《Far Away, In Another Place | Ruikasa》Part 9

*bzzt bzzt* It's probably Rui.
It's currently 5am. I can't sleep because I'm... I can't explain it. I don't know how I feel right now. I grabbed my phone to see what Rui said.
But it wasn't Rui. It was a random number. I opened up the message.
What. The. Fuck.
**********
OMG AMARI
I CANT BELIEVE HE
ACTUALLY KISSED YOU
HIS NAME IS RUI RIGHT?
OMG HES SO HOT BUT I
MEAN NO WONDER HE
FELL FOR YOU
The messages were all in Japanese, which made me feel like it was fake. But then I remembered, Amari is Japanese and probably has friends in Japan. She could've lived in Japan before she lived in the US. That could also be the reason this person accidentally got my number.
No. No. He wouldn't cheat on me. He said he loves me.
**********
OMG AMARI
I CANT BELIEVE HE
ACTUALLY KISSED YOU
HIS NAME IS RUI RIGHT?
OMG HES SO HOT BUT I

I just wanted to make
sure it was them
thank you tho
I GTG TEXT THE
ACTUAL AMARI NOW
No fucking way. This has to be a coincidence. It has to be! I could feel tears emerge from my eyes. No, no, no. Why am I crying? Rui didn't cheat on me this is just a coincidence. Right? He would never do that. More tears came out faster. This is my fault isn't it. I probably said to much and- No. He didn't cheat on me, it's no one's fault. I just need to stop crying and just forget about this situation. I tried to wipe the tears away, but they wouldn't stop comming. I turned my phone off and curled up in my bed. There's no proof he'd do that to me.

*bzzt bzzt*
I grabbed my phone. It was the same number again. I opened the message.
**********
OMG SHE TOOK A PIC
OF THEM KISSING
WANNA SEE
SHE SENT IT TO ME
OMG THEYRE SO CUTE
TOGETHER
No... I dont want to see the picture. Why would I want to see that... They have to be trying to just annoy me. I powered my phone all the way off and closed my eyes. Eventually falling asleep.
I walked over to Ruis house bc I need some more 'proof' that Rui is cheating on Tsukasa. His mother let me in and took me to his room. When Rui opened it, he looked surprised. I went into his room and sat on his bed.
"It's getting late, why'd you come?" He asked
"I was bored and my parents aren't home." I replied.
"I see."
I grabbed a drink from my bag and handed it to Rui. "I found this at a gas station nearby. I have more if you like it"
"Thank you, you didn't have to." He opened it and took a sip. I hoped he wouldn't notice the alcohol I added in it. I wasn't going to do anything bad, I just needed to get him to something he wouldn't agree to normally.
Apparently the drinks were good, because he drank around 2 bottles of straight alcohol.
"I'm so tireddd...." Rui yawned. "I want.... I want Tsukasaa....."
"Hes not here! Ugh.... Okay I get that your drunk but can you listen to me?" I asked.
"I guessss."
"Okay let's take a picture."
"Sure..."
"Put your face close to mine so it looks like we are kissing."
"No... I have a boyfriend..."
"We are not actually gonna kiss! Just do it!"

"Finee..."
He put his face close to mine and I held a paper up to make it look like I was covering our kiss. After taking the picture, I pushed Rui away from me.
Then I sent the picture to Tsukasa. Hopefully he'd buy it.
I got up to leave and Rui was asleep on his bed already. I waved by to Ruis mom and called an Uber home.
I woke up late, meaning I missed school. I didn't really care though. I grabbed my phone and I turned it on.
I had a message... From the random number. It was an image. I hesitated. There's no way. There's no way he'd kiss her. If I see the picture, then I can stop worrying about this, because the photo is gonna be a troll or something. I tapped the notification which opened the message. And I saw the picture.
. . . .
No...
This...
This can't be right...
Can it..?
I started crying again. I needed to talk to someone, so I went to the SEKAI. However, I don't know how to talk to someone when I can't stop crying.
In the SEKAI, I was greeted my Miku. Once she saw me, she panicked.
"Tsukasa, is everything okay? Are you alright? What's wrong?" She asked after running to me.
"I- Its- I don't know-" I tried to speak but I couldn't.
"Stay here I'm gonna go find KAITO." She said and started rushing to find him.
I woke up at around 11, I don't remember much from before I fell asleep. I think I remember Amari comming over, but it may have been a dream.
I opened my phone and it was on Tsukasas messages. That made me remember what I was trying to do earlier. I was planning on trying to talk to KAITO and ask for help. Maybe I could do that right now.
I went to the sekai.
"Tsukasa?" I saw him crying. He was sitting on the ground crying. I ran to him. "Are you-"
"Get away from me!" He said pushing me away.
What happened. . .
Suddenly, KAITO came in between me and Tsukasa. "Rui can you leave the SEKAI for a bit." KAITO asked.
"But-"
"If you don't, then I'll kick you out. I'll allow you in when Tsukasa calms down."
"Wait I-"
Suddenly, I was back in my room again. When I tried re-entering the SEKAI, it wouldn't work.
This is my fault isn't it?

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.
