<h4>Chapter 6: Buying A Car</h4>


    Inside a car dealership shop, Ss was being taken around by the female salesperson, as she introduced the cars in the shop to him.


    "This is thetest product we just got yesterday. The 2024 Chevrolet Camaro, a rear-wheel drive, offered with two body styles: coupe and softtop convertible. Powertrains include a 335-hp V-6, and a heart-pounding 455-hp V-8.


    The high-performance 650-hp Camaro ZL1 is a blend of speed and luxury, ensuring you get your money''s worth. It is priced at $42,495," The female salesperson said as she pointed to ck car.


    One could see how experienced and knowledgeable she is with how she introduced the car and its specs.


    After she was introducing the Camaro, she moved on and walked towards another car, and started introducing it.


    The next few minutes followed with them walking around the shop and thedy introducing each car in the shop, and exining their specifications to Ss.


    While she was still at it, Ss decided to check his ount bnce. He immediately brought out his phone from his pocket and opened his bank app.


    ~$74,000~


    Seeing his ount bnce, Ss felt it so surreal as he could not believe that such an amount of money would ever belong to him, and also considering that he didn''t work for it. After he bought the iPhone and MacBook, he also bought the necessary essories which made his ount bnce to skyrocket to its current amount.


    ''$74k in my ount?! All I had yesterday was $235 and now, it''s $70k. Is this a dream?''


    If he was to be told by someone that such an amount of money would be his, he would scoff at the person, because he knew how bad his previous financial situation was. However, everything has changed in less than twenty-four hours.


    While Ss was still in his own world, thedy was already done with her exnation and was now looking at him.


    Ss was finally brought out of his reverie when he heard her calling him.


    "Sir?," She called as she looked at Ss who had a lost expression on his face. She did not know what he was thinking about, but she knew that it was definitely something good due to the smile on his face.


    Coming out of his reverie, Ss saw the female salesperson looking at him intently, and he smiled to cover his embarrassment before taking a quick nce at the cars around.


    "Sir, which one is to your liking?," The female salesperson asked Ss when she saw Ss looking at the cars.


    The truth is that Ss didn''t even pay attention to thedy when she was doing the introduction and exnation, as he was upied with the joy of seeing his ount bnce so inted.


    Actually, Ss doesn''t care about the cars and their specifications. All he wants at the moment is a means of transportation, not something to show off.


    After taking a quick nce at the cars around, he made his choice as he pointed to a ck car.


    "There. Give me that one," He said to thedy.


    Thedy saw the car he pointed to and nodded, "Excellent choice sir. This is the 2024 Corvette, a car priced at $69,995," She said.


    Ss only nodded and gave her his bank card.


    After she was given the bank card, thedy started walking to the counter to swipe it.


    "Please help me get the legal documents, and all necessary things done. You can add the expenses to the money," Ss said.


    "Okay sir, it will be done," She said and walked towards the door beside the counter, before opening it and disappearing inside.


    Ss was still waiting when he got the system''s notification.


    [Ding!]


    [You spent $73,490. You received a 10x rebate of expenses made. You earned $734,900. The money has been sent to your bank ount]


    Seeing the notification, Ss realized that thedy was already done with processing his documents, and just to confirm his thoughts, he saw the door open and thedy emerging from inside with papers in her hands.


    She walked towards him and gave the papers to him, before giving him a ck key fob.


    "Sir, everything has been processed, your license te, insurance and other things have been taken care of. All you just need to do is to sign," She said with a smile.


    "Ok, where do I sign," Ss asked as he flipped through the papers thedy gave to him.


    "You just need to sign here... and here," Thedy said as she pointed to spaces designated for signing.


    Ss saw this and took the pen, and signed. After he was done with it, he walked towards the ck Corvette.


    Getting to the car, Ss ran his hand on the body of the car, having a feel of it. Ss felt like he was touching 24k gold.


    Why wouldn''t he feel that way when the car is worth almost $70k. A cost for a car he would have only dreamed of.


    Ss pressed the unlock button on the car key and the car gave a beep, before its wing-like doors opened like a bird spreading its wings.


