I Am Not A Clever Man Novels & Stories

His smile looks forced; something is troubling him. "Good evening, friends," he begins, straightening out his suit. "If you know me, you know that I'm not a man who is about sweet-coated words; I'm very straightforward with my talking because time is too precious to spend talking too much. And also, my English isn't that great, as you can tell." The whole room laughs. Well, everyone except me and Claude. Penny, however, thinks it's funny, her gapped-tooth smile wide and exposed as she laughs. Claude shoots her a warning look that ceases her laughter.

He continued to scorn me. "What's the matter, Ms. Carter? Have you become addicted to your act? You can't use this trick every single time. "By the way, if it is just an ankle fracture, you don't have to be so cautious. Don't pamper yourself so much." He slung an arm around the young woman affectionately and walked off. I watched his retreating figure and remained dazed for a long time. I could not understand how the man that I had loved for so long had become so despicable all of a sudden.

I emphasize the word ‘stupid’ to let him know what is the real meaning of stupid. This man is the real meaning of stupid! The man scoffed and then he held his hips. “Look, girl, you don’t know who I am so—,” he begins telling me calmly but I scoff the moment he starts telling me about himself. “I know… I know… You are a rich and bratty type of person who does not even know the meaning of the word ‘sorry’ and increases global warming by using a car with AC!”

Man said while smiling and patting his head. "Hah! He really thinks I'm just a normal dog! Oh dude! Let me tell you, I'm a wolf! Wolf!" Clever said arrogantly to himself. He can't accept how the man treat him like a normal dog, but on the second thought, he can't really blame it. Clever could smell the unpleasant smell of Dog food, but he had to eat it because the man was watching him. Why is it that, this is the first way he thought of and did not think of another solution to escape from the enemies! He scolded himself.

"It's not that you're foolish, it's that men are just despicable." Her words left me silent for a long time. With a strained voice, I said, "I want to try again."

"But even in his foolishness, he is a lot wiser than you.” Oh, he did not!

The man looks at his fellow members and growls from laughter, "My dear friend, which century are you from." "Oh, you do not want to know." He looks me over from head to toe, "Are you also one of those strange men that live in that house?" "That, my dear friend, is something that you really do not want to know." "Well," the man reaches out to grab my hand, "You are taking us inside there." "What makes you think that you can make me follow you? Do you truly think that I am that stupid?" "You were stupid enough to fall in that hole; I guess you are not very clever with anything either."

No matter what I say to him now will make a difference in how I feel. "I just did not work out. I think that I am truly just a package of damaged good." "Don't ever think of yourself that way. You are a very good man, and any girl that does not want to be on your arms is just a fool." With that, I finish off what will be my last cup of the best and say my goodbyes to Mr. SinClair too. Leaving him with a promise that I shall return, which will be a promise that I am not going to keep, I make my way out the door.

One who is truly fool and ignorant wont have that kind of courage to speak such big things. “You sound so boastful” “But I am just speaking the truth, nothing less than what is the fact” He may sound like that annoying kid who have everything you are wishing of but havig a kind of personality that is less than what any normal goo people would have but why do I feel like this person I am talkking to isn't as annoying as those others in my age? How weird

"The only thing you did was prove you're not playing with a full deck, little pet." And then the door shut with a loud thud, and the lights went out, leaving me alone in the dark with just the echo of his words. '...not playing with a full deck...'Someone that lacks intelligence. Oh God. I just turned up the heat in the hell I'm currently in.
