After dinner, I log in again. Tomorrow's Sunday, so that means tomorrow's the last day I could play a lot. That sucks. On Monday, I have to go to work. No The World for me until I get back in the afternoon. Oh well, at least I have work; Mathew and Bobby are busting their asses with homework and shit.
This time I check the BBS. Most of the messages are nothing, but the last one caught my eye. It's by Atoshi.
Anyone know where to find a secret item? I heard rumors about a super strong weapon for a Long Arm. Thanks.
I see. So that's what he's after.
I warp in to Mac Anu again, wondering where I should level up. I decided to take a stroll near the river to think about it. Then I saw that blue-eyed girl again, sitting on the edge, sandals nearly touching the soft-flowing river.
I sit down beside her. "Yo, what's up?"
She looked at me then asked, "What do you want?"
I put my hands up, palms facing her. "N-nothing. I just wanted to talk to you, that's all."
"Why?"
"Why? Because you seem interesting." I gazed at her, and now that I examined her clothes, she looks like a Wavemaster.
"Interesting, huh? Thanks, I guess." She said then added, "Sorry for snapping at you yesterday. I was just in a foul mood."
"No problem. By the way, I'm Jenocide," I introduced myself.
"My name's Charm. Pleased to meet you."
"Likewise."
We chatted for a while about how we got introduced to the world. I found out that we both got into it through friends. She's been playing this just a week before me.
"Oh! My parents are home. I got to prepare their dinner," she exclaimed. "Call me any time."
We exchanged member addresses, and she logged out. Wow...funny how I could do here in The World what I can't do in reality.
I'm alone again. I might as well train secretly, and show Mathew and Bobby up. I stocked up on healing drinks, and headed out.
