Chapter 16

All I could see in front of me was a deep blue vortex. I felt the wind blow my hair gently as I fell. It was cold inside here. It felt like I was cooled down by a fan, though there is no fan. It felt like I was riding Space Mountain from Disneyland now. However, there is no darkness and neither any stars were there. I was falling down down down a deep hole. It actually felt like I was experiencing Alice in Wonderland, one of my all time favourite stories. I wasn't following any white rabbit though into a strange land! No. I was falling into my own tale. Whew. This fall is taking so long! Where am I? Where is Della? I hope she wouldn't recognise that I have disappeared! And what about my parents? I hope the same thing too.

For goodness sakes, how long till this fall ends?!! I gave a yawn. That's it. This was hella - boring. My vision blurred. I was so tired that without another thought of what was going to happen, my eyes snapped shut. Everything in front of me went white.

My eyes immediately flashed open. I looked up and noticed that there were a portion of grass on my body. I took my hands out with force to brush them off. I stood up and saw the shining golden sun above my head. Looking towards me was what made my mouth water with shock.

In front of me was the most gorgeous city ever! Everything in this city was shaded with cyan blue colour. It was not even a city, in fact. Was this a cyber city?!! NO. It was more than that. As I continued exploring, I saw a board on one of the buildings, saying, "Welcome to the virtual world of LoveHacked!". 

I couldn't believe my own eyes. What was I doing here? Why do I even need to be here? Is it just me who is seeing this - or. NO - WAY. My eyes widened in shock when I saw thousands of cars and people crowded in the very cyberpunk world. I saw people who were on Nintendo Switches and the road here was made out of glass. Everything seemed crystal clear - expect for me.

I didn't know what to expect. What on earth was I doing here? Am I seriously being shit right now?!! I bet I would expect that's crazy. I mean I don't have any reason as to why I'm here right now. Probably it was a mistake to send me here. For god's sakes who knows?!!

Five minutes later, I was growing tired, hungry and thirsty. I was seeking for food, water and shelter. There was no other place to hide. No one to protect me at all. I was stuck here, forever. Or not.

Far off in the distance, I heard a man's voice yell, "Hello? Is anybody here?". My eyes widened with shock. Without any other thought as to where I was going, I immediately sprinted towards the direction the voice was coming from.

At first, I saw no one.

The next thing I saw was a tiny blue boy. His body, clothes, pants and even accessories were all completely blue like lush. My eyes widened even more. It was as if I was looking at some strange weirdo without even recognising who he was!

"W - WHO ARE YOU?!!" I asked in shock. My eyes felt like they were about to explode. "Hello. Don't be afraid, little girl," the blue boy replied with a sweet and gentle voice. "Now that we are here, safe and sound, it is time that I'd introduce myself. My name is Little Blue Boy! It is nice to meet you!".

"Haha... it is nice to meet you too, Little Blue Boy," I laughed nervously as I suddenly realised where I was. "So, I have two questions. Why am I here and were you the one who sent me here?". The blue boy looked at me with a gentle grin spreading on his face and said, "It is a long story. And no, I didn't send you here. You must be hungry, young lady. Let's talk at the tavern at the Town Square, OK? I will order you whatever you wish for."

My eyes widened even more. Oh boy was I interested? OH, YES!!! Of course I was. In fact, who could say NO to this tempting offer? Whatever. Without any other words, I immediately replied, "YES!!!".

After five minutes of exhausting walking, we finally reached the Town Square. I followed Little Blue Boy wherever he went cause of course, I don't know this place and all the directions/rules.

We stopped at a brown cabin. When I got inside, I was immediately captivated by the smell of marshmallows in the thin air. I was obsessed with the warmth of this place, especially how orange it looks inside. It was so cosy. I felt like wearing a fluffy white coat but even if I did, I would melt away like an ice cream in the sun.

We sat down on a table for two only and ordered two cups of coffee as well as cookies and chicken wings. After we made our orders, we went straight into talking.

"So, what made me come here?" I asked Little Blue Boy as he was fiddling with his little blue fingers like a baby.

"Um - long story. Do you want to hear?" the blue boy responded to me.

"Of course, yes! I need information!"

"Ok, then! Listen carefully, all right?"

"Okie dokie!"

And soon, when the blue boy was ready, he cleared his throat and began.

