Chapter 1
Yay! It's Valentine's Day
"Pack up, guys. Workday is over. My lady doesn't want me to be late. So hurry up. And happy Valentine's Day. We don't have work for 3 days."
Man, I should be happy we don't have work for three days. But I'm spending all day alone with my cat, watching romantic movies, eating fast food, crying, wondering how things went wrong.
I even tried setting up a Zoom meeting for dinner on Valentine's Day with my friends from Total Drama Island. But it seemed like they had someone special to spend time with.
My job keeps me busy so I haven't been able to get a girlfriend (or boyfriend, are you surprised that I had a boyfriend before?). It looks like I'll be single for another year. Well at least I have my job to keep me company.
Leaving my office building, I sighed with relief, glad to be done with my work for today. I'm sure you've guessed what day it is. It's the season of love. Valentine's day.
If you don't know who I am, let me introduce myself. Greetings! I'm Cody Emmett Jameson Anderson, a 26-year-old heading home to a place I can somewhat afford. I bought it after graduating from university, and I managed to achieve my dream of becoming a computer programmer.
You thought I would say that my dream was to be a singer since I was in a boy band. That's right, you're wrong. I only did that for the ladies and the fame. But, hey, I was a pretty good singer, in my opinion. I mean, I wasn't exactly the next Justin Bieber, but I could carry a tune better than a sack of potatoes.
But at least my job pays pretty well; I earn just enough to survive. So I guess you could say I'm livin' the dream, just not the one I expected.
Oh, right. You guys remember Sierra, right? That crazy ex-fan of mine. That's right, ex-fan. It seems like Sierra has stopped being an obsession stalker toward me. When I found out that she had gotten herself a boyfriend who looked strangely like another version of me. And two years later, they would be married with a baby on the way. Although I was happy for her, I was delighted that I wasn't stalked all the time any more. Man, it was troublesome and scary when she stalked me. But I guess it's true what they say: if you can't find someone like you... just settle for someone who looks like you!
Whatever, I'm just glad I'm not on Total Drama Island anymore. I'm just thankful that I don't have to eat the food and marshmallows on that show! Even though I don't suffer anymore, I still get flashbacks. I think I'm going to have nightmares about marshmallows for the rest of my life! My focus should have been on winning the money instead of focusing on Gwen and other dumb stuff.
"Yeah, I should have spent more time strategizing and less time being a dumb lover boy. I should have gone straight for the million dollar prize - that would have been the real win!"If I ever return. My main focus would be on money, not the creepy pervert behavior. It would be nice if I won that money. And heck, I almost did, but it was impossible since I was facing off against Alejandro. I guess I should have been focusing on the money and not on Alejandro's dreamy eyes!
Anyway, after watching many romance movies and eating fast food with my lovely cat, Candy. I was really tired and needed a good night's sleep. In case I wanna go to the store early to get cheap Valentine's Day candy. Good night, Candy. "I said good night, not good snack!"
