Survival Of The Game

Inveigled Mission.

*zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!*

The loud buzzing sound of the alarm clock made him jerk out of his bed.

"Oh yeah I got it , I got it" hitting the alarm on the nightstand beside his bed to a stop.

He hastily got out of his relaxing bed, hearing the cracks of his bones, as he contract is back and arms. Hu

Jack was heading to his walldrope to get his work clothes ready, he opened with it with a force , because it is sometimes hard to open.

The clothes wasn't there, where could it be? Huh? I didn't wash it yesterday? What do I wear to work now? His face head folded into four layers, thinking of what to do.

"Oh f**k wait a minute!" I'm now into the unemployed category.

"Oh s**t" he kicked the hard wood bed, making his foot to twist.

He thought it was work day, the alarm usually wakes him up at exact 7am to prepare him for work.

"I understand, you will be fine" Ella got into his room from nowhere consoling him, had she noticed all that had happened just now?

" Well just move on, think of what to do next and make sure you eat, I made breakfast. Grab some before you go out." Ella announced as she grabbed her pink droopy school bag.

"Hmmm" he nodded, waving a good bye to her.

After getting his mind back, his stomach began to groan.

" s**t, so quick?" he felt his grumpy stomach with his hand, heading towards the kitchen. Ella did say he kept some food for him.

He hastily took up the lid of the pot, digging in his fork to eat what she made.

While consuming on the green vegetable rice hastily, as if he was being chased by some strange creature, he got a text message. What does it says?

"Huh what's that he got up to grab his phone"

" Credit?, how ?" He was baffled perplexity crept unto his paled face and unto his skin, feeling goosebumps.

"Wait a minute" he checked the name of the sender, it was from the company. That was their back name.

" Did the bastard decide to pay their salary for the month now?"

"Oh good lord!" he burst into joy, bouncing off the walls he was full of nervous energy.

He has some money now, at least it was better than having nothing at all and being broke totally.

After receiving the alert, a sum of 50k pounds, he began looking for his ATM card, he knew what to do to increase his funds.

He has been introduced into an investment that increases fun according to their principles.

"Yeah Benjamin introduce him into it, now he got the money he wants to invest.

Yeah let me introduce Benjamin, Benjamin is Jack's childhood friend, they've lived all their lives together right from secondary school.

Jack arrived at the automated teller machine to withdraw the money, he insert the card into it and followed the instructions.

" Pick up your call bro!" he gnash his teeth, he was calling Benjamin after withdrawal. He really needs to invest the money before he spent it. Mr man was taking forever to pick up his cell phone.

"Hello!" He finally picked up the damn phone.

"Yeah it's me" he giggled.

" I'm ready to invest now"

"OK meet me at the bar" he responded.

The bar was their favorite spot, where the while away time after working out their ass out.

He did as he said, waiting patiently for him , little does he know what would happen next.

Benjamin arrived at the within thirty minutes, he probably was close by if not his house was actually far, that would take him two hours to get here. He sometimes stays around, his mom lives close by in the neighborhood.

"Yo! man" he took his right hand in his own for a few moments, moving it up and down slightly.

"Whats up, I'm going to give you a form to fill right away, and a document to sign on."

"Sure alright" he nodded.

They were sitting at the beer partition, on the red couch. The bar was usually noisy guys and ladies on every sides drinking and doing their s**t.

Jack inscribed his signature without reading it properly, he didn't do normal reading by taking time his time to go through the documents, he just skim through reading details was not really his thing. Especially anything that has terms and condition he just clicks on "I agree" without going through. He hastily filled out the form .

The form was something to hoax you, or swindle you into speculating it was a true deal.

He invested 40k believing it will double up in a month time.

After signing the document he went out to squander the money by buying stuffs that ain't needful, instead of going to settle his debts with the vendors in his neighborhood.

Jack arrived home before Ella, he went straight to the kitchen to prepare some sauce he got on his way back.

A creaking sound of the door was heard while he was still making dinner. That should be Ella, why was she late today? It was passed 7pm , she was meant to be home at least 6:30pm.

"Hey sis what's up?" he walked out of the kitchen holding the dishrag in his left hand.

"Why are you coming home this late " he furrowed his brow.

"Hey bro what is popping, what is the celebration all about" she was sniffing her nose as she tried avoiding his questions.

" Oh that" he was gesturing while he talked.

" That was a miracle sis" he giggled.

"Oh yeah , tell me" she gulp.

" Oh hold on, I asked you a question" she quickly close her teeth , well he caught her trying to wave the questions off.

"OK bro, I got a part time job so I could help with the bills, she shut her eyes as she speak. Doesn't want to witness his reaction.

"You what!" he snarled

"Hey Ella you are too young for that" reducing his tone, he doesn't want to be too harsh on her, beyond everything she wanted to make things easy for him.

"I need I just want to help" she screamed, her eyes still shut avoiding her eyes meeting with his.

"I know Ella, but you don't need to do that, your elder brother will figure everything out, we will be fine soon.

"I'm gonna get another job, I will start looking for and yeah I'm also doing anything investment that will bring us money too" he explained like he was talking to a six years old child, anyway Ella will always remain small in his eyes, since he has watch her grow up to this stage.

" Are you sure?" She lowered her head , moving in close proximity to Jack, curving a smile on her face.

Hmm is he truly going to get another job or a he got into a dire straits Instead? Watch out a snowball's chance in hell.
