8 This is What Heartbreak Feels Like (2)

Today was doomed to be one full of emotions for Zoey.

This song really was written by him?

Zoey is young, and like everyone at her age, she is very interested in music.

She always follows the latest releases frequently. But even though she listened to a lot of songs, she was sure she never heard that piece that the boy just played or even some song similar.

So she was quite inclined to believe that he wrote it himself, although it was hard to swallow.

The music was captivating, the melody was so nice to hear, the lyrics were very meaningful, and on the top, Kay had an incredibly beautiful voice.

"This ... are you sure you wrote it?" She asked again just to confirm.

"Of course it was me, who would be wrong about having composed music itself? But I can understand you, it's too wonderful, isn't it? Hahahaha and then, are you considering becoming my fan?" Kay was not embarrassed at all lie shamelessly about having written the song.

In his mind, that music was his composition.

After all, that music did not exist in this world and was only in his head, then he took it out of his head and showed it to this new world for the very first time. If that wasn't composing, then ... what would it be?

Okay, he may not have the slightest moral sense. But the argument seems to be well worth it.

"So, if I may ask, what is the name of this song?" Zoey asked curiously.

"It's called 'This is What Heartbreak Feels Like'. "

Zoey looked at him intently after hearing the name.

His mind was running at full speed thinking about various possible scenarios and trying to deduce why the song is called that.

She looked into Kay's eyes.

The same eyes which she found the hints that she might have been crying early were now a little damp.

"If you'd told me this would end as soon as it all started, I would have found the rest of me, but I guess I'm just not there.�� She thought about one of the verses in the song while taking a deep breath.

"Don't be depressed, you will get over it." She said as she grabbed Kay's hand tightly.

Her eyes also start to get a little moister.

She was a very empathetic person and once she was able to absorb a little more about the meaning of the song, she couldn't help feeling touched and sad by Kay's situation.

In her head, she created a series and tragic events, from cheating to abusive relationships. She fantasized about the kay's sad relationship in her mind and took her version as truth.

Kay looks at Zoey with confused eyes.

He is not confused by her action. He knew about how well that song would perform and what people would think about its history when listening to the song.

What confuses him is the fact that even after having such a strong reaction, he still hasn't received any notification from the system about having completed the quest to gain the first fan.

Why doesn't she count as a fan?

She liked the song, and besides, she felt sorry for me.

Are there other criteria that need to reach for someone to be considered a "fan" by the system?

"System, how do I complete the quest to get the first fan?" he asked in his mind.

"..."

"System, what are the criteria for getting the first fan?"

Kay tried to ask again, being more specific.

"..."

Again without an answer.

"System! Show me the requirements for the first fan quest. "

-

[Ding!]

• Win your first fan (0/1)

Reward: +1 talent point, +100 quest points

-

Damn, that's not it, it's not for showing me the quest window. I already know what's in there.

"System, answer my question, how do you reach the requirements to complete the first fan quest?"

"..."

"System, answer the host!"

"Hello~ system��

"Moshi Moshi, system-san~ ?"

Kay tried every form of communication he could guess, but it had not worked.

The only explanation is that his system was not the type that had a personality of its own, always talked with the user, underhanded, and sarcastic.

He was just a machine with no conscience at all.

This is kinda good.

Reviewing his memory and remembering novels stories with systems, he feels a big aversion to these so-called systems full of will and shit personality.

But now that he had his system, he felt a little heartbroken that he had no one to question about the quest issues.

"It looks like I will have to find out the answer on my own."

Kay decided not to spend too much time thinking about it, after all, there was no solution.

He then looks at Zoey.

"You don't have to worry so much, I'm over it." He says as he lets out a cheerful laugh.

Zoey looks at him with a serious face.

She doesn't believe it at all.

She has already created a whole plot in her mind. She was convinced that he is in suffering even now by giving that smile.

"Changing the subject, do you have an account on any social media? Let's exchange contacts when I post this song I can give you the link" he told her, trying not to continue on that topic.

"Ah yes, I have."

They then exchange contacts while saying goodbye.
