The Consortium’s Heir by Benjamin_Jnr

Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Darius walked out of the store happily. He felt very much fulfilled after the small episode in the store. He walked for a few minutes with the shopping bags in his hand before stopping. 

Darius‘ stomach growled, reminding him that he hadn‘t eaten anything yet. He wanted to eat at the Sky Golden Hotel, but he had a lot of shopping bags on him. Taking the shopping bags to the hotel would be quite inconvenient for him. Besides, he really needed to change his outfit, or he might not even be granted entry this time. Darius hailed a taxi and got in. He decided to drop his newly purchased outfits at the dorm before going to the hotel to dine. 

The ride back to his dorm was uneventful, and so was his walk. Apart from the occasional stares and gossips from the students, there was nothing out of the ordinary. He entered his dorm room and saw that it was still empty. Even though two hours had passed since he left for the mall, his dorm mates were not yet back from school. Darius kept the shopping bags neatly and out of sights from his dorm mates. He didn‘t want to answer any unnecessary question that would stem from them seeing the shopping bags on his bed. 

When he was done, he changed into one of the new outfits he had bought. The outfit fitted him perfectly, which made Darius smile. His self esteem was boosted when he wore the outfit. It seemed that dressing well really had its own perks. Darius suddenly groaned. After his brief episode with Sarah, he had completely overlooked the fact that he needed to buy new shoes too. His whole outfit was ruined by the fact the shoes he wore were worn out. 

Darius sighed. There was nothing he could do now. He was far too hungry to go back to the store and get some new shoes. It didn‘t matter much anyway. He would go and get some new shoes after eating. Right now, eating was his priority. The hunger pangs were no longer ignorable.
