7 min read1,822 words

Dedicated to the silent readers, readers who comment, and readers who send me emails~ Long story short, everyone who can read this. LMAO. Bless.

Sorry for the late update~ there was just too much happening these days. Apologies. (_ _) Here goes the chapter 66 and it’s pretty longg, I love how Jhing is finally opening up to our Rico~

The emoticons though. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

¹Bad trip - expression of disenchantment or disappointment with a given situation that

makes your mood turn bad.

²Po - it has no definitive meaning but it's closer to calling someone

"Sir/Ma'am." It is a word that is attached in sentences as a respect towards elders

and people you respect like your boss, teacher or even strangers as courtesy.

Example: instead of Thank you, it's more respectful to say Thank you po.

³_

7o - The same as orz and OTL.

⁴555332224433 - Another code... sigh. Remember the keypad on the old phones where you

have to click the number 5 three times just to type the letter "L"?

Day 66

11:11pm

Rico: hElLo tHe3rrre3!

11:14pm

Jhing: Bad trip¹!

Jhing: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Rico: Chill. ┬─┬ノ( º _ ºノ)

Rico: What happened?

11:15pm

Jhing: I don't want to chill!

Jhing: ┻━┻ ︵ヽ(‘Д’)ノ︵ ┻━┻

Rico: Fine then, let's not chill!

Rico: (ノಥ益ಥ)ノ ┻━┻

Jhing: (ノ¬_¬)ノ︵ ┻━┻

11:17pm

Rico: ┬──┬ ¯_(ツ)

Rico: Enough, I'm tired!

Rico: Stop destroying our tables in our home. 😮

Rico: He he he.

11:18pm

Jhing: Fuck.

Rico: Hello? Where did Jhing go?

Rico: Why is there emoticons in our chats po²?

Seen 11:18pm

Rico: I'm sorry.

Rico: _

11:19pm

Jhing: So pissed off!

Rico: Is it because of the people getting mad over Wattpad?

Jhing: How did you know about that? I thought I'm your only friend on Facebook..

Rico: You are! Why are you getting mad? 😦

Rico: I just saw it from your status and the posts you like. 😦

11:20pm

Jhing: And so?

Rico: Hashtag JustSharing.

Jhing: But yea shit, those facebook pages.

Jhing: They think so highly of themselves. They treat Wattpad stories like a place filled with fuckboys and sluts. Like wtf, why would you even think of that?

11:21pm

Rico: Uhm. . .

11:23pm

Jhing: They keep on posting #SaveLiterature but all they do is bash Wattpad authors. They said that when people read Wattpad, the rate of early pregnancy will increase. It's so annoying.

Rico: Awtsu.

11:25pm

Jhing: They keep repeating the lines "The literature in the Philippines is going downhill," but fuck, what about them? What are they doing? Nothing! How would the “literature in the Philippines” improve if they're all talk but no action?

Rico: Hahahahahahaha!

11:26pm

Jhing: Why are you fucking laughing?

Rico: Cause I get what you mean. In the past, only handful of teenagers go to the bookstore and even looked uninterested and bored. But now? I often hear them say, "Come, let's go buy some books."

11:27pm

Jhing: See?! Those teens are eager to read because of Wattpad. I know that not all published books today are considered high standard literary pieces, even my books are not at that level, but it's a start that people are starting to read. How do you change things without a beginning? Bashing the authors? Stopping authors to write ‘slutty’ shit?

Rico: You're right. Baby steps. 😀

11:28pm

Jhing: And then they hide behind these pages with so much likes. They’ll start bashing and if you replied against their posts, they will say "butthurt" when in fact, you explained it properly and reasonably. Butthurt? Aren't they the ones whose butt are hurt because not everyone agrees with their hates?

11:33pm

Jhing: I hate it. I'm so pissed. They need everyone’s support once they hated things cause apparently, mainstreams today is not worthy to be read. Because it's all flirtations. Not making any sense. No depth.

11:34pm

Rico: “Don’t think too highly of yourself just because you’re hating mainstreams. Funny, yes, but sometimes you just look dumb." Nice status, MSQ.

Jhing: MSQ?

11:35pm

Rico: My Seen Queen.

