[ CW ] Write yourself into a corner .

This is slightly inspired from a recent story I saw on the news, if you notice the similarities kudos. 
 
 I had been young, interested in everything and nothing, like any young man of 17 was at the time. I went to university on a whim, there had n't been much thought in the process, I had picked to study economics, I did two long hard years of economics before I called it quits. Fuck it, that was n't what I wanted, simple as that. 
 
 The debt was not what I wanted, I was poor, it was the only way I could go to university. But part of me never felt concerned by the copious amounts of money I owed, I was young, what is 40,000 $ to a man who came from nothing? A significant amount of money, yet it was a number on the screen, a concept I was familiar with having done economics for a large portion of my late teen years. 
 
 I moved country, I fell in love, I started a family, I forgot my immediate family, I made a living, I found happiness. 
 
 I ignored debt, I ignored what I owed. 
 
 I went back to my country to show my family my upbringing and to try and give some perspective to my children that where I came from had many issues that they will hopefully never have to deal with. 
 
 I showed them everything, I had a good experience. 
 
 Switch to the present. My 40,000 $ loan has gathered significant interest, enough that I have been detained at the airport for not paying back what was required of me. My family have been forced to fly home, I make the living for them. What am I to do?