"This place is called LoveHacked. It is a virtual place from a social media with the same name. It used to be a joyful and happy place. People would interact with each other all day and just sit on their chairs non stop talking to each other about their life. It was just amazing! The social media opened in 2008. I was a co-worker at this factory in this world. Everything seemed pretty fine. Even I have a LoveHacked account! Well, of course I have one. I'm one of the owners here. The same process continued - until 2020. A monster called the LoveHacker has woken yet again. We don't know where he lives or how he came to life. We have never developed this character. It was just - there. Like for real. His job or hobby is to steal other people's accounts. He is currently working with another unknown LoveHacked user. This legend has been spread worldwide but maybe we were wrong. Maybe the legends and stories were true. Maybe the LoveHacker is real indeed. We heard that the LoveHacker has taken your account and that is why we sent you here. Out of all the other million LoveHacked users, you were the chosen one. Now, I'm warning you that this is your only opportunity to save your LoveHacked account, Zoe. Listen really carefully. This is very important. To rescue your precious account, we have given you the opportunity to stop and kill the LoveHacker within four days. If you do stop the LoveHacker, your account will return to you, permanently and you will save every other LoveHacked account worldwide. If you do NOT complete this task in time, your life and the heart of LoveHacked will be lost forever. It's either your life or his."

I thought Little Blue Boy was joking at first but when I saw the concerned look on his face, I sighed and gave a grin. 'Oh, wow. That's uh, fantastic!" I cried out. I didn't want to do the same thing as what happened on Monday cause that ended up being a trashy result.

"I was out with my friends, Della and Sukah to eat dinner together at a new restaurant that has recently just opened called Om Om's Valley. And yep, I know that name sounded funny. In fact, to top it all off, this is no ordinary restaurant! Oh no no no! Instead, this restaurant includes a playground for kids and a casino for adults! Adults like me. Bruh! At first, when I walked into the restaurant with my best friends, the first thing I noticed was the space. "W - WHAT THE?!! HOW IS THIS? WHY - IS IT SO ENORMOUS?!!!" I asked in shock. My friends Sukah and Della stared at me and Della immediately rolled her eyes at me. Yo, girl! Chill! "Girl, are you seriously out of your mind?!! It's only a restaurant, you idiot! Have you not been to a restaurant before?!!" Della shouted at me as I put my hand over my mouth and gasped. I slapped my face in frustration. Doesn't Della get what I mean?!! OH MY GAWD!!! "Ugh! Della, you idiot! Arrgh! I don't mean that I don't know what a restaurant is! What I meant by is the size of this - HUMONGOUS PLACE!!!" I yelled as loud as I could to Della that even all the guests inside the restaurant could hear my violent voice! Everyone stopped talking and looked at me. Great. Now I'm the one that has caused this whole entire mess. It was all because of Della. This is so stupid, unfair and frustrating! All of a sudden, just as I was about to have a little stare at Della, I noticed that somebody was saying, "GET OUT OF THE WAY!!! Somebody is not welcome here!" and soon, I saw a man wearing a chef hat and a white suit walking - towards me?!! Oh no! What is he going to do now? Kill me?!! Hurt me?!! Cheat on me?!! Well, of course he is not going to cheat on me because I've never met him before and became his boyfriend but still, it's a possible possibility. Oh, what am I saying? My thoughts were taken aback when suddenly, I gasped when an angry chef was staring in front of me. I jumped in fright and screamed as loud as I could possibly can. I didn't care if this was a restaurant or not but I just had to scream at his angry and disgusting look on his face. Finally, the chef had had enough. "All right! That's enough screaming from you, miss! YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE!!! GET OUT!!!" his rage was so uncontrollable that his face went completely red and he almost exploded whilst kicking me out of the fancy restaurant. REEEEEEEE!!!! How rude! When I got up again, I watched as my friends were about to thank the chef for their welcome. Really? That's it? All I get is being hurt whilst they get to enter this expensive restaurant?!! I was now in flames. Revenge, girls. Revenge. "Now, I am terribly sorry for that really unhesitating conversation, my dear ladies. Please come in," the chef replied cheerfully with a bow. I gasped and watched speechlessly as my friends rushed excitedly inside the restaurant. My jaw dropped. I was all alone, abandoned and friendless."

"Zoe? Zoe? Hello? Zoe!" My thoughts on the flashback ended as I looked around to find out who was calling me. It was Little Blue Boy who was shaking me up while I was laid down on the table. Wow. How rude! I shouldn't say that out loud because the blue boy did seem really kind but - I thought it was all a legend.

I was so shocked that I gave a nervous laugh. "Haha. Sorry! I was just sleeping! What were we doing again?" I asked as I realised that we were still sitting here. But Little Blue Boy seemed pretty serious. I could tell by his expression. He grimaced at me and gave a little sigh.

