《I Really Am An Internet Celebrity!》Chapter 6: ‘Joe’
Advertisement
2 weeks has passed since he got the game ‘Shoot Em’ Up!’. His Playmation has arrived as well.. He has been playing the game and has been tweeting about it time to time criticizing and critiquing it on his posts. He isn’t a “professional critique” and he also doesn’t know why they even exist because in his opinion, people take their opinions way too seriously and only people with actual brain cells will know that the only way for someone to know fully about a game is to actually play it yourself.
Vermillon, more or less, has been completely familiar with twitter, he has been on it almost everyday and he has been talking with Lewd and they became close enough to make Vermillion consider Lewd a friend. Maybe some people will say that ‘friends on the internet are just fake friends and in real life friends are more genuine and having internet friends is just a waste of time’ which Vermillion disagrees with after talking with Lewd.
“First of all, in real life friends lie to you, manipulate you and even sometimes just completely betray you.” Vermillion thought as an attack to that statement. Vermillion obviously knows that the quote doesn’t apply to everybody but he still thinks in real life friends are more untrustworthy than internet ones. He thinks internet friends don’t have a reason to lie and manipulate you. He thinks it is also troublesome and ‘takes away energy’ so he trusts Lewd because he has been with him from the start.
“Goddamn it, the light bulb went out again, this house is cheap!” he said as his light bulb went up. Interestingly, the house that Vermillion lives in right now is his parents house. He used to live in this house with his parents and his uncle. His uncle, like any other adult, moved out to get married and Vermillion, as the result of having no contact with him, forgot what happened to him. Not like his uncle disappeared or anything. It’s just he didn’t care because his uncle was never there for him and Vermillion knows that as an adult you have way more things to deal with and you are more busy with work and paying bills or looking after some young adult who can more or less live by himself.

But he never knew why his uncle never visited even in holidays like Christmas and Easter. However, Vermillion isn’t religious but he celebrates these events like any other normal person. In times like those, families come together to celebrate and have a good time, drink and chit chat but the last time that happened with his family was years ago when his parents were still alive. Vermillon knows the number of his uncle and was planning to give him a visit because what if his uncle hates him? Vermillion obviously doesn’t want to go to his uncle’s house and just get kicked out because that would suck ass.
He decided he is going to his uncle’s house today. Despite the opinions and thoughts you maybe having the reason he is decided that is not for the reason you are thinking. The reason he is going to his uncle’s house is to get some cash. Yes, he may have enough to live his whole life in comfort as his parents sold the family farm when they we’re about to die for Vermillion to live in comfort all his live. He was extremely grateful to his parents that raised him and cared for him, showed him love till the very end and he will certainly never forget their love to him for his entire life. He certainly doesn’t want to munch off his parents money all his life so he is going to munch off his uncle’s money a bit. He knows that sounds a little scummy but it’s the only thing he can think of right now. He also thought of working but he isn’t confident yet that he’ll get hired or even have the experience to. He thinks that he is only going to hold back his co-workers.
He prepared his clothes, slicked his hair back and some old shoes. “Alright I think I’m ready to go! Hopefully I don’t get kicked out. I also want to meet my uncle’s wife.” he said as he looked forward to going to his uncle’s house. ”AH shit! The sun is scorching hot today..Well, to be fair, I haven’t gone out in months! My eyes are kind of blurry too. I think I’m just gonna wear shades. It will make me look cool as well! Hehe.”. After going inside and picking up his shades that he never uses often, he went outside and started walking to his uncle's house. He lives in the United Kingdom at a village called Yattendon. It’s a fairly nice place. It is a modest and really good place to live in. Greenery dominates the place, much to Vermillion’s love for flowers and greenery so he really likes the village. “It’s not that heavily populated but just enough for it to be called a village but it never really got much attention and crimes and robberies are as rare as easy pussy.” he describes.

“Sigh...Finally, I’m here. My stamina is just atrocious” he remarked. The house was dimly lit and it seemed like it was deserted for years. Vermillion got curious and cautious. “Huh? Maybe he isn’t home.” he thought. However, as he got near the house, he heard a faint sound. He went closer to the house and walked in front of the door. He pushed it lightly and what he saw made him jump back “Oh..oh my god!” he screamed as he covered his mouth with both his hands while he was trembling. “w-what is this…?” he silently asked. He saw the floor was filled with broken bottles of alcohol and cigarettes, desks that were broken and the kitchen was filled with broken glass and dishes. The house wasn’t that big but just enough for 4 people to live in comfort in. He heard a crying noise coming from inside.
“I-i can’t..do this anymore..” someone said. “i-i want to be happy again..heh that’s just a pipe dream” someone said again. There was a crashing sound of glass breaking and he heard the sound of something getting louder and louder. “I-I’M GONNA DO IT! Heh not like ANYONE is listening anyways..” Vermillion heard the utter. Vermillion then heard sounds of footsteps and glass. “I can..barely walk now..how many bottles have I drank to forget it..my older brother and his wife died of old age..and I’m still here living..I should of died instead of them..I could of, at least, taken care of their son..my nephew..” Vermillion heard that followed by the sound of laughter and crying. Vermillion then said while trembling.
“U-uncle joe?...UNCLE JOE!”
