Sunday

I went back to my room. That kiss...Lier kissed me. I can't believe it. That Lier, who was always a shy girl, did something like that.

"I am at fault here."

Elena is someone irreplaceable to me, if something happened to her, I would die. As for Lier, I have known her since I was a kid. I don't remember how we met, I think no one remembers how they met their cousins for the first time.

Lier was always with me. Whenever I go to grandpa's place she comes there too. We were inseparable. She is younger than me, 3...1 year younger than me, but she is more mature than me.

When I was being bullied, I stopped going to school. Lier was with me, she stayed with me for 6 months, she supported me. I was a weird kid from the start, only interested in books, so she also imitated me. Whenever I read any books, she also did the same. If she couldn't understand anything, she would ask me.

The books I used to read were not for kids, I wasn't normal but she was, she was normal. She did her best for me, to keep me busy with books.

I was bullied due to my intelligence. I hated it, but still, I couldn't do anything. When I was home tutored, when Lier was in school, she was also being bullied. I was bullied due to my intelligence and I never studied anything and still, I felt like that when I got bullied.

"How did she feel?"

After spending time with me, Lier learned many things, but it was all her hard work. She was not gifted like me. She learned everything, and she got bullied, how did she feel?

It was worse for her, I was bullied by boys, but she was being bullied by both boys and girls. She never told her parents about it. When one of her friends reported it to her parents, my aunt told my grandpa about it. My grandpa loves Lier more than me. When my aunt told him about it, he demolished the school overnight. That caused a huge riot.

"I was not there with her."

She was with me, she supported me but I didn't. I never did anything for her. I am utter scum. Why is she still in love with me?

Ring~~ Ring~~

A text?

"It's Lier."

'I have reached home.'

"Uncle Ady drives fast"

Ring~~ Ring~~

"Another one?"

'I am sorry for kissing you'

"Why is she apologizing now",

'You can tell your girlfriend that I was the one who kissed you, she will not get angry at you'

"...."

'She will not dump you. Good night'

"Didn't she say she will make me break up with Elena so why is she giving advice that Elena won't dump me."

I should sleep now. This headache is killing me. I can't think straight because of it. I closed my eyes.

Hmm? Something is shining? I opened my eyes and there was the same light orb.

Where does it come from? It's not an insect and if I try to touch it, it disappears.

I will wait and see what it does. The orb just kept flying in the room and in front of my face. There is something under the light?

The orb landed on my forehead. It can touch me! It's soft...huh? My head doesn't hurt anymore. I tried to touch the orb but it disappeared.

The next morning I woke up at 8 or I wanted to but...

"Mom, Why didn't you wake me up?"

"I tried but you weren't waking up.", my mom said.

It's past 10. Elena will kill me. We promised that we would play at 9.

I ate breakfast and logged into the game.

[Welcome To Len World Online]

"Welcome prince Das." Elena greeted me, this is a greeting, right?

Prince Das?!

"I am sorry.", I apologized.

"You should be.", she said grumpily.

"Where are Ricky and Rikka?", I asked.

"They are helping out Ricky's brother."

"What?"

"Ricky gifted his brother a VR game and VR set."

His brother remembered! Poor Ricky.

"Where are they?"

"They should be around---here they are.", she said.

"Hey Adas.", Ricky greeted me.

Ricky, Rikka, and there is a girl with them.

"Who is that girl?"

"It's Ricky's brother.", Elena said.

"You mean his sister, right?", I asked.

"No, it's a boy. "

[It's a boy.]

"How is that possible?", I asked.

[A player can create 3 avatars.]

[The primary avatar should be the real gender, the other two avatars can be of any gender.]

"Hey Ricky.", I greeted Ricky back.

"Wow, this girl is so beautiful. Ricky, who is she?", Ricky's brother asked.

"She is our party leader.", Ricky answered.

"She is so beautiful. Hello, I am Joey. Do you have a boyfriend?"

"Hey Ricky, is it okay if I kill him?"

"It's not, Adas." Ricky then lookd at the girl and said, "Joey, she has a boyfriend."

"Aww, all the beautiful girls have a boyfriend.", he groaned.

Why is he acting like a girl?

"Adas, this girl here is my brother.", Ricky said.

This sounds hilarious for some reason.

"Wait...this scary guy looks like someone I know.", Joey said.

"Huh?", I looked at him.

"He looks like Das Ryle, and she looks like Elena."

How does he know our name?

"Are you that Joey?" Elena asked.

"Yes, your classmate."

Who?

"Elena, who is he?" I whispered to Elena.

"He is Joey, our classmate."

"I don't remember him. "

"He is the guy you wanted to throw out of the window."

"Oh, I remember now."

"Do you guys go to the same high school?", Ricky asked.

"Yeah.", I replied.

"Great.", Rikka said.

"Hey brother. ", Joey asked.

"What?", Ricky responded.

"Are these two close in the game too?"

"They are a couple, so yes."

"Do they kiss in the game too?"

"What the hell are you saying?", I interrupted him.

"This Thursday, when I was looking for him. I searched every room and then found him in one room but it was awkward for me to go in.", he said.

"...."

When he came in, we were kissing...wait, don't tell me that he saw it!

"They were kissing, they kept kissing. I had to make a sound to make them notice me.", he said.

"Hey Ricky, can I please kill him?"

"Even if I say yes, you can't kill him in a safe zone."

I glanced at Elena, her face is red, well my face is red too!

"Not only that, the next day when I was on my way home from school.", Joey continued.

"....."

Please no!

"When I stopped by the park, I saw them, they were kissing and Das was squeezing---"

"Hey Ricky, can you tell me his home address?"

"That depends on what you want to do with it.", Ricky said.

"I just want him to give a nice greeting."

"Please don't give it to him. He will kill me. He is terrifying.", Joey said while shivering.

"Joey, how many times do I have to tell you to keep your mouth shut when you should keep it shut.", Ricky said.

"I am sorry.", he apologized.

"Hey Adas, can you please let this one slide?", Ricky asked.

"Next time I see his face, I will kill him."

"I hope you guys get along in school. ", Rikka said.

"Are you okay Elena...guess you are not."

"Das."

"Hmm?"

"My mentor just sent me a message that she is waiting at the café."
