”Oh no! Where did I put that money ? I can't believe I lost it" I said as I checked all my pockets repeatedly but the wad of money was nowhere to be seen. "How could this be," I thought to myself because I knew that I had double checked it before I left home. How embarrassing it was to go out on an expensive date and can't pay for it, but little did I know that this was the only the first in my long line of misfortune.

     My beautiful girlfriend Abbey had just gotten back from talking to one of her old colleagues who had been sitting at the table opposite to us just as the waitress came to take our order. I did not want to tell Abbey that I didn't have the money so I let her order thinking that I might be able to create a tab once it was under the limit of $2000 dollars. But I was not expecting her to buy the most expensive food on the menu and the most expensive wine they had. After seeing that I decided to save myself the heart ache and just order some water but Abbey said that I needed a meal fit for a king so she ordered a plate of food with a name so French I can't pronounce it without having my tounge twisted into a pretzel.

    When the waitress bought the food I could not resist it, with the plate well layed out in front of me with so many different ingredients all mixed together as I took that bite it was almost like I was transported into an alternate universe full of happiness and delight. After eating my belly full the waitress brought the bill for me my eyes nearly popped out of my head as I saw the price $3400 .

    On thant note I decided to make a run for it I held Abbey by the arm and darted outside without being spotted telling her about the predicament along the way. She went on and on about how much of a lazy, irresponsible stupid idiot I was then walked away. I went to get my car but to my surprise it had been towed. So with no money, I decided to take the 2 killometer walk to my home. While walking and feeling sorry for myself I passed this ally where gang members talking when I heard one of them say "Keshon" and darted after me followed by the rest of the gang. In an effort to get away I ran as fast as my legs could carry me until I tripped on a stone and fell to the ground where I was beaten severely by the gang.

      The next thing I remember is I was lying in a hospital bed with several bruises all over me and sharp pain in my abdomen every time I move. "lord, what's next!" I said just when I heard a heavy nock and a familiar voice come from behind the door sending my heart into a rampage
