It was a hot night in the capital city, Athria. A tall and athletic young man was walking down the street with a face full of worry since he did not have money to pay the last university fee. The semester had ended two days ago, and if he didn't pay within the next three days, the professors wouldn't upload his grades into the system.
Jedrek Zeth was a student at the most prestigious University in his country. The only drawback is that he was poor.
His mother worked as an employee in a rich's house, and he never met his father.
The young man was intelligent, so he got a scholarship to study at Berklat University.
At first, he was reluctant to apply to this University because of the high costs. But his mother insisted. She wanted her son to have the best education.
Ultimately, the young man gave in to his mother's wishes.
So as not to make his mother's burden heavier. He lied to her about the cost of his career.
Each semester at the University cost 50,000 orions. Still, thanks to the scholarship, he had to pay 30,000 orions, a fairly high sum for someone of limited means.
Jedrek lied to his mother and told her the cost was 20,000 orions. So he had 5 months to gather 10,000 orions. This implies he had to earn at least 2,000 orions monthly to cover the missing money.
The first and second semesters had no problems. Jedrek started working as a waiter in a bar for ladies and was able to earn enough money. Problems arose in the third semester when the young man got a girlfriend.
Why does a poor guy get a girlfriend? At the age of 20, young people feel that need to be around the opposite sex and enjoy life. And it's not like he's useless with no future. Also, Jedrek was known in his college as an intelligent and good-tempered guy, so many girls were willing to be his girlfriend. Oh, I forgot to mention that he was handsome and athletic.
Sophia, Jedrek's girlfriend, was a girl who belonged to a lower-middle-class family. Still, her expenses were not concerning her economic position. She was vain and proud, but she appeared humble.
This young couple got together because of Jedrek's insistence and because she thought Jedrek could be a successful man in the future.
After 5 months, the relationship was not going well. Sophia was very demanding and always put the young man in trouble.
Suddenly, Jedrek's phone rang.
"Hey, buddy, where are you?" a male voice sounded on the other side.
"I'm on my way to work," Jedrek said in a dull voice.
"Something happens? You sound like someone has died," the man asked.
"Don't joke about that, Patrik," Jedrek responded with a serious tone.
"Tell me if you have any problem, and I will help you. Don't you consider me your friend?" Patrick said.
Patrik Bollys was Jedrek's only true friend.
Although Jedrek got along well with his classmates, their relationship was superficial.
90% of the students at Berklat University were rich young people, so his classmates usually secretly despised Jedrek.
"I'm short 1,500 Orions to pay the university fee," Jedrek said embarrassedly.
"That's not a problem. "I'll lend you money," Patrik said. He knew that Jedrek would not accept alms, so he proposed to lend him the money.
"I don't want to depend on your money…"
"Be quiet. If you don't accept the money, we'll stop being friends. Besides, it's a loan. You have to pay me back every penny," Patrik joked.
The young people talked for a while until Jedrek arrived at his work.
After putting on the waiter's uniform, he started to work; it was Friday, so there was quite a lot of movement in the bar, even though it was 7 o'clock.
Jedrek was assigned to man a private booth on the second floor of the building due to his good looks and height.
That place was reserved for VIP clients, and since the young man was pleasant to look at, he was undoubtedly in demand in that space.
The staff at this bar was divided between waiters and hosts. The waiters carried out a normal job of customer service. At the same time, the hosts accompanied the ladies who felt alone, from dancing and drinking to sweet talk. There were even guys who left with the clients after drinking. The reason? We can all imagine it.
The 'Lady of the Night' bar was an ultra VIP place, where the elite of Athria attended. The hosts were prohibited from engaging in prostitution, and the bar's management did not encourage such practices. So, if something happened between the hosts and the guests, that was up to them. Thanks to that, the bar had a very good reputation.
Many young people dreamed of working there, but not everyone could enter. In fact, Jedrek got the job thanks to the recommendation of his rich friend, Patrik.
When Jedrek entered the private room, he found a beautiful woman sitting on the furniture. Her brown hair fell over her shoulders, and she had beautiful soft white skin. Blue eyes and a small nose.
Leonela was a 40-year-old widow who looked 30 or younger. Her figure was preserved in optimal conditions, not to mention her beautiful face. A year ago, she met Jedrek, and since then, she frequented the bar twice a month just to meet him.
All the times she came, she never asked for the company of a host. She always kept Jedrek by her side by serving her a drink and flirting with him.
The flirting was one-sided; she tried to tease or take advantage of him somehow, but Jedrek avoided the teeth of this 'lioness.'
Tonight, Leonela wore a sexy, low-cut black dress that showed off her delicate back.
Jedrek was no saint, but he now had a girlfriend, and another reason was that he never knew if she was playing with him. However, he was not allowed to play with her since Leonela was one of the most powerful women in the country. Not only was she immensely rich, but she was also an 'awakened,' and her power, telekinesis, made her a fearsome woman.
"Jedrek, today you are as handsome as ever," the woman said with a flirtatious voice.
Jedrek smiled and returned the greeting, "Mrs. Leonela, you are more beautiful than the last time I saw you."
"Liar, I'm older. I can't even win your heart." The woman made a pitiful expression.
"Mrs. Leonela, you conquered me long ago, haha," Jedrek smiled awkwardly.
Leonela was surprised by the young man's response since he always avoided her words. "Oh, you are very participative today. Are you willing to come home with me today?"
"No, it's just that I will travel to my city tomorrow. I am very happy because I will see my mother after 5 months."
The woman brought her hand to her breats and pretended to be hurt.
When the young man fixed his gaze on her breast, he swallowed involuntarily. This woman is too sexy, and her attributes are spectacular. Jedrek had to call on all his willpower to not fall into temptation.
The conversation lasted for hours, until midnight. During this time, Leonela told him everything she had done in the last few weeks, from her diet to meeting important people. Of course, she didn't say anything about the content of these meetings.
Soon, Jedrek walked her to the underground parking lot to say goodbye to her.
After saying goodbye to the beautiful woman, he went up to the top floor of the building to meet his boss.
"Miss Ross, tomorrow I will travel to my city. I'll be back in a week," Jedrek said.
In front of him sat a beautiful woman of about 30 years old with black hair and green eyes. She was wearing a short blue skirt and a white blouse. Some of the buttons on her blouse were loose, enough to give a feeling of seduction since her white breasts were peeking out. Those two snowballs weren't happy about being imprisoned by that tight bra.
"I know. You informed me a week ago." The woman paused. "Jedrek, have you ever thought about what I told you?" Ross asked with a serious tone.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ross. I can't be a host."
"Why? You know our bar has a good reputation. No one will force you to do something you don't want to."
"Miss Ross. Sorry, I'm not interested."
"You never tell me the reason." Ross rolled his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Jedrek hurriedly left the room; he had to immediately flee from this woman, or she would continue to insist ad nauseam.
Many important female clients were interested in Jedrek, so they persistently requested that the young man serve as their host.
Once he left work, it was 1 in the morning. He took out his phone and started checking his messages.
