Michael reached Marium street, which was one of the poorest & dirtiest streets of the city. But as very small houses are here & available at a cheaper rate, a lot of poor people were living there. His rented house was also here.
Michael entered inside his home & saw his grandmother was resting on a bed. Even though she was sleeping, she was not comfortable partly due to pain & partly due to the condition of the bed which was too bad for use.
It was a house that had 1 hall which was used as a bedroom, a kitchen & a bathroom with an attached toilet. There was not much furniture either. Just 2 old chairs & a small table was there. There was a fridge which was not in a working condition. After entering his home, One would easily presume how much bad condition Michael was in.
He closed the door & was about to sit on a chair to think what to do about money. But his grandmother suddenly woke up by voice & asked…
“Is that you Mikey, don’t you have to attend your classes?”
“No Nani, classes today got cancelled.” Michael lied. What other option did he have?
“Ok, somebody gave the envelope. It’s on the table. Your name was on it. It must be from your college.” Nani said.
A sudden fear came in Michael’s mind. He was given time till evening. Did he get expelled from college already? He knew John was so influential that by just over a phone call, he could make this happen.
He gathered courage & picked up an envelope. His hands were trembling. However he saw the address of Moscow, Russia on the other side.
He was surprised. Who would send him a letter from Russia? He didn't know anyone from russia. He didn’t have any other known family. So who is this? With thinking about that curiously He took out the letter & started reading.
“Dear Mike, you don’t know me. But I am your Dad. I missed you a lot. I didn’t contact you these years because I wanted to become the most powerful person in the country. After so much hard work, i have achieved my goals. I Know you won’t believe me. You will have so many questions. I will answer all your questions once I am back. I have kept my eyes over you all these years. Don’t worry son. Dad is here to take care of you. I am sending you 10 million dollars in your account for your basic needs & treatment of Nani. I have also attached my phone number. Call me if you need more money anytime. See you.”
Michael was stunned. He couldn't stand anymore & sat on a chair. He just couldn’t believe it. How was this possible? All he knew about his mom & dad was that his mom died in a car crash & his dad left him & his Nani when he was 5 years old. His Nani told this to him many times. There was no news of his dad afterwards. So they thought he would be dead. Was it a fake letter or didi his dad really show up now? But if he is really my dad, why didn't he contact me till now? Why did he let us suffer if he was alive? His mind was surrounded with lots of questions.
Suddenly a thought came in his mind. His dad mentioned in a letter that he had transferred 10 million dollars in his account. He rushed to an ATM nearby to check his account balance. While walking, he thought it's impossible that some random person just transferred such a large amount to an ordinary guy like him. And how would he get my account number? I'm silly to believe this. This must be a prank by his classmates.
However, after entering inside the ATM & clicking on the check balance, his mind was wishing that it would be true.
A slip came out of the machine. Michael looked at the balance & immediately shouted in disbelief…”Oh F**k!!!!!!!!
It showed 1,00,00,010$
Michael had a 10$ balance before. But now it really showed 10 million dollars. It was transferred 1 week before. But he never checked it because he knew his bank balance. He didn’t even update his mobile number to his account. So he couldn’t get a message too about receiving the money.
His life was about to go on a drastic turn………..
