Chapter Five

"Welcome to my home" I mumbled as I opened the door a little. Glancing around inside. Its clean enough right? "Sorry for the mess" I say anyway.

I pushed it open all the way and went inside. Putting my house and work keys onto the little ring I had next to the door. Closing the door behind Jeon when he came inside.

"Its a little small dont you think? I would go crazy" Jeon whispered. Was I meant to hear it?

So I just responded to it. "I mean, its big enough for me since I live by myself. I usually just sleep and eat here. I'm out most of the day. Working or just walking around you know? Do you live with someone. A big home?"

He shook as head as he sat down onto the couch. Would you like a seat? Too late. Putting his hands into his lap after sitting the bag onto the coffee table. "No its not that big I suppose. I dont live with anyone. I feel like I wouldn't have privacy; if you lived there I think it would okay"

I felt my cheeks flush again. I quickly covered them. Pretending to wipe my eyes. "T-That's nice. Hey um.. Would you like to do something? I have g-games if you like to do that." Finally I moved my hands. Still starring at me.

A smile formed onto his face. Standing up he walked over to my tv. Kneeling down cause he saw thats where the games and the console was located. On a small shelf underneath.

I watched as he pulled games off the shelves and put them back after reading the stories of them on the back. Making me smile at some of the faces he made. Finally he stood up with three in his hand.

Three? How long was he planning to stay?

"Here. This can be our first one" he handed it to me and I smiled. Reading the title. A platformer game first? Wonder if he's any good at games.

"Don't Fall it is". Yes, its a cheesy game name, but man is it a rager. I'm on level 37 out of 50. Can never get past that. So I quit the game to take a break. For my health anyways. Mental health.

I bent and was putting the game into the console while Jeon grabbed the controller and turned it on. Humming as he waited for me to turn to the channel to get it to play. I came over and plopped down right next to him. Changing it to where he could see the game screen now. He pressed continue and I saw his eyes light up.

"So colorful!"

I laughed at his excitement.

It is a colorful game. Its a 8-bit styled game with alot of color indeed. A cute little theme music playing that says "everything will be okay"; which makes you wanna rage even more.

All you have to do is jump from platform to platform. Up, down, and continue to the right till you reach the flag. Then you win the level.

I watched as he was doing very well. Then a small ball of fire came from no where and knocked him out, making him fall off. He froze and his jaw dropped.

"WHAT HAPPENED!?" I laughed at his confusion. Taking the controller from his hands to take my try.

"Those little things knock you off of the platforms. A little too late to know about that" I kept laughing as I pressed the continue button and was taking my turn. Going a little slower then he was to be cautious.

I remember the last time I played this. I know it very well. I got to the very end of the level, got knocked off, so I threw the controller at the wall. Making a hole... I had to buy a new controller. That was fun.

As I was distracted by my own thoughts, I got knocked off. Bringing me back out of space. "Oh no. Crap"

He didn't hesitate or ask as he took the controller from my hands and was taking his turn out of eagerness.

"Hey Jeon. Have you ever played a game before?"

He shrugged his shoulders as he was rapidly pressing the jump button ,"I mean. Console no. I have on like my phone. Not on something like this. I have to admit. Its really fun to play a game like this"

That made me smile. I got a first experience with him. It was a video game. I couldn't of asked for more; I could, but I wont.

He died about half way through the level and handed the controller to me. Without looking, I grabbed the remote. But, I flinched and dropped it onto my knee when I realized our finger tips touched.

He looked at me with bewilderment. Looking at the controller then at my eyes. He's probably thinking it bit me or something.

"I-Im- I-... sorry.. I just thought- that I um- I thought I felt s-something. I mean no I thought I heard s-some thing I'll be back" I handed him the controller back. Almost falling when I scrambled to get up back onto my feet. I went over into the kitchen and bent down beside the island counter where he couldn't see me. I buried my head into my knees and cried out loudly without letting Jeon notice.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!
