243 The childhood conflict (2)

“Really? Do you have to do what Grandpa said to you? You are still very young and naive. Do you think no one would know what you are trying to achieve by being friends with the enemies? It’s obvious as day, Damien and that’s Why Maverick doesn’t like you. Not only are you following Grandpa’s plans, but you are also becoming a nuisance. You are not even as intelligent as his friends, you are the dumbest person in the class! Maverick only sees you as a stupid person and that’s why he’ll never like you!” 1

Those words broke Damien’s heart. His Grandfather didn’t tell him anything and he’s not trying to befriend Maverick for any malicious reason. He genuinely likes Maverick.

He looked at Maverick, waiting for him to deny the allegations the he saw him as a nuisance. He was waiting earnestly for Maverick to push Ruben and call him a liar, but Maverick didn’t. He only sneered and walked out.

Damien wanted to run after him to explain his own part but Ruben held him, preventing him from leaving. However, Damien refused to be stopped and forcefully pushed Ruben away, causing him to hit his head on the edge of the table.

Because Damien was in haste to leave, he didn’t see the blood coming out of his brother’s head, nor did he notice that his brother had fainted.

Outside the cafeteria, he finally stopped Maverick and explained that Ruben was lying, then he asked. Maverick what he thought about him.

“Just like your brother said, you are a nuisance, Get a life, you aren’t fit to be close to me. I despise you!”
