Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: System Active

Finnian opened his eyes and he gazed around for a bit; a confused and furlough look was in his eyes but he settled a minute later when he saw the ceiling fan of his apartment.

"How did I get home?" His question received no answer and he got up from the bed. 

The events of the night before returned to him; the interaction Samantha had with that fat ass, and his talk with the old man…perhaps It was him who brought him home? But that did not make sense,how could a stranger bring him home when they had just met?

Even though my eyes are closes, I can see it all. The words the old man told him began echoing in his head and he shook his head free from the thoughts—he just wanted to bath and go to work for another day, he did not know how he was going to approach Samantha after what he witnessed yesterday.

Discarding such thoughts; Finnian headed into his small bathroom to prepare for the day ahead.

A few minutes passed and he emerged crisp and neat, his hair combed in its usual fashion; slicked back by the gel he used. He took his briefcase and left.

Finnian stepped out into the open and he glanced at the incoming traffic, his eyes wandered to the children running around, the vendor stalls and he took a breather; the fresh aroma of coffee flooding his nostrils. He plastered a smile On his face and made his way to work.

As he walked he kept looking at the couples going to work alongside him, the women walking and chatting with their friends and a flash of pain struck his brain forcing him to stop and close his eyes a bit.

A moment passed and he opened his eyes—he blinked once…then another and what he saw made him pause a bit.

Above every female walking past him, there was a heart meter with their names underneath and each heart meter had different numbers within along with pink colors. Some halfway full, others two-thirds full and some empty. 

What the hell did that old man do to Me? Finnian seethed—whatever that old man done to him was messing up with his perception—however, despite his frustrations, Finnian noticed something. The heart meters were only present for females, the males did not have such indicators above them.

[Welcome to the Sex-heart meter system]

Finnian blinked…sex-heart meter system? was this a joke? He looked around, but every time he turned his head, the screen shifted with him. The bolded introduction lines present in his field of view. 

"Excuse meee!!" A loud, yet soft voice called out to him, it snapped Finnian out of his trance but before he could react, something soft crashed into him, sending him tumbling onto the ground and he winced as his back hit the stone pavement beneath them.

He looked at his front to see what had collided with him. Wait what hit me? He thought to himself as his vision focused and his nose was assaulted by a sweet smell. His reasoning returned to him and the supply of oxygen depleted as he was pinned between two massive orbs of flesh. He flailed around and the weight atop of him eased up.

"Sorry about that…" the same voice offered apologies.

Finnian got to his feet and looked at what caused him to fall.

His eyes widened.

She was a natural brunette; her long hair fell onto her shoulders and face, with bangs framing her forehead. She had a round facial structure, a small nose and full pink lips…her skin was creamy and soft. She wore a black blouse that was buttoned almost to the collarbone, the creases on the shirt highlighted how massive her titties were. Finnian's eyes went down and his throat went dry, she had wide curves, a small waist and she stood firmly on her medium tip heels.

[ Sophie Jong ]

[ Age: 22 ]

[ Want to see further? [Yes]/[No] ] 

Finnian raised an eyebrow—he did not know if what he was seeing was accurate and to test out if this was not a trick that his mind was playing on him, he selected yes and the screen changed.

[ Intern At Star Valley ]

[ Breast size: 36 DD, Waist size: M, Ass: 47 inch]

[ Sophia is a natural klutz and an avid fantasy romance reader, she loves to read in her free time, and sing.]

[Attraction level: 5]

Pfft…as if I'd believe this bullshit. He snickered to himself; the whole thing was looking more and more like a scam. He looked at the woman and the heart indicator appeared with the number 5 within its hollow center.

It was with this, that Finnian started to believe. 

The screen changed further as Finnian stared at Sophie.

[It's okay, I wasn't looking where I was going +10 points]

[You should be careful next time +3 points ]

[ Did you hurt yourself? A fall like that could cause some scraping. +20 points ]

Finnian so far was convinced that what he was seeing was a blessing and he waged his options, on the choices he had to select from. "Did you hurt yourself? A fall like that could cause some scraping."

He watched as the heart meter above Sophie's head rise and the numbers change until they wrote 25. 

Sophie blushed and shook her head. " Nope, I did not hurt myself…thanks to you, my fall was cushioned."

[Introduce yourself to her and ask for her name, ask where she is headed. +20 points ]

[Say Goodbye and leave +5 points ]

Finnian reached out his hand. "My name is Finnian Mercer…whats your name? And judging from your clothing, are you heading somewhere?" He asked, although he already knew about her from this mysterious ability he gained overnight.

Sophie reached out and shook his hand. "My name is Sophie…" she blushed a bit. "Yup, I'm heading to Star Valley Corp, Today's my first day at work."

Finnian grinned a bit. "For real? I happen to work there, I can accompany you if you want?"

Sophie's heart meter spiked again and the numbers changed to 45. 

She offered him a smile. "That would be great!"

—-

The two entered the Star Valley building laughing and all eyes within the first floor lobby turned to them. 

Whispers started to fly immediately but Finnian and Sophie paid no heed to them. 

"Well the HR is that way! I'll see you after-work?" Finnian blurted out and internally groaned…he had scared her away with his impulsiveness.

He expected the heart meter to drop but contradictory, the heart meter went up and the numbers changed to 65 with the heart shape being almost full. Sophie nodded at him. "Dinner is on you senpai…" she chirped and excused herself heading to the HR office.

Finnian's internal representation did a fist pump and he pressed the elevator button and stepped into the elevator.

Before the doors can close, a figure slipped in. 

Finnian looked at who entered with him and his face blanched as he remembered the events of yesterday.

Samantha glared at Finnian with a small pout.

"Who was that girl?"
