"You're so hot." In an empty gym, a male voice rang out and Robin halted his steps.
"You think so?" Robin heard Sofia's voice and he shook. For a moment, he thought he was hearing things but as he walked further, his eyes widened in shock. He walked toward a secluded part of the gym but he couldn't believe what he saw.His girlfriend was in the arms of the famous and rich quarterback stud, Durk from the University's football team. Seeing this, Robin's hand tightened into a fist while his other hand held onto the parcel in his hand, tightly. He was angry and at the same time, he felt hurt deep in his heart.However, that wasn't all. Durk's next words almost caused Robin to vomit a mouthful of blood."Your body is to die for. I wonder why your stupid boyfriend hasn't popped the cherry yet." Robin heard those words and his eyes narrowed, in anger."Don't mind him. You're my lover now and since he's so stupid, he is going to lose me." Sofia said and Robin almost fell to the ground. Coupled with the rage and pain, he couldn't hold up anymore.He saw the couple's almost-naked bodies, entangled on a thin yoga sheet. It was obvious they had sex.Robin felt hurt as all these years he dated Sofia, he had cherished her. He hadn't gone beyond kissing her and now, another man had ravished her body and he was only left to see the aftermath.As his body continued to shake, his eyes dimmed and the parcel in his hand fell to the ground, its contents spilled."Shit!" Robin cussed as he bent and tried to put together the contents. He worked as a delivery staff at the university and he would be doomed if the parcel was damaged."Look who is here. Your stupid boyfriend." Durk's mocking voice rang out and Robin halted his actions. His hands continued to shake though.Robin heard slow footsteps and slowly, he stood upright. His eyes were red as he looked straight at Durk and then glanced at Sofia, still lying on the yoga mat. She had no hint of shame as she showcased her body."Why did you do this, Sofia? I loved you with everything I had. I went out of my way for you." Robin asked, desperate to know why everything happened. He loved Sofia and gave her almost all his earnings but she ended up cheating on him."Oh shut up. You've no right to question me. What did you do anyway?" Sofia clapped back as she stood up to her feet. There was only a thin strapped underwear on her body but she didn't care."You dare to ask me that?" Robin yelled with red eyes. For every moment that passed, his rage increased."Why wouldn't she?" Durk suddenly spoke up. He walked forward and stood before Robin, blocking his view."What did you do? You have no money and nothing to prove your worth. You are just a church rat." He added, mockingly."You have no right to insult me, Durk." Robin said as his lips quivered. He knew he was a church rat as he was poorer than most students. But it was a different thing when it was said to him.Durk laughed mockingly as Robin finished his words. Slowly, Sofia stepped forward with a mocking look in her eyes."You must think you are something. Why wouldn't he insult you? You can't even measure up to Durk's driver!" She yelled at Robin with an angry face."You can't say that to me..." Robin said, with quivering lips. His eyes started to cloud with tears as the pain in his heart was too much to bear. He had never seen his girlfriend this cruel before."Her words are true. You're nothing before me, so get lost. Sofia should be taken care of. But you have no money." Durk said proudly as his hands wound around Sofia's body. Slowly, his hands caressed her and they got tangled in a passionate kiss.Looking at them, Robin wanted to think that he was in a dream but it was a reality. All because he was poor and weak, his lover was snatched and he could do nothing and anger boiled in him.Sofia is his! He still had that reasoning and he thought she was drugged. The Sofia he knew was kind and innocent, not this one."Sofia, stop this!" He yelled as he marched toward the adulterous couple and tried to tear them apart. He was determined to save his girlfriend."Fuck! Just go away. I don't want you!" She yelled."No, he is doing something to you and you should come to your senses!" Robin yelled back."Just go away, you fool, and don't disturb us!" Durk yelled and swiftly, he pushed Robin with force. He flew across the room and landed on the ground. His head bumped on the wall and he passed out.__An hour later, Robin woke up to see that he had been on the bare floor for a long time. Sofia didn't even care to check if he was dead.As he was about to get up, a voice sounded in his head and he stilled.[SYSTEM ACTIVATED][SYSTEM BINDING... PLEASE, WAIT...]20%40%60%80%100%[SYSTEM INSTALLED]Swiftly, a screen only Robin could see appeared before his eyes and he gasped. He thought the voice in his head was him hearing things, but what was this?His eyes stared at the screen, with so much confusion and it read.[Host: Robin Claire[Balance: 1 million dollars[Looks: 5[Body: 5[Squander points: 0[Skills: None]However, Robin couldn't understand anything. He used his hands to swipe toward the screen before his eyes, hoping it would disappear but nothing happened."Fuck! Am I going crazy?" He said out loud, in fear. In the next second, the voice resounded in his head, again.[No, you are not going crazy, Robin Claire. This is a Squandering System. It is a one-on-one system, exclusive to you, the host!][You are required to squander 1 million dollars in three days! Your balance has been connected to your bank accounts and you can pay with whatever method you want!][You get 3 or more squander points when you perform certain tasks! Your points can be used to replenish or reform your body, wits, looks, and skills.][Rule: You are not allowed to exceed three days, or else you will go back to being poorer than the poorest!]Robin froze as soon as he heard those words. Even though the Squandering System was too good to be true, he couldn't let himself become the poorest of the poorest. He had enough of being poor, why would he become poorer?"This has to be a dream!" He whispered, in a low tone as he got up from the floor. However, a sudden dizzy spell hit him and he almost fell back to the floor. "Ahh.." He cried out, in pain as he held onto his head, quickly only to find out there was blood trickling down his head. He could feel his heart skip a beat at the thought that he was losing blood. Suddenly, he heard that strange voice in his head, again. [Don't fret! The Squandering System has got you covered! Perform your tasks and you can use your points to replenish your body! You will become whole!]As soon as Robin heard those words, he couldn't believe it. First, it was about the money and now it was about his body and health. He started to think that this was a prank as he had never heard of such a s
