Everyone there was surprised by the lecturer's arrival. The fight between Brian and Dakota ended. Moreover, the lecturer is indeed known as a scary lecturer after the Proker lecturer.The students who were there began to whisper in the silent atmosphere full of shock. "Oh my gosh. They are in big trouble now. Mr. Godart will not hesitate to suspend them."Several people nodded in agreement. "Just watch, one of them will get that punishment."Godart approached them with a sharp gaze. The man with a thick, half-grown moustache was girded at the waist with several files in hand. "How dare you fight on campus. What do you want to be? Rogue students with no future!"Dakota and Brian were silent. They all knew how sharp Godart's words were. His thin lips, covered by a thick mustache, were so smooth in saying such harsh words that even some lecturers and teaching assistants had received harsh insinuations that pierced the heart when heard by everyone on campus, because just like Proker who w
Dakota opened his eyes, a frown on his face as he felt the pain in his head. He tried to get up and sat on the edge of his bed. He thought maybe his head was hurting from the effects of the accident he had a month ago. But he did not know it was terrible at all. "I won't complain about the pain too much because, of course, the current situation is better; the accident changed my life for the better," Dakota muttered under her breath.He walked up from his bed and started to get ready. Dakota's schedule today was to earn money. It sounded simple, as if he just needed to look for it on the streets and collect it, but this time, he would make money simply but with a bit of fun. Dakota will use his abilities to make the money he wants.His destination is the Silver Bar. A famous betting parlour in his city, where people would try to guess the numbers from various guessing games or think who would win from the two players fighting in the arena.The place was unfamiliar, but he could learn
Dakota's smile spread across his face. He felt a little satisfied with successfully registering after the series of registration requirements he had fulfilled. He then looked for the most suitable place on the spectator podium; he chose his seat enthusiastically because he didn't want to get a view from an unsuitable distance. In this match, he tried to get a good position that could show the side of the arena clearly."Let's see," Dakota exclaimed softly as he gazed at the arena featuring his two matches.Before the game started, the visible commentator introduced the two players to the arena. To the west stood the fighter named Mike, while to the east stood the Jackson player. The two of them stare at each other intensely; from the look in their eyes, they seem to be cursing at each other until the atmosphere between them looks very intense.After watching, Dakota also felt an adrenaline rush, was a little less satisfied, and a little anxious about Mike's posture, which he thought w
"Not this one." Dakota shook his head, his eyes immediately turning to the other rows. "This isn't it either."Dakota stood before the self-service counter, his eyes busy staring at the row of sweepstakes in vouchers near the cash register. Since morning, he had been going to the nearest convenience store to where he lived to find the lottery numbers that would win this month. His eyesight had already helped him find the serial number of the lottery that would come out, he had made sure his prediction was getting better. That's why he was so excited. But since earlier, he still hadn't found the lottery voucher he was looking for."Hey, how long are you going to look at it?" The man lined up behind him and reprimanded Dakota.Dakota glanced back momentarily, seeing that the queue behind him contained only a man and a woman. "In a minute," he replied, smiling faintly at them.The man snorted in annoyance. "You've been standing there doing nothing. You think we have enough time to wait f
"Please give me this one." Dakota pointed at the Voucher he wanted to buy more specifically. He saw that there were only a few vouchers left, and he was relieved that she didn't come too late.But feeling relieved, his heart was beating a little fast as he realized that if she didn't find the supermarket because he noticed the boy running away, then he wouldn't find the supermarket either and lost the chance to win the lottery.The woman behind the counter just looked at the box after Dakota pointed it out. He didn't pay much attention. And sure enough, he took the coupon voucher carelessly. It made Dakota look at her with widened eyes.Dakota rejected the Voucher that the woman took out of the box. "Not that one, but this one!" His voice raised, his finger pointed at the wall of the transparent box, then tapped it repeatedly on the side where the Voucher he wanted to put.The woman frowned. She looked at Dakota strangely. "It's all the same. There's no difference." The woman replied
"We're going to start calling out the winning numbers, so viewers at this time make sure you pay attention to the numbers of your gift vouchers." The voice of the female host on the broadcast announcing the winning numbers of the lucky draw vouchers could be heard from behind the television in the living room of Dakota's house.Dakota immediately ran, he took the box where he kept his Voucher. He opened the wooden box and placed it on the table in front of the television while his eyes stared intently at the television screen. "Ah... it feels thrilling even though I already know the final result." He placed his hands on his chest."First number, nine." The woman started naming them, and Dakota scanned the numbers on his Voucher sheet. "Then, seven, eight, seven, five, one and three, nine and the last number." The woman hangs up her words, and she does it on purpose. A typical TV station show to keep the audience curious. "Two."Dakota again confirmed his hearing by looking at the tele
"You should have remembered our past!" Ghea exclaimed loudly as she saw Dakota trying to leave her. But Dakota kept walking away until Ghea followed her. "I'm an important part of the past for you, though."Dakota frowned at the word 'important' that Ghea said while he was the one who turned their situation into a mess. In the past, Ghea might have been an important figure to him that he didn't want to hurt. But now, Dakota could only remember the betrayal that Ghea gave her.He only remembers the pain she gave him at the end of their relationship. If he tries to recall correctly, he was also quite tormented while their relationship was going on. But because of his love, Dakota endured his pain. He ignored what Ghea did to her during their time together."Even though I made the mistake of cheating on you, during the time we spent together, I was once your happiness. I did good things for you. I just want to ask you for a favor." Ghea, who was tired of keeping up with him pace, walked
"Even this time, I'm being treated by you again." Anna pursed her small lips in front of Dakota, who smiled at her sweet behavior. "I feel uncomfortable."Dakota exchanged his plate with the steak he had cut on Anna's plate. His gesture of showing concern naturally made Anna observe his and smile slightly.They were currently having lunch together at a fancy restaurant in the city center. Dakota chose that place because he had previously researched restaurants with good reviews to take Anna there. He did it on purpose because he was trying to match Anna's taste. Dakota was worried that the woman would feel uncomfortable or find the food served to her not suitable for her tongue.But when he saw that Anna seemed to enjoy their lunch, Dakota was relieved. "You don't have to think about it, because I feel good doing it for you." Dakota raised his gaze to look at Anna. "Haven't you been helping me a lot too?""Never mind, you helped me a lot too." Anna winked at Dakota and smiled cheerful
