It's June 2020, and the government announced a statewide shutdown. Jobs and schools were virtual, and masks and sanitizer were advertised everywhere. It was boring, and you had nothing to do but play all day. Sometimes you'd play by yourself, and sometimes you'd play with a group of people or 1v1. Your favorite game at the moment is GTA. In this game, you were normally the only girl amongst the guys. Of course, guys become STUPID anytime there's a woman present and can't control themselves.
There was this one guy, KB, who was cooler and funnier. Any time the guys would get on you, he'd defend your honor. You and he have been friends for a few months. He's always watching your Twitch stream when he can. One night, you were sitting on your bed, reading a book called "Desires," when you got a notification on your monitor to join a game. You got up and checked the notification, and it was Khari. You accepted the invite, and it was just you and him this time. You grabbed your headset and controller and logged in.
"What up? What up? What up?" He spoke through the headset. "Nothing much. You ready to get whooped?" You asked him. "Nah, I'm doing the whoopin. Let's go." He responded. "You gonna keep talking or play? I'm hearing a lot of nothing." You said to him. "Girl... okay, let me show you something. Im bouta tap that ass." He replied while playing the game. The object of this game (in this story) is to complete missions and obstacles to find your opponent. So far, you've completed your first mission, and on your second, he was still on his second one.
"Where you at KB? Don't let me catch you lackin'." You said over the headset. He remained quiet and focused, and he finally finished the first mission. But meanwhile, you were in the third. "Let a nigga get back up." He responded. "No, nah, my nigga you were talking all that shit. Where you at tho?" You said as you completed the third mission. You were so close to finding him until another group killed you. "Aaaahhaaa. Looks like somebody caught yo ass lackin!" He said excitedly. He was happy to finally be able to catch up with you.
"Shut the fuck up! I'm still gonna win!" You exclaimed. "Yeah, yeah, yeah." He replied. You were focused, finishing all the missions until you finally saw Take's character and defeated him. "NOW WHAT?! Gotta be quicker than that nigga!" You celebrated. "I let you win." He said. "If that's what you gotta tell yourself, my love. Just know I tapped that ass." You responded. "Okay, enough of that. When you gonna come see me?" He asked you, changing the subject. "We've been keeping each other company for months, and I enjoy our time together. I want to meet the girl behind the screen." He added.
"I don't know...I've never met anybody I played games with. Never thought it would get this far either." You responded. "If I fly you out here, would you be okay with that? If you not ready to meet me, that's okay too." He stated. "I've never been on a plane before, though." You replied. "Damn, really?" He asked. "Nope, but I do want to meet you in person so.... I guess I'll try something new." You added. "Okay, cool. I'll send the PJ out to you tomorrow around... 2 ish...?" He said. "Okay, that's a bet." You said and then hung up.
