59 ÷ 31 = 0

Chapter 3: March 6th

INVENTORY: MOBILE, STREAM, PANTS
Balance: 45 USD

Hisham’s sister visits.

She takes his room from him. His bed. His laptop. His shirt. His right of objection.

“Sorry, my rig has burned down,” A white lie. “I can’t help with the stream today.“

“Don’t worry, @ HSHM. These things happen. Can't you help with your mobile phone?”

Hisham scratches his naked back. “Roger. The screen is small so I might miss some of them.“

That day was a slow day. No major content to moderate. On any other day, he would have repeated that conversation twice more…

Hisham takes it easy for once.

FSSSSHHHHHHH~

Hisham distracts himself from the stream by listening to the water sounds from the bathroom.

Hisham scratches his head. His hand is sore, but he's used it by now.

He worries. His sister won’t ask him about the shirt. Would she? The blood stains were too difficult to remove.

His sister notices, of course, but she won’t ask about the shirt.

Instead, she would ask about the broken mirror.

Hisham swiftly answers.

He gives her a white lie.

He must've rehearsed this! His sister realizes.

The Joker laughs at him, from where there’s no one to hear.

To Be Continued...

Go to Chapter 4... [TBA]

Author Notes

It's the 6th day of the month, and Hisham doesn't seem to be thinking about his spending.

This chapter follows the second chapter's ending, so go back to Chapter 2 if you haven't read that. I wonder if you realized what happened to Hisham's hand and why. I kept it vague in both chapters, so I hope it was clear enough for you.

The theme this time is Lies. Hisham lies to the person he works for and lies to his sister.

Speaking about the sister, this is the chapter she's first introduced, and while she doesn't have any lines, I hope you can infer her personality from the few lines about her. I like writing her without using any dialogue. Was a nice challenge.

What do you think?

The only new image in this chapter is the Phone Item in the Inventory. I'm thinking of changing the format of the cover image. Between the last chapter and this one, I published a list of my fictional works. I realized how a catchy cover image can make a huge difference.

Anyway, I'll be happy to see your comments, and I'll try to publish the next chapter sooner. For now, I wish you all a happy day.

Salam (Peace)
