New Life Online 51 Team Building

It's still dark outside, maybe because it is still too early. I prepared breakfast for the girls while preparing for my long ride later. Well, I hope we get to have fun.

As soon as I finished preparing, I woke the girls up for them to take their breakfast.

"Hey Bro, are you going somewhere? You're dressed and it's still too early in the morning," Thank you for noticing my dear sister.

"Well, I'll meet my friends from the game in real life. Isn't that great? And because they live really far from here it takes four to five hours to get there via bus. Kind of far but I think it's worth it. I will also buy some groceries because we're running out of food" We seriously need to buy food or we'll starve to death here.

"Oh, that's nice. Tell your friends I said hi," She said while eating her meal.

"Don't forget to take your lunch, ok? I'll be back before the sunset. See you guys later," I bid my farewell.

-The Road to Sector X City-

I took the bus and for some reason, I fell asleep. I just realized that the driver is talking to me...

"Hey boy, we are already here. You should wake up and go where you need to go," Ugh... jeez. This is the first time I went to sleep without the game. It's kinda nice. I should take a nap from time to time.

"Oh, thanks, Sir," I stood up and went outside.

It's already hot outside. I checked my phone to see the time and it's already ten am. I still have two hours to spend and it's for buying supplies and groceries because we meet around twelve to a family restaurant nearby.

I took out my umbrella to protect me from the sunlight. That's right I use an umbrella for daily basis. I checked the shops around but I'm really not that familiar with this place.

I went inside every shop and bought what I needed and also the cheaper ones. It's not good to spend too much on something you can buy cheaper with the same quality as the expensive ones. From veggies to meat and another type of groceries we needed, I bought all of them. And now I'm currently carrying different kinds of bags of groceries.

After the shopping, I've just got a message from Elou that they're already at the family restaurant. So I went to the shop he just told me about using Doodle map app.

"Hey Scy, there you are! Why do you carry so many bags? It's a meetup, remember? Elou approached me and he really looks the same as his avatar in the game. Well technically, we all are. He also wears fashionable jeans and shirt.

"Well, I arrived early so I decided to buy groceries," I wear only simple clothes because I'm not really into fashion Bla Bla Bla... I kinda feel like I'm out of place.

"Let me help you with that. Let's go inside. We are really hungry from traveling," He helped me carry one of the bags I'm carrying.

"Thank you,"

-WcDonalds-

We entered a well-known family restaurant named "WcDonalds". I remember when I was a kid, we mostly eat at this place because I love their chicken fillet. It was really delicious. I hope they still have that today.

Lili and Akko are already waiting at one of the tables. It's really weird seeing them not wearing their magical clothes.

"h.e.l.lo there Scy, go sit here with us. You are really carrying a lot of bags," Akko suggested.

"Thanks. h.e.l.lo, Akko and Lili," I said my greetings.

"You can't call me Lili. We are strangers outside the game," Hmm, how should I respond to that?

"Don't mind her Scy, she's just shy, that's all." Well, she still looks cute, doesn't matter if she's sn.o.bby.

"No problem. Where is Elou though?"

"Oh, he is ordering. So just relax, ok?" Relax, she said... if I don't have my chicken fillet, I won't be able to relax.

After a while, he arrived and he brought us our foods. They ordered fried chicken with rice and some french fries. The smell of the food is really good, it boosts your appet.i.te. No chicken fillet but it's their treat so who am I to be choosy... We ate our meals really fast that we didn't even get the chance to talk about anything.

"That was a good meal. Wasn't it?" Elou asked.

"Yeah, it was really good. Anyway, should we talk about something? We came here to meet, and not just eat a satisfying meal," Akko suggested.

"Oh yeah, we still don't know your name Scy. What's your full name?" Akko asked.

"My name is Aries Kim, 20 years old and because I just woke up from a coma, I am planning to enroll in one of the colleges nearby later with my Sis. How about you guys?" Not so good introduction but not bad either.

"My name is Ethan Louis, also 20 years old and currently studying HRM in college with Akko. We are aiming for the same goal and it's to manage our own restaurant," Elou replied. That's a good plan. I should also plan for my future.

"My name is Ayako Minami, also 20 years old and someone already spoilt my plan for the future. But you can call me Akko," What are the odds that the three of us have the same age.

"My name is Liliana Minami, and the rest is none of your business," Well, that's short. But I think it's good enough that she's talking.

After that, we talked about our lives and other minor stuff. We also visited some arcade shops where we can play arcade games, stuff animals dispensing games and dance and music games. We also went to a karaoke shop where we can sing to our heart's content. It was really fun. Even Lili sang some songs and she was really great, I can say that both Akko and Lili just look like idols of some sort. I also got some stuff animal prizes which I gave to Lili and for some reason, she took it and said nothing. She's really weak to cute things.

Ugh... my shoulder hurts carrying these bags of groceries. I think I made the wrong choice of buying them before meeting with them.

"It was fun, huh. I never thought I could enjoy doing this kind of stuff that most teenagers do," Akko sounded like she was already a matured girl but she really enjoyed singing too.

"Yeah, taking a break from the game wasn't that bad," Elou said.

"How about you Lili, did you enjoy your time with Scy?" Akko asked Lili.

"Hmp..." She just pouted but also blushed after looking away.

"So I think we will meet again later. Thanks for the meal and you guys take care!" We bid our farewell.

It was a short team building but it was fun. We really managed our time and enjoyed what we were doing. It's already three pm, I should go home.
