Dina had stars in her eyes as she stared at Jackson's projection, she was like a totally different person. The once professional girl was now reduced to an obsessed and crazed girl crazing over the projection, it was almost as if she wanted to go lick the screen.
Too much, Dina's obsession with Jack was too much.
Jackson sighed mentally, this kid.....
"Geraldina, we broke up, please stop it with that ridiculous name..." Jack said helplessly.
"But Jacky~, let's make up, please, I miss everything about you so bad, I still love you, Jacky...." Dina whined.
"Geraldina, WE'RE DONE, BEAT IT," Jack said coldly stunning Geraldina.
"B-but, you're just confused, aren't you... I mean... I,"
"Stop!"
Silence followed his bellow and Geraldina fell to her knees with a thump. She looked up with teary eyes, looking very pitiful as she sobbed slightly while saying-
"Jack, say it, just say it, what does she have that I don't?"
"My heart," Jack said straight-forwardly without a single change of facial expression.
"Since when...?" Dina asked in a hushed voice fully knowing that her heart was about to be crushed but still going on.
"Since ever, I'm sorry, it might sound heartless but..... I only dated you because you looked a lot like her."
Bam!
Dina felt her world crash before her, she had always thought that Jack had fallen out of love with her and that was why he ended their relationship.
But she was just a substitute, no wonder... the nostalgic look he held almost all the time when staring at her, she thought that she reminded him of a beautiful memory and she did, not just in the way she thought.
She had been a substitute for seven whole years, fuck... she was... why did she.... but why...
Dina stood up, her face blank and her eyes listless, she stared straight at Jackson and asked with a sad smile-
"Is this what you really want?"
"Yes, treat this as a goodbye gift from you to me," Jack said with a straight face.
"Alright, say it," Dina muttered tiredly.
"Zero, send the contents of the contract to her," Jack said with a satisfied smile.
Seeing such a smile Dina's heart thumped, he was still so cute... wait... why was she still...
A wave of information flowed into her brain making her dizzy for a while before everything became completely transferred.
The contract was a soul contract, she was to transmigrate which she assumed was traveling through different worlds with a mission of making a certain target feel different emotions, there was a strict warning that she should never fall in love with the target as the possibility of the target remembering her after the operation was close to nil.
Dina didn't mind this, she was already in love anyway, and traveling through this weird journey would help her in her study of time and space plus she trusted Jack would never hurt her but even if he did, she didn't mind as she would still do it as far as it was for Jack.
She was about to accept when she noticed a piece of information-
'The Transmigrator must be ready to use any methods including being in relationships and having sexual intercourse to fulfill the mission and other extreme measures as the target is an XXX ranked personal; the transmigrator has been warned.'
WHAT. THE. FUCK.?
"What is this Jack? You're telling me to enter another relationship and fuck another guy when my heart still has you?!" Dina screeched at Jack hysterically after noticing it.
"Geraldina...."
"You don't even call me Dina anymore, you don't want me anymore but that's fine, I could endure, I can just watch you from a far distance... but you're actually trying to push me into a relationship…?" Dina said in a pained tone.
Her beautiful face was filled with tears and they wouldn't stop flowing, her composure had been torn apart showing only a broken-hearted girl trying to shield pieces of her remaining heart.
"Geraldina, please agree to the contract," Jack said while sighing.
"You don't care?" Dina asked in a teary voice.
"Yeah," Jack said heartlessly.
"Is it about your so-called love?" Dina asked with an evil smile on her teary face.
"Yes, my Love, not my so-called Love," Jack said coldly.
"Haha, ahahaha, hahahah, oh Jacky.... you should know nothing comes for free. Jackson Venaz, I owe you nothing from now on, I thought I had a chance but substitute? For seven years? And even still. I... still want you but a girl gotta do what a girl gotta do so FUCK NO Jackson, I'm not being your fucking puppet anymore." Dina said with a giggle as she stood up, looking up at Jackson with an absolutely miserable face.
Tears were running down her face but she was giggling, she was crying yet laughing if despair was a face then she was wearing it right now yet the one she loved didn't care. It was all over for her, her life was over.
Jackson was never hers and couldn't be hers, yes she had always realized this and even more so now... so why?
