New Origins Online
Volume 1 – The Town of Beginning, Démarrer.
Ch 2 – Where am I? And I Hate Strangers.
After Alshaira flicked her fingers, nim's consciousness was pulled in. It was done in an instant so she has no way to prepare for it. It took her a minute before her consciousness was completely pulled in and her soul to settle-in on a new vessel.
She then opened her eyes.
‘Where am I?’ She asked.
It took a minute before nim remembers what had been transpired. It is a bit hazy but she remember being sent off by Alshaira.
In front of her is the roof that has carvings, it has a lot of people on it. There are two big carvings that stand out, one is Alshaira holding the world and the other one is a man that has bat wings while holding a sword, nim knows that he is Astaroth.
She then sits up to get a better view.
There are two giant pillars that are supporting the roof. At the top side of the two walls at my left and right has small windows that are lined. Each one of them projects a light with the images that had been carved at their glass, most of those projected image are persons. And in front of me is a big doorway which shines so brightly because of the sun.
She look at her back only to see a lot of stone beds that were arranged accordingly. Some of them contain people. Some of these people are still sleeping while the other are already awake but still looking around like nim. Right now, she is sitting at one of the stone beds.
‘This is…a temple?’ She asked herself.
Due to the interior designs, it some gives off a temple like feelings.
She then tried to recall the name of the town she was sent to by Alshaira. Alshaira mentioned the name beforehand. After a little bit of recall, she was able to remember the town’s name, Démarrer.
After nim finish checking her surroundings, she look at her two hands. She wants to confirm her new body which was given to her. It is almost real but her body is not really hers, It is made by the computer for her to be able to host this body and live in this game. She first moved her fingers, twisted her hand and then clasped her two hands. There are other movements she has done and the result is satisfying. She is now able confirm that it is her new body.
'It feels weird that it is real since it is not my real body. But it is good enough that I can play as the REAL character.' she then clenches her fist.
nim felt excited. She is now in her game character. She can now feel what she could not feel when she plays the RPG games. She can now have the adventure herself. This is almost like a dream come true. So, she did a lot of random movements to try out her new body. Although, it got embarrassing afterwards because of the people looking at her so she stop with red cheeks.
Due to her enthusiastic movements, her hair slides down. Its color is black, not pink which is her natural hair. She remembers her request to the goddess to make her look normal since she hate to have people looking at her. So she then looks around to find a mirror which she finds one at her back. It is made so that players can look at it after their avatar creation. But, it is now occupied by two woman.

‘They should have added more mirrors. I will complain this to dad later.’
nim then went closer and sits down at one of the stone beds while waiting for her turn.
After a few more minutes, they were still there looking at the mirror. They were doing a lot of poses while being concerned. One of them complain a lot.
These irritates nim because she is waiting for too long. And she also finds their poses to be ridiculous. They don't have to be that much concerned since she already find them beautiful in her opinion.
'I hate waiting.' but still waited.
After a few more seconds, the two women left the mirror. Nim can now use the mirror so she immediately left her sit and went to the mirror.
“Cute… I’m jealous,” says by one of the women. This made nim stop at where she is standing. nim heard her when she passed through them. She wonders why would she be jealous to her companion. They look very alike almost like a sibling. She could not understand it. Women are really hard to understand for nim even though she is a woman also. But this is all a misunderstanding for nim.
She goes back to look at her face.
Her hair is now black. Her face still looks like herself in real life. Small head with a face that is a bit pale white. Her eyes is still black but it compliments well with her black hair. And her lips is a bit pinkish. This is her face in the real world but only with a bit mature which is unlikely to her childish body. Just like how she requested the goddess, she now looks normal but, there is a problem, her chest is still flat. She had believed that having a breast is the normal one. This is why she only said to make it normal.
“I hate you” she complained to Alshaira.
There are other people who look at her for suddenly cursing but they then mind their own businesses.
