Mia left me behind after gives me a final bow, I suddenly feel stupid for coming here, but I really want to see his face, someone who actually tear me up from just looking at his picture.
I sighed and sit on my desk, I turn on the PC, there are only two screens, means only two PCs per person? That’s a low amount, I thought everyone here was at least able to handle three to five screens.
My fingers automatically checked the program they are using and the PC spec, the program was slow and doesn’t meet my expectation at all, but the PC spec is not lame at all. Its pretty good, and it is meeting my expectation though not as strong as my custom build PC.
“That new bitch actually got the nerve to ask about Mr. Raiver.”
Gossiping? While working? I rolled my eyes, but it didn’t shock me, I know I would be somehow bully, when starting out as a newbie, it tends to draw attention from the bullies.
I turned off the PC and leave, before I became even more irritated. But a woman suddenly stops me from walking ahead, she looks okay, blonde hair, thick lips, medium skin color, with brownish eye color, her attire is pretty sexy? She used a black tank top and a light pink blazer and a short skirt.
“You should know your place.” She glared at me as she open her mouth.
“Did I offend you somehow?” I don’t know why she needs to remind me of my place, I’m a nobody here, I know pretty much of how I’m worth otherwise I’ll be on my way to see the master of this fake heaven by now.
“You are not someone Mr. Raiver will ever look at, so stop dreaming about it.” She snapped at me, showing her displease and from her look I know she was looking down at me in all aspect.
“Okay?” “And how is that related to you?” I scratched my head.
I’m pretty annoyed right now; hope she could just leave me alone.
“You bitch!!!” She raised her hand to slap me, but I stop it by catching her wrist before she could hit me.
Her hand trembles, struggling to release itself against my hand, but for me her strength are nothing.
“I’m pretty annoyed today, so I hope you can leave me alone.” I glared at her and she flinched, she must not have expected me to be able to glare back at her like that, but I have no intention to become the bully target here.
I release her wrist and walk away. I could hear some swearing behind me, but I could care less about her. I go down to the 6th floor, the staircases are certainly too long for a floor, it’s like a going down from the 3rd floor to the 1st floor. The ceiling are super high for every floor, though I think its much lower for the 7th floor.
The 6th floor sign are shopping district to the right and Wing City to the left. I take a stroll to the shopping district, the building is on the left and right, the shops are just like a common elite shopping district, each of them were build by transparent glass, there are branded items too, from clothes, bags, shoes, cosmetics, house necessity, everything seems to be available here, the one that caught my attention is the electronic shop, it has notebook and PC for sure, so I decided to check what they have for sale.
“Welcome.” A greeting come from a worker in the shop, he looks Asian, though his skin are pretty dark color, black hair, black eyes, wearing a black shirt with white tie and white pant.
“I’m looking for notebook or PC?” I said.
“We have the best quality for notebook, please let me show you.” He took me to the 2nd floor, and showed me the notebooks sample. I could see that every brand out there is available here. I read through the spec that’s written right besides the sample. Finally a notebook caught my interest; it’s a new type from my favorite brand, Orian, “How much is this one?” I asked.
“You have an excellent eye, that is our best seller right now, its S$250.”
250? That means 125 million dollar? For a notebook? That’s ridiculous. To the point I might sell my notebook at home, it probably worth more than this since its custom made.
Noticing that how a cheap thing could worth millions here, I’m not surprise if there are a lot of people suffering in this place because they had no money to feed themselves.
It’s better to use the money wisely here, otherwise I might not survive here much longer that I thought I could.
“Its too expensive.” I blurted it out without a second thought.
“Pardon?” The worker asked. His expression suddenly changed, “Are you a new here?”
“Yes?” I answered.
He turns away from me and walk towards a security guard, they seems to discuss about something then they came back together,
“Drag this beggar out.” The man said with a disgust look on his face.
“Excuse me?” I was too shocked to say anything other than that. But the big guy pulled my arm and practically dragging me and throw me out from the store, then he goes back insides without a second glance.
“Wow.” I’m speechless. But I could hear the giggling voice from passerby, some shopkeeper are showing me the same disgust look as the man did before.
I’m too stunned to get mad, its just a wow experience, though I won’t say I never experience this before, I was a beggar in the past. My expression suddenly darkened when I remembered about my dark childhood.
