Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Shopping

Ray woke up the next morning feeling refreshed and strong. Looking at the time, he saw that it was after 11 in the morning.

"What the fuck, how long did I sleep for," shouted Ray in surprise.

He checked his phone and found 12 missed calls and all were from Jack. He called him back immediately.

"Hey Jack," said Ray.

"What were you doing since?" asked Jack through the phone.

"I just woke up," said Ray yawning.

"At this time?" said Jack angrily.

"It is what it is," replied Ray ignoring Jack's tone.

"Fine, we need to talk," said Jack.

"Ok," said Ray nonchalantly.

"I will pick you in an hour," said Jack.

"Buy me breakfast on your way," said Ray.

"Ok, I will," replied Jack.

"Ciao," said Ray hanging up the phone. "Ah this is so tiring," said Ray as he drops his phone to go and have his bath.

"Oh, I forgot to call the handyman to come and fix the door," said Ray as he just remember that he broke the door yesterday.

He went in and take his bath with the broke shower.

10 minutes after, Ray came of the bathroom with a twitching annoying face.

"Fuck fuck fuck," said Ray in anger.

He rushed to the bed and picked his phone, he dial the number of the handyman, Bob.

"Hey Bob," said Ray as Bob picked the phone.

"Sorry, who is this?" asked Bob through the phone.

"It is Ray," replied Ray.

"Oh Ray, how are you doing?" asked Bob.

"I am not doing good," said Ray.

"Huh, what happened," said Bob.

"You need to come over and help to fix things," said Ray.

"What did you break this time," said Bob gruntled over the phone.

"Many things, but it is all in the bedroom and bathroom," said Ray scratching his head in embarrassment.

"Fine, I will be there in 2 hours time, I have an appointment now," said Bob.

"Okay, I will drop the key in the usual spot," said Ray.

"You won't be around?" asked Bob.

"Yes I am going shopping," said Ray.

"Okay, I will send you the bill after the repairs," said Bob.

"Okay, bye," said Ray as he hangs up the phone.

He went to his wardrobe to pick some clothes and get dressed while waiting for Jack to come and pick him up.

30 minutes later, Jack arrived at Ray's house and brought the food with him.

"Oh you are here, did you bring the food?" asked Ray immediately he opens the door for Jack.

"Won't you let me enter first," said Jack.

"Did you bring the food," said Ray again ignoring Jack's question.

"Sigh, I brought the food," said Jack sighing as he shows Ray the McDonalds he bought for him.

"Really, thanks man, you are a life saver," said Ray as he snatches the McDonalds bag from Jack's hand.

"Can I come in now?" asked Jack.

"Sorry, you can come in," said Ray as he already brought out the food to start eating.

"Sigh, what the hell happened to you," said Jack as he walks into the living room.

"Table manners please," said Ray with food in his mouth as he had already start eating.

"Fine, but once you finish eating, we are discussing all this," said Jack as he sat the couch.

"Thank you, oh and you will have to take me shopping," said Ray while eating.

"Shopping? What for?" asked Jack confused.

"My.... " paused Ray as he tries to swallow the food in his mouth before continuing "My current clothes doesn't fit me again so I have to get new clothes," said Ray.

Jack looked at Ray from head to toe and nods to Ray's word.

"You need to get new clothes indeed," said Jack.

"So you will make me mo mhe mall," mumbled Ray with food in his mouth.

"Eat first," said Jack.

20 minutes later, Ray finish eating and cleans up the table before coming back to met Jack in the living room.

"Let's go," said Ray to Jack.

"Like this?" asked Jack as he confused with the way Ray dressed.

"What is wrong with my dressing?" asked Ray.

"Everything is wrong dude, why will you wear your pyjamas to buy clothes, I mean who does that?" said Jack feeling frustrated.

"My clothes are not fitting for me again," said Ray.

"Don't you have any shorts and big top that you can put on," said Jack.

"Fine," said Ray as he went back to his room and change his clothes.

10 minutes later, Ray came out putting on a white shorts and a black top.

"How do I look," asked Ray posing for Jack.

"Better, now let's go," said Jack as he stood up and walk to towards the door.

"Ok, let me pick my phone," said Ray as he went to pick his phone from the kitchen.

"Ok, meet me by the car," said Jack as he is already outside the house.

Ray came out of the house and kept the key under the flower vase by the door side and went to meet Jack in the car.

"You are not holding your key?" asked Jack.

"Ah yes, Bob is coming by to help me repair somethings in the house," said Ray as he puts on his seatbelt.

"Ok, let's go," said Jack as he starts the car.

Both of them went to mall which is an hour drive from Ray's house. Arriving at the mall, Ray puts on a mask.

"Why the mask," asked Jack.

"Oh this, it is not," said Ray as he adjusts the mask properly.

"Sigh, you still have tell me what happened to you," said Jack.

"I will explain it to later," as he comes down from the car.

They went into the mall and straight to 12th floor as that is the floor of all clothing stores.

"So where are we going exactly," asked Jack.

"I don't know, any of them will do as long as there are clothes that can fit me," said Ray nonchalantly.

