《Frozen Heart》Chapter 6: A small get together
Advertisement
Winter is coming soon as the season of autumn or let's say fall is going to end and the year's gonna end as well. It's really a wonder how time flies so fast and we don't even get to know that how seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and then years pass by. *Smiling weakly*
Anyways it's been such a long day. Our school gave us holidays for a month cause of this damn Covid-19 pandemic. We're having online classes till then. To be honest, online classes suck but still it's better than just sitting idle at home.
My middle school friends are planning for a get together while everyone's home. They asked me to plan but I'm too lazy to plan anything so I told them to do it and let me know the time, date and venue.
"Mom~ pls come here", I called her.
"What is it?" She said entering the room and sitting on the couch.
"Help me select something nice for the get together. I've got nothing nice to wear here", I looked at my wardrobe and pout.
(A born habit of your Author to say that there's nothing nice to wear even if there are tons of good clothing. Can't get rid of it, not my fault tho. Btw do you also have this habit?)
"Where's your white bohemian top? You can wear that", she said.
"It's an evening meet mum, I can't wear that. It'll be too simple. Tell me something fancy, not that fancy but you know what I want to say right?" I said and started rummaging through my clothes.
My mom sighed and asked, "What do you want to wear? Jeans top or dress?"
"Not dress, they're not my type and you know that very well", I said while taking out a crop top.
"Then how about that turtle neck top?" My mom asked.
"How about this?" I kept that top on myself and grinned.
Lemme show you how the top looks. It's a simple black floral crop top but I like it.
My mum sighed, "You already chose what to wear right? Then why calling me here? I've got lots of work."

She was about to leave, "So I'll wear this?"
"Yeah it's fine, wear it", she said and left the room.
"Ok so now let's get ready!" I said while turning on some songs and getting ready for the evening.
I heard some honking sound and that's the sign that Michael is here to pick me up. I quickly take a look of myself in the mirror and off I go~
"I'm going eomma." I said while going out.
"Get back early and safely."
"Yepp!"
And here we go to our decided place. After just a few minutes we reached there and saw some of our friends. I sneaked upto them and pranked them to which they actually reacted and we all laughed.
Other friends joined after a while and we ordered some food and started chatting about what's going on in life.
Lemme first introduce to you my middle school friends.
(I met Chloe at the start of my middle school and we made quite good friends. She's kinda introvert but when she's around her people, you'll probably think your Author was lying to y'all. She used to like gossiping alot and still does but she's gotten better. Anyways she's a good buddy of mine :)
(My all time competetor during school times. We always used to share 1st and 2nd position in class, sometimes it's him or sometimes me. We never got to be on friendly terms as we saw each other as competetors but after schooling and after we got separated and took admissions in different high schools, we're kind of getting along with each other. He isn't an American. He's a Canadian and his story of being in America goes somewhat just like mine.)
(So what should I say about her..?🤔 Ava was a nerd during her elementary school times, she used to befriend school's popular girls just to get rid of that "nerd" title. But now she's the opposite of it. She still gives that nerdy vibes but nevermind. She's the reporter of our friends' group. She gets the news from anywhere and spreads it everywhere. Yeah you got it right. Though she's a good buddy of mine. Btw lemme tell you guys a thing, never ever tell your secrets to Ava, she'll spread it like a forest fire so y'all better be careful.)

