Chereads / The Rendezvous: Pompeii / Chapter 2 - introduction

Chapter 2 - introduction

~Dusan~(July 21 2019):

But thankfully the winner of the second round was the same person who won the first. So he had most of his energy drained.

the whistle screeched. It was my round (Took me awhile to realise that). Both of us stared at each other, waiting for the other to move. I am sure he got sick of my stupid face with bright silver eyes (that of a Wolf's), well he made the first move. He came running to punch me. I dodged the punch and grabbed the arm, swung it over my shoulder and did a judo flip.

That guy was pretty heavy so I too fell down with him. For a few moments I did not understand what the situation was (why was I so stupid and weak?). But after I came to my senses I realised I was sitting on that fat guy's face.

He had fainted (I don't know if it was due to my underwear or the judo flip).

And just like that I won the jade choker. After the match a girl came to me, it was the same girl with red hair.

"Hey, Remember me? We met-"

"Yeah, I do"

"You did well for a man who ran into a pole", she teased.

I let an embarrassed laugh.

"Call me Pricsilla.", She introduced herself.

"Dusan", I said and looked at the choker. "Take it, I don't have any female relatives anyway", I handed the choker to her.

She took it and and gave me a bright smile,"thanks!!"

I watched her as she walked away.

Suddenly someone tapped on my shoulder, "Yo dude you've been standing there for a while."

"Uhh"

"Dude?! DUDE!!"

"Uhh.. Ohhh... Ummm... Sorry what?"

"What are you still standing here for? that girl left half an hour ago!!"

"Ohh!! Sorry, I-I-I didn't realise..."

That man shook his head with a naughty smile and left. Great!! I've embarrassed myself twice after coming here!! Congratulations Dusan!!

Wait.. why the hell did I give away a precious JADE choker away for free?! I could have sold it for some good amount of money!! I felt ridiculous, so stupid!! UGHHH!!!

To get a piece of mind, I left for a walk.

"So travel back, down that road and will she come back, no one knows and I realise, it was only just a dreeeaaaamm....(just a dream~bruno mars)" I sang as I walked past a pole (but this time I didn't walk straight into it, don't worry). I stopped at the zebra crossing and waited for the signal (am a person who follows traffic rules).

PING!! Signal came and I crossed halfway, when I tripped over my shoe lace and fell. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! How much bad luck can a person have?!

I crossed the road finally and tied my lace in the pathway. I heard some screeching noise, when I looked up I saw a nice sports car (probably mercedes-AMG C 63) and BANG!!

I felt a sudden sting followed by some immense pain. I heard people screaming, and my vision started to blur. My consciousness started to fade away.
