Chereads / A Handsome Devil Persona / Chapter 4 - Clubs

Chapter 4 - Clubs

In the previous chapter, Alex class students already started making groups as per their interest and similar feature. Alex joined 'Entertainment group', later in sport class. Physical activity happened, When Amy make fun of all boys.

As the school day concluded, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement as various clubs prepared to extend invitations to prospective members. Alex and his friends gathered to discuss which club to join, each sharing their interests and preferences.

"Hey, guys, what clubs are you thinking of joining?" Alex asked, leaning against a nearby wall.

Tus, Lily, Tommy, and Sunny exchanged thoughtful glances. Tus suggested, "How about each of us tries out clubs today, and then we can meet tomorrow to share our experiences and decide?"

The idea resonated with the group, and they agreed to explore individual interests before reconvening the next day. Lily paired up with Tus, and Tommy joined Sunny as they set out to discover the diverse clubs the school had to offer.

Alex, drawn to the allure of dramatic expression, initially wandered towards the dance club. However, upon reaching the club room, he was disappointed to learn that the group had already reached its maximum capacity for members. Only accepting talented dancers. Still Alex was glad as he was able to see a group dance performance.

Led was taken a 3-year student, wearing tight black top and bottom, tied silver hair, red lips, deep silver eyes, plane white skin. Followed by three more students to back her steps. In the back there were 6 more students for background dance steps. After watching such beautiful dance Alex also started moving his hands and legs in a funny way trying to imitate their elegant dance steps. 

"isn't Jil best dancer here" one boy said. "I heard she was contacted by a dancing industry" other girl said.

Alex after hearing thought to himself 'She can be an actress with such performance'. 

Undeterred, he decided to venture towards the sports club, despite knowing that his physical prowess wasn't a strong suit. Intrigued by the rumor that the club president, Aliza, a stunning second-year with exceptional swordsmanship skills, led the group, he couldn't resist taking a look.

She wear white kimono, yellow hair knot, relaxed peach face. Swinging sword at her opponent, 1st uppercut that was dodge her opponent. Slash forward towards Aliza, Aliza counter her by blocking then suddenly closing distance. Aliza make a attack on opponents head, thus Aliza wins everyone *claps* for her such performance.

'will i able to learn that' Alex thought. But after looking at his body, he thinks 'why not join a club where more girls less boys, my chances will by high. In here it is like thousand fisher for a single fish. 

After witnessing some impressive swordplay, he realized that the sports club might not be the best fit for him. Resolute, he sought solace in his charisma and decided to explore the drama club, where his "handsome devil persona" might find a suitable stage.

However, fate had other plans. The drama club, too, had already reached its limit for new members, leaving Alex contemplating his next move.

'Atleast take a look, Ray and Mia is also here' he muttered. Both his classmate were on stage playing role of Romeo and Juliet. Alex watches Mia get flustered as Ray get on his nee, holding her right hand in his both hands.

"Juliet I love you, will you marry me" Ray asks with a determent in his eyes. "Yes, Romeo, I love you too" Mia says with flustered face with a big smile, forming small tears in her eyes.

Both of their face come near each other, looking deeply into eyes. Just a inch distance between their lips.

"And cut!" Alex said from background. Before anyone can look who said, Alex hide between the crowd.

'I was just about to kiss her' Ray muttered to himself. Mia also sighted, Alex also left the drama club so no one see who he was.

Undeterred, he decided to check out the game club, hoping to find like-minded individuals who shared his passion for gaming.

Upon entering the game club's room, he was pleasantly surprised to find Lily and Tus engrossed in a gaming competition. Eager to join them, he approached with a smile. "Hey, guys! Mind if I join in?"

Lily looked up from the screen and grinned. "Of course, Alex! We just started a gaming competition. Want to give it a shot?"

Excitement surged within Alex as he took a seat and grabbed a controller.

Game was mortal combat, Alex chosen the Joker as he played with Kung Lao the mostly in previous Mortal Kombat game. His opponent was a girl named Vivien, she chose Kitana.

Kung Lao, under Alex's command, utilized his razor-sharp hat as both a projectile and a close-range weapon. With swift and acrobatic movements, Kung Lao aimed to outmaneuver Kitana and strike with precision. Meanwhile, Vivien, controlling Kitana, relied on her agile and graceful fighting style, armed with her steel fans that could be deployed for both offensive and defensive maneuvers.

As the fight progressed, Alex strategically exploited Kung Lao's teleportation abilities to surprise Kitana and gain the upper hand. Vivien, on the other hand, showcased Kitana's quick strikes and aerial assaults, attempting to keep Kung Lao at a distance.

The clash of these two iconic Mortal Kombat characters, guided by the skilled hands of Alex and Vivien, created a thrilling virtual reality experience that combined elements of role-playing, strategy, and fast-paced combat.

However, his enthusiasm quickly turned to frustration as he lost all five matches to a skilled gamer from 1-D, Vivien.

Determined to save face, Alex chuckled nervously. "Well, looks like I need to warm up. Let's play again sometime."

As Vivien left, he couldn't shake off the sting of defeat. 'I can't believe I lost to a girl,' he muttered to himself, questioning his gaming skills.

Deciding to explore more options, Alex left the game club room just as the clock struck 4:55. With the school day winding down, he resolved to explore other clubs tomorrow. "I'll make my decision then," he mused.

As he walked out, contemplating his next move, Alex couldn't help but reflect on the day's events.