'No, having a small might be good. Men are animals that will look at the woman's body. There is a time while at school walking at the corridor I saw the men with red cheeks to be looking at my classmate that has big breast. Ugh....somehow I am now glad that it is small' Thinking about it made her shiver. She hated her flat chest but she also hates attention.
She then notices that she is wearing a brown shirt, brown short and brown shoes. These are probably novice equipments made for the beginners. Somehow, they expose the skins of nim. She hates exposing her skin which is why she prefers longer skirt. The producers have wanted to attract more attention by putting styles to the dresses. She is the only one who hated it. She now has another issue to complain.
“I told you to retreat not to dive! We could have lived!” A man shouted with anger.
“Che, You are just a chicken! If you had just fought…” The blonde haired elf yelled also.
“I’m an archer! Not a freaking swordsman!”
“You had just learned a dagger handling! Did you not!?”
“That is for self-defense!”
And they kept on arguing with each other. They have both probably died and now, they are blaming with each other. No matter how one hears it, the swordsman guy is at wrong there. He is just shaming his self.
'I hate noise.'
Base from their conversation earlier and where nim have spawned. She deduced that this is the starting and respawn point. Sort of like a church in some games. Some games has a respawn points where it can be found from the save point or the church.

‘’. I invoke the special word that I read from the booklet. It allows me to see my status. I still need to check my character.
~Ping~

Like what is written in the booklet, humans really do have a balance stats. Right now, nim’s job is still Novice but once she hits lvl 10 she can then change job. It was made like that so that people can have more time to decide before picking the job they want. She have planned to take the solo-type avatar so she will stick to the swordsman.
nim could not endure the noise from the two men so she leaves.
She is nearing the doorway when she feels like seeing a scene the same in some movies she watched. The doorway projects a very blinding light, it is really bright but also looks pretty.
After nim stands beside the doorway, she saw a very mesmerizing view. This is what medieval Europe looked like. The pathways and houses are covered with bricks. The bell tower stands at her right. And a capitol can be seen far to her left. There are a lot of people walking at the pathways made of bricks. The town is also surrounded by very high walls.
-This is the game world where she will play in.
She then breathes in the fresh air and then exhaled it. Even though it is only a game, she can still feel the freshness of the air. She almost mistook it as reality.
'Is this the game world I will play? It is somehow doubtful to attach the words game and play.'
She then decided to take a walk and lifted her foot. But, she then realized that she don’t know this place. She is completely unfamiliar. Looking at her left and right did not help her because they still look the same.
She considered asking someone but then rejected it. She hates asking and what’s more talking with strangers. But she really don’t know where to go.
She then randomly pick the path at her right. She doesn’t know where it will head at but standing at the doorway for a long time will attract attention. She then prayed that she won’t get lost.
The more she walk around, the more she is mesmerized. The street is full of street performers. A merman bard singing a lullaby. The people watch him sing while asking for an encore. two female plane walkers doing a street performance. They would jump and run which they are almost like performing dance and acrobatics. But what made it special are them throwing knives at each other while catching the flying knives to re-throw them.
It’s dangerous but they seem to enjoy it.
She then heard a lot of cheers and jeers. She hates noise but she is curios. She then went to check the reason for their noise. two people are having a face off, A draconican and a half-giant. There’s a male human standing between them.
He then raises his hand. Everyone went silent.
'Somehow, the air felt so heavy and tense.'
“Start!” while he raised down his hand.
Two swords began clashing at each other. The cheers began to go wild. Sparks are starting to fly everywhere every time the two swords clashing at each other. This is probably duel.
nim could not bear the noise so she left.
There were also street artists. Like a human sculptor sculpting at unbelievable speed. It is forming it into a rose. A fox warbeast painting a human face with her tail while dancing gracefully. And a plane walker cooking with such cuteness. The food’s aroma is being carried by the wind. nim felt hungry afterwards.
