Chapter 8: chapter 8:unexpected encounter
Arriving home, I took a shower and changed clothes while I was showering, I was thinking
man, I need to learn how to deal with people, I had no idea how to deal with a
girl crying, I have no idea how to deal with that..
2 weeks later: > It's been 2 weeks, I've been training every day
going to school but I still can't get that night out of my head
a girl crying like that, how do you deal with it?
the only thing I can think of is not making a girl cry
Since then, I haven't seen Tory at school. I hope she's not skipping or anything like that.
leaving school, with my bicycle, I was about to leave when I heard someone calling me
Hey Gabriel
hm? I looked back and there she was...
Hi Tory, you've been missing for 2 weeks, where have you been?
Tory: yes, I came to school these days, I just wasn't going to the cafeteria.
I was eating somewhere else because there are a lot of gossipy people here.
Hmm, I understand, are you okay? you know since that day
Tory: Y.. yes, I'm fine, actually I just called you now so you could take me to my job.
I'm late, I can't go on foot, so you said you would help me, so how about it?
Sure, let's go. Where is it?
Tory: and the same one where you saw me 2 weeks ago ....
Hmm, got it, let's go, I hope it doesn't rain today, haha, I don't want to catch a cold, haha.
Tory: yes haha I also prefer it not to rain, Gabriel can you tell me where you live?
you never said...
Well, I never saw you again after that day. If we had time, I would have told you everything.
almost everything up to today lol, I live at ..... number 303 anytime you want just go there and visit me
a visit ..
Tory: Hmm, I understand, it's nearby. Alright, any day I'll pay you a visit.
but now I need to get to work on time, so let's hurry up...
about 7 minutes later ....
Ufff, man, this really tired me out, but it's okay, you're delivered.
Tory: huff (punch on the shoulder) I'm not an idiot commodity
hahaha sorry, it's better you hurry up
Tory: thanks Gabriel, I'll repay you later, BYE
haha BYE GOOD WORK ....
So I went back home, took a shower, lay down for a bit, and took a nap.
2 hours later ...
Dude, what a great nap, I really needed that. Alright, now let's go.
I turned on the laptop and accessed my finances.
hehhe about 880 thousand dollars, I'm getting close to my first million
with this money, I no longer need to worry about it for many years, I am a very organized guy
I definitely won't go around spending it recklessly, I'll invest even more...
I'm going out to get some fresh air around 3:30 now....
but man, in 2024 there were a lot of electronics around, in 2007 it's really boring around here
I mean, there are Xbox 360 and PS3 around, but I definitely don't want to get too attached to these things.
the best thing was getting away from those things, they are very addictive, when I got home from work I would go straight to the PC to play kkkkk
now that I'm doing pretty well with money, I'm thinking of spending a year in Mystic Falls
next year, I want to delve deeper into this world, honestly here in this place where I am, nothing interesting is going to happen
the only thing that is definitely interesting to me in this place is Tory, without a doubt I feel something for her
but at the moment she has many personal problems to deal with, I don't want to interfere too much, so as not to seem desperate for attention
Things here only get interesting in 2 years, so I'll take a year off from this place and transfer to Mystic Falls High School.
I want to make contacts with people I can talk to, I also want to go out to other places, staying in one place is not my thing.
some time later ....
Today is Saturday, I'm going out a bit, just training at home, it's already getting boring.
while I was cycling around the city, I saw Samanta Larusso and two other girls walking together
? : the clothes of that woman who just passed by were so tacky
?: hahahah yes, I've never seen anyone wear such an ugly dress
?: .....
?: Hey, isn't that Gabriel passing by?
?: Yes, the girls in my class say he's super funny or something like that. Do you know him, Samanta?
?: Sam, do you know him?
samanta: actually, not exactly, I met him when he entered the school and bumped into me, moon
moon: I understand, I think he's really cute, if he asked me out, I would accept
yasmine: WHAT MOON? Are you serious, do you have a crush on him?
moon:~~ I mean, he's really cute and also funny, don't you think, girls?
Yasmine: Well, I mean, he is cute, yes, he is funny, but he is very short and hangs out with those nerds, don't you think, Samanta?
Samanta: Yes, I think he's cute too. From what I've heard about him, he likes to help those who are less fortunate.
he already helped a friend of mine who was being bullied, and he also helped a classmate of mine who was being beaten up by some older bullies
moon: saw saw Yasmine, he's SUPER cool, don't you think now?
Yasmine: Well... he seems nice, but he's still too short for me.
Hahaha, what a craziness, man, these girls are something else, they love talking bad about people behind their backs.
Tory said there's nothing but gossips at school, speaking of which, I think I'll visit her.
dude, I'm really becoming sentimental with this teenage romance thing lol
I mean, I died without having a girlfriend in my life. I've been with several girls, but I never knew what it was like.
dating, maybe in this life things will work out for me in this world ...
meanwhile at the snack bar
Tory: I'm tired ahhh > I worked a lot today...., I want to see him again
since that day, just thinking about his name makes my heart race
I mean, he didn't do anything extraordinary for me, but it's as if he gave me a purpose.
since then I feel more alive, with more energy to do things, and I don't even complain about things anymore
maybe I'm starting to like him...
plin plin
Tory: welcome, how can I help...
YO 👋 I came to visit you Tory, I'm also hungry...
make a milkshake for me and some fries
Tory: alright... A MILKSHAKE AND A POTION OF FRENCH FRIES ...
IT'S GOOD..
Hey Tory, it's empty here today...
Tory: Actually, I worked a lot today; many people came before you got here.
Oh, I see, sit down, let's talk a bit.
Tory: all good ..
after 7 minutes my food arrived
Does Tory want to go out with me to the movies one of these days?
Tory: what... what? like a date?
yes, like a friends' get-together, how about it?
Tory: friends... all good, I'm free on Tuesday at 4 PM...
all good.
Tory:.....
What? Did you get angry because I said Friends? hahahahaha
Why did you want it to be like my girlfriend?
Tory: What? OF COURSE NOT, IDIOT, WHO WOULD WANT TO BE YOUR GIRLFRIEND?
hahahaha alright then, I'll see you later, bye Tigresa
Tory: GRRR
hahaha
plin plin.....
