Chapter 123: I Used a Coin to Screw a Wall and Accidentally Turned It On
I brought out a coin from my pocket.
Jack also saw it and his thoughts were:
"Why did you bring out a coin, pal? If you want me, I can do it for free. I will never charge money from you."
"... Take out your mind from the gutter. I didn't bring it out for you. And if I wanted to do it, I wouldn't pay you as well."
"Yes. Your gratitude would suffice. I have no need for money anyway."
"Shut up now. Let me focus."
"Wait… if not for me, then why did you bring out a coin? Oh. I see. I get it."
"You questioned and answered yourself."
"Yes. I can run my mind like that. I once solved a fight in a road between two men by saying if they are into being cucked by a poor man, they forgot their fight and joined to beat me. Anyway, I think your plan is great, pal. They would surely agree."
"Who's they?"
"The guards of course."
"Why would I give this coin to guards?"
"Because you want to do them. You will pay them and then make them happy and then they will open this cell. That's a master plan."
"What? No! Stop putting yourself in other situations and think of an answer. This coin is for some other purpose and no, it's not related to sex. It is for screwing."
"... So I was right?"
"There are other meanings of screwing too. And shut up for a second."
"Sure."
Jack went silent and I focused on the rectangular lock area again.
I took out a coin to test something.
To test whether the screws that are drilled on the corners of the rectangular metal would rotate by the edge of the coin. I am not that much fan of edging since I can't hold it more than five minutes anyway, but I would like the coin's edge to work as I wanted.
I have seen my grandpa doing this, not in a prison of course, he never did anything worthy of prison. It's just when he used to lock grandma in the store room for days without food, he used to tell her how to open the door by this coin method that I am using right now.
Anyway, I placed the coin at the lining of the small screws and used all my strength to rotate it.
If I can't open the lock, I would open the very thing the lock was hanging on. It's like if I can't get the girl I like, I would take the boy she likes. Chances of threesome would increase like that.
Anyhow, I gathered strength from each corner of my body but nothing happened. However, the coin fitted perfectly on the crevices of the screw. Like a custom made dildo fitting perfectly inside the buyer.
Now, I just have to apply strength, rotate and the screw would come loose.
But over the years, the screws had also become just like an old woman's nipples. Not bulging at all.
Nevertheless, I won't give up. This is the only way. This is my path to freedom. This is the way to save my grandma.
I called for strength from the bottom of my heart, from my toes to my head, from my buttocks and every part of me sent me strength as well and soon, the next second…
PRRTT!
A fart happened.
I went still, stunned.
I looked at Jack.
"It's alright, pal. It's completely natural." He said.
My brows twitched. "That was you!"
"Still natural."
"Natural? You are a ghost. How can you even do that? What do you even eat? And this cell is already smelling as it is, don't put in more effort."
"I will tell you my diet plan later. You focus."
This bitch.
He totally broke my concentration. If there was one more alive person here, they would have clearly thought it was me who made that sound. Because no one expects ghosts to excrete gas like that.
But fcuk it, the screws. I have to undo the screws.
I went back to do the hard work with the coin.
My index finger and thumb hurt like I fingered a rhino but the coin never left my right hand and it also didn't come out of the screw.
My face drenched in sweat as if an horny female cheetah sat on my head, my golden hairs came in front of my eyes like my embarrassments, but I remained focused on that screw. I only saw that rusty black screw in front of me. And I won't stop until it rotates or I die.
Jack also said nothing and whenever I reached the limit of my strength, the ghost made those sounds.
But I ignored all of them and not knowing how much time passed but after a gruesome duration of forced strength…
The coin finally moved.
It rotated.
I beamed.
After that rotation, dopamine hit me like a husband's belt. I believe at least. I mean, I wasn't very good at social studies so I don't know that much about dopamine and shit. But surely, that one rotation gave me new strength and I wasted none of that.
Following that one rotation, I rotated the screw more and more with the coin like it was a steering wheel of a bus filled with children and before I knew it, the screw came off.
It fell down on its own and for the first time, I felt how it feels to win after trying your damn best. For some this would only be an undoing of a screw but for me it was as hard as hanging a bucket on my… hand.
The constant farts of Jack, the short burst of strength and farts, the crying of my finger, thumb and Jack's gastral system, all these things came together to give me a victory, my first victory in Moral.
I think I know where my character arc is going. Earn the strength first so that I became capable enough of handling it. Fast success builds Ego and slow success builds character and sexual tendencies. I have seen fast success and it has destroyed my Ego but this slow success phase would definitely turn me into something else… probably.
But alas, no time to celebrate. Three more screws are yet to come off and I didn't have that much time as well.
I can't rest. Two days would pass before I knew it.
I jerked my hand, made them ready to go for another round and by muscle memory, my hand went towards my pants.
'Not that another round, hand. Focus.'
I held the coin again and placed it on the top right screw.
I began doing the same thing I did with the first screw.
I used all my strength again and it took the same time as the first one.
But I didn't give up and carried on.
Like that, the second screw also came off.
Then the third screw and lastly, finally, hastily, grizzly, sexually, in the end…
The fourth and last screw came off as well.
And with that, I came off too.
