Rejected and Insecure

Grandfather's punishment

ZACK

Three days without my phone is the worst punishment ever! Like it was not enough, grandfather hired a tutor! Dude! Who study in break? No one! We have fun! Not like I was prince Williams or something, I,m a normal teenager I need to have fun! Not studying my a*s off and cracking my brain to solve a stupid geometrical mathematic! 

"Ugh!" I screamed breaking the eternal silence. 

"What again Zack?" Nathaniel sigh.

"I can't continue like this! This question is killing me! I don't know how to calculate the angles!" I yelled shoving the books. 

"Like dude! Who can solve this?" Jack threw his hands in exasperation. 

"You guys are lazy, see I'm done with mine." Nathan said showing us his complete work. 

"I never knew you were a nerdy bastard." I said.

"I'm not, I just happen to study S-T-U-D-Y." He spelt.

"We're not dumb okay? No need to spell it idiot." Jack rolled his eyes.

"Then solve it Mr we're not dumb." Nathan chuckled.

"Whatever you'll just do it for us." I said 

"No way," he huff, "if I solve anymore figures my brain will explode." 

"Yeah I guess, he should have given us the same questions, at least we could copy." I said. 

"Yeah, I hate that guy, tutor my ass." Jack huffed."Where is that little s**t?"

"Christopher? Haven't spoken to him since the last time he punched me," I said.

"You guys fought again?" Nathan sat up to hear my story.

"Yeah, at times I think he is crazy, this minute he is calm, next minute he is mad, I don't understand." 

"Yeah, so tell." Jack said.

"Well he poured water on my beautiful s**t, I yelled at him, he yelled back I punched him, he attack me like some beast, I was off guard, I swear!" 

"Yeah, yeah, so?" Nathan rolled his eyes. 

"Grandfather came, slapped him like really hard, took him away. Since then he is deadly silent, I don't see him much." I shrugged. 

"What did grandfather do?" Jack asked, we both shrugged. 

"Let's get him, he is the nerd here, and the tutor don't seem to have any problems with him." I said. 

"Yeah but where is he?" Jack asked. 

"Where are nerds suppose to be? In the library idiot." I rolled my eyes.

Soon enough we were in the huge Library, this place makes me sick piles of books and many shelves, who wants to read books while phones and games are in existence? 

He was seating on a chair with piles of books on his table, that boy is bizarre. 

"Hey wimp do this," I threw the papers on his face, pretty provocative huh? Yeah, jack is here we're two against one. 

He stare at the paper for like one second before sighing and shaking his head. He started solving without saying a word, I can't believe, usually he'll put up a huge fight first, but right now? I don't understand he is definitely a weirdo! 

In less than five minutes he was done. He pack his books and was heading out. 

"Hey! You can't just leave." Jack said. 

"Did you give your tongue to the cat?" I mocked, he just shrugged in response before walking out. 

"Our problem is solved," jack smiled.

"No, I'm bored as f**k! I need my phone, I,m sure those pretty girls I met in the ball sent me messages I wanna reply right now!" 

"Zacky wakey!" Jack snapped his fingers on my face, "we're in grandfather's house." 

"I know duh! is obvious dummy! I just want my freaking phone back!" I yelled. 

"If you get an a*s whooping my shoulders are available for you to cry on." 

"No! I'll just...em.. Take a glance and drop it back." 

"Bad bad bad idea,"

"Is not a bad idea." I rolled my eyes.

"Grandfather will discipline you, stealing is wrong."

"I'm not stealing is mine for f**k sake! I can take it whenever I want!"

"Oh no this won't end well." He muttered, "precaution is better than cure, please don't do this, I don't wanna see you hurt okay?" He sounds really serious. 

"Fine," I rolled my eyes, "I won't but I'm still bored." 

"Maybe we could watch some movie later today, okay?"

"Kay..." 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Two hours! Two f*****g hours just staring at the wall in my room dying of boredom! 

"I can't take this anymore!" I stood up and match out of my room, I barge into Christopher's just to annoy him but it was empty! 

"Where the hell did he go?" I turn around, search everywhere but he was not in here, I stomped out of the room huffing and kicking my foot. 

I stop dead in track when I saw grandfather's office door c***k open, I'm sure as hell that he is not in there, I could just maybe grab my cell. I know grandfather always leave our stuffs in his private drawer. 

