A Peculiar Encounter

Lying on the street, heavily injured. His head is bleeding and he sees a glimpse of his life. Then, he saw something mysterious. But before that let's go back to flashback.

There is a boy named Elil Malhotra. He is an Indian-born boy who lives in Japan. He has a handsome and stunning personality and moreover, he is kind. But still, at one glance, you can say he is not from Japan. Elil loves his country India the most. Elil's parents are researchers and for research purposes, they both transferred to Japan. When they transferred, he also transferred to Japan in his early teenage years. He studied in Tokyo. After a few years when his parents' research was completed, they went back to India but Elil didn't return to India because he got used to Japan and was studying at a top university in Tokyo. He majors in nanotechnology. He is a successful man and he has a well-established company of his own. He has a beautiful girlfriend named Aoi Fujiwara. At a point, anyone could say he was the happiest person but suddenly everything shattered. He was fired from his own company. His own best friend conspires against him. He took over the whole company. His girlfriend left him for someone else.

Elil: Aoi-chan, why are you breaking up with me? Don't you love me?

Aoi: Elil-kun, listen you are bankrupt now and I don't want my husband to be a beggar. So, forget about me. My new boyfriend is so rich.

Elil: But Aoi-chan, what about our promise of marriage? What about our love?

Aoi: That's all in past. I don't love you anymore. You are just filth on the ground. Thus, I don't want your involvement in my life.

Elil: Okay, as you wish. I can't stop you. But I want to warn you about something, don't let him seduce you because that person doesn't have a good image among girls. So, beware of him.

Aoi: You don't need to care about me.

Then, suddenly her new boyfriend called her,

Strange man: Hey babes! Let's go.

Aoi: I am coming, baby. Let's go for dinner.

After that, she went to that strange guy. She humiliated him and broke up with him. He is so broken. He has fallen in the dumps. He cried for hours. He went back to his house.

The next morning, He thought let's start a new life. He goes to college. And there he met Yui Kitagawa. She is the best friend of Aoi.

Yui: Elil-kun, good morning.

Elil: Yui-san, morning.

Yui: Are you alright?

When she said that, he told the whole story to her. After that

Yui: How outrageous! How could she leave you when you need her most? It's unbelievable. I am so sad for you. Just thinking about it makes my heart ache.

Elil: It's okay, Yui-san. I don't want anything. Let her be happy anywhere she could be. That's all I want.

Yui: You are so kind to her. She humiliates you and even you are not angry. How could she make you cry? You did everything for her but still, she left.

Elil: You know what I just lost my meaning to live. I don't want to live any more. I think I should just return to India.

Yui: Are you serious? Are you returning to India?

When he says that, he wants to return to his own country.

Yui: Elil-kun, you can't give up like this. How about we go out tomorrow? Just to cheer you up?

Elil: I don't think that's a good idea, Yui-san.

Yui crossed her arms and tilted her head.

Yui: Oh, so I'm not your friend now?

Elil sighed, a faint smile tugging at his lips.

Elil: That's not what I meant. Fine. One outing. But only because you insist.

Yui: Then, it decided. You are going on a date. Let's go on a date to change your mood. Please...

Elil: Okay, let's go on a date. Where will we meet?

Yui: I will meet you at the station at ten o'clock.

Elil: Okay, I will be there.

After that, he started preparing for the date. Internally, he doesn't want to go anywhere. But, just for the sake of his friendship. He will go. He went to the station to meet her.

At the station, Yui was already there.

Elil: Am I late? Sorry to keep you waiting.

Yui: No, you are early. It's only 9:30 am.

Elil: Then, why are you standing here before me?

Yui: It looks like I also came before that scheduled time.

Elil: It's okay. Let's go.

Yui: We will surely enjoy our date.

First, they went to a cafe.

Yui: This cafe is the best and serves the best coffee. Look, our coffee is served.

Elil: You are right this is the best coffee. I have never tasted coffee like this before.

Yui: Thank god, you like it. I am worried that you won't like it.

Elil: I love it and coffee tastes better with you.

Yui: Are you trying to hit on me?

Elil: No, you are not correct.

Yui: Okay, okay, don't get excited.

Elil: After here, where are we going?

Yui: It's a secret. Let's go to another destination.

They left the cafe and went toward their next destination. When they were walking, Yui suddenly held his hands.

Elil: Yui-san, don't you think it's embarrassing walking while holding hands?

Yui: Did you say I am not beautiful thus, you don't want to walk while holding hands?

Elil: It is not like that, you are so beautiful and cute. But, I think people will misunderstand us.

Yui: I don't care about others. I am here only to cheer up your mood. Just think you owe me one and just enjoy this to your fullest.

Elil: Thank you , Yui-san.

After that, they went to the shopping complex,

Elil: Are we going to go shopping?

Yui: Yes, you are going to help me buy a dress.

When they entered the story, Elil saw a gorgeous dress.

Elil: Yui-san, that dress looks marvellous on you.

Then, Yui called the shop owner and asked,

Shop Owner: How may I help you?

