WISH FOR THE SYSTEMAllen walked back into the house with a sad face.He did not know when he was going to see Roland again, and he was alone.As he walked, he heard the voice of the system.SYSTEM; Mission AccomplishedReward grantedNew speed Synchronization completed.Allen heard the voice in his head, and he began to wonder how the system had taken so long to give him the feedback after he had completed the mission about five hours ago.He, however, ignored the system and went inside the room thinking about himself and his life now.He now had the whole house and its mysteries to himself despite knowing that it did not belong to him. He was not required to continue selling Roland's food at the subway station, and although he was enjoying it, he knew it was going to be tedious work, and he was also going to be alone. Despite the dark side of what he taught, the bright side of the story appeared to him.He was now all alone, and he could do everything he wanted in his own time. A
A PLEASANT CALLAllen knew something was wrong but could not tell exactly what was wrong at that moment.He waited calmly as he slowly ate his food.Before he could think of anything, one of them stood up from his seat and came to sit directly opposite Allen.Allen was shocked but did not know what to say.He looked up at the man.The man wore a frown and looked weird.He stretched out his hand and silently dropped a knife on the table.Allen’s heart skipped a beat as he saw the knife.“ I have seen you looking at us from there.I have intentionally ignored you but you are not ready to stop.Everybody here is with us, and if you try to do anything stupid, I will not hesitate to slit this knife right here down your throat” The man said softly, but with seriousness while making a strange face.Alen understood the assignment.He kept staring at the man, trying to maintain his composure, but deep down, he was shaking with fear.The system was not yet activated, and from the man's threat,
READY FOR AN IMPRESSIONAfter getting off the call with his new friend, Allen couldn't help but drift into fantasies about Betty. He had been drawn to her from the moment they started talking, and now he found himself wishing she was his girlfriend. He imagined what it would be like to hold her hand and take her on dates.However, from the conversation he had had with her over the phone, it was evident that Betty was from a rich family.She seemed rich, and from how she said that she had a driver, it was obvious her parents were rich.Allen went to take a shower, and after going through social media to entertain himself, he dropped the phone and went off to sleep..************Allen woke up the next morning at 6 am.He quickly set about cleaning the room.Then, after he was done, he had some breakfast.He was now living alone and had to adjust things to his liking.Allen was not used to eating out, so he quickly ordered some groceries.Fortunately for him, the house was en suite and
I COULD USE THAT FOR A WEEK!!Allen looked at the great fence of the restaurant.He looked at his wristwatch and realized he was just five minutes early.“ Right on time” He murmured as he walked towards the big gatesHe saw the 3D inscription on the giant building of the restaurant.“ THE EXECUTIVE GOURMET” Allen smiled and looked at his sides one more time.He walked through the gate and headed for the door to the restaurant.Before he could get to the door, he received a call.Allen looked at the caller and realized it was Betty.He immediately answered the call and placed the phone to his ear.“ Good afternoon Betty” Allen greeted as soon as he placed the phone to his ear.“ Hey. I am inside here and I can see you out there. First row, last table on your left.” Betty said.“ Okay, see you in a minute,” Allen said and hung up the phone.He walked with a smile on his face into the restaurant.The security guard at the gate opened the door for him with a smile, and Allen walked in f
AN EXPENSIVE GIRLBetty looked up and caught Allen staring at him.“ Have you settled on anything?” Betty asked Allen.Allen shook his head in the negative.“ Okay, I think we should settle for a table instead,” Betty said.Allen did not understand what Betty just said, but he acted like he did.Betty turned to the waitress who was waiting for her.“ Give us the second American table here. Everything inclusive” Betty told the waitress.Alen did not know what table, but looking at the second page of the menu, something caught his attention.There was a list of meals compiled together under one category each and a fixed price, with the reading as Table d’hote.Allen looked through it and was surprised. Food there began from a thousand dollars, and what Betty had just requested was a thousand eight hundred dollars.Allen opened his mouth in shock.He slowly closed the menu and gave it back to the waitress who left to prepare their order.“ Excuse me, Betty, but something is not quite rig
SON OF THE SYSTEM, A MYSTERIOUS WOMAN. Allen walked outside and began his journey home.As he walked, he thought about Betty.Betty was a young girl, beautiful and always beaming with smiles.Her communication skills were top notch, and she had an impeccable accent.From Allen's observations, she was very outspoken yet very calm.He could tell from her soft eyes that she was dealing with something silently, especially when she stylishly dismissed the topic about her parents.Allen thought she might have some from a broken home or probably was having problems with her parents.From her demeanour, appearance, lifestyle, and calibre, it was evident her parents were rich, and she was spoiled at a very young age, but still had some morals..Allen noted her way of speech and demeanour.She was just twenty years but acted like a grown woman, which showed that she had gone through some early emotional changes than normal.Allen thought about Betty all the way home.His plans he had planned f
SEE INTO THE FUTURE.Allen walked hurriedly to the shop where Roland usually bought the items for work.Luckily, he had gone there on several occasions alone to purchase the items, and so the attendants knew him.Allen got to the subway and began his work for the day. He had arrived quite earlier than usual.He had a whole lot of work to do that day as he was alone, and he had to finish on time in order to be able to meet the demands of his customers.Working alone today seemed really weird for him and he felt uneasy doing everything by himself; however, he was able to do it all alone.The first night of working alone went pretty well on his side, and by a half past 10pm, he was already done selling off all his stuff, and that was the same time they were used to closing.His usual customers who had come and had not seen Roland had taken turns to inquire. why he was not there that day, and he had repeated his response over and over again. “ He travelled to check on some things.”.Allen
MAN WITH A WEAPONAllen opened his eyes.The man with the handkerchief stood in front of him, and, surprising enough, he was still at the scene.It now occurred to him that he had just had a deja vu.It looked like he had been into the future and back.He looked at the man who sat in the car, trying to engage him“Okay, I am sorry to bother you but we are headed towards the hospital. A friend of ours is injured in the back, could you help us, please? We just need you to direct us to the hospital,” the man said, feigning a smile and trying all he could to seem nice.Allen nodded.“ Oh yes, I know there, but are you sure someone is wounded?” Allen asked the man, trying to act nice.“ In five seconds, watch out for the action of the handkerchief; it has sedatives and is intended to make you sleep.”Allen heard the voice.It was now evident to him that he had been to the future, as everything was playing out perfectly.His only problem now was that, in the end, he had been shot and died,
