’

Ashley said nothing as she began to put drag a shirt over her head.

The man pulled on his pants, in a hurry.

‘’I thought you were single.’’

‘’Shut up!’’ Ashley screamed at him.

‘’What are you doing here?’’ Ashley asked, coming out to where Sabastian was sitting with his head in his hands.

‘’I fucking live! How could you bring another man in our bed?’’

Ashley frowned. ‘’Our bed? The last time I checked, all this shit was paid for by me. I pay the rent and all the bills because you aren’t man enough to do shit. So, it’s not our bed, but my bed.’’

‘’What are you talking about? You know I’m in a bad position at the moment, I was even out just now looking for a job so I can match your status.’’

Ashley laughed in his face. ‘’Match my status, you are nothing but a poor son of a bitch! You can’t even keep a job, so how do you expect to match me? I am on the top of the ladder, Sabastian. You can never and will never reach to my level.’’

‘’How can you say all these things?’’ Sabastian shook his head. ‘’We are engaged.’’

‘’Because it’s true. I only dated you because I thought you were cute, I never meant for it to get this far! You aren’t the man for me Sabastian. My parents don’t even like you, they see you as nothing but an insect who we just can’t get rid of.’’

‘’If you felt that way, then why accept my proposal?’’

‘’I didn’t want you to be embarrassed before all those people. Do you think I would get married to a man who can’t even afford something as simple as a fucking ring?’’

Ashley took the ring off and threw it down before Sabastian. ‘’And just so you know, my father would never employe someone like you. Not even as a cleaner at his company.’’

Sabastain shook his head. ‘’All this time, why didn’t you just break up with me instead of wasting my time? You brought another man here, and now you belittle me before him.’’

Ashely rolled her eyes. ‘’Poor you, pun intended. I never wasted your time; you did that on your own. The signs were all there, you were just stupid and too blind to see that I never truly wanted you.’’

She then laughed. ‘’You even quit school to try and please me, how pathetic are you.’’

Sabastian got to his feet. ‘’No, I was blind to not seeing what a bitch you truly are.’’

Ashley’s face turned red and suddenly her hand shot out to slap Sabastian across the face.

‘’Never call me a bitch! You think you are all that, but you are just a poor man and will never come to nothing!’’

She then turned the man she was cheating with.

‘’Oliver, I’m sorry you have to experience all that.’’

Oliver shook his head. ‘’I have to go.’’

‘’What? I thought you liked me.’’

‘’That was before I knew you were engaged and before realizing you are a superficial bitch. If you think you only deserve a man with money, you need to do a self-examination because things like that never work out in any woman’s favor.’’

Ashely screamed at him. ‘’I don’t need you either! My daddy is rich and that’s all I need. Not men like you who won’t be able to give me the life I deserve!’’

Sabastian shook his head and left the apartment, not believing that the love of his life did this to him. He was ready and willing to give up school just to please her, he would have done anything just to make her happy.

“If you ask me, you dodged a bullet,’’ Oliver said, clapping Sabastian on the back.

Sabastain shook him off and tried to punch him in the face, but Oliver pushed him back and kicked his feet from under him.

‘’Come on punk, you are no match for me.’’ Oliver looked down at him.

Sabastian kicked him in the chest.

‘’Bastard!’’

Oliver laughed up at Sabastian. ‘’You haven’t won shit; I fucked your bitch, and you will always be a poor man. I don’t know why a scum like you is allowed to live here in Wisteria Hill.’’

Sabastian said nothing, because he was too distracted by the clothes Ashley was throwing out the window.

Oliver laughed.

Sabastian gathered up his things, gave one look at the apartment he had spent a year and half in and went to the closet pawn shop.

‘’How much is this worth?’’ Sabastian asked the old man how was sitting around the counter.

The man nodded. ‘’Let me take a closer look.’’

He took the ring from Sabastian and held it under a blue light.

‘’I can give you $800 dollars for it.’’

‘’What? I paid $1200 just yesterday to obtain that ring.’’

‘’Sorry, but the value went down since then and even so, it’s a fairly small diamond.’’

Sabastian took the money and hoped it would be enough to rent a small room on campus.

‘’Thanks.’’

But nothing for Sabastian went how he wanted it in his head.

He couldn’t get a place to rent for the little money he had, and as he sat there on the curb that led to the administration office, a car pulled up with heavy tints and loud music blasting on the inside.

‘’Well, if it isn’t the poor loser.’’ Molly laughed as she put her window down further.

‘’Why mock me Molly? You have the perfect life already, why belittle me when I have done nothing to you?’’

Molly frowned at him.

‘’Don’t talk to me street sweeper,’’ She then threw her frozen strawberry drink in Sabastian’s face.

‘’Honestly Molly?’’ Aaliyah said, coming up to the minor altercation.

Molly scoffed. ‘’Keep defending this poor loser, soon enough you will become just like him.’’

She then drove off and Aaliyah handed Sabastian a wet wipe.

‘’Sorry about her.’’

‘’Why apologize for someone else’s action, it’s not like you have any control over what she does and think of me.’’

‘’That’s true, but at the same time it’s not right for you to be treated like that.’’

Sabastain scoffed and got up. ‘’Ever since I was 18 and got kicked out of me parents house, life haven’t been the same for me.’’

‘’Oh, I’m sorry about that.’’

Sabastian scoffed and shook her head.

Not long after, Molly came by with campus security.

‘’That’s him, he has been harassing me.’’ She pointed at Sabastian as she fake sobbed.

‘’Are you sure ma’am.’’

‘’Yes, I am. I can never forget the face of someone who had assaulted me.’’

The security began to drag Sabastian away, not trying to hear what he had to say.

‘’Take it up with dean Hawk,’’ was all the security said.

When Sabastian looked back, Molly was smirking at him and even blew him a kiss.

They got to the dean's office and the security opened the door without knocking first.

Sabastian averted his eyes after seeing the dean with his head resting on the back of the sofa and a girl on her knees before him, with her head in his lap.

When he opened his eyes, he quickly pushed the girl away and fixed his clothes. ''I tell you to always knock before entering my office. This is my private quaters, not your bed room.''

''I was only praying, I swear,'' the girl said before hurrying out.

''What is this?'' The dean asked and the security explained.

''Dean Gerald, you have to believe me. I never touched or even spoken to Molly a day in my life.''

Dean Gerald shook his head. ''This is what I get for allowing street dogs as yourself in this school. Go get Molly, hopefully she won't press any charges.''

Not long after, Molly entered the office and up on seeing Sabastian she screamed and acted as if she was scared of him.

She then made up a lie about how Sabastian voilated her.

''Ok, get this thing out of here,'' dean Gerald waved the security off.

''But, you didn't listen to what I have to say.''

Dean Gerald waved Sabastian off and the security dragged him out the office.