WHY DOES IT STILL HURT LIKE THIS?!
Why couldn't she JUST LET GO?
"Send me back Johnson," Dina muttered tiredly.
"Listen D...."
"I SAID NO! NO! FUCKING NO! SEND ME BACK BECAUSE I, GERALDINA VERALDINA REJECT THIS OFFER AND WILL NOT ACCEPT YOU! I'M NOT BEING YOUR FUCKING PUPPET ANYMORE ASSHOLE! SEND ME BACK!"
It was the first time Dina was cold to Jack and he was a bit stunned, he gritted his teeth helplessly but couldn't do much since a contract couldn't be forced on a person.
"Send her back for the main time Zero-One," Jack said.
"Of course," Zero-One who had been listening on felt nothing and still followed the instructions given.
Dina raised her head, looking straight at Jackson with a hateful glare which soon softened into tears as she muttered something with a shallow shallow smile as she left.
Seeing Dina leave, Jack's cold façade broke showing a pained smile filled with indescribable emotions, remembering what Dina just muttered to him, he sighed.
"Help me... I really can't give up on you still," Dina had said with a face filled with something worse than despair... unyielding hope that would never be fulfilled.
The heartbreak of wanting to give up but being unable to, hoping... a hope that could never be fulfilled yet still hung unto tightly. Yes, what was worse than despair?
Unfulfilled hope that can't be let go of.
Now THAT was beyond despair itself.
"Tana.... I'll definitely free you from this curse... along with Thalassa," Jack sighed sorrowfully.
Dina curled up in her bed crying, she decided to skip her lessons, in her situation she probably wouldn't concentrate anyway.'Jack, why are you so heartless, I love you so much... just what do you want, I could do it, NO! It's you, Dina, you're such a pathetic fuck! Just leave him alone, if you love him, you should....'In the end, she cried herself to sleep while listening to Jack's songs, Jack was a small-time musician and had composed songs for her which she listened to calm herself down most of the time but this time around it simply worsened her case.Her heart tightened in pain as if something was squeezing it tightly, suffocating her and choking her, worse than any pain she had ever felt, this continued until she finally fell asleep.Waking up, Dina realized that it was still 3 0'clock in the morning, she had slept from yesterday straight to the next day,'Wow, that's insane,' Dina thought.She decided to watch movies in order to kill time, munching on her popcorn she watched a
Dina felt her world spin before she landed on a wet itchy surface, she was still trying to get herself when she felt a sting on her back making her raise up with a start."Ow! What was that?" Dina said frowning while itching the sting, seems like she had unexpectedly angered Mr. Ant huh?Dina looked around her surroundings and decided to talk to her system first. Hopefully, he was still there, because if she was ditched in this strange place just like that..."Don't panic, I'm here and ready to explain everything when you've settled," Zero said assuredly but it seemed more like a statement in his monotone voice."Em...? Where are you? Are you in my mind? Wait! I have my privacies okay?!""I'm in your mind yes but like you said, you're memories are yours alone and intruding is considered rude, we have a privacy policy for our hosts so be rest assured," Zero said in a professional tone."Eh..." Dina was speechless and could only cough to reduce the awkwardness."Should I proceed to say t
Dina stared at her third leg down and then looked up at her chest feeling a bit weird. As she was an intersex, having a dick wasn't weird to her, what was... was that she couldn't feel her boobs."Feels so fucking weird," Dina muttered."To make it easier for the trainee, this body was chosen, apologizes to all inconsideration," Zero said."No, no, I don't feel annoyed at all, just a bit.... weird" Dina frantically said to ease up Zero."Good to know."After looking at herself and adjusting her mental state for half a day she calmed down and decided to think about her next step.She didn't know where to start, she already had a plan in mind but to begin was the issue. Not only was she directionless, but she was also naked and beautiful and wasn't naïve enough to think that because as a male that she couldn't be raped, especially not in a world where homosexuality was normal because of the 'special' races.She sat there and mulled at it for a while when she had Zero-one say-"I could or
