"Lisa" I heard someone said while shaking me lightly so I started to open my eyes seeing Jennie's brother right in front of my face smiling widely.
"Let's eat! " he said and distance himself out of my face while clapping like a kid
"Ouch" I said as I lift my head and my neck started aching. I looked at the wall clock and saw that it's already 8 in the evening.
"How long have you been sleeping there? You should've slept on the couch" he said carrying a chair right next to me.
"Probably 7 hours" I said making him widened his eyes as he put the chair beside me
"Aigoo " he said looking at me "I'll ask someone to get some ice since you might've got a stiff neck" he said and walk out of the office probably talking to Jennie's secretary. I pull my phone out of my pocket and Jennie didn't even text me.
"Jennie's on a meeting, she's just a workaholic. Did you brought that for her? " he asks pointing at the food making me nod.
"I brought it for lunch" I said keeping my neck rested on the chair since it hurts.
"Let's eat that then, so it won't go to waste" he said excitedly "you know I'm Chinese so I love Chinese foods" he said squinting his eyes making me chuckle
"It's already cold tho" I said but he reached out to get it and started opening it all up
"Doesn't matter... It's still food" he said putting the other one in front of me. "Jennie's probably too busy that she didn't go here and saw you. " he said explaining it for Jennie and I just kept quiet and told him that we should start eating
Jackson and I ate the Chinese foods and I can tell you how happy he is while eating everything and it makes me chuckle. He's probably the total opposite of Jennie but their genes are just out of this world.

Once we finished eating we waited for a couple of minutes before the secretary went in to give Jackson the ice pack then he gave it to me and I thanked him and put it on my neck. After a couple more hours all we did was talking about each other like the funny things he did when he was a child up until now and all his embarrassing moments... Jackson is undeniably talkative, unlike Jennie which makes me think if they're siblings. I mean I saw it in an article that they just have the same dad but still...
"How's your neck? " he asked since I stopped putting some ice earlier and it's already 10 in the evening and Jennie's not back yet.
"Better" I said making him nod
"Do you play video games? " he asked
"Well, my best friend plays a lot of video games so she taught me... So yeah" I said. He stood up from his seat and gestures to follow him as he takes a sit on the couch right in front of a large TV.
"I mostly go here when Jennie's not here and I told her I'll just play video games cause her TV's bigger than the one in my office" he said getting two consoles and giving me one
"Aren't you here to work not play video games? " I asked making him chuckle as he sits next to me making sure he put enough space between us to make me comfortable which I appreciate a lot.
"I'm done with my work for this day already... It's just that Jennie's an incoming CEO and she's workaholic" he says making me laugh as well as we started playing some video games while he keeps making exaggerated reactions which make me laugh all the time. After a couple of hours of playing, we heard the door open while we're still focused on the game and he keeps shouting making me laugh so hard.

"Jackson, can you stop that? " I heard Jennie's voice from behind making Jackson shut up as he pouted making me chuckle
"Lisa let's go" she said authoritatively but Jackson immediately looked at me and shake his head
"I'll die if you won't help me" he said making me chuckle once more "Jennieyah let us finish this game then you can go" he shouted so that Jennie can hear it.
"I'll go... Walk if you want to" Jennie said as I heard her probably putting her stuff on her bag
"I'll just drive her home then" Jackson offered and for like the whole 5 minutes I heard nothing and we just kept on playing and when we're done I looked back seeing Jennie sitting on her chair while looking at her phone.
"I thought you went home already... I can drive Lisa back to your penthouse " Jackson said while shutting everything off
"Well I didn't" she said in a straight face and stood up and started walking out.
"I can't understand my sister sometimes" he said sighing making me chuckle "go now Lisa or you'll walk home" he said
"Thank you for accompanying me Jackson, I'll go now. Drive safely" I said and waved to him before running out to walk beside Jennie.
"Did you had your dinner already? " I asked while we're at the elevator and she just nodded and pull her phone out paying attention to it so I just nodded and put my hands on my pocket.
When we arrived back home Kuma immediately runs towards us and I scoop him up hugging him "baby Kuku " I said and started walking towards the living room while Jennie immediately walks upstairs.
It will be hard or it must be hard for those people who became her boyfriend. I can't understand her most of the time. After a couple of minutes I decided to go upstairs with Kuma following me and when I open up my door I saw Kuma go straight to Jennie's room but it's closed so I walk towards Jennie's room and knocked
"Kuma wants to go in... " I informed her and open up the door seeing Jennie sitting on her bed while watching TV with her arms crossed and she looked at me but put her gaze away immediately when she saw me.
Why the hell does she look intimidating while watching?

Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?
