CHAPTER 1 : INTRODUCTION
As for me, there is nothing interesting to say about. My name is Alex and I just turned 17. I'm a dark-haired, tall boy. I'm interested in video games particularly and reading. I never was a social person. I preferred to spend some time alone, rather than with my friends. Well, since I don't have many friends, I got used to loneliness. Even though I'm a good looking person, I don't see myself being all romantic and impressing other girls. I simply don't think I will be able to, since I am too shy and the only woman to whom I've talked for more than few minutes was my mother, which is kind of embarrassing.
'Alex! Dinner is ready!' a voice called from downstairs. It was my mother's voice. When she called me, I realized that I haven't eaten whole day, which makes me even more hungry. I rushed downstairs to the kitchen and sat on one of the chairs close to kitchen table.
In a moment I saw a familiar face, coming with a full plate of food. Noodles weren't my favourite ,although I wasn't complaining. When it comes to making dishes, my mother is the most passionate and talented. I can also cook, but I probably didn't inherit that creative mind of my mom's.
Mother: 'So.. How was your school Alex?' My mother asked.
Alex: 'School? I…Uhh… I mean It's.. okay I guess..'
Mother:'Oh come on! I can see that something is bothering you. What's wrong?
That sudden reaction surprised me and I tried to answer her question with a even more broken voice.
Alex: 'It's… really nothing mom…. I just spaced out and was lost in my thoughts.. Sorry.'
Mother: 'You don't have to be sorry, you know?' She said with a concerned voice and after a pause added 'It's that boy again isn't it?'.
I sat there in silence. I didn't know what to say nor what to do. I felt sweat all over my face.
The boy mentioned in our conversation is kind of my oppressor and a bully. He finds his prey, then attacks it from every side. Sometimes through psychological ways, sometimes physically. I guess that it was my turn again and I had to survive it.
Mother: 'You can't just let him do that!'
Alex: 'Can we please stop talking about this? I pleaded to her with a sad voice.
It looked like she wanted to continue, but then she looked on my tired and sad face and just simply nodded. We ate our food in silence and after that I went to my room. There was really nothing to do, so I just turned on my computer. I was about to start browsing the internet, when a sudden message popped out. It was a message from one of my internet friends. His name was Markus. We usually spend time playing video games together. I've expected him to write something to encourage me to play with him, but this time conversation ended up going in other way.
Markus: Sup. Are you free now?
Alex: Yup, I am, what's poppin?
Markus: Nothing much, just finished playing this new game called Doki Doki Literature Club
Alex: Name sounds interesting. What is it about?
Markus: Well… I can only tell you that it's a visual novel, but you will have to find the rest for yourself.
Alex: I'm… not that interested in visual novels I'm afraid. I'm also tired so I'm probably gonna just go to sleep now.
Markus: What a shame…. Okay then, see you later!
Alex: Yea.. See you!
I really was tired, I wasn't lying. But the fact that he recommended me a game interested me. Although I didn't have much time for thoughts because my eyes were already closing. Instead I just gave up and embraced my comfortable bed, feeling all warm and cosy.
My sleep didn't last long, because I woke up after two hours. I really had nothing to do, so I went to my computer and on Steam. I wanted to find "Doki Doki Literature Club" Game, that Markus was talking about. At first, from the description and gallery, I saw that it looked just like a normal visual novel, although Markus's words ("It's a visual novel, but you will have to find the rest for yourself.") were in my head. What's so interesting about it, that even Markus wanted to play it? I finally decided that I will download the game. When it was done, I clicked play and a menu with four cute girls appeared on my screen.
