In a city far from Iba called Angeles City, a girl is sitting inside her room, staring at the iPad screen in her hand.
Baba Live Stream is currently playing on her iPad and on it, the picture of Jay singing is shown.
This girl is the one who entered Jay's stream, BabaViewer111.
In the real world, her name is Kyla.
At this time, she's still watching Jay try hard singing, going out of tune from time to time.
With a laughing smile on her face, she said, "This guy is handsome, but he really can't sing."
After Jay finished singing, Kyla talked to him for a while before leaving the live room.
Then, Kyla pressed an icon and saved a screen recording.
Kyla has actually been recording as she goes through life just for the sake of it.
A lot of people do this as a hobby and post it on their social media.
Kyla does that as well.
Anyway, after she saved the video, she started editing it, clipping some parts and adding some effects.
Once all of that were done, Kyla watched it again and a smile appeared on her face.
"Hmm, since I find this one funny, I think I'll post it as well."
With some maneuvers on her device, Kyla posted the video on her TokTok, a short video platform.
At the same time, she also sent the video to a gc where a lot of her friends are and said,
[Guys, look at this guy. He's handsome, isn't he? Hahahaha.]
After doing all that, Kyla threw her iPad on the bed and laid down.
Staring at the ceiling, she slowly drifted off deep into her own thoughts.
…
Oblivious to all this, Jay is still streaming at this time.
Unfortunately, after Kyla or BabaViewer111 left, no one entered again.
"Hays, it's really hard for people to enter my live."
Shaking his head, Jay turned his attention to something else.
In front of his eyes, a translucent screen is visible with a few words on it.
[Congratulations, you completed the achievement 'Sing to your viewer in your live stream'!]
[Rewards are now being distributed.]
[You acquired the skill 'Singing' level 1.]
[You acquired 5,000 Pesos.]
…
Seeing the consecutive messages from the cube, Jay's eyes widened in surprise. He was immediately attracted to the rewards given.
"5,000 Pesos? The cube even gives money as a reward?!" he exclaimed.
Right now, one of Jay's problems is actually money.
Jay is only from a poor family.
They don't have the capability to send Jay to college, resulting in an embarrassing situation.
In order to study, he supported himself by doing part-time jobs and he managed up until now.
Originally, Jay's income from his part-time jobs is just enough for him to get by every month as long as he sparingly uses it.
But, just last week, his family suddenly called him and asked for some money.
It's because his father's been in an accident, needing him to go to the hospital.
With no other choice, Jay sent all of his money, leaving only 500 pesos for himself.
And right now, only 100 pesos remains from that money.
It's still a week away from his next pay day, making him worried about the coming days.
Unexpectedly, he actually encountered a miraculous thing today!
Jay couldn't remove his eyes from the 5,000 pesos on the translucent screen.
Just then, his phone on the side suddenly rang, attracting his attention.
Picking it up, a wide smile appeared on his face.
It's because there's a message on his phone from his mobile wallet that says,
[You received 5,000 pesos from International Cube Foundation. Your total balance is 5,003 pesos.]
"Hahaha, it's here!"
Jay immediately cheered, feeling extreme joy in his heart.
He finally doesn't have to worry about how to go through this month!
However, Jay immediately suppressed his emotions at this time.
That's because he's still live streaming and somebody entered his live room again.
[YourBiBi entered the room.]
[YourBiBi: You look so happy tonight, Jay. What happened?]
Jay saw the new viewer and smiled, "Oh Bibi, welcome, welcome to the live."
YourBiBi is one of Jay's few viewers in this live room.
Whenever he turns on his live, YourBiBi will always be there. If not, that means she's just late, like tonight.
[YourBiBi: So, what's making you so happy? Don't tell me, did you get a girlfriend? HAHAHA.]
Jay laughed at the comment and said, "How could having a girlfriend make me this happy? Of course it was about money!"
"I just got 5,000 pesos!"
Hearing that, YourBiBi responded,
[YourBiBi: Right, I almost forgot that you're that kind of man. Tsk tsk.]
Jay felt the contempt from the comment but didn't seem to care.
"Yeah yeah," He said, "Well, since you've been a loyal viewer to me since the day I started, how about I dance for you?"
After tasting the sweetness from the Cube's reward, Jay wants to hurry up and complete more achievements.
However, his viewer reacted differently from what's expected.
[YourBiBi: Dance? You? Jay, let's not kid here. I've already seen you dance before. How to say this… it was like I was watching a bamboo move around so stiffly.]
Seeing that, Jay paused,
"You… Bibi, you're really harsh to me."
Clicking his tongue, he said, "Tsk tsk. It doesn't matter. I'll just show you my dance moves."
Getting up from his seat, Jay moved the chair to the side first and stood at the center of the room, facing the computer.
With his phone in his hand, Jay started the music and got ready.
As the melody started, Jay started moving, trying his best to dance the same way he saw on the internet before.
Unfortunately, Jay doesn't have even an ounce of dancing skills in his body.
He moved his hands around, swaying it for no reason. His body was straight, like a wood that couldn't be bent.
Even the way he moves his feet looks chaotic and without rhythm.
YourBibi's comment was indeed not an exaggeration.
…
In a far away place, a certain girl face palm as she watched Jay dance.
"This is what I'm talking about…"