Jerry smiled at his room, it was perfect. A huge bed with a perfect texture and softness, a closet with clothes! A small make-up stand? Did they think him a girl? He did look one, he was sure that this was Jessica's doing. A small table and a chair that could be used as a study table or for any other thing, on top of the table were a tablet, phone, and a laptop. In the front was a television, game capsule, and other electronics. There were three doors in his room, one was the exit and entrance, the other led to the bathroom, and the last led to a kitchen. There was another door Jerry saw in his closet and he was sure it lead to Jack's room, he wasn't sure what they were suggesting but it didn't matter to him anyways. He jumped into his bed and lay down; ah, what sweet comfort. Sighing, he stood up and took out a list- his daily work list. Wake the young master up by 6 0'clock Prepare a bath for him and undress him III. Dress him up in preparation for the day Prepare his breakf
Jerry scooped the cake from the plate and brought it towards Jack who opened his mouth and ate it while staring straight at him.Dina was sweating bullets internally, as the only child before her mother remarried she had always been the one pampered and not the other way around. She was worried, very worried, what if the cake unexpectedly falls?And she gets fired? She wouldn't be able to finish her mission! Or worse the fork jabs him in the eye and plucks out his eyeballs! She'd be sentenced to death!Of course, this was only her inner turmoil which she assumed Jack didn't hear, but man was she wrong! How could observant eyes of Jack miss these?Seeing the panic in his pretty blue eyes, his lips curled up ever so slightly, so slight that Jerry didn't notice.Jerry did his work well, he feed Jack all the cake to the last spoon and Jack's drink was half finished, he stared at Jack waiting for him to dismiss him but only got silence in response."Get another glass cup," Jack ordered.Jer
Jerry hummed along as he mobbed the instrumental room, it was one of Dina's favorite songs named- "Love you like a love song". She wasn't really good at remembering anything else about a song but its tone and lyrics unless it was special then remembering the name would be a bonus, then what about the artist's name? That was probably if her friend told her or she was so touched she wanted to listen to more of the artist's song. She cleaned the entire room, cleaned the combat room along with the weapons and weaponry rack, went to the garden, and took care of it. Cleaned and fixed her kitchen and her bathroom before going over to Jack's room. Today was a weekend and during weekends, Jack was always free which also meant she was. Thinking about it, she had been here for about 6 months, aye, she was really dying to see her mum, she really was rethinking her life choices but no turning back anyways. As expected, a messy-haired drowsy Jack opened the door for her, she went in and was ne
"Hm..." Jerry groaned and faced right in his sleep while squeezing the life of the pillow he was holding. Jack's heart skipped a beat, he looked so defenselessly cute sleeping on his bed, like a little kid. Jerry pursed his lips in his sleep, no one knew what he was dreaming, his brows furrowed and his lashes quivering lightly, and his long hair was scattered everywhere. Jack was enjoying taking in this view, he also loved how Jerry was muttering his name in his sleep but why was he frowning at it and what was with the tacky nickname 'Jacky'? He saw Jerry's eyes fluttering as if to open and got ready to surprise him but was surprised instead- "P-P.. ink?" "*Yawn* what're you doing in my room, Jack... JACK?!" all traces of sleepiness finally varnished from Jerry's eyes as he started panicking. "Pink? Jer?" Jack asked while frowning, he wasn't angry that Jerry kept a secret, just that he kept it from even him. "I HAVE THIS WEIRD FETISH, HEHE, THEY…THEY'RE CONTACT LENSES, HAHA I AL
How the hell did Jean and Jerry become this close? So close he even knew about Jerry's natural pink eyes? It was like this- On a good day, Jerry with his trusty maid outfit went to throw away the trash only to see a broken toy robot. Interested he picked it up and marveled at the maker's genuisity, but why throw such a good thing in the trash? Picking it up he fixed it, tweaking a few things in it, and turned it into a tiny assistant. One that would get him things if he was too lazy to, feed him popcorn or even food while he watched movies or played games, even notify him of important things, or pressed his cloth for him. The perfect assistant, all he needed to do was order it through an app he made for it. It made Dina remember her first robo-friend, she had made that around her first year in the university. However, she didn't know whether it was because her mum had watched too many robot alien invasion or AI apocalypse films or that she was just plain worried her daughter woul
