Smoking addiction?

The truck came near the city. It looked quite lively. People of all ages were moving from one place to another.

The truck moved to a bus stop and stopped.

Arata came down from the truck.

"Thanks for the ride sir. It was a huge help."

"No problem son. Stay safe, don't get lost again."

Saying so the man drove the truck away.

I stood there for a moment and watched the truck go.

"What a great man. Didn't know me and still helped me. Shows that there are still some kind people."

I looked around and then started to walk in a random direction.

While walking I came near a clothes shop.

When I walked in people were looking at me weirdly. But, I ignored them. Those are the type of people who judges a book by its cover.

I came across the section for shirts. I took two, one light blue and the other white. Then I went to the t shirt section where to tool three, one pure black, the second one white but had a logo on the chest area. While the other was a yellow t shirt with black lines to the side.

Then I got a pair of shoes and a blue trench coat. Two blue jeans.

After trying them out I went to the cash counter to check them out.

The women in the counter was looking on har phone.

" I would like to check them out."

"OK put them here."

I did as she said. She checked them and looked at har computer.

"That will be 28.95 dollars sir. Cash or card?"

"Cash."

I gave har the money and she took it. Then she gave me the change.

After taking the money I went away.

Then I went to a alley and changed my clothes.

I weared my coat, balck t shirt, and blue pants.

I checked my money, I had almost 70 dollars.

But I know I will run out of the money. So, I need to get money fast.

As I was thinking this I bumped into someone.

"Sorry."

I said while walking away. But, someone grabbed my collar and pulled me towards them.

I looked at the person who did this and saw a black man. From the looks of it he might be from a gang.

He held my collar and looked at me with scowl on his face. He was angry.

"Ni****, did you think you could walk away after bumping into me huh?!"

"I said I was sorry. I didn't see you."

"Nah, a sorry is not gana work. You gotta pay me. Give me what you have or i will beat you to the pulp!!"

I looked at him then looked around me. I saw the people, they were standing there watching the show. Some were videoing all of this maybe to post on social media. I also saw two cops across to road eating donuts while also watching. But, no one coming to help.

Then I realised, no one will help me. I got to help myself. You can't never expect others to just come to you and help you, that's impossible.

While there are people like the truck driver who are truly kind. But, the majority of them a not. And because of this the society has become like this.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and the exhaled.

I looked at him in the eye with a serious face.

"Let Go Of Me."

"What did you say, ni****?!"

"I said LET GO!!"

After saying that I pushed him away. Maybe because I was angry or maybe for some other reason. The push I gave him made him fly away and hit a street lamp. He hit his head and he went unconscious.

Huhhhh

The people were shocked. The cops were also shocked.

Before they could do anything I ran away in top speed.

I was running so fast that everything was like a blur to me.

'So, this is the effects of superhuman physiology, huh?'

After running for five minutes I came across a building. There many people were in a line.

I was curious to why so many people were here so I asked a random person.

"Oh, they are signing up for the cooking competition. It's a compilation to see who is the best chef in california. I heard who wins this will be able to participate in the master chef amarica because gorden ramsay I here."

Hearing this I also walked in the line. While waiting for my turn I looked in the notification I got from the system.

< +2 character template for betting up thug>

'So I get points even outside of missions. That's neat.'

As time went by it was my turn to sign up. They gave me a pen and a paper. I wrote all the necessary informations and then they took my photo.

After that they told me to come back tomorrow in this place while giving me a card.

I then looked at the card and walked away.

I took a cab and told the driver to take me to the nearest hotel.

I then booked a room for myself for five days.

And it costed me like 20 dollars.

I went in my room and then I took a shower. After that I went to sleep. The day was quite stressful.

After taking a nap I wake up in the evening. I went out ot get something to eat.

I know my eating routine is ruined but I am hungry and I will fix it form tomorrow.

After eating at a Chinese restaurant. I was walking back to the hotel. The food was good and quiet cheap but for some reason I was disappointed.

While walking I had a urge to smoke. I didn't know why but my hands were twitching.

So, I bought a box of cigarettes.

I took a cigarette and lit it with a lighter.

I smoked and started to walk.

"Hey june, why did I have a urge to smoke?"

<it is because of you character template. I somewhat effects the hosts personality.>

"So, that's what happened."

I took a puff and said,

"Smoking killed me once, I am not afraid if it does it again."

When returned to the hotel and in my room it was already night.

So, I went to the bed and sat.

Then i though for a moment while taking my forth cigarette.

'Why not complete the hidden quest?'

I then summoned the cooking book. The book was thick. A lot of recipes were in it.

I to a puff and said,

" IT'S back to studying again."

Yeah I had to finish reading it in the night cause tomorrow is the competition.
