relief. They had watched the whole live stream and found out the truth. Sarah and Darius were actually in a relationship before. They had prepared to bring Darius back to the dorm when they found out the truth but the stream went off when the security staff pulled Darius off David. After that they had no idea where Darius went, which put them at a loss. They were very glad to hear from Darius, until they heard that he was actually in the police station and would not be released without paying a sum of five thousand dollars. They all knew that there was no was way Darius would be able to

all through. His mind was still occupied with thoughts of the break up he just went through. There was no longer any doubt in him. Sarah had ended their relationship. It was all over now. When they got to the police station, Darius alighted from the vehicle with a blank stare on his face. They guided him to a room in the police station and told him to seat down. After five minutes, a policeman came into the room. “Darius Reid. Am I correct?” Darius nodded his head. He didn’t feel like speaking.  “You are charged with three offenses for your behavior this night. You are charged for assault and battery, disruption of business, and violence.” Darius eyes widened. He didn’t know that he was charged with so many offenses! “To pay for your crimes, you have to pay a sum of $5,000 or you’d spend the next three days in jail. That will be very bad for you isn’t it? You’re a student at Kingston University. They don’t accept students with criminal records. Such records on your files will surely get you expelled.” Darius felt his head spinning wildly. Five thousand dollars? Where on earth was he going to get such a huge sum of money? As if the policeman saw through his worries, he spoke again. “If you don’t have such amount of money on you now, I’ll give you your phone to make some calls now. However, you have only an hour to pay up. Otherwise I won’t be able to help you.” “Thank you very much!” Darius said as he stretched his hands, collecting his old phone from the police man outstretched hands. The policeman sighed. At a single glance he could tell that the offender was very poor and that there was no way he would be able to come up with such a huge amount of money on his own accord. He really hoped that he had people that would be able to pay the fine; otherwise he would have to spend 3 days behind bars. Darius felt his heart beating fast as he went through his contact list on his phone. The phone had suffered terribly from his fight with David. The screen had cracked in numerous places, and the visibility of the screen of the phone had reduced greatly. As Darius scrolled through the list on his phone, he let out a bitter laugh. He didn’t even have up to 30 contacts listed on his phone. It was expected though, as Darius always worked part time. Therefore he didn’t have time for school meet ups, occasions, fundraisers and the likes. Finally he decided to call his dorm mates. Although they were not as wealthy as David, Darius was sure that they would be able to pay the sum. He dialed the number and placed the phone on his ears. On the third ring, the person picked up the call. “Hello Darius! Darius is that you?!” “Yes Rudd. It’s me.” Darius replied. Rudd let out an audible sigh of relief. They had watched the whole live stream and found out the truth. Sarah and Darius were actually in a relationship before. They had prepared to bring Darius back to the dorm when they found out the truth but the stream went off when the security staff pulled Darius off David. After that they had no idea where Darius went, which put them at a loss. They were very glad to hear from Darius, until they heard that
