9 Slow progress part 2

I did a couple of exercises for about an hour straight, after exercising, i relaxed my muscles, since blood started to pump up. I stretched them as i relaxed, so that my muscles would be in a active phase, without me using them.

As usual, i was soaked with sweat. I took off my shirt and wiped off my sweat, i was moving my body so that my muscles would not cramp up. I put on a fresh shirt and walked into the kitchen, i was hungry and my sister left some leftovers breakfast for me. I washed my hands and rinsed off the sweat and built up dirt on my face inside the sink, i wiped off the dripping water off my face.

I drank some water before eating my breakfast, i checked the time, it was almost 8. I whipped out my phone and started scrolling through the internet, as i ate my breakfast.

I was reading a novel based of a game, because i wanted to get more knowledge about how systems work. Even though i play videogames, i still do not know how it works totally. So, as any normal person would do, i searched on how leveling up in a videogame works, and read some novels that uncovers how systems work.

Apparently, not all videogame and systems work the same. What i had was somewhat only resembles the ones inside a videogame, and the novel that i had read. But, not really the same. Since, it was a waste of time, i had just put my phone away and finish eating my breakfast.

I was chilling inside my room after i ate breakfast, i had nothing to do, and it was only 9am in the morning, i did not want to move. I decided to connect my phone onto my speaker and played some music. Listening and singing some anime songs, i laid on my bed looking into the hole that appeared two days ago inside my room.

"It seems other people really cannot see this hole"

I was confident, since my sister did not even mention on why there is a mysterious hole that had appeared into my room. That was second reason on why i am confident that i am the only one that can see this hole.

(Authors note: don't mind me, i am just trying to make it to the word count)

I grabbed my phone, and my friend sent me a another message.

"Bro, can you at least read my messages bro?"

While spamming random words that do not make any sense, i decided to open his messages.

"Yeah, i was just busy, sorry"

I replied...not even five seconds, he immediately replied to my message.

"Dude, WTF!!! You just decided to reply to my messages??? After two whole fuck*ng days??"

I guess he is mad right now.

"Chill, its not like im dead"

"F*ck you!!! Anyway, you got suspended right?"

"Yeah, today is my last day"

"Okay, ill see you tomorrow then"

"Okay"

I immediately closed off the app, and continued singing some anime songs.

After a while, i was getting bored. I grabbed my phone and started to get back on my drawing. I had this project that i had procrastinated on for about five days now, i did not have the motivation to finish it. Since, i got tired of drawing.

It was an anime drawing, the only thing that i had to finish was, the coloring and shading. Other than that, the lineart and the proportions was good enough. I spent about an hour, finishing the coloring and shading. I looked at it and was proud on what i had drawn, then closed off my sketchbook.

When i tried to check the time, there was a exclamation mark that popped up next to the stats button. I clicked on it, it was an achievement. Saying.....

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: PATIENCE AND DISCIPLINE.

It gave me two skill points and 15 EXP, i immediately used up the skill points. Since, it was just leftover skill points, i had placed it on magic and defence.

"So there are also achievements? Is there a list of all the achievements? It would be cool if i can see all of the achievements that i can achieve..."

I looked for it, but to no avail. Seems, it is just a thing that will normally pop up if i did something that qualifies as an achievement. Since, the achievement that i got was patience and discipline. I could only only speculate, that it is based on my character and the things that i do.

"Thats pretty neat! And it rewards EXP and skill points"

But, compared to leveling up and completing a quest, it was a pretty small comparison.

"It is not something that i can depend on"

I did not like being outside of my room, i do not like going on a trip that i have no particular purpose on going. It was just wasted effort, since all of my stuff is in my room, why go somewhere else?

That is something that i am confused with other people, why waste time going on trips, when you can spend your leisure time inside your room.

I do not really find the purpose on doing all of that. That probably explains why i am a loner.....i mean, its better being alone with yourself, than being alone with other people that do not have any interest in you.

Being friends with the wrong type of people is the worst thing that you do to your own self. Its practically the same as self-harm, without really hurting yourself, because other people will do it for you.

Anyway, it was around 3 pm. The sun light was going through my window, reflecting its light into my room. It bounced off the floor and onto the walls, it was warm and made me relax. The wind traveling into my room, the fabric of my bedsheet caressing between my legs made me have goosebumps, it was relaxing.

I fell asleep due to it, i woke up and it was already 6 pm. Meaning, i had slept for about three hours. I felt my jaw tighten, my arms, back, and also my legs were sore after i woke up. The stretch made me feel alive again, i was still tired and did not want to get out of my bed. Everytime i tried to get up from my bed, it always pulls me into its grasp. Like some monster, that do not want you to get away.

I fought the beast the best that i could, but it was too strong for me to resist. It pulled me into its lair, unable to get out. I passed out immediately and woke up with my sister pinching my cheek.

'Gibberish'

"Huh?"

I could not hear what my sister was trying to say, all i heard was gibberish not being able to interpret anything she was trying to say. Then, i felt a strong impact on my head.

"Can you get up already?"

It was strong enough to make me hear what my sister is saying, though i am pretty that my sister just hit me on the head...

"Huh?? Yeah, just give me five more minusss....."

I was too tired to finish the sentence, then my sister dragged me out of my bed.

'Thud'

"Aughhhhh!!! What was that for?!!"

I shouted, i fell off my bed and i hit face first on the hard, burnished floor.

"I kept yelling at you to get up, so we could eat together"

"Is father not home?"

"No, he had another business trip. He will come back after a week, its just us till then"

My father is busy as always, since he is a manager of a rich company. They have been working him out tirelessly, without any break. I feel sorry for him.

"Get up lazy, i have already prepared dinner for you"

"Okay okay, can you let go of my leg now please?"

She released her grip that she had on my leg, then, walked outside of my room. I was still laying on the floor, stretching and yawning after the long nap i had.

I got up, and threw my blanket on my bed. Without organizing it, i walked into the kitchen. My sister was already eating, i was still sleepy, i drank some water and sat on the chair next to my sister.

"Why are you tired?? You did not have school today nor work"

"Yeah, my body just gave up on me, and decided to take a nap"

"Lazy idiot, here eat your dinner already"

She shoved the food she prepared for me, i thanked her and ate little by little. After a few minutes, my sister finished eating and placed her plate on the kitchen sink. She uttered this sentence before going to her room...

"You'll wash the dishes tonight, you got that?"

It was not a request, it was an order from her. I had to no choice but to nod my head, after i had finished eating. I grabbed my plate and did the dishes, after i was done, i drank some water and went to the bathroom. So, that i can rinsed my face and brush my teeth. Then, i went back to my room.
