Chapter 51: Famous
It was obvious that it was not Desther’s first ti coming to this restaurant.
The waiter was a middle-aged auntie with black hair. When Desther arrived in the room provided by the governnt and first ca here in the restaurant, the auntie was already here serving the custors.
Her na was Macey, but Desther prepared to call her auntie out of habit.
Macey was friendly and accommodating. Perhaps because he reminds her of her late child that passed on the first day of the apocalypse, she especially takes care of Desther every ti he cos here to dine.
"Yes, Auntie. Give
the usual, but can you increase the servings to six? I am a little too famished today," Desther replied with a smile. As for her initial remark, Desther ignored it, as he knew that she was just being nice.
"Six? Oh my, can you handle that much? You have awakened recently, right? Eating more is good. That way, you’ll grow healthy and strong. Alright, wait up for a bit; I’ll bring you your al in a jiffy."
"Thanks, Auntie," Desther replied as he sat on the chair to wait.
Macey was good and kind to Desther.
Macey was already alone since her whole family had died during the apocalypse, much like Desther.
Although Desther does not talk much, his ability to gather information was not diocre.
From bits and pieces of information he heard, he also knew that Macay was already approaching 40 years old.
She had also awakened years ago, but due to her talent being weak for combat and for lifestyle professions, she ended up working an ordinary job like a waiter instead.
In fact, most awakened humans were like this.
Only a portion of the overall population was truly suited to beco combat professionals and lifestyle professionals. So remained as ordinary citizens, living ordinary lives.
After all, not all were courageous enough to face the ferocious monsters, and not all were crafty enough to have their own lifestyle expertise.
Beyond the danger of the world fraught with monsters and slaughter was also a peaceful coexistence of various humans unwillingly swept through the chaotic tides of ti.
An apocalypse was truly not sothing anyone wished for.
While waiting for his food, Desther decides to use his phone and read a few novel Chapters.
However, before he could do it, a notification suddenly popped up at the top of his phone screen.
The notification ca from his social dia application called Professional Tube.
This was where most of the online traffic was directed nowadays because previous popular social dia platforms ceased to exist after the apocalypse.
According to what he knew, the headquarters of those giant social dia platforms was destroyed during the initial onslaught of the apocalypse.
There were said to be efforts to restore them, but they ultimately failed, not only due to high cost but also due to risk.
Now, only one social dia app or platform circulates on the internet called Professional Tube.
It also has online ssaging where everyone can communicate as long as they have the internet.
Forums also exist on the platform, separated only by one tab from the feed.
The notification he got made him curious.
The Professional Tube does not require you to have your na fully plastered on the internet. Most of the ti, users use unique usernas to identify themselves.
For Desther, he had never given his userna to anyone else.
His account was quite boring and la. He does not follow anyone, and no one follows him either.
Just like his daily life, he mostly stayed silent on the internet too.
Swiping down the notification bar of his phone, Desther read the notification in detail.
[@CoraEixel began following you! Follow back?]
’Who is this?’
This was the first ti he saw this userna. He has visited a lot of groups and saw a lot of posts but never saw anyone with such a userna before.
Curious as to who followed his boring account, Desther clicked on the notification.
He did not click the follow-back button yet. Instead, he clicked the userna @CoraEixel before he was redirected to their profile page.
After a few seconds, the page was fully loaded.
The first thing he noticed was the number of followers this person has.
This person actually has over ten thousand followers on their profile and now only follows 2 accounts, one of which should be him.
Now, his curiosity reached an even higher peak. At the sa ti, a foreboding sensation filled him to the brim, as if he felt that sothing bad would happen any mont now.
Desther’s attention was then captured by the person’s profile picture.
It was a picture of a girl wearing sunglasses leaning in a chair leisurely. Her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, slightly covering her upper chest, leaving only a little cleavage exposed.
She seed to be wearing a two-piece swimsuit, but the picture was only a shot of her upper body. Her brown bra accentuated her chest, while down below, even not full, one would still be able to see the alluring curves.
A little bit of abdominal muscles was also outlined below her chest.
Even though he liked to pretend he didn’t feel anything, Desther could still not deny the fact that he was stirred the mont he saw the picture.
She looked pretty and sexy, at least to his standard.
Shaking the distracting thoughts, Desther focused on what was truly important.
To know who this person really was and if he recognizes them in real life.
The picture was a little small from the standard page, though, so he could clearly see who it really was. The sunglasses she was wearing also helped conceal her real face.
Without hesitation, Desther clicked on the picture to enlarge it so that he could clearly see it up close... just for research purposes.
The mont he did so, a vague familiarity imdiately engulfed his mind.
When he took a closer look and tried to discern the face behind the sunglasses, Desther imdiately realized who it really was.
