Gabe bought a cot and placed it in the hall. However, after lying down on it, he felt uncomfortable. Sleeping on the floor seemed more comfortable to him.So, he folded the bed and put it on the side.“Why did you buy a bed if you're not going to use it?” Nicole asked. She looked different today because she had taken a bath, oiled and combed her own hair. She looked beautiful.“I will use it, but right now, I feel more comfortable sleeping on the ground. I don’t even need a pillow to sleep,” he proudly said, but that only made his aunt feel sad.Seeing her make a sad face, Gabe said, “Aunt, you look gorgeous today. Can I kiss you?”“G-Gorgeous? Me?” Nicole was surprised. She didn’t believe it. How could someone in her late fifties be beautiful, she thought, but then Gabe planted a long kiss on her cheek. It almost brought a tear to her eyes.“Gabe, if someone like me appears gorgeous to you, that means… you should really get a wife,” she teased him.“A-Aunt!” Gabe’s face blushed like

After Mia left, Gabe sat in the house with a dull expression.A part of him wanted to confess his feelings for her, but another part of him told him that if she had the least bit of romantic feelings toward him, she would have at least hugged him after he fought his four friends.Gabe could see care in her eyes, but he didn’t see any sort of romantic feelings. Why would she feel that way about someone who was cross-eyed? This was the reality he had to live with all his life.Nothing changed in this aspect even though he had acquired a system.He had already asked Systa if it was possible to cure his cross-eyes, but the system told him it wasn’t possible for any system to cure something a person was born with. Because he was 32 years old, it wouldn’t be possible to make his eyes right with surgery, either. Meaning, he would need to live with his cross-eyes for the rest of his life.He stayed down until Nicole came home.And he acted normal.“Gabe, I brought you fresh coconut water,” sh

Gabe came home at eight o’clock in the night and showed his aunt all the things he bought, from mobile to kitchen utensils, buckets, soap, and whatnot.“You don’t have to buy all these things, Gabe. Focus on saving the money,” she advised.“I will. I will,” he assured, giggling happily. Buying all these things for his aunt who could now use them made him really happy.“By the way…” she took out a small paper slip and gave it to him. On it was a phone number.“This…” he looked at her in shock. “Don’t tell me…”“Yes,” Nicole smiled and nodded. “If you’re uncomfortable with talking to her face-to-face, then you can start conversing with her on mobile. Once you both get closer, I’m sure you’ll feel more comfortable talking in front of her.”“Aunt… you’re my savior!” Gabe hugged and kissed her on both the cheeks. “Even if I give you the world, it would be too little!”“Haha,” Nicole chuckled quite a bit. “You should use your praising skills on Mia. It will make things easier for you.”“Wil

Gabe came home.What he didn’t know was that Venkat followed him in his car from a distance. “He still lives in that old, shitty house, and he says he earns at least 20,000 dollars per month? He’s definitely lying.”“But this company card seems real,” Nora was looking at the visiting card that Gabe had given them. It had his name, company, address and everything in it except his phone number because he didn’t buy a mobile by the time this card was made.“It’s not that difficult to make cards like these,” Venkat blurted. He had short, curly hair which he hated. He also envied Gabe for his cool, soft, and straight hair, but now, he could see that Gabe’s hair was thinning down, and it made him happy inside because his hair was still dense. However, when Gabe said that he earned at least 240,000 dollars per year, his heart shook. “If I pay ten dollars in a store, they’ll print cards like these.”“You think so?” Nora sort of believed Venkat’s words. After all, if Gabe really was earning as

People’s eyes were glued to the dark olive sports car with state-of-the-art mechanical technology and craftsmanship of unprecedented prestige and quality. This V-10 beast with its streamlined lines looked like it could cut through the air and tame the road, making everyone want to not just see it but touch it and ride it down the smoothest lane in the world. And Gabe of all people stepped out of such a dreamy vehicle whose engine sounds created sensations in the bodies of men and women alike. However, Gabe was dressed in a simple T-shirt and a three-fourth. He did not look like he owned a high-end sports car. How could this plain-looking young man own such a sculptured and sensual car? Not possible. Definitely not possible was what some thought, while some others wondered if it was really his car or not. Those who didn’t know him however didn’t have such exaggerated reactions. As people began to murmur behind Venkat’s back, saying that the car would be worth almost half as much as
