Bad Love

Chapter 2

Evan glanced at his wrist watch and clucked his tongue, hurrying himself towards the meat section. He was already at the counter with two packs of mixed fruits in his arm when he suddenly remembered that he actually had a cart. The problem was he forgot where he placed it. So he went back to all the places he had been and failed to find it until he caught a glance of the single deck meat case. He recalled buying chicken meat. So he quickly made his way to the area and saw his cart. But before he could reach it, something bumped against him and hurt his left knee. He cursed in his thoughts and checked his knee, patting the fabric and hearing a man's hoarse voice at the same time, yelling at him.

"Are you blind? Didn't you see that I was walking towards this area?!"

Evan's eyebrows furrowed after hearing that voice. The man sounded surprisingly familiar to him but he didn't know who. It was like he had heard of it before but he couldn't just get it out of his mind. As he finished checking his knees, he turned to finally see the angry stranger. He would admit that it was his fault because he wasn't looking and who knew this shit would happened to the both of them, anyway?

"Look, I'm sorry alright? I was in a rush," Evan apologetically said and stared down at the man, who had his arms crossed against his chest, with the I-am-fucking-pissed look. Their eyes met and he felt something that he couldn't describe. It surprised him because he didn't normally eye strangers like what he was doing now. Yet he did, and there he was, squinting his eyes at the other one and thinking that he possibly had met him before. Hence, thinking that his voice was oddly familiar.

Evan saw the latter's eyes widen and his forehead crinkled, having the idea that maybe he was a fan and he had seen his face reveal videos already. He wanted to say something to him but the man just snapped out of his own thoughts, turning around with his cart in his hand, and walked away from him. He was even in a hurry, as if he was disgusted by their meeting.

"Oh wow..." he whispered and stared at the fading figure in front of him, shaking his head gently right after. "That was fun."

He remembered his cart once again and this time, he didn't let himself forget. He ran to the cashier to pay. He couldn't wait to get home.

"Delirious! Get your ass over here!" Evan loudly said in a cheerful manner, waiting for his friend in his car. He wanted to show Jonathan this new glitch he did when he was playing alone. He saw Delirious making his own way to his vehicle and hurriedly sat on the passenger's seat, doing the "wanking" gesture with his weird laugh.

"Drive, Vanoss!" his friend beamed and gave his character a punch in the face. He returned him a punch in the face as well and started to drive. They both let out a crazy laugh when Evan bumped into a lot of people on the streets, seeing all of them fly in the air. Suddenly, his car was on fire because of Delirious.

"What did you do now, Delirious?!" he said and grabbed his shotgun, aiming for Delirious' head. His friend chuckled and got out his gun, too. They were facing each other as his car was still on fire.

"'M sorry!"

"I'm gonna have to kill you now, you bitch!"

Jonathan's character began to run in circles and he kept on snorting because it was hard for him to shoot him.

"STOP MOVING!"

"Noooooo leave me the fuck alone, Vanoss!"

Evan put his shotgun down and ran towards his friend, elbowing his head and cackling at the same time. Delirious was such a massive dork. There was never a time Evan's got bored of his games with him. He was so fun to be with especially when it was just the two of them. They were able to do missions together and kill each other in the process.