"OMG, I'M SERIOUS!!! Wait, I shouldn't scream. I just realised. Ugh. Well, I guess now that we're here, you might need some rest after eating," Little Blue Boy spoke as he took a gentle sip or two from his coffee.

"Yeah. It's been kind of a stressful day today and I totally need some rest. Thank you so much!"

"No problem! Come now. Follow me. I'll show you where your apartment is."

"Oh, you are just the sweetest person I've ever met!"

Little Blue Boy blushed as I said this. He paused for a moment. Uh oh. Was I meant to say that?!! I'M PROBABLY DEAD BY NOW!!! GOD, HELP ME!!!

"Omg! Why, thank you - uh what's your name again?"

"The name's Zoe. Nice to meet you!"

"Nice to meet you too, Zoe."

I smiled at him as I took my last few sips of coffee and went out of the tavern. I realised that it was getting dark when I got out. Thousands of stars were above us, all shining in the night sky. Little Blue Boy then came out of the tavern and without a moment to be lost, I raced with him towards the apartments buildings.

"Here we are! Your new room!" Little Blue Boy announced as we walked into my room. I was so stunned by the time I felt the coolness of the fan on the ceiling. I loved pink. It was my favourite colour. Everything in this room was unexpectedly all pink! I didn't know what to say. How do they know my favourite colour?!! Or did they just randomly assigned me a random colour room? Who knows? Must be magic!

"How can I ever thank you?"

"You don't need to thank me! This is where you will live for the next four days! You only have 95 hours left. Hurry up! We are giving you one last chance to save yourself! That's what you need to do in return!"

"All right, whatever you say. Ugh!"

The blue boy rolled his eyes at me and left the room in silence. I was so embarrassed that I had to shower. In fact, I was so dirty today and never even gotten a chance to shower. As droplets of water fell on my entire body, I was starting to think about my friends. I really missed the smiles on their faces back in the day. Perhaps they were starting to miss me too. I couldn't bear the thought of looking back at the good childhood memories we had and experienced in our lives. My brain wasn't allowing me to focus. I had to focus on all my memories. All of them.

How Della got the biggest surprise ever...

"After maths, I walked out of the classroom, only to run into my best friend Della outside! She has beautiful brown skin, sapphire eyes, matte lips, a brown bun and she is wearing her sports uniform. I ran to her to embrace her with a BFF hug. "Hi, Della!" I screamed with happiness bursting through my chest. "Hi, Zoe!" she screamed back. I can tell she is super excited. "I HAVE SOME EXCITING NEWS FOR YOU!!! FOLLOW ME!!!" "Uhhhhh - okay, I guess," I replied to her with a nervous laugh. I followed her out of the main building and she was so quick that I nearly fell over and injured myself halfway there. "AND TA-DA!!!" she screamed with joy, excited for me to see what was going on. "WOW! YOU GOT INTO THE SCHOOL SOCCER MATCH FOR 2020!!! I'M SO PROUD OF YOU, DELLA!!!" I screamed with joy as tears fell down my face. "OMG! YOU ACTUALLY GOT IN FROM LAST YEAR!!!" We both celebrated by chatting with each other and playing soccer games for the whole recess. We laughed and cried all at the same time."

How I first met the new girl Sukah on my first day back at Brooks Autumn High School...

"I looked into the mirror and tears started to pour down my face. Was I unpopular just for that? I thought. Oh, well. This is it. The worst day of my life has begun. I continued crying sarcastically until a girl with purple hair and dark blue eyes walked in the room. She was wearing the same uniform as me. She didn't move. She just stared at me. I stared at her in horror. Was she going to be told off for this? I thought. The next thing I knew was that she was walking towards me. Oh no! Was I in danger? No. There's no way that thought is happening. Every step the girl took, she was heading closer and closer to me. Great. Now her eyes are more creepier than ever. I stared at her for a hot moment and at last, I was about to scream when suddenly, she said,"Hello. What's your name?" Oh. I thought that she was gonna kill me but instead, she seems nice to me. "Oh. Hello. My name is Zoe Grey. What's yours?" I shivered while I was doing my speech. We stared at each other for another minute until finally, the girl responded," My name is Sukah. Nice to meet you, Zoe." "Oh, it's nice to meet you too, Sukah," I replied with a little smile spreading on my face followed by a nervous laugh. "What brings you here?" Sukah continued. "Oh. I'm just going to the bathroom. What about you?" I replied to her. "Yes, me too!" Sukah replied back to me. I was very pleased that I had gotten into this conversation that I didn't realize that I had to get back to science class to watch those boring students do their boring experiment. "Well, it was nice meeting you, Zoe. See you around!" Sukah replied. "You too, Sukah," I replied back with a grin. "You too."

