Chapter 5: Back Home

Still walking home, our MC was oblivious to the women that were still 'enjoying' his clothes.

He arrived at a quite a rundown apartment block in which (after greeting his neighbours and Landlady) he unfortunately lived in. Using the key, he opened the door and saw his familiarly tiny apartment.

It had 3 rooms: a living room which was also used at a bedroom, a small kitchen and a singe toilet with a sink and a bathtub. All of these were cramped into 450 square feet. Inside the bedroom/living room there was a memorial with a middle aged man photo on top of it. Our MC walked up to it, clasped his hands together and started praying for his deceased father.

Of course, our MC didn't want to live in a tiny apartment and Alice throughout his life had begged him to let her support him financially but our MC always denied her as he wanted to bring himself out of the situation so that he could make his father proud.

Suddenly his phone alerts him that someone is calling.

" Hi Mom, how has your day been?"

"Its been lovely, thank you my baby boy. I was calling to ask you when you are going to come visit me in the hospital?"

"Soon Mum, I've just been super busy with exams and football practice. Il be there to visit you on the weekend."

"Thank you, son. I can't wait to see you in person! By the way i just wanted to tell that I am proud of you and I'm sure your dad is too.

"Thanks Mom, I really appreciate the message. Il see you in a couple days. Bye Mom."

And our MC ended the call with a smile on his face a single tear in his eyes.