Everything is fun. It would have been good to keep on walking if only she is not called by a stranger. This surprises her. She does not know what to do. She is at her father’s back whenever she went out before but now, She is all alone in a busy street.
“Hey ya, am calling ya,” says a dwarf. His voice is so rough.
She hates talking to strangers so she feels like running away. But she is at a crowdy area. It would feel weird if a woman runs away from a man. It will definitely call attention which she hates also. So, she braced herself instead and talked to him.
“What is it?” She asks.
“Ar ya new here?”
“I…....am?” not sure if she should answer it.
“Wel, ya du luk like a newbi. Seein ya goin to da geitwey but kerry no weapon tells me dat ya are a newbi. To equip aytems, ya have ta carry dem.”
“Headin out to da gate without any weapons is denjahrus. So, how about it? Wanna buy a weapon?” He speaks like a businessman.
nim then looks around her. Only she is not carrying a weapon. If she is right now going straight to the gate then it will really be a problem for her since she carries no weapon after all.
“Don’t jast stand der, missy. Ar ya goin to buy or wat?” felt irritated that nim is silent.
“Ah… what weapons do you sell?” flustered.
“Sigh*… Dis ar da wepons I sell” Irritated but he had just gained a customer so he just let it go.
"........They don't look cheap" says nim as she look at the well made weapons.
"Of corse dey are not chiip since dey ar' my best made wepon. If I want ta get customers den I hav to giv a good first impression"
“Cam on in, da chiiper ones are here.” He enters his shop while prompting nim to do also.
nim felt unsafe if she enters a stranger’s shop. She does not know what is waiting for her. But it is also bad to just leave him be. She is confused as to what to do.
“Wat ar ya waiting for?” He is now more irritated.
“…Coming…”
Unsure but still went inside.
It is hot inside. His shop is a little bit dark but the fire produces enough light to see. There were a lot of weapons hanging, sitting at a weapon rack or just displayed at the wall. Each racks holds a different types of weapon.
“Now then, wat kind of weapon do ya want?” He asked.
“Any cheap weapons”
“Well, ya ar just starting so geting a chiip weapon is a gud decision”
“But buying a chiip weapons is *tsk *tsk *tsk nah gud” while waving his hand.
This confuses nim. She ponders for a little bit.
“Ya hav a gud confused face der, missy” this irritates nim.
“Wel, evry wepons has its own durability”’
And then he explains.
“Durability is the amount a weapon can sustain hits. So every time you swing, thrust or block with your sword, its durability decreases by one. A bad execution decreases it by 3 instead. There are also spells or effects that heavily decreases a durability.”
“The weapon’s ATK also decreases depending on your weapon’s remaining durability.”
“Once it reaches 0, your weapon breaks. Weapons with rank C and below cannot be salvaged. But B to S rank weapon can be repaired with proper materials.”
This is explained by the guidebook. But his explanation is way better than the guidebook. Additional info, Weapons are ranked from F-A and lastly S as the Highest.
“What I want to say here is, you should buy better weapons. Cheap weapons will let you regularly visit a blacksmith for a repair which is not economically good. You will also have a better ATK so grinding lvl is easier.”
“I have some rank D weapons here, although. Swords ar always in demand for new characters so I have none of them for now”
“Not rank C?”
“Ar ya an Idiot? You will still change yar wepon by the time ya hav enaf Gold or materials. Anything more dan dat is a complete waste of money missy”
nim is now starting to hate him. It is for the first time that someone calls her idiot.
“Gahahahaha, yar facial ekspresyons ar really something.” He teases nim again.
'I really hate you' But still went on with the business.
“Your daggers… let me see”
“Oke, weyt for mi, missy.”
~Rumble~
~Rumble~
“Hmmm? I am syar I placed dem somewhere hir…”
nim is already at her limit but was only cooling herself down. She always have issues from her face due to it being almost like a child's face but it is for the first time someone teased her face.
