He hated them, he absolutely hated them, the golden boys…
““He hated them, he absolutely hated them, the golden boys. He hated their blondness, their insincere smiles, their designer sunglasses, their designer swimmers and their designer sports gear. They made him feel dark and short and dirty. He detested them and he couldn't wait till he was wearing those sunglasses. till he had those brand names across his sweatshirt, impatient for when those microphones and those cameras were going to be in his face””