    Ss smiled at this and got into the car. He ran his fingers over the steering, down to the ignition button.


    With a light chuckle, he pressed it, and the car''s engine came to life with a roar


    ~Vroom... Vroom... Vroom~


    The sound of the car''s engine felt like music to his ears. He nodded in approval and said to himself, "A money well spent."


    Ss immediately steered the car out of the shop, and into the roads of Oand. Though Ss didn''t have a car before, he has his license and driving is not an issue to him.


    ...


    A ck Corvette shot through the roads of Oand city, surprising its users.


    Luxury cars and luxury sport cars are not something rare in the United States, as people see them very often in popr cities or high affluent ces, but that doesn''t make it cheap either.


    Everyone knows that one needs to have high purchasing power to buy a luxury car, as they are not only expensive but their maintenance costs are actually the same.


    As the car disappeared from view, some of the road users looked on with a yearning expression on their faces.


    Meanwhile in the car, Ss was bobbing his head as he listened to one of his favorite songs, and sometimes, he sang along.


    Currently, he''s on his way to the office of a real estatepany. He wants to get himself either a house or an apartment and move out of his father''s house. However, he''s not optimistic about being able to afford a house with the amount he has in his ount, but getting an apartment should be easy.


    Though Ss has this thought, he couldn''t help but worry about his little brother, Alex. He doesn''t know if he can trust his well-being to Kim after moving out.


    Alex has always been a very quiet boy, never interacting and only staying in his room watching cartoons, or readingic books. The only time Ss knows that Alexes out of his room is when someone calls him out, or it''s time to eat.


    "I just have to take things slowly," Ss said and stepped on the gas.


    ...


    An hourter, Ss stopped and parked in front of a building, beforeing down from the car and walked into the building.


    The building is an office building used by different businesses organizations, and as such, an elevator is needed.


    Walking into the building''s lobby, Ss walked towards thedy who sat at the reception desk, to ask for directions.


    "Hello. Please, which floor is LightHome Properties on?," Ss asked her.


    "Tenth floor."


    "Okay, thank you," Ss said and made his way to the elevator.


    As Ss walked toward the elevator, thedy lowered her head as she bit her lips.


    ''Fuck.. I have been getting turned on so much today just by hearing men''s voices. This is all Dave''s fault, he doesn''t care for me like before'' She thought to herself as her hand slowly found it way to the hem of her skirt.


    ''Should I go and relief myself in the toilet?.. No, I-I can''t do that at work...'' She thought and shook her head internally, as she squeezed the hem of her skirt tightly. ''And besides, doing it myself doesn''t work anymore. Ahh.. I need someone to satisfy me!''


    Who would have thought that the receptionist who was always calm and quiet will have such obscene thoughts running through her head? The quiet ones are really the craziest.


    ...


    The elevator stopped on the tenth floor and Ss walked out of it, and made his way to an office that had a sign saying ''LightHome Properties'' at the top of its door.


    Inside the office, Ss was greeted by a middle-aged man.


    "Wee. Please do have your seat. What can I help you with, sir?," The man asked as he shook Ss'' hand.


    "Thank you," Ss said as he took his seat, "I''m looking to buy a house," He said stating his reason foring.


    "Buying a house.... Can I have your specifications, preference and budget? I will check if we have anything avable," The man said.


    "A good house with at least three rooms, two bathrooms and a budget of $700,000. It should also be in Oand and it will be better if it''s close to Stanford University," Ss said.


    The man was taken aback when he heard what Ss said. He could already guess that Ss was naive and inexperienced when he walked in, but hearing this confirmed it.


    ''A house with at least three bedrooms and two bathrooms for $700,000?! And it should be close to Stanford University?! Where in the world would you see such a thing?''


    Not to mention a house close to Stanford University, even small apartments in and around school areas, and Central Business Districts are very expensive, with the majority of them surpassing the cost of houses in other areas.


    Even though the man had these thoughts, he didn''t voice them out. Instead, he smiled and tried to exin to his potential customer that such a thing he''s asking for is impossible.
