"Do you know that guy?" Johann rolled his eyes. Jana found the action cute in him. "He looked like he swallowed some shit, you know. When you mentioned the gang." "That's to be expected from him. Josephine is her girlfriend. His aversion to me and my group is nothing surprising." Jana tapped his shoulder. "Thank you for playing the part with me. You memorised your part well. I should really go and treat you to some lunch. Let's go." "That too. Why do you want to pretend like you're some... superhuman being when he's around? I do find it strange when you act like it doesn't hurt. That must have been painful!" Jana shrug carelessly but she sincerely thanked Vivien in her mind. Her body composition can be easily altered. Fanning her pain tolerance to its maximum endurance is nothing. Now she can pretend to be Brian's lost childhood best friend. Although the impression is hard to prove, it's still a doable plan. It's better than nothing. All she had to do is act accordingly to he

Brian ran late next morning in class. He stared at the long line of students getting listed from the guard house. He slept late thinking about Josephine and her 'friends'. This day, he wanted to talk with Jana. Brian decided to try and befriend them. As the old saying said, if he can't beat it then at least he can join it. "Sir! I'm with Jana!" A tall guy with a very large bag in front of him raise his hand. The guard eye him critically before asking, "On what ground, boy?" 'What ground?' Brian pushed his spectacles up on his nose bridge. It had slided down because of his perspiration. "Working student. Here's my working ID." Brian furrowed his brow. This guy repeated his studies and it looked like he's of legal age. Why did he mention Jana's name? The guard let him pass. After signing up his name for the punishment of cleaning the covered court later, Brian ran towards the tall guy. "Hey!" he greeted with a smile. The guy was surprised to see him. His eyes flashed with m

Brian attended the morning class with his mind flying to space without any plans of returning any time soon. To solve his inner demons, he asked for Jana's usual place and bought a juice in advance to offer it for peace. The conversation was smooth and even mature, considering they both had wrong footed the other on the first glance. They had different opinions of the other, none of which are flagrant. Jana prove herself to be nice. Even if she burnt herself unknowingly, her lips flaming red and uncomfortable to look at. Brian couldn't sit still knowing she must have injured her own mouth. 'How can she survive growing up if she's too careless?' He recalled someone protecting Jana. It was 'Anthony.' Before Brian can ask Jana about it, a man appeared behind her with a small box of fruits and a mineral bottle. "Have you eaten anything for breakfast?" Brian silently told himself, 'They're lovers.' He can't be wrong this time. But it looks like god won't give him

FOURTH INSTANCE (3)

Vivien comforted Jana with religious scriptures and motivational passages. After an hour, the system said, "The host's main mission is to change the villain's ending. Dying doesn't have to be a bad thing. In fact, death has always been a powerful catalyst for a huge character shift in the protagonists' mentality. Is the host comforted well enough?" "No." Jana closed her eyes. "I recall George. He was left to deal with my death as well. I just... I can't think properly, okay?" "Host manage to make a huge impact in the last mission. The reward points is above satisfactory level. This should motivate the host enough." "Are you saying I should be caring only for the profits and not the methods that I'm taking?" Vivien ruthlessly said, "The host can barely save herself and buy her own freedom from the game. Why should she cry for other's misfortune?" Jana opened her mouth, only to close it dejectedly. Vivien, as an AI, didn't feel remorse and even blabbered, "The system will enter

Brian knock over a trash bin. His smiled sheepishly when the students inside turned their eyes on him. He greeted, "Hi... sorry I'm late. I just ran straight from my class." "Oh..." Miles' eyes squinted. "Is this 'Brian', Jana? Johann will be so happy to see him." The curious stare became an unwelcoming glance afterwards. Brian had expected it. The guy who he had seen together with Jana in the library was Johann. Even if he do not belong in the group, he is still regarded as a member and the students here see him as friends. Brian is an active member of the debate club. On more than one occasion, he had arguments with Johann regarding the 'gangs' existing in school. Johann was always the one who step off the stage with a furious face. Not because he had lost but because the 'good' students present in the room doesn't want to hear his pro side. "Is he here because he wants to convert?" Jana cleared her throat. The burger in her hand uneaten and still in the perfect condition.