(Alfred, the teacher's pet. A very short and simple definition of my friend. Pfft! He was known for behaving all girly during school days. But genuinely, he's a very good guy. Sometimes, he's annoying but he also makes one laugh like crazy and you'll mostly find him hanging around girls. Recently, his flirting skills has gotten a boost and he's trying those shitty skills on his all female friends, yeah including me, your Author.)
(I'm tired of hearing his name coz during middle school days our friends used to tease me by his name and him by my name. Now when we think of those moments, we laugh at our childishness. Shawn has merely 7-8 female friends that's because he's all shy around girls. Well not to mention that he has shared most of his life's dark and wild secrets with me which he hasn't even told to his family.👀 I sometimes doubt him but it's fine coz he never crosses the line of limit.)
Now lemme show y'all my fashion of today~
By the way, one of my friends who used to be my bestfriend isn't here today. Nowadays she isn't in much contact with our other school friends as well. We were besties from our Kindergarten days till middle school days. You must be wondering what happened after that, well, something that made me realise she isn't and can't be my bestfriend. She still thinks I'm her bestie and she's mine and I don't want to hurt her by telling her that we aren't besties anymore so I haven't told her. But she should've understood it that what she did to me ruined everything we used to be.
Nevermind let's not talk about her, let's just enjoy our get together~
They had a nice chat with each other and were done eating. Now it was time for clicking some pics.
"Roséanne Simpson! Climb down that damn slide and come here for a group pic!" Ava yelled at Rose.
"Ah wait wait-", Rose slid down the slide and joined them.
They clicked some real good pics and Rose enjoyed playing around like a kid. There were swings and slides which always made Rose act like a 5 year old kid and that's what she did to which her friends got all frustrated.
"I wasn't in that pic!!", Rose said with a pout.
"Keep going on those slides and you'll be in today's pics okay?" Ryan said sarcastically.
"Yeah go and play on them just like a kid", Shawn teased Rose.
"I like playing. What's the problem with that?! Okay let's do one thing. You guys climb up here as well then let's take some pics", Rose proposed an idea of taking pics on slides.
"Hey it's quite a nice idea. Let's do it", Chloe said and they took some pics like that.
They enjoyed their time, they ate icecreams after that and enjoyed teasing each other. All in all, the get together gave a great and happy time to all those old school friends.
Finally they went back home and Rose went back with Chloe at her place. There, Rose's dad came to pick her up.
"Eomma~ I'm back!!" Rose yelled before even entering the house.
"How did it go?" Mrs. Simpson asked.
"Quite well. I'm tired. I'll tell you everything tomorrow for now I'll just go change and rest", Rose said taking off her wrist watch.
"Okay okay, you'll not have dinner right?" Mrs. Simpson asked.
"Yeah I won't. Now bye~ I'm going to my room", Rose said and disappeared.
(Author: It went good right? Yeah ofcourse it did! Look how your Rosie posie posed for a solo pic.
And that's how she is! Well can't describe her perfectly cause she's not same all the time but she has a kid's heart with an extraordinarily corrupted mind. Well all blame goes to her friends especially her bestie, Sanem. 👀 But she's grateful that her bestie taught her all about what'll possibly come up in future and how to deal with it. So no complaints and regrets.)

The Primordial
With one goal fueling him, he broke through the final barrier, reaching the apex of power and regaining that which was once lost. Trying to find a new beginning, he reforged himself anew as he awoke to memories of a long forgotten past. Memories that intersected with his new reality. His invincible soul now unchained, surprises await him as he begins his new jouney in an unknown land. I'm just writing this for fun, but i'll never drop it. This won't be something short, as I have the very long term in mind, but I'm a total noob to writing, so I most likely won't release chapters very often, at least until I really get the hang of it. But, the chapters will always be several thousand words long. At the minimum 2k, maximum like 6k... Pretty big variations, sorry. If you like it, great. If you don't, that's understandable. Regardless, if you have a read, I'd appreciate feedback for areas you think I should improve on, whether it's the use of some words or how I should write something or WHATEVER. I'm open to anything, good or bad, because with your help, it'll help make this story better. **DISCLAIMER** So you don't waste your time, I want to let you know what you're getting into, because I like knowing ahead of time before I read something. This might appear like a Xianxia novel, but it's not. It only starts that way. This is a western fantasy world and setting that many of you are familiar with. The beginning chapters might be a bit of an info dump. Some of it might seems superfluous, but a lot of information is relevant to the story. The first few chapters might also seem rushed, but I'll try to keep it exclusive to those. This is a cliche, OP MC story with the typical harem, but other than the quick start, everything else will be gradual. There will be romance, and probably many moments at that, but don't expect anything TOO detailed. If you want something really steamy, look elsewhere. References and throwbacks to stuff most likely. The setting won't be really dark or really light. Middleground, I guess. The MC is far from a young kid, but he won't totally reflect his age. I don't plan on discarding info, abilities or characters that you KNOW should come back and be around. I see it a lot and it sort of bugs me haha... but I could have oversights, I dunno. As I said, I'm a noob. That's it, really. If you're interested, welcome to my world!

“It was the race of the century. Millions upon millions of participants lined up at the thousand miles long starting line. The tension and excitement permeated the air like a thick miasma. Even I was affected. Who am I you say?Why I am the world’s greatest adventurer.

They call me the devourer of the hidden, discoverer of secrets, and the destroyer of the unknown. For my name is Charles Brie, the only man who shall win this race!”After my grand monolog, my crew looked at me with awe.“Captain,” My first mate sighed. “We truly pity you and your delusions of grandeur.”And with that, the race that would decide the fate of all began.
