THE MAGNIFICENT THRILLONAIRE

Damian's Pov • It was a cool evening, i and my friends were busy having a wonderful time in our dorm here in school. We were the final year students in Emerald University, and I was about to graduate from the Business Administration department, and since we all just finished our project in our respective departments and was also not occupied, we had a free time to gist and discuss. I am so lucky and glad, to have such guys as my dorm-mates and friends. We were not related in anyway, but our love for each other kept us going and I loved it. While we happily discussed about the issue that occured in school earlier that day, my phone beeped and I made to check what the notification was all about, and when I saw the notification on my phone, I realized, it was a message from Alicia, my girlfriend, and I smiled. Alicia and I started dating not too long ago, she was also a final year student in the public administrative department and ever since the first day I saw her in school, I loved her, but lacked the ways to get her. It was a funny chase I made after her, and after much chasing and warnings, she finally accepted to date me, but insisted I keep it a secret, from everyone. And despite how much I wanted the whole world to know that I was dating such a beauty queen like her, I didn't want to go against her wish, but of course, I told my dorm mates and warned them to keep it a secret from everyone else, Cool right? Immediately, I saw the message she sent on w******p, I didn't know when the joy in me took my butts off the bed and I saw myself walking out the door. I was sure my dorm mates didn't notice I was leaving, they were all focused on their discussions and funny gist that they didn't know when I walked out of the door, and I slowly shut the door to avoid the hideous noise of it closing. On reaching outside, I felt the warmness of the earth, drowning herself on me and I smiled. I suddenly began thinking of Alicia, and how sweet it would be to kiss her in the warmness of this kind of weather, but I knew it was all a dream. I and Alicia has been in this relationship for quite a month now, and neither has she let me touch her, nor kiss her. I wonder why she does that, but seriously, I don't care, as long as I had her to myself, I was satisfied. I unlocked my phone, then hastily logged into my w******p, I wanted to make her message so special, so since I had several other messages waiting to be replied, I decided to check them first. After I was done with that, I smiled, it was time to read her sweet message. Without hesitating anymore, and gently clicked on her message and our chats displayed on the screen of my 'Tecno A2' like it was a television. I began reading the message with utmost joy and excitement, but when I got to a point, I suddenly became confused. Was I seeing this right? Alicia wants a breakup? But why? How? Why? I haven't done anything to deserve a breakup, Or have i? Asking myself this silly question, my heart came shattering into pieces, bit by bit, and I knew it was over for me. My friends and Alicia were the only ones I had in the whole world. I grew up as an orphan, and since then, I hustled to take care of myself, and up till date, I was engaged in so many part time jobs just to make ends meet, and now, Alicia wants to break up with me. I titled my head and rested them on my left knee, still staring at the phone, a drop of tear escaped my eyes. While still thinking of the issue and how to resolve it, I heard the door of our dormitory opening behind me, and soon enough, my friends Joined me where I was sitted. "Damian Creed! what'sup?" Benjamin, my closest dorm mate said to me while he sat on my left hand side and wrapped his hands around my neck. He was fond of calling my first and last name together, despite all my warnings, he continued, but that's by the way. "Am doomed." I spoke In a weak tone and I could swear that Benjamin understood what I meant already. "Huh? Bro, what do you mean by you are doomed?" Conner who was part of our dorm mate, said to me but I didn't care about that question. "Damian, talk too us, we might be of help." Drake, another of my dorm mate, spoke as well but I ignored. I was strucked with shock already, and when I got myself after some minutes, I stood up and went back to the dorm not minding if my friends would feel bad. I got in, and crashed on my bed, I needed to be asleep as soon as possible, cause I wanted to see her tomorrow to ask the reason for our break up. The moon was full tonight, and I quickly made a wish, before closing my eyes in deep thoughts. ....... The next time I opened my eyes, it was morning already and the sun was blazing hot. I knew I didn't sleep well, cause I felt a sharp pain around my abdomen immediately. I sighed, as my mind flashed back to what happened yesterday, God! I was indeed doomed. I tilted my head sideways to see if my friends were up yet, but none of them were up and I sighed again. I got up from the bed and stood on the marbled floor, trying to actually reason my life. What was wrong with me? Was I cursed? I asked myself complicated questions more than that, and it was then, I remembered, I had an urgent class by 8'. Without wasting much time, I rushed to take my bath, brushed my teeth, then took my wallet. I opened it to check how much I had left, and I discovered, I was having only $50 left. I smiled, I have worked on several sites this week, but none was yet to pay me on my Payoneer account, but nevertheless, this $50 would do for today. I have Always had the dream of working for a very big company, a company where I can get paid in six fugures, own a house and live luxurious life with my woman. Life has been somehow unfair and really dramatic to me, but I know there is a Great future ahead, am sure of it. I faked a smile, brushed my hair and then, I left, without looking back, I had some issues to solve. • • When I arrived at school, I noticed that a lot of students were outside, busy doing one thing or the other that I knew nothing about, but I didn't care to ask, cause I knew no one would try to explain too me. I was looked down upon, maybe because am the most poorest guy on campus. But me being the poorest guy doesn't mean I was the dumbest guy. I was very intelligent and the best in my department. I was the course rep for lost lecturers, while others made me their announcer, but I loved working for lectures with my whole heart, it made me remember that I would come to live over this hardship someday, somehow. While I was busy, thinking about all this, I didn't know what pushed me into pulling up my head and the first thing I saw, was her, Alicia of course. Standing with her friends at the entrance to the school clinic, she looked like an angel from this side of view. How I managed to get her to love me was something I didn't know, and how she wanted us to breakup was something I didn't know as well. I have to confront her and asked her why she broke up with me, maybe, she might change her mind, that I was not sure of.