At the third day of doing work in the church, Brian finally blended seamlessly in the group. The straightforward and no-nonsense people brought him a breathe of fresh air. They are not like the students in his class who only remembered him as the class president and as the responsible one. He was allowed to joke here. They doesn't mind that he wants to date Jana. The woman herself turned out to be full of talents. On one occasion, she sung for the church's grand chorale as a dare from Johann. In the end, the grand chorale's manager personally asked Jana to join the group. She refused vehemently in excuse of school and health-related issues. "Bri, pass me that one!" Brian lifted his head from the takeout dinner that Miles bought. He reach for the certain unopened brush and toss it towards Anthony. "Why won't you eat first? The food is getting cold." "It's fine. I don't have the appetite." Jana gave Brian a soda can. He muttered a thanks before chugging it down. "The place

At some point, Jana's 'gang' was indeed related with 'vandalism' before and another acts of disturbances in the community. But she would argue that those initial actions was not from 'her' but the original soul. Hence why the first time she transferred in the mission and was aware of the surface plot, she immediately made a few preparations. First, she made her 'group' legal with certificates claiming authenticity and that they were just harmless students who wanted to earn honestly by doing group work and find belongingness in the school where they were usually called 'outcasts'. Complete with parent consent and the necessary counseling one by one. Now second, for Jana's 'motive' in creating this 'group'. That's where the pill that Vivien gave her became a huge help. With the excuse of her 'terminal unknown illness', Anthony won't have to be questioned for their purpose like raising support and comfort for her while recieving treatment. Consequently, in this turbulent part of Jo

Brian guessed that his situation was the embodiment of 'putting your foot in the mouth.' He had talked a lot of bad things about Jana before. But now, he wanted to punch anyone who would dare cross Jana's way. He avoided Jana for the whole day. He doesn't know what to do. He can't think of a nice sentence to say except 'I hate you. Why did you hide it from me?' But is it really something so easy to tell? They had a rough start and Jana's thoughtful eyes always lead him back into thinking about their initial contact. Brian had condemned her for Josephine's sake. How long has it been? It was almost a year. They almost reach their first anniversary but he was still left in the dark regarding Jana's health conditions. He felt betrayed. For the first time in Brian's life, he gave in in his willful impulses and pierced his left ear. It was a beautiful silver earring. A small flower. This will remind him of Jana. It took him a very long time before opening up to his dad abou

"Her health is not improving. It's rapidly deteriorating everyday. Even your presence couldn't help it, Brian. We should give her peace of mind and let her pass away without worrying about the two of us." Brian nodded his head absentmindedly. His head repeatedly playing Josephine's words about Jana. 'She's a whore! She became a queen bee of the gang because of this 'kind' of effort. What do you know about it, anyway? You're a bookish person. Of course you're clueless!' 'Gangs are essential for people like me, Brian. Because we found friendship in that. Having everyone's back behind you, feels like you can take on any challenge in life!' Josephine is clearly immature and short-sighted compared to Jana. Brian had noticed this before, but he hold himself back, scared that Josephine might be the one in the right and he would back the wrong horse. Still, he threw caution in the wind and started dating Jana. To understand the reason why she had a different thought process with his. H

SYSTEM MALFUNCTION

JANA HEARD a whistle overhead. She ducked in response to the dangerous sound. There came a sudden gust of hot, scorching wind from a flying object. "Watch out!" Denise' blinding smile welcomed Jana. "I thought you'd never get out. Do you like it?" Jana's eyes bulged. The centre is an advanced setting with different themes at every corner. Standing at the middle of everything is a series of mirrors, even hundreds of them. Small planes, the size of her head, keep roaming the wind. "I know you're confused but... from now on, you will be using your own appearance at every instances in the future. Your profile would be constructed by the system but your face, your name and your age, would remain constant thereof." That's how Jana recognized Denise from her entrance in the second mission. "How..." Jana swallowed the shock in her chest and asked, "Where am I going to stay now?" Denise stared at her in response. Jana reached her shoulders to shake it. "Where do I—" She then hea