“Mike, r u coming or not? We're getting late for class.” Emily shouted from outside.“Yes, just a sec.” reply came from inside.It was the 1st year of undergraduate college. Mike & Emily met on the first day of the college & instantly connected. They had similar interests. They both came from poor families & focused on studying hard to get success. Both were scholars from their respective schools & front benchers in the class. Emily was impressed by Michael’s looks & smart answers. Although he was poor, she thought she would have a great future with him.About Emily, she was a beautiful girl with great curves at the right spots. As she was poor & couldn’t wear expensive clothes or style her hair or any makeup, her beauty would not be recognized easily. She often stood in front of the mirror after bath & praised her beauty by herself. After seei
Without waiting for an answer, Jay held Emily’s hand & took her to the dance floor. Emily felt a current passing through her body as she felt his hand. She couldn’t resist him & walked with him.When couples started dancing to his favorite tune, Michael was about to stand to go to Emily & ask her for a dance. However he saw Emily going to the dance floor holding Jay’s hand. He felt disappointed. It was his fault as he didnt know how to express his feelings for her. Otherwise she would be walking with him to the dance floor. He sat back to his chair & saw them starting to dance.Jay put his both hands around Emily’s waist & started to move to the rhythm. Emily was hesisting. So Jay held her both hands & put them around his neck & started dancing.It was the most beautiful feeling Emily felt in recent times. She had received so much respect tonight. She was
May I come in Sir?” Michael asked at the entrance of Dean’s office door.“Come in” A husky voice came from inside.Michael entered & stood in front of Mr.Crowley, The dean of his college.“Who are you? & what do you want?” Mr.Crowley asked arrogantly.“Sir, I am a 1st year student of this college.I am here to request you”.Michael said in a pleading voice.“Request? What do you want?”“Sir, I come from a very poor family background. I have paid my whole academic college fees somehow. Now I can't pay for e-learning fees.so I request you to exempt me from paying that fee.”“What? No way. Who are you? You are just a poor ba****d. You can’t even afford to wear shoes & want a special treatment? You are not a VIP. if you can’t pay the fees, leav
After dinner, Emily was in her bed trying to sleep. It was almost 11 pm but she couldn’t sleep. Stress of arranging money won’t let her relax a bit.Suddenly her phone vibrated.“Hello beautiful.” a message pops up on her screen. It was Jay. she saved his number last time. She was in a bad mood. She felt broken & left out both by Michael & her dad today.“Won’t you ever reply?” another message came.Emily needed someone right now.& she was comfortable with Jay. so she decided to have a chat with him.“Hi Jay. how are you?” she replied.“Ohh, so you haven’t forgotten me. That’s good for me. I am fine. How’s you?” reply came almost immediately.Emily felt her heart rate racing. She felt different while talking to this guy. But how did he get her
Meanwhile Michael was also in so much stress today. His visit to Dean didn’t go as planned.Now, he had to pay these fees,otherwise he won't be able to study further & all his future plans depended on this degree.He was so much in thought, he didn’t realise when his nani came in his room & put her hand on his hair and pampered him. She said “Mikey.”“Yes Nani.”“I was calling you from the kitchen for dinner but you didn’t hear it.what are you thinking about,Mikey? Is there any problem?”“No Nani, don’t worry. I was just thinking about my study.Nothing that i can’t handle.”Michael tried his best to cover up.“Ha ha...don’t think much.Health is more important.Let’s go and eat.”Nani said.“Sure Nani.I will be there in a minute.”
Phone vibrated as Emily was getting ready in the morning. She saw it was Jay’s call. She immediately received it.“Hello.““Hi Emily, I am outside your house. Are you ready?” A humble voice of Jay came from the other side.“Give me 5 minutes. I will be there.” she only could say that.When Emily came outside, she saw Jay standing out of his BMW & his eyes were looking for her. When he saw her, he waved his hand with a smile. He thought she was looking so gorgeous even in these clothes. Emily wore a routine t-shirt & jeans. But it was revealing her amazing figure.Emily came towards him & said hii.Jay opened the car door for her & asked Emily to sit.Emily was surprised as well as feeling excited. She never expected that A rich man like Jay would open the car door for her.S
“True. He can’t afford such a reputed college.” one guy said. “Out Michael out. Out Michael out.” all started chanting it. Michael couldn’t believe his ears. He had a habit of being humiliated by everyone. He didn’t mind that much now. But how can Emily say this about him? He was her boyfriend after all. Why was she suddenly changed? This was not Emily that he loved. He decided to talk with her after college in the evening. He sighed & left the class. But there was one person who was even more surprised & shocked than Michael. It was Andria Nilson. She knew Michael & Emily were good friends. Although she didn’t know about their relationship yet, but She predicted that by their behaviour. Something was there between them beyond friendship. How could she suddenly talk about Michaerl like this? Why did she humiliate him? Was that because now she has become a hot topic amongst all peo
Next day, Michael was waiting for Emily to go to college. Although his mind knew that she wouldn't come, his heart was not willing to accept that. He waited for a long time. Then he realized that it was already very late. If he did not start to walk now, he would definitely be late. He sighed & started walking towards the college.“Beep...Beep…” suddenly a car stopped behind him & started honking.He saw that it was Andria. It was a black Mercedes Benz car. Andria came out of the car & said: “Hey loser, let me give you lift.come inside the car.”“It’s ok. I will go by myself.” Michael replied.“Look at the time idiot. You won’t reach in time. Do you want to get insulted by the teacher again?” Andria asked in surprise.She was right. Michael looked at his watch. There was no way he would r
