EPISODE 23-THE REDEMPTION



Its time dude the shops are getting closed, Eric," announced standing beside John .John noticed few shop keepers lowered the steel shutters over the store windows, secured the back door, and locked the cash register."When you're finished why we are still waiting can we leave “said Eric. John came to the attorneys place in a old moped which is used by his dad. It was almost 10 pm when they started and so John knew if he delays further he might be caught by his parents, coz according to them John had gone to study center.

Eric had worked as a promoter for a camping equipment store called, "Venture Outdoors" for few months. He enjoyed the work, and the pay didn't hurt either. Once in a while, Mathew, the coordinator of "Venture Outdoors," would collect the names of a few people who wanted to go camping, but were too inexperienced to go by themselves. After each person had paid a nominal sum, John would furnish the required supplies. As Mathew for a guide, he would lead them to the best camp sights and instruct them in the do's and don'ts of outdoor survival. Depending on the humor of the city dwellers who were unused to "roughing it," the camping trip would last three to five days.

Thinking the old Joy’s John inhaled a deep breath of fresh Montana air and started his dad’s old Moped, on the way back home he dropped Eric and thanked him for his timely help.

Back at the house, John was still consumed with his bad experience. He was totally exhausted but things are not over yet, his proactive thought disturbed him more when he started thinking the future consequence of his other business customers and the risk that may come in coz of Kenneth. So he decided to take off Kenneth and carry out the business himself.

The telephone rang, breaking into his concentration. It was Kennedy reminding him about the mortgaged mobile, soon interrupted Wilson, why are you using your old mobile, where is your new mobile??? John somehow managed to tackle the situation by saying that some new software’s to be installed in the new mobile so he had given it for that. The sun had long ago retired behind the steep Montana Mountains, leaving a dark blanket of black to cover the sky. Not even the moon could be seen tonight, John peeped through his bedroom window It was dark outside. The dark trees whizzed by his window as John made the slow move to his couch. He tried to reason away the thoughts in his mind. Suddenly his mobile lighted up brightly with a vibration, there was a text from someone but the mobile displayed no name, the number was new to John the message was “Hey john why didn’t you turn up to college today and I felt very bored without you”, John couldn’t make out who it was but was sure it was his classmate. For more than one hour the person didn’t say who it was .so John got irritated so he grouched and went to sleep. The next day he went to college and his gang was very much worries and upset for what happened. Kenneth walked towards him and apologized for what happened, but John never felt pity for him. Martha felt embarrassed for what Kenneth did and she started neglecting him and also revealed her true colors .He found Ellen sad the whole day, in the evening John noticed Ellen crying too but John already had enough problem and he didn’t want to add more to it. Later after a couple of days ago John came to know that it was none other than Ellen who messaged him the other night. John never took things too seriously in life, coz John believed that everything that is happening is according to god’s wish and nothing can change its course.

It was one in the morning by the time John was back in front of his house. After thinking up a reasonable excuse for being late to college, he started to college he saw the post man approaching him to deliver some letter. The letter was from contemporary arts and crafts-UK. John Got selected to take part in the next round of the painting competition which was scheduled to be held on 14th of April 2006, in Brooklyn. John was both happy and sad. It was like a paradox to him. He thanked god for showing the way to repay his debts and also there is a check here, the same day John had semester examination also he had an arrear of his first semester which also fell in the same date. Which means John will not be able to start even by 6pm, coz from 10am-5pm he’ll be writing exam.

Moreover he has not travelled such a long distance alone. But he has to participate; this was the only way to settle his debts and also to achieve his goal. John prepared so well that he was so confident that he’ll clear both his arrear paper. It was almost the end of the semester John came to know that Kenneth misbehaved to Ellen also and he forced her to love Sutler.Sutler who is from a Rich background was the brain behind all the evil thoughts of Kenneth. He drove him in the wrong path and misled him and ultimately ruined his character. John’s dead line to redeem his mobile was a big pressure for him. Garry for the first time in his life decided to approach his mom for a loan to help out a friend. She can get it from some pawnbroker in her circle. Garry a person with simple thoughts, typical sage is very loyal, romantic in his thoughts and once he counts u close, he holds u high up in the sky to make it simple he is perfect idol of pure friendship. He somehow arranged for money and at last John redeemed his mobile with the money that Garry gave. It was April 14th afternoon; John was rushing towards canteen to have a quick meal and to get ready for the next exam that afternoon. For Johns surprise Ellen had bought a lunch for John also. From John’s perspective things was quite different form Ellen. Whatever the Scenario be John needed Food and he got it. He Finished eating and soon realized that Garry was waiting outside for him to have lunch together. with a innocent face John approached Garry and said sorry I forgot that you were waiting and I finished my lunch, Me and Ellen shared her Lunch. Garry felt very tempestuous but never let it out. Since the time was limited he skipped his lunch and proceeded forth to the exam hall for the afternoon Innings :P.
