Act 3 (1) ACADEMY

So, the things that are to be bought to the academy were, Clothes, the kit bag with the equipment, Some bats.

And Notebooks, bag and many other things among them.

But, for starters... I had to bid farewell to the flower shop.

"Looks like the last day's going to be hectic."

"Shut up."

"Sorry."

This red head's been quite moody leately. Is something wrong with her?

"Are you sad that your handsome oppa is leaving?"

Aah saying that cringed me up so bad

"Ofcourse not... W... Who's gonna be sad at your lame ass leaving."

"Talk about rude. I won't be coming back you know. Atleast for the next 3 years. And by than, You'll probably be doing another job"

"Hey... Don't go about jinxing my Business like that."

"Aah boss that wasn't my intention."

"Than what was your intention young man?"

"I just meant she would probably get a full time job since she'd be done with graduation that's all."

"So now that you got accepted into KSA You think you are hot shit now is that it?"

"No boss. I'm sorry I'll keep quiet."

Why's everyone so... Angry at me today.

I thought they'd be more sad...

"Heh boss, you are aren't any better than us now are you."

"Aah... What... What do you mean, It's not like I'm scolding him because I am sad or anything like that."

"Aah... A tsundere a tsundere. I just laid my eyes on a real tsundere."

"I'm... In not a tsunade or whatever it's called."

"You are... You very much are boss. I'll start calling you tsunade from now on... Tsunade pffftttt*"

"That's it, 100000 Won cut from your pay check."

"What?? bossz that was a harmless joke please don't do this I have a family to feed."

"Family? acting like you aren't from some rich Businessman are you?"

"I... I'm sorry boss please. I apologise."

"I'm sorry aswell boss."

I wholeheartedly said.

"I don't know if I've ever been useful in this place but, You have done alot for me. I'll be sure to definately work for you the rest of my life even if that means I were selected or not I'll always work for you boss."

"Now, that's a good way to look for permanent employment."

"I didn't mean it that way."

I kept my head down, realising I should just keep my mouth shut.

"*Sigh* it's fine young lad, I know how hard you have worked I know you sure as hell would come back to work for me even if you were to earn a monthly pay of over 100 Million won. I know the kind of guy you are. So, if you end up failing... I'll always be waiting to take you back in."

While, I didn't like how she jinxed my entire life just now.

I still felt happy that I had somewhere to come if I were To flop.

"You are probably the best Boss that I've ever come across Boss. I'm sure you'll find a handsome, rich and young man who'll marry you and take good care of you."

"Why don't you become that handsome, Rich young man."

I felt flustered at that unexpected response.

"Well sadly, I don't fit the criteria. I'm neither young, nor am I handsome or rich."

"I'd like to disagree. You are young, You are... Fine looking."

What's up with the pause?

"Aand... You'll probably become very rich if this keeps up."

"Well... You'll have to be willing to marry me than boss. You'll probably be 40 by the time I become rich and I'd be 32."

She's about 8 years older than me so that about fits it

"Would you be willing to marry a 40 year old?"

"You look beautiful enough at 30. I'm sure you'll be even more beautiful once you turn 40. you'll have so many men around you... You'll probably forget I exist."

The back and forth banter was going good.

I felt like I was giving good comebacks to all the mockery I'm getting.

She's obviously joking. If she wasn't I wouldn't be this comfortable about the entire conversation.

"Aah... Damn, looks like it's time."

Everyone looked at me with soleim eyes.

"You... Really going?"

"Gimmi your number."

the red head came up asking for my number.

"Me too... Me too."

"Me three me three."

Haa... It feels like I'm in some kind of fan meet.

And giving autographs.

It... Was nice knowing this place.

"I'll be back. I'll definately come back. Doesn't matter if I make it big or not. This is ultimately my 2nd home afterall."

"You'd better because I'll drag you back myself."

"Yes... Boss. I'll see you in 3 years."

"Yes... Good luck."

And so, I departed for the final time.

To the Seoul's Korean Sports Academy.

...

Aah... This place is... Huge.

Just the map is enough to say that this place is frekin Huge.

So, that's the entrance hall.

Is that where the Entrance Ceremony being held?

This makes me Kinda nervous.

I wonder... How people will treat cricket, in Korea.

...

Wow... The women in the academy... They are beautiful.

Every last one of them.

They aren't just beautiful but also have perfect body features.

Slim, have the right curves, and just perfection.

I'm definately not lusting, just admiring their beauty.

I have no intention of laying my hands and taunting them with my filth.

Yaa, that's what I think to cope with the fact that no women that beautiful would ever like me.

It's also self loathing but it's a stage where it's better to think that I made the decision rather than get rejected and feel sad your whole life.

When you know you'll get rejected there's no... Maybe if I said that she'd have accepted.

Bullshit, I call it. You are able to satisfy yourself by thinking that.

That's the Advantage of not confessing.

YoU can believe that maybe she'd have liked me if I said it to her.

But, when you know she'll reject you there's no cuckoldry nor is there any sort of regret.

If I don't confess to my loved ones and they ned up falling for someone else.

That ain't cuckoldry since the only reason I didn't tell her my feelings was because I knew 100% that she'd have rejected me.

My only redeeming point was... I could thing, she actually liked me but gave up on me since I didn't tell her that I liked her.

If you think this is cuckoldry tan idk what to say.

Even if we'd done the deed and someone else did it with her and felt better if wouldn't chance the end result.

Cuckoldry was going happen no matter what decision I took, it's only a matter of either having self satisfaction or rotting your head with regret.

I'd much rather live in delusion than Think my delusions might be real and make a decision based off it.

I'm delusional no doubt but not to an extent where I believe my delusions are real.

That's insanity, that's no longer delusion. I have delusions to run away from reality, not make it my reality.

I know the difference between Delusion and Reality. I don't inter connect them especially with the matter of love.

If I believe ill someday be the best batter in the world than that ain't delusion because I can make it come true, if i do excellently well.

Like maybe hit a 100 international 100's or something like that. If i have talent i can make it happen.

But, if I say that girl likes me even though she's showing obvious signs of disgust.

That my friend is what you'd call insanity.
