Chapter 45 - Side story (First Love)

(Bao Dai's POV)

My name is Bao Dai, I'm our school's pro basketball player and not to brag...but I'm quite popular with girls.

I got invitations from our school's famous clique all the time... but I always reject them...why you ask?

"hey!! champ!!! try to cover me!!!"

"what the fuck!!! no Bao, cover me instead!!! this idiot always charges in and when he dies, he blame it on us!!!"

"shut up Otaku!!!"

well....you could say, I have some...uh... really interesting friends...

"ugh!!! you died again!!! you fucking idiot!!!"

Tang Hua Ha aka Otaku, our group's anime nerd and gaming expert...

"uh... no...it's all your fault!!! you guys didn't cover me well!!!"

Jiao Long, aka jake....our group's tough guy...

"see Bao!! that's what I was talking about!!!!"

*doorbell rings*

"alright guys, enough fighting, I think the pizza we ordered has finally arrived..."

And Chao Xiang.... he's basically the mother of our group...and keeps the peace between all of us...

but these days, I have been seeing something really strange...

.

.

.

"see ya jake~"

"eh...uh...yeah same here!!"

.

.

.

my friend Jake, who I thought is gonna be single forever has finally found himself a girlfriend....

Her name is Fu Zia...and even though she wears boyish clothes, has a pixie cut and is quite a tomboy....she's really beautiful and has a nice personality

they both met at an arcade and surprisingly both of them hit it off.

"haha guess who's gonna act all superior from now on...ugh!!! I'm so jealous right now!!!"

"hahaha, be jealous of me Otaku, I'm your god now!!!"

" I'm really happy that you finally got someone for you Jake.."

"haha, thanks Chao Xiang!! I never thought a day like this would come..."

"ugh!!! I never should've brought you to that arcade!!!"

"haha quit complaining and keeping bowing to your god!!"

as Jake said this, poor Otaku who once made a bet that if Jake got a girlfriend before us, he'll make Jake his god....now had no choice but to bow down to him...

I'm really glad that he found his significant other...but if there's something I learnt in life.... it's that nothing goes entirely as planned...

( A week later...)

As I was going home from my practice.... I noticed someone so depressed that I could see black clouds over their head....this person was none other than my friend Jake...

'But...today was supposed to be his second date with Fu Zia....how come he's alone?'

.

.

.

"wait so.... you're saying that..."

after I confronted him about it....well it turned out that he got dumped....well sort of...

(during date...)

"Jake, I'm sorry.... I know that you're a really good guy and I'm sure you'll definitely gonna find someone better.."

"wha....what do you mean?? it's only been a two weeks since we started dating?"

after a moment of silence....Jake once again opened his mouth....

"is it because you like someone else?"

she silently nodded....

(present)

"woah....that sucks man!!!.....so who is he?"

Jake remained silent for a moment before answering...

"she.."

"what?"

"it's not he.... it's she..."

(once again during date..)

both Jake and Fu Zia were sitting on the bench while talking....

"wait...so you just found out that you're into girls?"

"yeah.... I know it's wrong to break up with you... afterall you treated me so nice and never gave a chance to complain....but..."

after a moment of silence....

"....fuu....well guess there's nothing I can do then..."

"...will you be okay?"

"haha yeah.... I will be fine... I have great friends to support me and it's not like we're breaking up on bad terms or anything....so I guess this is fine...."

"....thanks for understanding.... you're truly the best jake~"

she said this and left...but not before giving Jake a little hug...

"bye Jake~"

(present)

. . . .to be honest, I don't know whether to be upset at the fact that my friend got dumped by the girl he was dating...or laugh over the fact that the girl he was dating turned out to be Lesbian....well in the end, I decided to just cheer him up a little...

"don't worry Jake, there are plenty of fishes in the sea..... unfortunately, you my friend, are a herbivore..."

"...is that a personal attack or something?"

After that we called the other two and played "Call of Work" the whole night.... forgetting that we had classes the next day...
