Chapter 21: Chapter 21 Faces are slapped
=======================
Jack felt as if a giant lump was stuck in his throat, He honestly had some reservations about what Jonah said, but it wouldn't matter once the people started hating him.
Jack thought about how it would feel if the very people that he saved were to hate on him.
*Ring*Ring*Ring*
Suddenly the silence was broken by a caller in the live TV show, Jonah pressed a button and the caller spoke
"Hello.."
"Hello, my name is J.Jonah Jameson and you are live on XXX."
"Umm, I have something to say about Mr. Magic."
"Yes Mam! you can tell the people how horrified you have become with the fact that someone thinks it's alright to act like a hero and meddle in the work of heroes."
Jack was becoming more and more worried about what he was gonna hear, although he knew it in his heart that ever since he became a hero, the people of New York as a whole, have lived a better life.
"Umm, This one time I was out for work, I am a hotdog seller....."
"Ah! The voice of the people who are down to Earth, rest assured that millions of people will come to know of the truth today"
"..as I was saying it was just another day for me, making hot dogs for my regular customers, when this Truck being chased Mr. Magic swerved towards us and lost its balance!"
The man was about to continue when Jonah again intervened, "Oh my God! I am truly sorry about what happened with you, and let me guess.. your business was destroyed and you suffered a bad injury due to the accident, You see folks!, that's what happens when people like Mr. Magic my ass are left to their own devices."
"That's not what happened!, I was saved by Mr. Magic, if it weren't for him, I would have lost my life when the truck would have hit me!, the reason the truck lost its balance was that the police had banged into the Truck, Mr. Magic was able to use his magic and made the truck float in the air, just inches away from my face!"
J.Jonah was completely silent as he stared into the camera, His face was red as if he was facing an extreme case of Diarrhea.
"And I guess that must have traumatised you, feeling like people like these are in control of your life."
Jameson said as he tried to prove some point stubbornly, Fortunately, the caller had grown somewhat accustomed to the unfamiliar feeling of being listened to on the live television and quickly rebuked J.Jonah Jameson
"Are you out of your mind!, I am trying to tell you that the guy saved me, He saved me, He saved a father of two children, He saved a husband, He saved a citizen of New York who pays The government for his safety!" It seemed as if the Caller was angry at Jonah for twisting his words, Jonah was similarly shocked by the outrage of the caller.
"Mr. Magic, If you are listening to this live television, please don't pay mind to people like Mr. Jameson who only know how to enjoy luxury and how to twist words and play with innocent peoples' hearts, I want you to know that there are a lot of people out here who think highly of what you do, This place needs more people like you!" with that The Caller ended the call.
After a bit of pause, J.Jonah Jameson came out of his stupor and called for a break.
" Hahahahahaa...."
Jack couldn't help but laugh at the red faced Jonah, it's been a while since Jonah has been harassing him, looks like people weren't as stupid as he believed them to be, They knew when to praise and when to berate someone, at least Jack was doing something about the place.
He wasn't just sitting on some high seat with pyjamas and a coat on, Looking at a camera as he constantly berated everyone for being a better person.
*Ring*Ring*Ring*
The bell rang, Jack stood up and opened the door, It was his pizza guy, He took the pizza boxes and gave an extra-large tip.
The delivery guy left with a huge smile on his face. After sitting down on the couch, Jack changed the TV channel and opened one of the many boxes of pizza.
His worries for the day were over and he simply enjoyed a good pizza.======
