“Phew!”

George wiped off his sweat, feeling immense relief as soon as he saw this notification in the interface of the visaphone.

‘F*cking finally!’ He roared in his mind.

Growl!

The hunger came back though but this time he didn’t react pitifully, his face contorted in anger. He was now equipped to show his stomach who was boss.

He was now ready to climb down from the tree, but just as he moved…

Click!

The door to the first floor of the 3-storied building opened the next moment, and from it came out a beautiful blonde-haired young lady with thick curves.

On top the tree, George froze even as he gulped.

‘F*cking Count Luke!’

‘So, this is what you do when your wife is not around huh?’

‘F*cking cheater!’

‘And not with some random girl either, a girl this hot? F*ck!’

Perhaps, it was due to his agitated reaction but a tree branch broke.

Snap!

Silence.

If there was a way for him to just disappear out of existence, George would do anything to get that power at this moment because the blonde-haired girl looked in his direction before narrowing her eyes in confusion.

“Babe, do you have another pet apart from Funky?”

“I think I’m seeing a yellow monkey”.

George was as silent as a mouse but in his mind, he was roaring. ‘Monkey my foot! You overpampered spoilt child!’

George heard footsteps from inside the mansion the next moment as his heart beat rapidly. ‘He can’t see me!’ He thought.

As soon as the Count came close, the girl turned to face him and that was the window of opportunity that George needed.

“Babe,” The Count grabbed her huge ass. “Where is the monkey you saw?”

“There,” She pointed but paused, stunned.

“What, babe?” The count asked in a concerned tone.

She remained stunned. “H-he’s gone, I can swear I saw something there just a second ago”.

“I think you’re stressed babe, let’s go inside”. Kissing her on the lips, the Count dragged his mistress inside the mansion just as George landed on the ground outside the fence.

“Hehe, I survived”. George laughed.

“I escaped!”

Ecstatic, without hesitation, George ran away.

About 2 minutes later, turning round an alley, he finally settled down, catching his breath even as he kept on praying against a scam.

After wasting so much energy on it, if he was not paid, he was not sure if his remaining calories would be enough for him to beg for food.

And worst still, his ego won’t allow him beg for food.

George gulped again and prayed, then he accessed the visaphone.

***

Seeing the last part of the so-called system notifications, George felt a great burden lifted off his shoulders. His hunger also seemed to cower in fear at the sight.

Rubbing his hands together in anticipation, George inputted the right details.

[Bank Name: Crack Microfinance Bank]

[Bank Account Name: George Churchill]

[Bank Account Number: 002345672]

…

[Please confirm local bank details!]

George rapidly confirmed them and clicked on ok, then the interface of the visaphone changed again.

[Payment successful!]

[Please visit your local bank to withdraw your money!]

Beep!

Feeling his android phone ring, George was jolted awake as his eyes opened wide. Then with trepidation, he fished his phone out and peeked.

{Crack Microfinance Bank electronic notification service- CeNS!}

{Transaction Alert: Credit- 5,000 NUS Credits!}

{Dear George Churchill, we wish to inform you that a Credit transaction occurred on your account with us.}

Beep!

George’s eyes widened. ‘Another notification? Perhaps, another 5,000?’

{Crack Microfinance Bank electronic notification service- CeNS!}

{Transaction Alert: Debit- 1,500 NUS Credits!}

{Dear George Churchill, we wish to inform you that a Debit transaction occurred on your account with us as payment for the online money that you borrowed and interest.}

{Click to expand!}

George’s eyes widened, spoiled by a frown this time but he didn’t have the time to pay attention to his little debt that was just paid though.

What occupied his mind was that it was real.

“F*ck!” He screamed aloud.

“It’s not a scam!”

“Hahahaha!” He laughed.

“It’s not a scam!”

The attention of a few people walking through the street was attracted as they looked at him with a weird gaze like he was mad.

George didn’t care though, he was ecstatic. “Finally, I can eat!”

At this moment, George wanted nothing more than to visit the nearest restaurant but he paused. First, he needed to save money, he didn’t know if this visaphone thing was a one-off thing.

And secondly, he didn’t forget.

That little brat lip-syncing and humiliating him, he remembered.

He grinned. ‘Let’s go show that brat that my fate has changed!’

He left.

…

>Crack Microfinance Bank<

There was a signboard at the gate saying this.

Entering inside the bank building, George joined the small cue waiting to withdraw some cash using the ATM (automatic teller machine).

Holding his bank card, his hand sweat as a lot of things went through his mind. ‘What if everything was not real?’

‘What if its fake?’

‘What if I’m humiliated again?’

“Sir, it’s your turn”. The man behind him nudged at him.

“Ah!” Jolting back to his senses, George took a step closer and pushed his bank card into the machine. He didn’t want to look at his balance due to fear.

With faith, he simply inputted the amount that he wanted to withdraw.

>3,000 NUS Credits withdrawal confirmed<

>Please wait…<

The machine made a humming sound, and a few seconds later, cash came out.

For a few seconds after, George just stood looking, dumbfounded.

“Sir?”

“Ah, sorry”. He took his money and wiped off his tears, trying to hide it to avoid the others seeing it.

As he left the bank, George held the money tight.

‘Money!’ He screamed in his mind.

‘Thank you, grandpa, for this gift’. Remembering the face that appeared in his dream, he offered his gratitude before leaving the bank.

Today was the happiest day of George’s life in over a month.
