To be brutally honest ... I met this guy when I started college. I owned a motorbike and he was too scared to travel alone!

He offered to pay for the fuel if I gave him a ride ... he would escape the bus and "The" bullies and I could extract some money from him ( I was poor as fu*k so please judge me! )

I carried him for 4 years .. the piggyback ride and he paid in full for the service ... including the fuel and the spares during that duration ...

But F*ck ... I am human too ... and I bonded with him.

He was my best man at my wedding, I was at his!

Once he married a scheming *****, things changed. He Changed.

2 decades down the line ...

I was passing by and I knocked on his door!

His son opened and I greeted him with expensive presents!

and left some expensive presents for the couple ...

While I was leaving ... I asked his 10-year-old son (I hosted his b'day for a decade) .. who was I?

He said ... I don't know you!


I cold-blooded ended the relationship ...



I wish I had done it sooner with the freeloaders!










But I want to send an expensive "thanking you" gift for the son because he was the one to reset "ME" to what I was!



On second thoughts ... I don't want another freeloader!

Huh? I don't get it lol
If the kid doesn’t remember an uncle who held the birthday party for him for ten years, there must be something wrong really going on with how they educate the child.

I don’t blame the ten years old I blame their parents.

If you don’t remember people who are good to you, this means that any ROI on you will be essentially zero.

If Nerve of Steel’s child continue to hang out with this child, it will be a drag rather than a value buddy.