“Ah, found it. Chek it if dis is the weapon ya need“ then he hand it over to nim.
nim receives the dagger and then unsheathed it.

Iron Dagger ( D ).
A dagger made of Iron. It is a weapon with a lot of usage. From slashing, stabing and killing to cooking and sculpting. It can also be used to pick locks.
1 Handed Weapon.
Quality: ok ( +3 ATK )
ATK: +6 (+3)
Durability: 200 / 200.
She doesn't see any anomalies so it is okay.
“Is it wid'in yar interest?” asks the dwarf which I confirm by nodding.
“Oke, Da daggah and the scabbard plus da belt will cost ya 200 G”
“Deal”
“Alright, ”
“……….”
“Ya hav to say ‘System trade’ to be able ta buy”
“…”
~Ping~

Do you want to trade your ‘200x G
For ‘1x Iron Dagger(poor)’, ‘1x scabbard’ and ‘1x fur belt’?
[Yes] [No]
Trade successful.
You have recieved ‘1x Iron Dagger’, ‘1x scabbard’, ‘1x fur belt’
She reads the contents carefully before accepting it. She does not want to repeat her misfortunes.
“Oke, as an advice from Da senior, ya can izily kill lvl 1 mobs but it gets hardah to farm exp evri time ya level up. Ya will nid a bettah wepons to fight strongah monstah to farm bettah exp”
“I will keep that in mind.”
I then went outside to resume my walk.
“Wait, ya will need some potion when ya venture out. Enter the first alley ya will meet”
“Will do so”
I was about to start walking when he called out again.
“If ya will nid some item enchantment, upgrades or new wepon ya can call Brutos anytime.” pointing himself with his thumb.
“The name’s nim”
‘He is not a bad guy’ is what nim thought but she still hates him nonetheless. She then resumes her walk and invoked her for the last time.

~Clang~
He keeps hammering. Even though It is hot he keeps hammering.
~Clang~
~Clang~
He wiped of his sweat before resuming his work.
~Clang~
~Clang~
~Clang~
After he finish molding the sword, he then put the it in the bucket full of water.
Steam started to rise. This cools down the weapon. He then went outside to catch the cold air.
He is just standing at his shop’s door. Watching players pass by. It got boring doing the same process. Collecting materials, process them and then selling them to the players. He first enjoyed it but got bored afterwards.
He also considers a job change but rejected it since he has to make weapons for that child.
'I wonder what he is doing. He is probably out there killing monsters. Ah, the youth, I am jealous.'
While thinking, he saw a girl heading straight to the gate. It would have been a normal passerby if not for having no weapons equipped. The monsters beyond the gates are still dangerous even if they are still level 1. So he called her out. She looked at him while standing still and kept staring.
She is staring there for a long time so he called her out again. This snapped the girl back to reality. And then I asked her if she is a newbie which she approved.
'That was a close call. A lot of newbies dies because they rush out to fight. She will need a weapon to protect herself.' So he formed a business with her. He then calls her to get inside his shop to show her some weapons.
And yet, she stands still again and keeps staring in front of the door.
'What is wrong with her?'
So he have to call her again. This snap her back to reality, again. When they are inside, he then ask her the type of weapon she wants which she answers that any cheap is okay.
'That is no good. she won’t be able to survive with that mindset so I will correct her. She was first confused and angry but she understands it afterwards. Her expressions are cute though.'
After she picked her weapon of choice, he invokes his . This confuses her again.
She is really helpless so he has to explain it to her. She is able to invoke it. Afterwards, she left the shop after their trade. He then remembers that she will need some potions.
So he have to call her again to tell her where to buy one. After she heard his yell she continues her walk.
'She is one nice girl' It is his first time to be this amused. So he called her one last time to tell her his name. And he got a reply with her name also.
-‘Nim ey? I will be looking forward to our future businesses.’
New Origins Online
Volume 1 – The Town of Beginning, Démarrer.
Ch 2 – Where am I? And I Hate Strangers.
