So I am constantly asked about why I don’t crush on guys. No, I’m not bi, though that would make a much more interesting story than,¨Girl who likes 2D guys¨. Why you ask? Because 3D guys are jerks who are imperfect, shallow, stupid and don’t get it when you try to clue them on your feelings! I ignored it for a whole year in my second year in middle school before I had enough. Most girls are like, ¨It’s a beautiful unrequited love!¨. Yeah, a beautiful unrequited love is never with a so called happy ending! I can’t even believe that I tried to be beautiful for someone else! Like no! Noooooooo! Why would you do that? So during the start my third year in high school I dyed and cut my hair, wore plain clothes, stop using my piercings and wearing makeup, and basically became a rebel figure. As another bonus, the girls in my class stopped hating me and I got friends! I even began writing and making dating simulation games, from which get scouted to become legit. I now get paid about 12 grand for each game I make. They keep my identity a secret with the alias, -xR♥dfr♠st- so that people won’t know that they’re letting a senior in high school write and create erotic dating Sims that are popular at a global scale.
I sit in front of my computer, drinking a pint size coke. My screen displaying my newest project. A mess surrounding me, I try to clear some of it away to make space for my new drawing tablet. I pick up a pile of trash and a picture flutters to my feet.

Humans are easy. Put on stage make-up and memorize the script, and they take you for the real thing! I walk down the halls with my head slightly down and they take me as shy. Talking to people at an easy pace quietly makes me polite and social. And a smile. A smile makes me popular! They don’t even realize it, but they’re all merely pieces on my game board with me as the player. I am not a contestant of their foolish rivalry over popularity,for I was at the top from the start! Look at that girl Ibec! Going as far a swearing off boys after her little failure with Crow to be popular! Not even knowing the things people call her because of that! Stupid, if I must say. Now what gives me the right to call everyone this you ask? True, I am no god, but I am definitely higher that what this world distinguishes as human.
I wonder what new games has -xR♥dfr♠st- made. The most hit game creators in the dating simulation game business, some call this mysterious game team true genius! Their games are perfect practice for my manipulation skills. Simple men like such are uncultured swine, and need to stop with their ulterior motives! I will be the one to bring such swine to justice!
“Ai will you come to help me study tonight?” James asks.
A)S-sure
B)Absolutely! Why not! Any time!
C)*$#@ NO!!
D)Another day maybe…
At a time like this what to do...what to do…what…
“Pick up your phone, It’s you're editor! Pick up your phone!,”pops up on my screen.
What is his problem!!! “Yes? It’s me Aika!~”
“Oh, Ai, sweet and charming as always!”
Of course you moron, I don’t practice for nothing.
“Well about the due date, I’m sorry but I can’t hold it any longer, could you please hand it in by tomorrow?”
*$#@ No!! You useless excuse of an uncultured swine! Imbecile! “Um, sure but I have a lot of studying…”Not a complete lie...just...studying you uncultured swine…
“Oh, I’m sorry, we’ll raise your pay for this!”
You better.“Oh it’s fine! Don’t worry!”
“You're so kind, thank you!”
No, thank you.“Don’t worry so much and get some sleep! It’s already 2:31 AM”
“Thank you, bye!”
“Bye!~”
*sigh. Now that that’s over...I turn back to my large computer screen. Finally! Now that that’s out of the way… A pop up! I clicked on a pop-up! Screw you world!!!
At that time, there was no way for me to see, how this one pop-up would change my life.

I’m guess I’m the result of some who quit on the game of life. I mean all I need to survive is the internet. I don’t need figurines with emotions or date life size barbie dolls. I don’t need school, I have an IQ of 182. I don’t need anything that’s real because one day it will dissapear. The only real thing I need is the internet and a device that could use it. If I ever lose anything, it will only be a toy and the virtual reality; not a best friend, a family and the respect of my piers. After all, every real thing I care about is a mere illusion anyway.
Ah, theD♪ce. The MMORPG that is the raging across the globe. Made by prodigy game creator by the alias CUbe◘, who even rivals -xR♥dfr♠st- in sales for games. D♪ce is the first of many self developing games that do not require admins. With a self monitoring system and unique quests and characters for each individual, this is the largest MMO in the world! I really want to try it!
I push aside my mangas by Ai and a texts comes on my phone with a buzz. I reluctantly reach into my pocket.
OMG call me already!!!

I sigh and toss my phone onto the pile of junk on my bed. Unwashed clothes, books, trash, cup noodle cups, chip bags, coke bottles; you name it we most likely have it.
I startup the computer and put on my headphones.
Leaving the loser named Eden Kinlan behind.
Crow Eden://c.!//p.$.end//n._admin_
Oh look, it’s that prodigy!
He must be rich from all the money he makes.
That’s all people think when they look at me. But let me get this straight, I’m not rich. My mom is. Mom also makes me act like it. Sure, being a game maker is amazing and all, and don’t get me wrong, being an admin is quite fun, but when your fun becomes your families source of income, it loses it’s point. I mean, as admin, people see you as someone of a different rank, not the average player. You may play as a fresh character like anybody else, but you know the game better than the everyday player.
That’s why I created D♪ce. Independent, it can run without me, and I’ll be able to play like anybody else! None of the You're cheatingand crap. All’s fair game.
Mom’s always like You have to make better games or else xR♥dfr♠st will go ahead of you!I don’t think of Red as a bad person, I mean this person probably understands me best. The two of us are constantly compared, TV, online chat rooms, newspaper; anything and everything.
I...just want to be like everyone else.
I want to stop being CUbe◘.
