Chapter 8 - While Success Is At Hand,,, Never Let It Go...

With just a few videos, the boy got a good offer to promote.

This is normal because someone wants to take advantage of the situation where he's hot with his followers.

Because most of the time, a content creator loses their fame as time goes by.

So after seeing that the boy's videos consistenly get more than five million views, will seige the opportunity to use his temporary fame.

Lee in his own room, busy reediting his video for tomorrow.

He keeps thinking of the bonus which is every two million views will gives him a new phone, the latest model of famous brand.

So he want to think of a way to have more views, suddenly thought of the banana tree that has matured fruit and ready to be harvest at their garden.

There's a plan tomorrow so he can rest his mind now.

Mei also came to be with her lover childhood friend.

Went to hug him as usual and quickly fell asleep.

Night passed quickly for the boy to be awaken by his body clock.

Left Mei alone and head out with his things used in making videos.

Waited for the sunrise before he start recording.

With his shirt covering his face like a ninja, went to focus the camera to the thick trunk of a banana tree, to show that it's solid and tough.

After that, went to set up the phone on the tripod stand.

In front the camera, did a few strentching like those protagonist in an anime before a fights.

With a posture to fight, went to punch a straight and immediately made a fist dent on the trunk.

Next is his killer hook and brutally remove some parts.

Followed by a left hook and right again repeatedly, unxpectedly let the thick trunk lose a big part and eventually bents down.

The boy then took a bolo and cut down the whole fruit in a cool way, raise it like he cut the enemy's head in a movie.

After a few pose, went to stop recoding.

Didn't forget to totally cut down the banana plant not to snatch nutrients from the others anymore, let the leaves and trunks as fertilizer.

As for the fruit, will be sold later in the market.

Back to the house, only his mother is awake.

Because it's holiday, everyone will wake up late.

The boy found a good spot and start reediting his video for the day, will only insert the content he just recorded earlier.

When he finished, didn't upload right away and will wait for evening to come.

Even if there's an special occassion called All Saints Day, the boy went to work.

It's another hoeing job where he went to record and will be use in the future, will take intervals in uploading similar contents.

The field he need to hoe is wide so it took him the whole day, asked the wage before heading home.

With additional seven family members, and this childhood friend, the home become more lively.

Like a good wife, Mei went to welcome, head to the kitchen together and accompany the boy to eat his dinner.

After that, left him alone to his room and went to join the girls in the house.

Now that it's night, the boy went to upload his video with the caption: "How I, Baki the Farmer havest a banana fruit and hoe someone's field to earn entra income", "My fifth video which very important to me", "Please everyone, watch and share to have more views", "Thank you".

After uploading, the boy won't lie that he feel nervous.

To distract himself, went to chat with his girlfriend Kozue.

The topic went to the boy's latest video on the middle of the conversation and this online girlfriend suddenly;

"You promise to meet me when I visit the Philippines and I promise to help you gain more followers and viewers."

The request is simple for the boy to;

"I will meet you even if you don't promise anything. I just want to know the purpose of the visit."

The message was sent but no immediate reply.

Lee waited until;

"You should know already but just want to make sure. In that case, let me make it clear to you. I want to know you more and see if we are compatible. To be honest, I like the character Baki that's why I followed you and keep chatting until now. So I want to know the real you and maybe, we are a match."

This time, the boy took some time before;

"I understand but before everything, are you okay with polygyny: a man who have multiple wives."

Once again, there's no immediate answer for almost a minute.

Lee waited and didn't expect to receive a reply saying;

*It's illegal here in Japan unless we will not make it official. But of course, it will only happen if we are compatible with each other. After all, you're fifteen and I'm fourteen so there's still a long way to go."

"Well, I will try not to disappoint you. Just give me an early heads-up. And let's not reveal our appearance to be more exciting to meet."

"Okay,,, it made me excited already."

Went to chat for another ten minutesbefore saying goodbye.

The boy doesn't like to keep checking his video and quickly went to log out.

Instead, search for informative videos to improve his knowledge.

Late at night, this Ex-girlfriend came to rest.

The two fell asleep hugging each other but when the boy woke up, Mei rolled around to leave his arms.

This is good not to wake her up when he leaves the bed.

Put on his jogging outfit and went to run.

Didn't record this time and focus in running.

Use the marathon event with five hundred thousand first prize as his motivation.

With his knockoff watch on his wrist, will time himself to know if he's improving.

Use the highway sidewalk as his tract as he keep a certain pace like those professional runners...