Drifting and flowing like a river.
It felt comfy but also not.
It went on and on.
Until it reached the end.
-I then opened my eyes.
I saw a lot of images carved at its roof.
It has a lot of people on it.
There was a large portrait of Alshaira holding the world.
And a guy with bat wings holding a sword.
He might be Astaroth.
Somehow, the carvings narrates a story.
I saw a better imagery after I lifted up my body.
2 lines of giant pillars stands side by side.
Each with the carvings of Alshaira.
Small lined windows at the top side of the 2 walls.
Each one of them projects a light with the images that had been carved at their glass.
A big doorway which illuminates the brilliant sunlight.
At my back are stone beds arranged.
Some of them contains people lying at them.
I am right now sitting at one of it.
This… is a temple, right?
I remember being sent off by Alshaira.
It was instant.
So I have no time to react.
My consciousness was suddenly pulled in.
I then settled to this body.
She should have warned me first.
I hate you.
I looked at my hands.
I then moved my fingers,
Twisted my hand,
And clasped my hand.
This is now my body.
It felt unreal but also real.
How exciting.
I had always dreamed to be the character I played.
How I wanted to feel their adventures.
While pouting I noticed my hair hanging.
Its color is black, not pink.
I had a request with the goddess before.
I hate attention.
So make me look normal.
Is what I said.
But did she really make me normal?
I then scanned the room to find a mirror.
And saw 1 at the back corner of the temple.
But it is occupied by two women.
They are looking at the mirror.
Do they also want to confirm their new faces?
I am happy that the producers made a mirror.
For us new players to check our new character.
But, they should have produced more.
One is not enough.
Sigh* can’t help it.
I just have to wait.
I then went nearing the mirror.
Sit down at one of the stone bed near the mirror.
And waited for my turn.
I have waited for minutes.
But they still haven’t left.
What is taking them too long?
They already saw their face.
But why are they still standing there and concerned?
They don’t have to make those kind of poses.
Are they going to stand there for an hour?
I hate waiting.
I will complain this to dad.
That they should add more mirrors.
-After few more seconds of waiting and complaints, they moved out.
That took their time.
But at last, it is my turn.
I hate waiting.
I then went to check my face also.
“Cute… I’m jealous,” says one of the women.
I heard her when I passed through them.
Why is she jealous at the other one?
They look like siblings.
And have the same face.
And yet, she is jealous.
Their face has little difference to no difference.
I can’t understand women.
Though, I’m a woman also.
Not like I care.
-I then looked at the mirror.
My hair did turn black.
My face still resembles my real life face.
But, it is not that mature like the one made first.
But, my chest.
It is flat.
Aww, I hate my flat chest.
Now I felt bad being angry at them.
How I hate myself.
And…
“I hate you goddess” I worded out my complaints.
So I instead tried to be optimistic.
Having a flat chest might be good.
It will probably attracts attention
Women with big breasts attract men.
And I also hate attention.
So, this might be good.
I guess I should be thankful.
Now for my equipment.
a brown shirt, a brown shorts and a pair of brown shoes.
I really look like a beginner.
But it is exposing my skin.
I hate exposure.
And I hate exposing my skin.
The game developers are a pervert.
They should have given us a decent dress.
I have another one to complain to dad.
Won’t my father be a pervert also?
I hate you dad.
And then I heard 2 people fighting.
“I told you to retreat not to dive! We could have lived!” shouted a blonde-haired elf.
“Che, You are just a chicken! If you had just fought…,”. yelled an angry man.
“I’m an archer! Not a freaking swordsman!”
“You had just learned a dagger handling! Did you not!?”
“That is for self-defense!”
And they kept on arguing with each other.
They have probably died.
They are now blaming with each other.
Shut up.
I hate noisy people.
Everyone hears them.
Aren’t they ashamed?
Especially the human one.
He is the one wrong one no matter how I heard it.
What a pain.
