123 - one for the weekend

Inspiration for this piece: Frankenstein's monster was actually a very intelligent creation. Excelling in all his classes he set off to university with the ambition of paying his own way. Unfortunately times got tough and he had to make some sacrifices for the sake of his pride. He flunked that following year and had to return to his creator. The good doctor took him back but the boy remained an underachiever for the rest of his life, put on weight and never fell in love.