"No, that's a bad idea." I said to myself, "maybe not, after all no one will even notice." 

Skip!

I shouldn't have spoken too fast.

"Zack grandfather wants you in his office." Nathan said.

"Why?" Jack asked. 

My palms were already getting sweaty. 

"I dunno know but he looked really pissed." 

Jack turn to face me, "is it what I'm thinking?" 

I deep my phone in my back pocket, "of cause no, maybe he just want us to discuss." I shrugged innocently. 

"Well good luck with your discussion." He return back to drawing. 

"Come back whole please," Nathan plop by his side. 

"Y-yeah," I said nervously, I walk with wobbling feet to grandfather's office, I nervously twisted the handle after knocking of cause. 

I stood in awkward silence trying to avoid all eye contact with grandfather. 

"Your phone." He simply said. 

"Huh? I don't know." 

"Give me your cell Oliver." He said firmly making me gulped. 

"I swear is not with me, the Butler took it right?" What the hell am I doing? Lying will only make it worse dammit! Stupid me! 

He rotated his laptop, I almost pass out. This is the greatest shock of my life. I should've knew it! Cameras! Every business man has one is his damn office. 

I was left speechless, as I watch the video, me taking my cell and running out, hey I didn't know I was so hot. 

He cleared his throat. 

"I'm sorry, I was really bored! And... I'm not suppose to be here is Christopher's fault!" 

He pointed to his desk, I dropped my phone without a word I'm doom yeah I know. 

"Bend over the little desk," he instructed as he pulled a drawer, I know what's in there, the cane, it hurts more than the belt is just inhuman! 

I did as told the earlier I get over with the longer I can be left alone. 

"Stealing and lying are two of the actions I don't tolerate in my house, you broke not one but two great laws Oliver." He said, I embrace myself getting ready for the strike it eventually came but not as I expected, it is like ten times painful. 

"Ow!" I yelp, the first strike is always a surprise. It went on stroke after strokes, I can't take anymore, I loose control and started bawling like a child, it hurt so b****y much! Tears stream down my face non stop. The only thing I felt was a hell lot of pain! I totally loose count at fifteen, I want him to stop! I've learnt my lesson I'm never stealing my properties again!

"Sit" I heard him say I turn around, he held a paper out. 

My butt had gone numb from the pain, I don't think I want to seat, I stood there crying, it really hurts, I wanna go home! 

"Oliver" he said firm making me flinch. I slowly reach for the paper with shaky hand. 

He walk back to his desk scrolling through his computer. 

I gathered myself together, sat on on the hard wood even though I kinda sob, wrote bullshit and gave it to him, I practically ran out of his office, when I was far enough, I relented staring at the floor with tears dripping down my face. 

I hugged myself as I walk through the hall sobbing quietly. I bump into someone, oh help me if is that little bastard, I swear I'll kill him! I don't care if I'll have to go back to that hell but I'll be satisfied just with his death. 

I felt warm hands wrap around me, "is okay zacky I gotcha." I heard Nathan say. 

"It hurts so bad Nat, I wanna go home," I sobbed in his chest soaking his gray shirt.

"Yeah you gotta wait, seven more days and we're free." He whispered. 

I nodded. He walk me back to my room where Jack was already waiting.

"Hey c'mere." He opened his arms wide I ran straight in them. "See that's why you should always listen to your elder brothers, we know better." He said. 

"Yeah, sorry." I buried my face in his chest in shame.

"How about we watch that movie? Hmm?" 

"Yeah." I smiled.

"I prefer you like this you're really cute." Nathan grinned.

"Shut up." I rolled my eyes throwing a pillow on his face. 

"Oh you really wanna see the other side of me huh?" He stomp toward me. 

"No, no, thank you." I cling onto Jack. 

He stood up I thought he was gonna take Nathan down but I was wrong, "let's do this." he said and they both started tinkling me, I laughed out.

"Stop! Traitor!" 

When the finally stopped I was out of breath, jack ruffled my hair. 

"You know we both love you and will be here for you no matter what." Nathan said.

"Yeah you guys are so awesome!" I don't know what I'll do without my two bro, their words their actions, I can't be any happier, mother is gone but they're here for me. What will I become if they were taken? I don't know and I don't wanna think about it.
