The day he gave up was when his dream shattered, says the truck driver. This is a story of a coffee attendant who served in a coffee shop for some years and how he gave up on his dream.
Browny served his master for three years with the aim of getting himself to the high school, as well as feed himself and paying his bills. He grew up in an orphanage where at a certain age he decided to gain his freedom and worked to get a living. Day after day he worked hard and harder, until a gang bullied him where he worked and so the dark days showed up.
In his little room he sat and ruminated over what the boys said...." Big boys don't do odd jobs! They use whatever they have to get what they want! Think deeply boy" .Those words kept echoing and then he craved for more freedom.
The gangs visited the coffee shop another day, and Browny saw he would rather join them than beating them. After serving their coffee, he pulled a seat and sat close to them for a brief discussion. He noded his head after all, and pulled the sit aside to resume back to his duty. Later that night, he dressed in a black outfit and took a walk down the street. You know what? The news we got as his neighbours was that Browny was shot while trying to steal some money.
The corps came to the house to check his little room the following morning, so the neighbours sighted a man who claimed to be Browny's boss at work. He came to give him a cheque for the reward of his hard labour, but to his surprise, he couldn't pay his reward. Browny missed it at that point, and his death story was told instead of his success story. The truck driver says; difficult times are only mirage that should be ignored, but the good times are worth waiting for.