Yui: May you pack that dress?

Shop owner: Okay, Miss I shall pack this dress.

Elil: Why are you buying this dress? Don't you think you need to try it before buying it?

Yui: You said that would suit me. Thus, I am buying it. I trust you.

Elil: Are you sure?

Yui: I am damn sure. This is the one you pick for me.

Elil: Thank you, Yui. You treat me better.

His eyes fill up with tears.

Elil: I am really lucky to have a friend like you.

Yui: It's okay. You don't need to cry. I am always here for you.

But there is a bit of disappointment on Yui's face when he says she is a precious friend of his. Then,

Elil: What happened?

Yui: Nothing. Let's move to a different place.

Elil: Okay.

After that, we went to an aquarium and amusement park. In evening,

Yui: How do you feel now? Are you still going back?

Elil: I feel so refreshed. Spending the whole day with you is amazing. I hope we will go on dates frequently.

Yui: If you say so, I like this idea.

When they were talking to each other. Some punks come to them.

Punk 1: Hey boy, he got such a delicious girl with him.

Punk 2: You pathetic guy. Give your girl for one night.

Elil: You bastards don't come near us. Just fuck off.

Punk 3: Aren't you scared of us? We don't want your girlfriend for always. Just one night is enough for us. We make sure that your girlfriend sees heaven with her eyes.

Elil: I will fucking kill you. All of you are an asshole.

Yui: Elil-kun, let's get out of here.

When we were leaving, one of them held Yui's hands. He doesn't let her go. Thus, Elil tries to save her to prevent him, but they push him away. He heads strike on the pole. His head starts bleeding. He saw that they were harassing Yui. But he can't do anything. He was losing consciousness. He was blacking out.

Yui: Elil-kun , wake up. Let me go. He will die at this rate.

Punk 2: He is suffering because of his arrogance.

Punk 3: We are going pound you all night.

Punk 1: This is fantastic. You are sexy, we will have so much fun tonight.

Elil: Yui-san, run . Yui...

He blacked out. He thought,

Elil: I am such a pathetic guy. I was cheated by my best friend. I lost my company. My girlfriend ditched me. Now, the girl who helps me. I can't even save her. Now, I am dying. God, you are so unfair. I don't want you to save me, just save Yui-san. I can't let that happen but I can't do anything. I am so arrogant. Please save her.

When he totally blacks out, after he wakes up he finds himself in some different space. There is nothing but white which expands to infinity. He thinks he is in the afterlife. Suddenly,

Unknown voice: Hey Boy, do you want to save her? Do you want to get rid of this pathetic life? Do you want to get on top of life?

Elil: Yes, I want to save her.

Unknown voice: You can call me Isabel. I am a system, I will help to get what you desire and get rid of all your problems.

Elil: But why do you want to help me ? What is this system?

Isabel: I will tell you about everything but right now we have priority. Let's save your first soulmate.

Elil: What do you mean by soulmate? Forgot about it. How would I be able to save her?

Isabel: Let me tell you about finding your first soulmate. I will provide 10 points in strength, 20 points in endurance and 30 points in agility. Let's save her. I will explain later.

After that, he woke. His head is still spinning but he can feel that he has new power. He moves towards them. He saw they were trying to strip her. He jumps and kicks the punk 1. He holds the neck of Punk 1 and strikes the head of punk into the wall due to this the punk's head starts bleeding.

Elil: Hey you motherfucker! Leave her alone.

Punk 3: You son of bitch. You think you can play the knight in silver armour and save your princess. It's your delusion.

Elil: Come if you have balls. Don't worry Yui, I am going to knock out all of them. I will save you

Yui: I knew you wouldn't have died.

Punk 2: Don't celebrate too early.

After, he started beating everyone. Punks 2 and 3 come together to him. Punk 2 tries to strike Elil's crotch. Elil blocks Punk's attack makes him lie on the ground and then steps on his crotch. He smashes the punk's balls . Then, punk 3 attacked him from behind. Elil dodged his attack and counterattacked his vital points like nose and legs. Punk 3 faints for the second. Then,

Punk2: Boss, it feels like. He is a whole new guy. It is really hard to beat him.

Punk 1: Let's strike together. Then, we will outnumber him and we will surely win. And have feist tonight.

Punk 3: What else can he do? He will be able to fight us separately but he will not be able to fight all of us together.

Then, Elil picks up a metal pipe lying on the ground. He was nervous. He heard the voice of Isabel.

Isabel: Don't be nervous. You can beat them, very easily.

Then,

Elil: Who else wants to fight me? Come on.

Punk 1: Boys everyone together. We are going to win.

They attack him but are not able to win. He fights back with the metal pipe. He will be able to beat them easily.

Elil: Don't show us your face in future. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe.

They all run away. They said," Wait for us and you will not be able to win next time."

Elil: Are you alright, Yui-san?

Yui: Yes, I am alright.

Then, suddenly Elil fainted.

Yui: What happened? So much blood has been lost.

Yui called the ambulance and took Elil to the hospital.
