Chapter 5: Playing games (I): Set up
(I just realized that Lillith's wife from my other book and this mc have the same name)
Number: Hey, Ms. Fluffy, your stuff's in the mailbox.
Me: I think we're already best friends, Mr. Sarcastic survey man.
Number: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think they'll like you, especially her.
Me: Who?
Number: Just go get it and text the number after.

I looked over and saw Frey sleeping, and I decided it wasn't time to wake her up just yet. I left the room for a minute and returned with two small boxes. Even though it had literally only been a minute, I decided it was time to wake Frey up. I leaned down close to Frey's ear and whispered in the most seductive tone I could manage. "Frey, it's time to wake up, sleepyhead." Then I blew on her ear, sat down, and set a timer on my phone for 10 minutes.
Within 30 seconds, Frey's eye opened, and she sat up. "Oh, that was faster than I remember." Her face was completely red as she turned and stared daggers at me. "Did you just give me a wet wake-up?" I laughed. "Of course I did. You're the only one I know that it works on so easily. And it's the best way to make sure you actually get up." Frey continued to stare. "Don't get mad at me; you're the one who has wet dreams when someone whispers in your ear."
"That only happens when it's you, you ass." My smile faded as I blankly looked at Frey. "Whomp whomp." "Did you just fucking say whomp whomp? I'll show you whomp whomp!" Frey jumped out of bed and was about to start her assault, but got distracted by what was in my hands. "Oh, they came." "Yep." Frey sighed, grabbed her phone, and sat next to me.
Me: Okay, what do we do now?
Number: Open the boxes, duh.
Me: We're not that dumb. You told me to text so we could walk through the steps.
Number: Whatever, just unbox the one with your name.
Me: Dude, this is just jewelry.
Number: It's pretty, right? Even if you don't like it, it's what you use to play the game.
Me: No, we like it. But how in the hell are we supposed to play a game on this?
Number: Bluetooth, duh.
Me: Oh, that makes more sense than trying to plug it in.
Number: Be careful, though. The first device it connects to will be permanently synced to it and won't connect to anything else.
Me: Got it.
"Frey, let's get this done so we can play the game already." I opened up my phone's settings, went to my Bluetooth, and thought of something.
Me: How do we turn the thing on or charge it?
Number: Finally, a smart question. The answer for both is body heat.
Me: How does that even work?
Number: Idk.
Me: How do you not know? Don't you work for the company that made this?
Number: I advise connecting one at a time so you don't accidentally connect to the wrong one.
"Frey, you go first, you know, just in case something bad happens." Frey glared at me before grabbing a necklace out of her box. The design of the necklace was a lariat choker. It was black with a silver gem, and when worn, the gem would rest a little above the middle of her chest, resting on the slope of her massive breasts. "Hey, you like what you see?" Frey giggled as she pressed her boobs together. "Hell no, I was looking at the gem." Frey smirked. "Likely story, you pervert. I bet you read those stories about these people who get systems that make them stronger with sex." I blushed as Frey was spot on. "A-And you don't?" Frey looked at her phone. "Oh, it popped up."
Frey clicked the new option on her pairable devices, and a prompt appeared.
[Are you sure it belongs to you?]
[yes/No]
She sighed and clicked yes. "This process is taking too long." Her phone said it was downloading files and the gem on Frey's necklace seemed to glow and shimmer a little, and I noticed and stared at it to see if I was seeing it correctly. "Rika, you're staring at them again. If you don't like what you see, then you're obviously jealous of them." My face contorted with annoyance. "Like I'd ever be jealous of back pain, and besides, those melons of yours are out of season." "Mine aren't melons; don't be upset because you got stuck with a pair of apples. My dense, soft, and chewy pomelos are in season right now." "How in the hell do you know they're chewy? They're probably sour and bitter too." "Oh really? Wanna taste one to find out?" Frey lifted her breasts a little as if presenting them to me.
"Yeah, sure, why not." Everything went silent for a few seconds before we both broke into laughter. "Alright, alright, enough fruit talk," I said, trying to stifle my giggles. Frey looked at her phone and saw that the download was complete. She eagerly opened the app to start playing the new game. I was about to start the same process when I heard Frey. "Oh…" "What's wrong?" I asked, noticing the disappointment in Frey's expression. "It's a pet simulator game. I like it, and it's cute, but... I just wasn't expecting this." I giggled. "I told you that some grandma told me that she plays it with her friends. What did you expect it to be, an MMORPG or something?" "True."
I finished my setup and placed my new brooch on my shoulder for now.

Me: Yo, we finished setting up.
Number: Good, have fun, and text me if you need anything. Also, try to complete as many challenges as you can; apparently, the higher the completion rate, the better the reward when the servers go down. Oh, and the administrators are very helpful. If they give you a mission, do it, no matter how weird it is, because it fills the completion bar by a lot and gives your pet a special food that boosts its growth percentage.
Me: Okay? Also, do you play the game? What animal did you get? I got a fox, and Frey got a wolf.
Number: Yes, I play. I was one of the first players. I have a spider. I just finished my completion rate a week ago due to not getting any administrator attention. Luckily, once I maxed out my completion rate, I got a message from a few administrators. The one that's been the most helpful is [SilkWeavingMama].
Me: Well, of course, she's been helpful; her name makes it seem like she likes spiders.
Number: True. Now start the game. Maybe we can meet up sometime. You're fun to talk to. My name is Geomi, by the way.
Me: Oh, you're a girl. Nice to meet you Geomi. We can plan something. After this week though because I have to grind the game.
Geomi: That's understandable.
Me: By the way earlier when you said that they'd like me, especially her. What did you mean? The administrators?
Geomi: Yes, I had an interaction with a...certain administrator. She seems like she'd be the kind of person to stick around and help you like [SilkWeavingMama] did for me. She's a little strange but she's nice; her name had something to do with the sun, I don't remember the details though.
Me: Thanks for the info Geomi. I'll keep in touch and text you next week. I use this number, right?
Geomi: 800-588-2300
Me: Thanks~
