The Nerd Who Played the Game
"Ungrateful wolf! We raised you, but you hid abroad, not sending a penny home. Now you're some big designer, thinking you can ditch us? No chance!"

"How much are you making a month now? Hand it over. That's our family money."
My dad banged on the front desk like a total thug. My mom plopped on the floor, slapping her thighs and wailing dramatically.
Her acting was lousy, but effective. Their stares hooked me like a gold mine.
Security intervened, but my dad shoved them back.
The scene was total chaos.
