New Feature

"And that?". I felt something in the pocket of my shorts, it's weird because I remember putting everything in my [Inventory]. I took it out of my pocket and noticed that it is a folded piece of paper, the handwriting is beautiful, like that of a woman.

-Fabri, my friend Diane needs help with her garden, if she can go to her house after your classes. She is very nice and she will pay you for your good work, plus you don't need to do anything complicated, it will be nice.

 PS: She lives in the North part of your school, you will notice it easily because she is next to the Church-

"I don't know anything about gardening, but if I can make some money I'll give it a try." I put the note back in my pocket and sent it to my [Inventory]. Maybe Debbie left it there when she hugged me.

 I look back and take a look at the house, it's a typical American house with a mailbox, a garage. It has 2 stories and the land is bordered with long, well-kept bushes that act as a wooden fence. In addition, it is painted in different shades of brown.

"[Map]". I say the word out loud and the blue HUD screen pops up, literally showing me a map of all of Summerville, or so I think because everything is covered in fog, except for my house and Erik's.

[Map: A map detailing the places Fabricio visited using the Summer System. It cannot be deleted. The user must move to unlock more areas of the map]

 When I focused for a moment those words appeared. So I have to move to unlock more places, for now I only have my house and Erik's house unlocked.

"Hey, Fabricio, hurry up, we'll be late for school!" I heard a voice between high and low. That's my friend Erik's voice.

Turning around I see my friend walking out of his house. He is fat, has freckles, a big nose, square glasses, and light brown hair disheveled like a bird's nest. He has a stain on his green shirt that is too small for his belly, blue shorts that are falling off as his white boxer shorts are showing, and a handheld game console in his pocket. This is my friend Erik

"Hi friend". Erik has dark circles under his eyes.

 Hi Fabri. He greets me listlessly, now I'm pretty sure he was up playing video games all night, again. He should stop playing so much, at least a little less than 8 hours a day.

"Dude, your shorts are about to hit the floor, you'd better get those adjustments." I told him out of kindness.

"Okay i do not care". I knew he would tell me that, Erik is always like that, he doesn't care what he looks like. Although I can't really say much.

"You shouldn't have played all night mate, you know it's bad. We have classes now." Seeing him so tired already makes me normal, but I still remind him.

"Ha*, can I tell that much? The new game that came out recently is so good, I couldn't help but play it all night." At least it seems that this time Erik regrets it, although he will surely do it again tonight.

"Hey… I'm sorry about what happened to your father friend, I know it's hard. But you know you can count on me, I'll always support you, through thick and thin." Erik covers his face with one hand, then speaks slowly.

"Haha, thanks buddy. Now I feel better, let's go to school now or we'll be late." I laughed a little at how cheesy Erik sounded when he said that with flushed cheeks but I really appreciate it, he is the only friend who was always by my side.

"Hey, is there any new construction? And what about those dogs?" On my way to Frontier School, which is only two blocks away, I noticed new construction sites where there were previously vacant lots or houses.

"It seems that some rich people from outside will build some interesting places here. And that house with a lot of dogs belongs to a lady who doesn't like the view." Erik explains to me with a smile as if he is happy to know, but he changes to a frown when he talks about the house with the dogs, it seems that he had a bad experience with them.

"Damn it! It can't be!" Suddenly Erik shouted loudly, the people on the street looked at us strangely.

"Hahaha". I couldn't help but laugh, Erik stepped on dog shit, besides the big ones and got his shoes dirty.

"See, it's alright now. Let's go." I try to cheer Erik up as we get to school, but he's still in a bad mood, he's already cleaned his shoes but the smell of him still seems to linger.

"Yeah sure, it's easy for you because you don't smell like dog shit." Erik couldn't get over that.

"Hik*, guys… don't you have, hik* any coins?" I looked in the direction of the person who was asking. There was a middle-aged man with a thick black beard, his clothes dirty and ragged. But what stood out the most was his strong smell of alcohol.

"Crazy Nick is still the same huh." I muttered under my breath, ignoring the drunk beggar. I don't feel sorry for this guy because twice I gave him my money and he spent it on beers. This man has no salvation unless he wants to change for himself.

"Crazy Nick ran out of money again. Don't pay attention to him. Although I really don't understand how he can appear everywhere, there are people who say they have seen him in two places at the same time." Erik advises me but I would do that anyway. Crazy Nick is not a supernatural being so I don't know why there is so much mystery on Erik's part.

 I take one last look at crazy Nick, who is playing with a beer bottle, and continue on my way.

  Frontier School is in front of me. The school is gigantic and has more than three floors for all its students. Its architecture is classic, like the castles of England but with a touch of modernity. Many students are arriving and passing through the double front doors. This is my school that I will graduate from when I finish this semester in June. But before that I must meet my goals

1) Find my father's killers.

2)Get my own GT4.

3) Take a girl with me to the prom.

4) Be happy.
