1 g@LLoN of tEaRs - Part 2

The story of Brian and Teresa continues...

Lately, Brian having financial crisis... Although he is working right now, but then he can't cover his expenses. He have ordered a new car recently. All this while, he is using his relative old car. His family member encourage him to get a new car but then then unable to come out the hard cash. Assuming he have the cash since he has work for quite some time, they at last ordered a new car for him. However, he don't dare to tell the truth to his family that he did not manage to save any money during his working period. So now, eh don't have any cash to pay the down payment.

Because of overspending, he did borrowed some cash from Teresa. It's kinda big amount. The cash that she lent it to him is her study loan. He told her that he will be paying back the money soon as he manage his finance. But lately, he still unable to settle his problem. The car is about to come out and he got to get the cash to pay the down payment. At last, he tries to borrow money from those money lender.

One day, he went to meet this money lender. He didn't borrow the money as the man told him that, he must borrow a small amount of money and gotta pay back in 3 months before he can lent out that big sum of money. Well, he thought that he need a few thousands dollar, but then got to borrow a few hundred first. That does not sound very convincing. Worrying that the man is a con man, he didn't go for him.

However, the next day, there is another man called him up. That man is a money lender too. He offered him a better loan requirement than the previous man. What he needed to do is just to pay them a few hundred dollar for processing fee and then the loan will be out in no time. Might be in a day or two. He accepted the offer. Only knowing that he will be borrowing money from those money lender, Teresa knows nothing much. She did reminded him to be careful of those man as they can be a con man when she lent a few hundred to Brian as the processing fees needed.

That day, he went to meet up that man and that man told him in order to get the loan, he need to mortgage his belonging. At first, that man took his handset and a gold ring of his and promised that the loan should be alright and will be out by evening that day is the loan is approved. However, later in the noon, that man said that you have to get some thing more valuable to mortgage to them before getting the loan. So feeling like been con, he didn't want to borrow from them. He asked back the items and the money back. But that man refused.

This causes some argument between Brian and Teresa. She is sad that he don't listen to her at first and now, he even loses the money that he borrowed from her. Worrying that she might fall into another financial crisis, she becomes very moody and hot tempered. There were a few times that they argue over the issue.

To be Continues...