How I shared a happy experience with my ex - boyfriend, Marcus...

"Enjoyed your first day back at high school, Zoe?" I ran towards the voice to see who was calling to me. "Oh - hi, Marcus!" I bumped into him and recognised his face and voice. "I brought ya a rose! Do you like it?" Marcus asked me as I leaned against the wall. "Y - Yes! I LOVE IT! Thank you so much, Marcus!" I screamed with joy. Marcus is my boyfriend. We've been dating ever since I was thirteen. And now, here he is, standing in front of my locker with cute eyes, mocha skin, dark black hair and wearing a shirt with pants on. I - I just think that he is the HOTTEST boy I have ever met in my entire life! "Marcus! I have some amazing news to share you! Watch and listen or we are BREAKING UP! Understand?" I told him, half sternly half silly. But he said nothing. He just stood there, staring at me like I was a wrenched fool. Are you serious, Marcus? "Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah." He shook his head at me. To be honest, how many "woahs" are there coming out of his mouth? Five? Anyways, moving on. "I will do anything to my girlfriend, even if it involves jumping out of a plane high in the sky." Awww. That's so sweet, Marcus! "Ok so today, I got five stars in my creative story writing piece! OMG! But it's from Frozen and I tried not to copyright the whole entire movie but I just had to! I swear!" I replied. But instead of Marcus trying to yell at me, he instead responded this. "Zoe, great job! I knew I could count on you!" cried Marcus as he ran to hug me. His hugs are so warm, I thought. They make my eyes swell up with tears. I - I just have feelings for him, that's all. "Anyways, I will meet you at LoveHacked, Zoe!" Marcus replied with a big grin spreading on his face. "No problem! I'll see ya real soon! Bye, Marcus!" I yelled as I rushed to hug him again. "I will see you later, princess!" he replied with a smile. And as he rushed down the hall, he was a little clumsy and tripped over the slope! I couldn't help but laugh at him so much that - oh no! He caught me! I stopped laughing. He glared at me for a moment and then started laughing at me! OH MY GOD!"

And finally, my almost perfect boyfriend that has been keeping a big and heartbreaking secret from me...

"After a romantic dinner, me and Benjamin went out for a walk in the park. We saw birds in the pond, we came across a bridge and we even saw birds that were in love with each other dearly which kinda represents us but I don't know if that's right. It kinda is. But - too bad we're not birds! Cause if we are, then we'll be famous! Oops. Did I say it right? Anyways, we stopped halfway to rest. I was out of breath cause I did jog most of the track. We sat on a royal white bench, talking to each other about the date. "So, how was it?" Benjamin asked me, again with the most sweetest voice of his. "It was wonderful! I loved it! Oh, thank you, Benjamin!" I replied, happily. "Now, I just wanna do something I wish I could do for a very long time," he said, gently. "And what's - that?" I asked. "You'll find out," Benjamin whispered. And he slowly started closer to me and closed his eyes. I had no idea what we were doing until I too began to close my eyes and - we kissed. I wanted to say to Benjamin "Ewww!!! Gross!!!" but today was different. I knew he would do that. I wanted to do that again. My eyes sparkled to Benjamin's. Benjamin smiled at me, kindly. "Goodbye, Benjamin," I replied. "I'll see you on Monday, cause Friday is Valentine's Day holidays." "Yeah. I'll see you on Monday, hopefully," Benjamin spoke. And as we say goodbye, we escaped back to our homes, still with dreamy eyes. Benjamin was doing the same but he soon hatched an evil plan in his own mind."

As I looked back at all my favourite childhood memories, tears came running down from my eye to my cheek. I missed my friends. For real. I shouldn't have offended Benjamin. I shouldn't have offended Marcus. I shouldn't have gotten LoveHacked. I shouldn't have left Della or Sukah or even my parents. I was so shit that I didn't even talk to anyone anymore. Instead, after I took a freezing shower, I rushed to my bed and cried tears of sadness. Losing everyone felt like my heart aching slowly. I couldn't take this pain anymore. I couldn't go to sleep. I was so distressed.

God, I have three last words to tell you. Please, help me...

Hey, guys! Another LONG chapter of LoveHacked but this was Friday's late chapter! Another chapter will be coming out next Friday! Pls give me a break. I'm halfway done writing this... ^_^
