1: THE BEGINNING
In the city of Paleone where everything is all about money. Those rich keeps on being rich, while those who are under privilege keeps on going down. Money, that is what matters the most.
Meanwhile, in the mansion house of the Jone Family, Kyle is busy playing with his Xbox. “KYLE! COME DOWN FOR A SEC. HONEY! WE’RE LEAVING!”, his mom shouted “Coming”, he said with a bored tone. He went down and saw some of their maids putting his parents’ luggage in their car. “Oh. My baby Kyle, I’m gonna miss you” Said his mom. “Stop it Nami. I told you stop treating him as if he’s a child.”
If his mother spoils him, his father is very hard on treating him.
“Hush! You’re being mean again. We won’t be able to see him for a long time.” She said and hug her son. “You spoil him too much, that’s the reason why he keeps on locking on his room and be lazy all his life…Let’s go. We’ll be late.” Said his father and went straight to their car. “Don’t mind your father, Kyle. He’ll gonna miss you, I know.” She said and followed Kyle’s father. Kyle couldn’t do anything but just to smile and wave good bye on his parents. As his parents’ car leave, he closes their huge door and left a deep sigh as he looked on their huge but empty house. “Cool”, he said loud enough for his self.
“Victory!” all day long, he doesn’t do anything but just to play on his Xbox and browse his social media accounts.
*bzzt*bzzt his phone vibrated and he saw his friend, Alex’s message “I’m coming over.”
“What? He’s coming? Why?” Kyle didn’t reply back and finished playing his Xbox. After he played he went down to the kitchen to personally tell the maids to prepare. Right when he went to the kitchen, the door opened and Alex came in.
“What? You’re here already? You just texted me like almost 20 minutes ago.” “I know. I was outside your village.” Alex said calmly. “Wait. You aren’t waiting for me, aren’t you, Kyle? Ahhh how sweet of you” Alex said teasingly and rode on Kyle’s back. “You wish” Said Kyle and forced Alex to get off his back. Alex kept on teasing Kyle when the maid came holding a tray of foods. “Here is the food you requested, sir” said the maid to Kyle. Kyle was embarrassed in front of Alex as he already knew that Kyle prepared the foods for Alex. “Oh! Thank you Miss. I appreciate that you prepared this without your young master told you so.” Alex said emphasizing the young master and glancing at Kyle. “No sir, he told me to prepare those” the maid said that made Kyle even more feel embarrassed. “Okay. Okay. That’s enough. Thank you for preparing this food. You may go back there.” Kyle said to the maid and she immediately go back in the kitchen. “Didn’t wait for me huh?” Said Alex and went up the stairs to go to Kyle’s room.
For being best friends since childhood, they surely know each other rather than their parents who are business people and having no enough time for them, they treat each other like brothers.
“Why did you come here? Miss me?” Kyle asked boastfully and sat down on the sofa in his bedroom. “Nope. I just felt like you’re the one who misses me” Alex answered with a food in his mouth and laughed. “Honestly, I knew that your parents won’t be around for a long time and so is my parents, so I decided to come over and stay for the time being” Alex answered honestly and grab another bite on the food he’s eating. “You don’t plan to literally live here temporarily, don’t you?” Kyle asked unsurely.
“Nope. That actually is my plan.”
“What? Seriously, that’s my plan” Alex said when he saw that Kyle isn’t convinced. “Oh really?” Said Kyle with one of his eyebrows up and Alex just nod proudly. “Then where is your luggage or things?” when Alex realized that he didn’t brought up his things but the food that the maid gave, he rapidly went down stairs to get his things. “i***t” Kyle said to his self and just shake his head.
After a while, Alex came with a heavy breath and sweat are all over his face and neck. “Gosh! You didn’t really help me huh?” He said and faced the aircon. “You didn’t ask me to.” Kyle said and continued playing his guitar. “You’re such a good friend, Kyle. Really.” Alex said with a sarcasm, “I know” when Alex heard this, he removes his shirt and throw it to Kyle. “You should’ve let the maids do it” “Nahh. I’m not like you. I won’t let the ladies do it for me”. If Kyle is a man with no gentleness, Alex is a man that has full of it.
“Until when will they be not around?” Kyle asked referring to Alex’s parents. “A week or two, I guess.” Alex answered. “How about your parents?” He asked back. “I don’t know. Half a month? No one knows” Kyle answered unsurely. “Then, I’ll be staying with you until then” “What? No, I won’t allow it” Kyle said with full authority. “I didn’t ask for your permission”
“I can imagine what will our life be. We’ll play Xbox, eat, play guitar, sing, and sleep together!” Alex said with excitement. “No. As soon as your parents come home, you’ll leave my house as well.” Said Kyle and turned his back on Alex, but Alex just ignored him. “And oh! Why don’t we do bar hopping? It’s been a long time since we’ve done it” He said lastly. “I said no---… did you say bar hopping?” And Kyle looked at Alex which is currently smiling wide at him. “If that’s the case, then you can stay as long as you want.” He said and grinned to his friend.
As the night came, they get ready and went out of the huge house and started their bar hopping.