"Fine, let go the Louis Vuitton store," said Jack as he walks toward the Louis Vuitton store.

Entering the store, one of the receptionists greets them formal with respect.

"Welcome to the Louis Vuitton store, how may I help you sir," asked the receptionist.

"I need clothes that can fit him," said Jack as he points at Ray who is standing next to him.

"Ok sir, follow me," said the receptionist as she left the desk for her partners.

"Wow, the guy in shorts is very handsome even with mask on," said one of the receptionist.

"Yeah, but I prefer the other one, just hearing his voice is like heaven to me," said the second receptionist with hearts in her eyes.

"Really, how about you ask for his number," said the first receptionist.

"Forget it, he might have a girlfriend already so don't let me get embarrassed," said the second receptionist feeling down.

"Cheer up, you won't know if you don't try," said the first receptionist as she tries to cheer up her partner.

"Really, okay I will try my luck and see how it goes," said the second receptionist happily.

Unbeknown to them, there was someone that heard their conversation due to sensitive hearing. Ray whispered into Jack's ear what he had just heard now.

Jack looked at Ray confused as to how Ray could hear them despite being far from them. Ray smiled and placed a finger on lips.

Jack sighed and followed the receptionist who was walking ahead.

"Please wait here, I will some clothes so you can pick your choice," said the receptionist as she went to pick some clothes.

20 minutes later, she came back with quite a number of clothes on a hanger as she pushes it in front of Jack and Ray.

"Here are some clothes for him sir," said the receptionist.

"Go ahead and try them on," said Jack.

"No need, I am buying all of it," said Ray as he scans the clothes with All-Father's eyes and they are fitting for his new body size.

"Are you sure that you want to buy all this?" asked Jack to confirm.

"Yes, I am sure and don't worry about me," said Ray.

Jack turned to the receptionist and told her that they are buying all the clothes she brought from them.

"Ok, follow me back to the front desk where you will pay for the clothes," said the receptionist as she pushed the hanger to the front desk.

At the front desk, the two other receptionist saw them coming back so quickly and feel disappointed as they thought they were no longer buying anything from them, then they spot their third member pushing a hanger of clothes to the front desk.

They were shocked and rushed to help her so that it will easier to move. The receptionist calculate their bill for them.

Jack's phone rings, he checked it and saw that it was his girlfriend.

"Hey babe," said Jack to his girlfriend.

"I am at the city mall with Ray, we came to buy some clothes," said Jack.

"You are also here, we are currently at the Louis Vuitton store, yes the twelfth floor, " said Jack.

"Okay see you soon," said Jack.

"Amelia?" asked Ray.

"Yes, she said that she saw my car downstairs that was why she called to confirm where am I," said Jack.

"Ok, how much is my bill," asked Ray toward the receptionist.

"Your bill is 2500 dollars sir, are you using your card or paying with cash," asked the receptionist.

"I will be using my card," said Ray as he took out his card from his pocket.

Ray paid for the clothes and carry the six bags of clothes to meet Jack who was waiting for his girlfriend by the door.

"Let's wait for her outside," said Ray as he pushes Jack out of the store.

"Come again next time sir," said the receptionist as she bow to them leaving.

"Sure we will," said Ray from outside the store.

10 minutes later, they spot Jack's girlfriend and her friend coming towards them.

"Hey babe, you are done shopping," asked Amelia, who was Jack's girlfriend.

"Yeah we only came to get some clothes," replied Jack.

"Ok let's go," said Amelia as she drags Jack away.

"Oh, Jack come and drop me off at my place," said Ray.

"Ok sure, let's go," said Jack still holding onto his girlfriend who drags him away.

Ray sighed at Amelia because she doesn't like him, she always want to pull Jack away from him.

They arrived at the parking lot and were about to enter the car when Amelia insists that she will sit at the front while Ray and her friend sits at the back.

Ray gives in to her and sat at the back with her friend who was behaving super shy around Ray.

They arrived at Ray's house and Ray comes down from the car and was going inside his house when Jack called him back.

"Hey Ray, we haven't discuss all this," said Jack.

"We will," said Ray with a smile before looking at Amelia who was looking at him with disdain.

"Good, see you at school tomorrow," said Jack as he drives away.

Ray shakes his head at what he saw when he looked at Amelia and went inside his house.

"Hey Bob, are you still around?" asked Ray as the door wasn't locked.

"Oh, Ray you are back already," said Bob from the bedroom.

"Yes,so how long will it take you to done?" asked Ray as he drops the bags of clothes on the couch and went for a drink in the kitchen.

"I am almost done," said Bob as he looked out from the bedroom.

"Oh, so how much is my bill?" asked Ray.

"Firstly, how did you break all this and when did it happened?" asked Bob as he looked at Ray sternly.

"I don't know, it all just happened," said Ray shrugging his shoulder.

"Sigh, you are one peculiar boy," said Bob as he went back to work.

"Yes I am," said Ray as he continues to sip his drink.

Looking at Bob working, Ray remember the rewards he got from yesterday basketball game and open his system.