Let’s just ignore them.
I invoked the special word that I read from the booklet.
It allows me to see my status.

As of now, I’m a novice.
But once I hit lvl 10.
I will become a swordsman.
Like what I planned before.
I will become a solo player.
Let’s get going for now.
It is getting noisier anyway.
I then walked to the doorway.
But somehow, the light is extending his rays to me.
It is like calling me.
It is so bright that it almost blinding me.
I hate blinding lights.
But I love its beauty
After I stand beside the doorway,
I saw a mesmerizing view.
This is what medieval Europe looked like.
Pathways and houses are covered with bricks.
A bell tower stands at my right.
And a castle can be seen far to my left.
And looking everywhere, I am surrounded by tall walls.
So this is the game world where I will play.
I inhaled the fresh air.
And I then exhaled.
Even though it’s a mere game,
I can still feel the freshness of the air.
How beautiful and cool it was.
I almost mistook it as the real one.
Or maybe, it is the reality.
I then decided to take a walk.
So I lifted up my foot.
But, I realized that I don’t know where to go.
Looking at my left and right did not help.
They look the same.
Should I ask?
But I hate asking questions.
And I hate talking with strangers.
But where should I go?
-For starter, I should leave the doorway. I am attracting attentions.
I randomly walked and took the path at my right.
I don’t even know where the north lies at.
But I kept going straight forward.
And hope that I made the right choice.
With every step I made.
Its beauty was more and more revealed.
How should say it.
It is wonderful.
There were a lot of performances in the street.
A merman bard singing a lullaby.
And people watching him sing while asking for an encore.
2 female plane walkers doing a street performance.
They would jump and run.
They are almost like dancing.
But what made it special,
Are them throwing knives at each other
While catching the flying knives to re-throw them.
It’s dangerous but they seem to enjoy it.
I then heard a lot of cheers and jeers.
I looked at its source.
There are also street duels.
A draconican and a half-giant were having a face off.
A male human in the center raised his right hand.
Somehow the air is so heavy and tense.
“Start!” while he raised down his hand.
2 swords began clashing at each other.
The cheers began to go wild.
It is too noisy so I left.
There were also street artists.
A human sculptor sculpting at unbelievable speed.
It is forming into a rose.
A fox warbeast painting a human face with her tail.
While dancing gracefully.
And a plane walker cooking with such cuteness.
The food’s aroma is being carried by the wind.
I felt hungry afterwards.
After a couple of minutes of walking,
I was called by a stranger.
I do not know what to do.
I was at my father’s back whenever I went out before.
But now, I am all alone in a busy street.
“Hey ya, am calling ya,” says a dwarf.
His voice is so rough.
I felt like running.
But I’m at a crowdy area.
It would feel weird if I run now.
A woman runs away from a man.
It will only call more attention.
So I brace myself.
“What is it?”
“Ar ya new here?”
“I…am” not sure if I should answer it.
“Wel, ya du luk like a newbi. Seein ya goin to da geitwey but kerry no weapon tells me dat ya are a newbi. To equip items, ya have ta carry dem.”
“Headin out to da gate without any weapons is denjahrus. So, how about it? Want ta buy a weapon?” He speaks like a businessman.
I see.
I was about to head to the gateway.
Though, I hate his rough voice.
“Don’t jast stand der, missy. Ar ya goin to buy or wat?” felt irritated that nim is silent.
“Ah… what weapons do you sell?” flustered.
“Sigh*… Dis ar da wepons I sell” Irritated but he had just gained a customer so he just let it go.
“Cam on in.” He enters his shop while prompting me to do also.
Should I enter?
I felt unsafe if I enter a stranger’s shop.
But it is also bad to just leave him.
“Wat ar ya waiting for?” He is now more irritated.
“…Coming…” unsure but still went inside.
It is hot inside.
His shop is a little bit dark.
But the fire produces enough light to see.
