Eleventh Hour

The flippant friends

Results are out, a knock on the Ocean's door in the mid day. He was tired of responding with insistence because was sleeping in the daylight. He saw Wave, Tyrion with their remaining friends, later sluggishly opening of the door.

“The results are out, get dressed to hike to the café”. Said Tyrion.

“Stop the prank, what result could that be? It was said to be released by next week. The president said,” Ocean reminded them.

“Here is the message sent to the group on f*******:,” Wave showed the message to Ocean.

Ocean stood to his feet to get dressed, his friends couldn’t sit because they’re in haste. They went to the close by cafe down the street.

It was the 200L result that was released just now. They walked as fast as they could so they could get to the café in a brief time. Minutes later they arrived without a waste of time.

“Hi, we want a check for our results, you are operative huh?” Ganes asked from the café man.

“Man, so far you could afford my charges,I won't slay more minutes," the Café man responded.

“Is that really high, the charges? The cash on me won’t be sufficient to stay extra minutes here, I can’t really give such an amount out on this,” Ocean was confused.

“Make way for customers if you don’t pay the charges, here is no ordinary café. Look for one more café around to ask their charges set side by side with the expenses here. Furthermore, we confer quality work here,” the café man affirmed.

“Don’t send your customer our friend away from here. We walked here together, if he should have to take off we shall go before him then,” Wave spoke out angrily.

“We should pay huh? We will, but, who pays, it doesn’t matter to you. Just log on this site so we could take leave without busting many times,” Gabriel concluded.

“OK, there is no pressure, I am good at it,” The café man replied and logged on his computer.

They sat down each on a bar stool with terror in their heart. The site isn't as fluent as norms, the network is trafficked when it has larger users available on it.

The result was freshly released with the decree from the authority. Many who checked theirs comment on mass failure. This terror stays behind their heart, they could knock down the computer if it is chanceful because of the network failure. But the cafe man didn't quit, he tried an indefinite browser he had on his computer to get a way out. Thankfully the network was recovered.

Ganes was bright to stand to his feet to gesticulate to the renewed network. It was never accomplished, Ocean told him to pay attention to the death above. He was more astonished, which death could be on the upper surface? Before this time he strives to lift his hands. He attempted to understand what Ocean meant before raising his hands. He looked up without delay and behold the wind fan, running and prepared to feed reckless hands to the demon.

“Oh, gosh! Was I that excited? Yet the resultant of being here is not yet positive,” Said Ganes and have a sluggish seat.

“It’s back, who is going first? The café man asked.

Ganes logged on earlier than everybody, his result was not poor yet it demands for improvement. Every other person checked theirs, Ganes result surpassed the remnants in addition to Ocean.

Ocean has more pass with little or no distinctions. It’s not cheering later his vigil to be doubtless about his result to the extent of taking "Modafinil pills." He rates below Ganes and over the remnant friends.

Gabriel had the worst in the list, he barely passed. The rise of his result ends with fair or something worse. It is ridiculous which explained how playful he could have been.

Even if all results would be fair or poor at least it is buoyantly heard than wave who had missing grade and abstention in nearly one of the two equal parts of the courses he offered. Those courses he behold the result, it was each fair. Wave was neither happy nor uncomfortable, he was able to joke rather than weeping.

Ganes who have splendid results discharged half of their bills, for this purpose the remnant put money together and pay off the balance. The café man was fortunate on that day, the smile on his face couldn’t fade on the instant, he made a good sale.

During the wayfare back home, nearly all of them were chatting. On a norm they should be brooding for their up to date performance nonetheless Ganes deserves most things they’re doing.

They cheers and constitute collective jokes started up by Wave together with the comical friends. The walking was a displeasure which irritate Ocean to wonder why his friends are retarded, nearly all of them. He was dumb for them later his persuadedness to acelerate their moves since it is going black.

By nightfall Ocean alone sits in his room thinking about the café scenario. He was ridiculed and humiliated that he would be forced out if he was present there without his friends. One more obstacle he think again was that he was a failure, he concluded on that. Nevertheless he was faultless because the failure to buy handouts gives out the dissatisfactory results which are expensive compared to his friends of poor performances. Certain numbers of people would have been cheerful to be in Ocean shoe.

Failure to purchase the handout was totally his father's status, lacking the ability to make available the family necessity. Ocean receives not sufficient money to pay for everyday expenses in and out of the campus. He was able to buy beneath half of the handouts of the courses he offered. He takes sleepless pills many times to assimilate more because he loves to read in the night when it is noise free. Besides, he is addicted to it.

He brought to air his diary, opened to a fresh page, merged the date and time then grabbed the biro and started up a write .

“My result is melancholy to the heart that I couldn’t live over it now and am regretful to have failed. Many wished to be in my posture but I wished differ things. My Dad would query this and think I am all at fault. Maybe my habit of reading or my attention for school is low. He would say displeasing things to me but the excuse to arrive at this failure he won’t wait to hear.

This problem started from him, I can’t afford a number of things in the school. My handout, wee expenses, presentations and many more. I missed them all.

I hoped to be prosperous at some time in future, to have a delightful life and live far and more than my dreams. To relieve my dad as well.

Today is one of the worst days of my life; I was humiliated, I had disappointing results, I was broke. It was as if all the world's assailants were on me. I hoped to have no call for today”.

He locked the diary inside the drawer to see the real world. He missed his dad's calls when he checked his phone. During the attempt to call back his dad, he recalled he exhausted his credit lately. He put away the phone to observe if he could live for days with the remnant of his foodstuffs. Luckily his dad called back, he speed to the phone to answer the call.

“Hello Ocean, I called you countless times not long ago but you didn’t answer it. I set to reach you many more times but you were unable to be reached. Why?” His Dad asked.

“My apologies sire, I went for a check on my result, I wasn’t agile until now. Besides I saw the calls lately but I hold no credit to call you,” Ocean responded and hoped his dad won't talk about the result aspect.

“So how were the results?”

Ocean was affeared when he received the word “result” as if it was the peerless word that constitutes the question.

“Actually it was fine”. Said Ocean. From that time that he was afraid to reveal it to his father, he concluded to speak the one’s he had best grades. “Six of them were released for now where I have four good and two fair. It is not bad nor pleasing except that I have no fail,” Ocean responded.

“Is that enough? You should have an excellent score of at least six and more. Be certain to work towards that and report your result to me when the semester is over, I would be home by that time,”

The call was disconnected, Ocean in his mind knows he can’t show his father the result because it will start one more problem. Over and above that he was happy to escape his Dad's anger during the call. His Dad was never cruel nor self-centered but sometimes he needed an exhibit to make a lot of things straight yet he was the best Dad ever.

Days later, the foodstuffs are finished, he does not hold any cash to overlive the week. He borrowed Wave handset to get to his parents for a relief. So he dialed Mum's number, instantly it rang but she was not available to receive a call or none because she was busy cooking in the kitchen, leaving behind her phone in the bedroom. Without a lot of worries he called Dad, it was the same saying. “Things are rough”. For days he got similar quotes from Dad together with Mum.

Wave and Ocean, since they were best friends. He would eat from Wave pot, spend lengthy time with him, at some point in time they would sleep together. It never stopped, wave would buy many and more things related to food or other stuff outside so they could enjoy together. He would still lend Ocean money to cover pressing school work. He was absolutely a heartfelt friend that anyone could wish to have.
