《rebirth tycoon》Old loans and new beginnings
Advertisement
It was almost time for the flight to touch down. We exchanged numbers and she asked me to come hangout with her on the weekend as all her friends had gone away for college. Eventually, we went our ways.
My mom had come to pick me up at the airport in the ford escort we had at our home, it was in very bad condition. I decided I need to make money quickly since the money game could only provide me with 1440$/day that about 500,000$/year which was less than what rich people earned here in the US. I wanted to part of the 1% of the top 1%. the rich who ruled the world. My father had worked in a bank before the crash and lost his job last year. It has been tough since that time. Plus my college fees and loans, everything added up together, I feel like my parents grew older in this one year.
Since, my dad didn't have a job, he borrowed some money from our relatives and has opened a car servicing center. It was a low paying business but since my dad's brother did this, at least he had some experience going in.
my mom drove up us to the shop. I saw my dad and instantly hugged him. I was so happy seeing him again.
My father said - "Kid, you have grown up, I have decided to sell the old farmland to pay this shop loan and get you a car as well. I don't think you will get a girlfriend without a car" He laughs after saying this.
I didn't agree, I will eventually gets lots of money. So, I try to tell him not to do it.
"Dad, there is no need to do it. I have worked these last 4 months part time and invested it. I have some money with me. You shouldn't sell our old land. It had so many memories attached with us."

I transfer him $10000 at the same time. He is shocked to see 10 grand in his account. He instantly asks me if I am doing something illegal. I assure him that this was just me getting returns in the stock market. He still doubts me but finally accepts it since there isn't much he can do and it is still better than selling our farmland
Dad Replies "Oh, When did your kid grow up, hey, Emma, Is it even Will?" he taunts me. My mom tells him to stop joking around and close the shop and get ready for the family meal.
I further add "Dad, you don't even have to worry about my tuition loans as soon I will be able to pay for it." My Dad is really happy after hearing it. He believes that whatever it is, his son won't do anything illegal just for money.
They eventually went to their farmhouse. Will feels little nostalgic as it has been years, he came here since his father sold the house last time to pay the shop loans and we moved to small rented apartment in the city. He goes to his rooms and sighs. "finally the house is safe for sometime. Thank you Game." Will knows that without the game, he can't stop this sale as he won't have cash instantly.
The next day, Will woke up for breakfast. After having it, he looked at the money game as realized that the bonus multiplier effect is on. He saw that he will get about 7000$ everyday for the holidays. Immediately, he decided to take his parents out for lunch. They went to a famous French restaurant and ordered some dishes. When Will paid the bill, Both his father and mother had tears in their eyes. Which parent doesn't want their child to be successful. Will decided this life he had to make his parents proud.

When they went home, his parents were thinking, Will grew up a lot in these last 4 months., not only can he earn money, he seems more confident and less naive. They slept happily that night, maybe a little more than you would expect of old parents. Lets just say, the walls in their house weren't soundproof and Will didn't sleep well that night.
The next day, he heard his mother bragging to the relatives on the phone about how Will had made money in stocks. Then she saw standing behind her, she immediately laughed it off. Finally, Emma, will's mom realized that Will looked better than before, no acne on his face. Will can bet his life his life he heard his mother murmuring "Did he get handsome than before, maybe it is because of my genes."
Will didn't know what to say after this.
Finally, Will decided to call Lina to hangout since he was bored at home. They decided to meet up at the local shopping square which had different joints to eat as well. Will wore some expensive clothes, grabbed a cab and reached the square. After waiting for 15 minutes, He saw Lina and he couldn't close this mouth, you see Lina was epitome of hotness, long black hair, sharp cuts on the face, hourglass figure and those long legs could only be described as gateway to heavens. He could tell that she regularly went to the gym as it was impossible to maintain such figure without it. Finally She came and smiled.
"Sorry, I hope you didn't wait for long." said Lina.
"No, I just arrived." I replied. Its always important not to nag while picking up girls.
"Let's go and walk around before we decide what to do" I suggested.
Lina nodded and we walked around the area. Minneapolis has Mississippi river passing through it so the area is really picturesque. Lina took out her mobile phone and clicked a few selfies. She even included Will in them. The people who saw them could not be any more jealous of both of them. Lina directly uploaded the picture onto Facebook.
It was at this time, Lina said - "Hey, how did your face get so smooth. I can't help but be jealous."
Will thought about the dollars he had spent to further upgrade his looks with beauty pills from the game. He felt the investment was finally showing results.
Will replied - "Just better sleep and no college stress has this effect."
Lina smirked and didn't believe him.
Will - "Lets go shopping" . It was the only move he could pull right now as he did not know what to do next.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive. Please catch me, because if you don't, I'll shatter. I can't grab on anymore, I can't keep fighting. It's going to swallow me up. My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month. My schedule is very irregular, and I'm working on that, but I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that this book stays out there. I'm not ending it until it's done.
