The System In My Head

The sweet Japanese with the task of Residence Assistant

"What did you just say?!?" Tyler is getting angry. Some random guy insulted her out of nowhere.

"You are actually wrong. Your birth certificate is an apology letter from the factory ******!"

Tyler's face flushed with embarrassment and anger.

Ben may be quiet, but he's very good at cursing. Even the system praised its video game that spoke rubbish when it first described its communication status. At least, that's how he saw it.

Ben looked at Tyler's swollen stomach. "From looks. You'll need another birth certificate."

*Ptyu!* Tyler's friend spewed his Gatorade at a girl running on a nearby treadmill. He laughed uncontrollably and the scene became chaotic!

Tyler's almost mad from his ear! His arms trembled as he pointed at Ben while looking for a reply.

Ben kept staring at Tyler's midsection. "Not pregnant? Then, you will need a waist circumference certificate."

*bom!* A man laughed out loud as he ran on the treadmill and was thrown off. Most of the nearby gym goers laughed out loud, staring at Tyler!

Tyler can't help himself anymore! He lunged at Ben and swung the haymaker! Although Ben had not fought for many years, he found it too easy to avoid this fat, sluggish, and drunk. He was short so he stepped to the side.

Drawn by the momentum of his wild swing, Tyler stumbles forward until crashing headfirst into a load rack! One of the heavier loads fell onto his feet! "Geeh!"

Ben glanced at Tyler's friend who was still recovering from his laughter. He raised his hand in an indifferent manner, showing no intention to join the fight. That's not too surprising. Everyone here had only known each other for less than two weeks so no one was close yet.

Ben walked towards Tyler who was still on the ground holding his leg. "Tyler, say. Who's father?"

Tyler glanced at Ben. 'The 'hair...' Eventually, he realizes Ben's identity. "That's you..."

"Good answer."

Tyler wants to cough up blood!

Ben never thought Tyler would keep his bet. It was enough that he had reason to humiliate her. When people bullied Ben, he didn't defend himself in the past, but it wasn't because fighting scared him, but he didn't see a way to win. With his recent physical and system changes, he has a weapon now. So why should he let others bully him?

Feeling that Tyler has done enough to humiliate her, Ben returns to his dorm room. As he walked through the hallway of his floor, a door by the side opened, and a girl backed away from the door carrying a pile of paper. He's in a hurry. He didn't notice Ben who was silent right outside his door. As a result, he hit her. The collision had dropped his documents from his hands and spread them into the air.

As the papers floated in the hallway like clouds, the two of them looked at each other.

Ben stopped breathing at that moment.

When the documents reached the ground, the two of them gasped. "Oh .." the girl cried as she started collecting the papers. Benjamin knelt down and helped her, occasionally stealing glances at this diligent beauty.

He blinked for a few seconds as if recalling something, then looked at him, "Benjamin Romero-san?" the girl asked in a sweet voice but was stifled by what sounded like a Japanese accent to Ben

Ben's eyebrows shot up. "That's me."

He followed. "We have never met. I'm RA-mu. I came to your room a few times, but your boyfriend Fariq-san said you were at the gym or in class..."

"RA?"

"Resident Assistant. I am a graduate student, but I get free housing by working here to help students with any issues. Every floor has it. I want to introduce myself. My name is Miyuki Saito." He stretched out his hand as he continued to stack the papers with the others, showing just how rushed he was.

Ben shook his hand, realizing how polite he was. 'Now I see him, he looks a little older, around his early 20s ...'

"Oh..." Miyuki made that funny voice again as she recalled something. "I'm sorry for not knocking down that horrible flyer sooner."

It took Ben a few seconds to realize that he must have dropped them all when he first entered the dormitory.

Miyuki continued. "Although I don't understand. 'King Burrito?' Looks like you didn't even eat a burrito." He stared at Ben's muscular arms as his cheeks turned red.

"Oh, that's a misunderstanding. That's the Mexican shipping side business I tried." Ben said with a flat face. 'Who said no? Fariq thought so. Maybe he will too.'

"Oh. side business." He nodded his head.

'Thank you Fariq, you're an angel!' Ben was lucky with his roommate.

Miyuki stopped collecting her papers, realizing something. "Then ... Did I destroy your business?" His face turned pale, then he bowed. "Gomen-nasai!"

Ben's eyes widened. He raised it with his upper arm open. His face turned from white to red in the blink of an eye. "It's nothing. You can buy me a drink." Ben doesn't know where it came from. After getting fit and having Tyler, her confidence grew.

"You can't drink here Benjamin-san. That's not allowed. You're not 21. One of my duties here is overseeing underage drinking." He looked at her with a stern face like it was a matter of life or death.

"Not sake?"

"Not sake, Benjamin-san." Miyuki looked at her watch and realized how late she was running. He collected the rest of the paper. Then he said goodbye to Ben and ran to the elevator.

Ben watched his departure. 'A cute Japanese with RA duties ...'
