Chapter 3: Chapter 3. I am an ordinary person(?) 3
Ethan's POV
.

…
But I got one condition of my own, I asked my dad to let me finish my Jr. college in the Arts field, to this dad reluctantly agreed.
Due to my withdrawn personality, I didn't make any friends in the college. And I was pretty chilled about that as it's okay to be alone and appear mysterious rather than show my weak and pushover personality. My motto in college is "as long as I don't find myself in trouble, I am okay about everything."
But in that year, I found myself in world of anime and obviously manga / (hentai (Cough… I am a man of culture…)).
As this 2018 year signified my own smartphone. My first phone was Samsung Galaxy J2. Though it was a used mobile of dad alongside with a new sim under his name.
And at that time my ringtone was the legendary 'Sasageyo' from Attack on Titan anime it is still in the one of my favorite songs. Man, Eren didn't do justice to Mikasa my all-time favorite WAIFU, alongside with Shouko Komi and Hinata Hyuga. It happened when I was watching 'The last: Naruto the movie' the scene where Hinata and the fucking Bastard Ōtsutsuki Toneri, when the wedding was almost finished, Toneri is about to kiss Hinata and seal their marriage. I was cursing, where the fuck is Naruto as my anxiety was on the roof. Even after completely finishing the movie, I felt nauseating and rage which I felt unlike before after a long time whenever that scene comes into mind.
And it took me a month to move on then I made my mind I won't let anyone come fucking near my SAFA as she is mine and mine alone. As for Safa her passion is in the field of teaching so she took Arts field as well. I occasionally go and visit her whenever I feel like seeing her, I see her from the side line and nope there is no 'Green hat' for me that's also one of my concerns as I need to be vary of it as well. It's not like I don't trust her but its better to be safe than sorry.

I, finally entered in my 12th grade in 2019 August (A/N 7 months before the disaster struck if you know what I mean)
(In India 10th and 12th grade exam marks holds a very significant place as everyone will only ask what's your 10th and 12th percentage)
In this year I obviously studied my syllabus well.
More importantly I got into the world of Novel as for how?
In the website where I read manga of AOT and Komi San, there was a newly added feature of Manhwa and the website was hellbent of advertising it to the readers so it was presented in the form of pop-up ads humanity's greatest annoying invention.
And after I finished that week's manga chapter I curiously went on that feature and guess what?
I found the humanity's Greatest hunter Sung Jin-woo holding his iconic dagger in a reverse grip, arms crossed with his azure blue glowing soon got my attention then in no time I found myself in the last released chapter in my hunt for finding the next chapter I learned that it's a novel adaptation so….
That's where I entered in the world of novels.
I after reading that novel expressed my desire in the concept of having a system. Like a Chūnibyō I kept shouting
System
System
In my mind at least a couple of thousand times (A/N those dark times….)
After finally passing my Chūnibyō period
I went to see Safa and she suddenly commented about my slight fatness (we did not become lovers yet)
I felt challenged as a man
So, I really did my exercise of 5 KM run and 30 minutes of calisthenics daily for 6 months
During my periodically low times I hear the songs
Like
Imagine dragon's – Believer
Jon Bovi's – it's my life
Linked Horizon's – Shinzo wo Sasageyo!
Now its my lowkey collection of
The turtle's – Happy Together
Måneskin's – I Wanna Be Your Slave
Etc. (LOL got the habit of putting this whenever I ran out context from school)
.
.
Until the disaster struck.
I even got abs at the end; those were some of my proud moments.
.
..
…
And finally, the fucking disaster came to fuck up not only mine but everyone's else life as well in the name of Covid-19.
During Covid lockdown in my home it's only me, dad, mom and lastly my 84 years old grandma
My brother got stuck outside of the state and had to wait until the transportation got available in India
It was more like a military academy to me home at that time
Wake up in the morning 6 AM (that was such a pain in the ass, it is even now)
But it held its own share of merits as well.
My familial bond got stronger (A/N I'll explain it later if the readers wish, I am unsure about this cause the readers mostly don't give a shit about the process they only care about the result.)
But as the result of me getting depressed
As the little human interaction, I had with outside was completely cut off and, in my home, everyone is minding their own business so I without being noticed got into depression and Safa at that time didn't have her own mobile so I occasionally talked with Shiva, Amit and Vicky.
And in no time, I got depressed
And when I about to take the last step, my family intervened and saved me from my foolish action.
After that I didn't get a moment of loneliness.
My family finally decided to give the care which I lacked since childhood and I suffered a lot.

Anyway, back to the story
I have finished my 12th Grade as I wished now it was my time to finish end of my deal.
I joined ITI (it's a basic technical course where it teaches some useful skills)
It's an online lecture
Man, its not easy to hear some notes via the phone and its boring as fuck.
As the educational institutions took their sweet time opening, by the time it opened...…. My desire to attend classes totally vanquished.
There was an arrogance etched in me by thinking that I don't need to attend classes I can give exams by studying on watching YouTube (I was in for a great surprise).
I took more and more leave and kept being absent that the principal called my mom in school to inform mom that I need to be present and complete all the practical work which I left out.
Which I did after a lot of effort…
And finally, I finished my ITI with a good mark. (Now this year is 2022)
But by the time I finished my exam and the result came out It is already October (thanks to Corona)
So that meant that I need to wait for 8 months to the start of next academic Year as the admission have been closed for that year.

Time skip – 7 months later.
May 2023
Well finally after a lot I became the lover of my childhood crush on day of 27/05/2023.
After I became into relationship I…
Became a Romantic Boy
I mean as the thrill and happiness of coming into being in a relationship is Unmatched.
We fought with each other
We flirted with each other
We told our characters and secrets to each other (I literally told her everything about myself)
We are still in the process of exploring our feelings....in our first month of being in a relationship.
Until .....