Jhing: Fuck.

Rico: Hahahaha just kidding. 😦

Rico: Fine, just continue what you were saying. 😦

Jhing: You should be thankful that I am not in the mood to bicker with you.

11:36pm

Rico: Thanks. 😀 /

Jhing: Leche.

11:38pm

Jhing: But seriously, the other people don’t even have an idea on what's going on and just wanted to go with the flow. They are even involving every single stories on Wattpad like it's some kind of stereotype. They look down on us because we're Wattpad authors and readers.

Rico: I don’t look down on you. On the contrary, I'm proud that I can talk to you ah. 😀

11:39pm

Rico is typing. . .

Jhing: O please stop that “they're just insecure and jealous” because I've heard that millions of times. I'm so tired of it.

Seen 11:44pm

Jhing: So you just seened me?!

11:56pm

Rico: I was reading the post. 😀

12:03am

Jhing: Okay.

12:15am

Rico: The bashers are too much. 😮

Jhing: See? What did we do for them to get so mad?

12:17am

Rico: Because being a Wattpad basher became a trend. 😀

Jhing: So annoying!

12:18am

Rico: Hahahaha then they're involving the mothers of Wattpaders who doesn't even have an idea what's happening. It's really fun to read online wars, so much nonsense.

Jhing: What do you mean by that? We're nonsense?!

12:19am

Rico: That's not it. After all, there's a lot of Wwattpad stories that invaded the bookstores now.

12:24am

Jhing: Ugh I don't know anymore! 😦

12:25am

Rico: Should we get our revenge? Come, I'll drive you to the gate.

Jhing: Huh?

Rico: Wait for them at their home while I go back in mine because I'm scared of riots hu hu hu.

12:26am

Jhing: Tangina what a gentleman.

12:27am

Rico: But of course, right before they hit you, I will appear and save the damsel. I'm strong, I can be your knight in shining armor. Aren't I so cool? 😀

12:28am

Jhing: Nevermind. I’m not a damsel in distress to wait for a knight in shitting armor.

Rico: Awtsu.

Rico: Hashtag JhingIsSoBitter.

Jhing: I'm not!

12:37am

Rico: I laughed at one of the basher's comment.

Jhing: Which one?

Rico: “The Philippines is a Democratic country and I am entitled to my own opinion.”

12:39am

Jhing: That's one of the lines that they keep using against us. Again and again. They may be educated but they're personality sucks. Why don't they do something to save the literature in the Philippines instead of ganging up and throwing curse words at every corner?

12:40am

Rico: They're so dumb. Even if they use the right reason to justify themselves, they are still using the wicked methods to act so in the end, they will always be wrong even if you turn the world upside down.

12:41am

Rico: I remember the words of my pal Marco who's a professor. He said "If you stretched your arm, that's 'free will'; but if you hit someone in the process, that's your limit."

Rico: He keeps giving me nosebleed whenever he speaks English ah hahahaha.

12:42am

Rico: Tell them, "You all see slutty stories because that's the only thing you're looking at. Try reading encyclopedia, let's find out what your opinions are."

Jhing: Haha!

Rico: And I don't think they have the rights to say that the rate of early pregnancy is increasing because of Wattpad. They should stop watching porn first. 😮

12:43am

Jhing: wtf.

Rico: Hahahahaha I think it will just decrease because women's standards skyrocket because of fictional male characters.

Rico: That's why it's so hard to get a girlfriend. They became choosy, they want the fictional ones.

12:44am

Rico: Thank God I'm handsome.

Rico: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Jhing: And I thought we’ll be having a normal and intelligent conversation for this night.

12:45am

Rico: Awtsu Hashtag ThatHurtsJhing.

Jhing: But really, even though you're crazy, talking to you have more sense than talking to those people.

Rico: Of course, since when did I talk about nonsense topics! D:

Jhing: K.

12:46am

Rico: Jhing. If someone bashes you, tell me, okay?

Jhing: Why? You’ll fight for me?

12:47am

Rico: I'll smash their heads on my abs. :3

Jhing: Goodnight, you're drunk.

Rico: But it's true!!!

Jhing: Goodnight.

Rico: I'm really telling the truth.
