Kingmaker - 10-16

The image of the family never 'faltered' him for he was a boy of very young age to understand such complex human emotions. He had the conscience that he was not performing well in his academics but he couldn't help it in anyway for he had no habit of reading books nor devoting some time for academics. All his activities were directed in a single direction 'Hedonism'. He was provided with facilities and the food to cherish and a good amount of 'bad' friends to eulogise about him in his presence and disparage him at his absence. To be true he was what he was said at his back. His parents fearing their son's current stature and again in an attempt to provide better education decided to move to an even more sophisticated life style. It was a life style that exhibited these characteristics - Living in multi storey buildings having a colony like thing and form an association for the colony and a 'legacy' club for the colony where only the colony members are allowed to join and participate in what is called 'recreational activities'(One can argue with atmost confidence that these colony members have their descendants from africa for they exhibit the worst tribal form of entertainment like running around a chair).

Their first attempt initially failed as the boy was not accepted in any of the schools that were in the 'sophisticated' lifestyle prone section of their state. One of his aunts had great influence in a school and that the head mistress of the school accepted to take the ward even though he pathetically failed to fulfill any of their criteria. But the boy refused to join the school-First act of dignity. In an attempt to vent out his sorrow and anger towards him he went inside a room and started to weep badly for he was an ordinary boy without much productivity- a nincompoop.