There were a lot of weapons hangging, sitting at a weapon rack or just displayed at the wall.
Each racks holds a different types of weapon.
“Now then, wat kind of weapon do ya want?” He asked.
“Any cheap weapons”
“Well, ya ar just starting so geting a chiip weapon is a gud decision”
“But buying a chiip weapons is *tsk *tsk *tsk nah gud” while waving his hand.
No good?
Why would that be?
“Ya hav a gud confused face der, missy”
I hate you.
“Wel, evry wepons has its own durability”’
“Durability is the amount a weapon can sustain hits. So every time you swing, thrust or block with your sword, its durability decreases by one. A bad execution decreases it by 3 instead. There are also spells or effects that heavily decreases a durability.”
“The weapon’s ATK also decreases depending at your weapon’s durability.”
“Once it reaches 0, your weapon breaks. Weapons with rank C and below cannot be salvaged. But B to S rank weapon can be repaired with proper materials.”
This is explained by the guidebook.
But his explanation is way better.
Also, Weapons are ranked from F-A and lastly S as the Highest.
“What I want to say here is, you should buy better weapons. Cheap weapons will let you regularly visit a blacksmith for a repair which is not economically good. You will also have a better ATK so grinding lvl is easier.”

After I finished molding it.
I then put the weapon in the bucket full of water.
And then steam started to rise.
Fuu, another product just finished.
I then went outside to catch the cold air.
I was standing at my shop’s door.
It got boring doing the same process.
Collecting materials, process them and then sell them.
I first enjoy it but got bored afterwards.
Should I change job?
That was when I saw the girl heading straight to the gate without a weapon.
The monsters there are dangerous.
So I called her out.
She looked at me standing still.
And kept staring.
So I called her out again.
This snapped her back to reality.
I then asked her if she is a newbie.
She approved it.
That was a close call.
She would have died there.
She will need a weapon to protect herself.
So I formed a business with her.
I then prompted her to enter the shop.
And yet, she stands still again.
And kept staring.
So I have to call her again.
Which snap her back to reality.
I then ask what type of weapon she wants.
She answered that any cheap is ok.
That is no good.
You won’t be able to survive.
So I gave her a player’s wisdom.
She was first confused.
Then she was angry.
Her expressions are cute though.
After she picked her weapon of choice, I invoked my
This confuses her.
What a helpless silent girl.
So I had to explain it to her.
After our transactions, she left the shop.
I then remember that she will need some potions.
So I have to call her again to tell her where to buy one.
After she heard my yell she continued.
She is one nice girl.
It is my first time to be this amused.
So I called her one last time to tell her my name.
And she told her name also.
Nim ey? I will be looking forward to our next business.

8 148Greys II - Ghosts
There he stood, dark eyes, dark hair, beautiful in the most devastating of ways. It scared me how little he had changed, his hair was longer and black, his frame thinner, like he hadn't eaten since I last saw him. His eyes were different, lacking something they had always held before, lacking anything really, and yet he was the same. He looked weak, but I knew he wasn't. "Hi, angel."His voice was just as dead as his eyes. It sent a shiver up my spine. That was the reason I felt sick, that was the reason he seemed different. He was dead, and as much as I wanted to hate him, I was sad he was empty, sad he wasn't the same man anymore."Hello, Gabriel."My voice came out softer than I would have liked, the words burning my tongue. But it didn't matter, I got the desired effect even if the volume wasn't there. He flinched, his eyes widening, his eyebrows twitching up and together, his jaw setting for just a moment. But then it was gone and he looked away, death settling back in his eyes, in the lines of his face.» ✦ «#2 in Angel Romance#3 in Demonology#11 in Thriller#Mature, 18+ for all the reasons. Not a YA novel (again).**Due to disturbing themes, violence, depression, language and literally everything else, this is not for the kids. Ghosts is darker than Intentions. But you need to live in the dark to appreciate the light...or at least, the lighter grays 🖤🖤
