Feeling ashamed and embarrassed about the entire stealing incident that happened during his adolescent years , the young man has had difficulty developing a close personal relationship with anyone , except his grandma , in his youth and later years of his life . He feels he can trust no one . Partly for the same reason , he works on his own and never consults other people .
At the age of eighteen , the young man is admitted to a college diploma programme , on the recommendation of his uncle , who has also studied there .
To pay his way through college , he obtains some form of assistance such as allowances and lower school fees during his period of study by doing servant work. He works as a tutor for younger kids , and sometimes , as a waiter in a licensed pub for tips .
