My Upside Down World's
Paused

Tit

Tit

Tit

The sound of my time notice had started to sound, and I only had about five minutes left.

I need to be able to pick quickly, or I'll run out of time and slide back down, where I started.

I took a swing to jump towards the flag,

One

Two

Hup, though,

Teets...teet...teet.

The pot on my leg disappeared and my leg came back again.

The sound of low boisterous applause rang out and the longer it got closer, the closer it got,

Pop!

"Congratulations Keira, you've made it through this challenge at level six, I hope that in the next level you're consistent with your choices because it will help you get out of the game immediately." Said Audrey who changed her face to Iria.

The notification music had appeared, and a red envelope floated and lit up before me,

The tring!

"Congratulations! You have risen to level 7. Expand your coins and you get closer to your true love!"

The splash!

The envelope floated, stopped at the top right of my head, and shimmered there.

Suddenly I was back at my house, and Aunt Jemima welcomed me.

I saw my coin, 1 coin left.

Aarrgghh! I have to collect it back. My body did not feel tired, but my normal human heart and side felt that way.

That night I fell asleep, probably tired. I dreamed I was chased by a group of pot-men who were brandishing axes at me. And it was noisy because they all rang duk, duk, and duk.

I woke up with sweat flooding my body, "A horrible dream." Say to myself. I got out of my bed and picked up a glass of cold water in the kitchen, but suddenly

"Let's!"

Aunt Jemima with hair in the booth and wearing a white nightgown surprised me as she appeared suddenly in front of me.

"Auntie! You surprised me!" My speech.

Aunt Jemima chuckled, "I'm sorry Miss Kei, hehehe." The answer.

"Did I wake you?" Ask aunt Jemima.

I downed my drink and shook my head, "No aunt, I had a bad dream." My answer.

"The dream is usually a reflection of your heart's desire and anxiety, miss." Aunt Jemima said.

I pondered on Aunt Jemima's remark, "It's actually my fear." I answered, and took the flag with Ryu in my hand.

I played the flag in my hand.

Aunt Jemima seemed to read my thoughts, "He's not the one you want to take, why don't you take it based on your heart's will?" Ask aunt Jemima.

I sighed, "Because I want to get out of here as soon as possible." My solute.

That's why I chose Ryu. He's real and I want to get out of here with him. As for Zen, yes I love him but he is not from our world so I chose based on my logic.

"Sleep lady. Tomorrow will be exhausting for you." Aunt Jemima said.

I frowned, "It's exhausting? What will happen?" I asked Aunt Jemima.

"Tomorrow morning you'll find out soon Miss." Reply aunt Jemima.

I went back to my room and could not continue sleeping because I was too busy thinking about what would happen tomorrow.

Am I going to be chased by a real pot man? Or are there zombies? Or is there something that makes me feel so tired?

***

The next day, I woke up and was still thinking about what was going to happen.

I saw Aunt Jemima preparing breakfast in the form of a glass of milk, toast with bacon and eggs of beef eyes.

We had breakfast and talked about what we would do today. Aunt Jemima did not mention anything at all about what she had discussed last night.

After coming out the heart marks of the cows, then I can squeeze easily. Same with horses, sheep and chickens. Funny, isn't it?

Aunt Jemima helped me bring me 4 big buckets of cow's milk, and a big lump of lamb fur. I put it all in a big wagon.

Suddenly a large bee buzzed and chased after me without me knowing what my fault was. I didn't tease the nest or take the honey.

I ran and, immediately,

Wuuout!

Appeared a waist bag that has been wrapped neatly on my waist, like I had planned to open the bag and remove the contents.

I looked for weapons or rifles or giant nets to catch them, but all I found was a cooking tool, a very large silkil.

Without a doubt, I prepared with my silk and like a baseball player I formed horses and both hands held the silk steadily, like a baseball player,

The splash!

The giant bee died with just one sutile blow.

I stumbled into my own house, I was so limp.

Blips

Blips

Oh, my energy warning sign is thinning already. I looked at my coin and bought a croissant bun as well as orange juice to boost my energy.

The srusut!

Only half increased. I need to go back home and rest.

There was an idea in my mind, "IRIA! AUDREY! OR WHOEVER YOU ARE, COME OUT!" I screamed to call them.

Before long Iria came, "Why are you so noisy, Kei? Just disturb!" Spray Iria.

"What do you do when I'm busy here?" I asked him.

With a satisfied smile Iria replied, "I'm watching you." Answer Iria.

This guy is crazy! I'm so sure.

"Can this game be paused? I lost a lot of energy fighting your bees!" Tukasku.

"How long do you need?" Iria asked back.

I thought quickly as I calculated how much time it would take me to fully charge my energy, "10 minutes." My answer.

"alright. After ten minutes I'll bring you back to life." Iria said then she disappeared.

I'm outside this game system, so when this game is paused, then I won't be silent. I'll keep moving. That's my mind, and

PAUSE

The large blue Pause script twinkled before me. The writing follows me wherever I go.

Smart as well as my mind, only I keep moving freely. Can I find Ryu? Nah! Nah! It's cheating. Play with professionals, Keira.

These ten minutes I used to lie down, sit down, and check what my waist bag was all about.

Not long after ten minutes passed, I was automatically in front of my cart again.

I checked my energy and they were fully charged. At least if there was a strange animal attacking me I was ready with my weapon because I had tidied up my waist bag based on the level of the weapon that could kill most quickly. So, I don't have to worry about that.

"Auntie, I'm going to sell this to Mrs Cissy. Just wait here and rest." I said to Aunt Jemima.

I pushed my cart, "Eeeuuggh!" It seems heavy.

I tried to push him back, "Eeuugghh!" Ah, it's so heavy.

I sat down and thought, Suddenly someone offered me help,

"Do you want to help push it? You look so tired?" The man looked at me, his eyes able to pierce my heart and drive out anyone who was there and lock the door.

Guys, stop by my friend's work :

A marriage condition from a man named Arvin has been approved by Fayre. Due to the bitter memories in each other's lives, the two agree to go through a marriage without any future divorce. So, how do the two face the problems that hit their household ark? Can Fayre keep the terms her husband put forward? Or even Arvin himself who violated these conditions?