"What's going on here?" The beautiful lady asked and the security guard who had stood at attention cast an irritated glance at Robin. "Good day, Miss Manager. I'm sorry for the disturbance but this poor man here has insisted on going into the VIP hall. We can't let that happen." The security guard said, in one breath. On the other hand, Robin could only watch as he was being described. He felt embarrassed before the beautiful manager and he bowed his head, in shame. "What do you mean he is poor?" The manager asked, in a curious tone as she looked at Robin from head to toe. Her gaze was piercing and she couldn't deny that he looked poor. However, she managed to lock up her thinking and not spill her words, carelessly. "He claims he needs to be attended to but he keeps begging." The guard said, subtly hinting that Robin was begging him for money. "That's not true!" Robin was quick to shout as he couldn't stand being slandered that way. He wondered why the guard was this way. "What
Robin's eyes widened in shock when he looked at himself in the mirror. His skin had turned fresher and he looked fairer than his normal self."Is this a dream?" He asked, himself as he touched his face, slightly. And then he noticed that his hair looked sleeker and when he touched it, it was so soft. He had never even used a hair or skin care product before and now he gets all the care, just by performing tasks. "Are you there? Squandering System." He muttered those words as he was desperate to see what had provided him with all these. Up until this moment, he was surprised that he was now a millionaire! [Yes, I am always here! You have successfully performed today's task and you have used up your points. Ensure to perform the next task to also gain points for your use.] The system said in a robotic voice as a screen was before Robin's eyes. He continued to look at his balance and he couldn't even keep his eyes away from it. "What have you been staring at, Robin?" He heard his roo
"Did you do what I asked?" Robin asked as he sat on a chair, right in his room. He had his old phone in hand as he started to scroll through the several posts on the school's forum. He didn't even need an answer from Mac as he had already gotten an answer to it. "Yes, I did! No one noticed it was me." Mac replied, in an enthusiastic tone. He could see the excited look on Robin's face and he wondered what his friend was up to. "Why did you decide to put yourself under the bus that way? I think you should have waited till the day of the opening!" Mac said as he was greatly concerned about Robin. On the other hand, Robin looked at the comment left by Mac on the post that had been going viral on the school forum. He had earlier ordered Mac to disclose his identity of being the boss using an anonymous account."You will find out, soon." Robin replied, with a mysterious look on his face. This move of his was just to fish out a few people and also to spread the news so wide."What do you
"It's Durk's opening! Let's go!" The students shouted in delight as they flocked into the school grounds toward where Durk's opening was stationed. He had declared that he would set up his own logistics company as well and he did so. He had cars and buses parked in a strategic location inside the school. He had pulled strings, just to be able to stay right inside the school. "Ahh!! Can you see him over there? He looks so handsome!" One of the female students screamed in delight as they watched Durk stand on the grand stage alongside Sofia who followed him about. The students were going crazy over him and at the same time, speculating what relationship he had with Sofia now."Is that not the school's church rat's ex-girlfriend? Is she with Durk now?" One of the students asked as they started to wave placards all about. "Of course! She is! She wouldn't want to support her wretched ex-boyfriend after all." Another student replied, with a snort. Their envious eyes were on Sofia who ha
"Shit!" Durk yelled, in anger as he marched into the extravagant tent he had created for his opening. He felt like his head was going to burst and his eyes were red. He looked all around and he could see no one. Everyone had left and with his phone in hand, he replayed the video going viral on the school's forum."Ahhh!!" He yelled, in anger as he punched the wall, continuously. Soon, his hand started to bleed but then he did not stop. His anger only increased by multiple folds. "I'm going to kill you, Robin! I'm going to kill you!" He let out, through gritted teeth as he scrolled through his phone, quickly. He wanted to do something. Something that would shake everyone and take Robin out. Never in his life had he expected that things would turn out this way! Never!He thought he had everything under control and he was going to win over Robin. He thought that he was going to be the school's most loved person but everything turned out to be for naught. "I can't take this!" He said a
Robin stood up to his feet, in surprise, seeing the way Sofia knelt at his feet. It wasn't the most unexpected situation for him but then he wanted to know why she was here."Why are you here?" He asked, in a cold tone as he looked down at her with a cold expression. He had not seen her since the day she left him to die, at the gym. No matter what he goes through, he will never forget the humiliation he felt right before Durk all because he loved a woman."I want you back, Robin. You are the only one I love." She let out, in a low tone as she looked up at me and the whole class gasped again. She didn't care if they looked at her, with judging eyes, she had to do what she had to do. "Look at her, she is so shameless." One of the students said as they pointed accusing fingers at Sofia. "She bashed Robin right on the school's forum and now, she is here to beg him? How slutty could she be? Has Durk dumped her and now she is here to receive some cash from Robin?" Another student said and
"Shit!" Robin cussed as he looked all around the class and then at Sofia who had gone down on her knees. The beautiful lady who had been fighting over him alongside Sofia looked at him with so much hope. At this point, he didn't know whether he should throw away his dignity for the System's sake or just save his face by refusing his ex-girlfriend."Robin..." He heard Mac call out. However, the system's voice rang out in his head. [10, 9, 8...]Time was almost up and at the last minute, he couldn't fathom the thought of being poor again. He was going to get disgraced for a moment for the greater good. "Sofia, come here. I must have been blind to reject you, my love." Robin said and everywhere froze. No one expected him to say those flowery words. It was so unlike the recent cold Robin. "Are you out of your mind, Robin? She is obviously deceiving you!" The beautiful lady from earlier screamed, in anger as she had been put down by Robin's decision. She felt ashamed for fighting over h
