My Hitman System

Outside Bluebird Theatre,

Jin was currently stuck in a dilemma. He was looking at the three movies flashed on the giant screen just above the theatre building.

One was action involving a lot of fighting, another one was suspense and thriller about a detective and the last one was a romantic one.

Jin's countenance soured as he looked at them. Like any other man, he had been an avid fan of action and thriller movies, however, his preference suddenly changed.

He was looking for a movie from the slice-of-life genre, but now that his life was filled with actions and suspense he no longer was interested in watching such movies...he wanted a breather.

Unfortunately, the only one that came close to that genre was a romantic movie. It was not like he hated such movies but after trying them a couple of times Jin deliberately avoided watching such movies.

They invoked a sense of loneliness inside him which was second to the one he felt whenever he thought about his parents.

He knew that with the way he was before, there was no hope for him to find a woman, get married, make kids and see them grow. He never dared to entertain such a thought.

He was barely able to maintain himself with his meagre salary so the thought of maintaining someone else aswell was frightening to him.

He wanted to go back home but a sudden thought held him back. Now that his economic status had become better compared to before would he still despise watching a romantic movie? All those uncles and aunties working at school were married...so it wasn't such an unrealistic dream.

Jin hesitated at the entrance for a couple of minutes but finally decided to try the movie. He walked into the counter and bought the ticket.

"How many tickets do you want sir?" The woman behind the counter asked.

"One" Jin replied.

She raised her gaze which was earlier directed towards the computer screen to look at Jin. It was weird for a man to watch a romantic movie alone so she was surprised a bit before replying.

"Alright sir," She processed the tickets and soon gave them to Jin.

Jin took the ticket and soon found his way into the hall. He had been to a theatre before with his parents. The memory of that time which was almost on the verge of dissipating was once again revitalized by his sudden visit.

The good times he spent with them during that time were coming back to him.

A smile appeared on his face as a result.

'It wasn't a waste in the end,' Jin thought to himself. Even if the movie wasn't up to his liking at least he got to cherish these memories once again after coming in here.

Jin soon found his seat. It was on the front row. The movie was released today only and all the rest of the seats were all the other good seats were booked by the time Jin arrived.

As a result, he had to be satisfied with this corner seat in the front row. "Heh! At least there's a lot of space..." Jin tried to console himself.

The crowd slowly started filling up the room and before long everyone was seated. Jin could see that there were a lot of couples there. From the whisperings he heard so far, they had all been waiting for this movie for a long time.

This raised Jin's hope for the movie and he started looking forward to it. The lights dimmed and the advertisements started playing on the big screen indicating that it was almost time for the movie to premiere.

Just then Jin noticed a woman entering from the sides in a hurry.

"Number 9 Number 9...there it is!" She rushed towards her seat and after nestling herself to her seat properly she sighed, "Thankfully, the movie hasn't started...I waited for months for this day it would be a pity if I missed it,"

Jin didn't put the mutterings of his neighbour to his mind and tilted his head up to look at the big screen. That was the plight of those who sat in the first row but Jin wasn't very inconvenienced by it.

The movie soon started.

The movie starts with an accidental encounter between the male lead and the female. They got into a conflict due to some reasons and their first meeting ends on a sour note.

The female soon realizes that the man with whom she had got into a conflict was her new manager in the following days. Embarrassment takes over her and she goes to the man to apologize to him.

The man takes advantage of the situation and starts overworking her from that point on. The two's relationship worsens even further and finally, the woman resigns.

The man realizes that he might have overstepped his boundaries and goes to the woman's home to apologize to him. He realizes that she has a younger brother who's been affected by cancer.

Guilt overtakes the man and tries to make the woman join back but she refuses because she feels it humiliating. After a series of tries the woman finally accepts it and from then on office romance takes place from time to time and a few years later the two get married.

'Is this even interesting...' Jin thought to himself as he looked around. The actors looked good so Jin could understand why they would fall in love with each other...but that's all...he looked around him and saw that everyone including his neighbour had their eyes engrossed in the movie.

'Maybe I'll find something interesting if I keep watching' With this thought Jin continued to watch.

Jin had thought a climax would occur but it didn't...the two leads just got married and had children and the movie ended with the two of them seeing their children grow older and experience life.

When the movie ended cheers started pouring out, making Jin question everyone's sanity.

"What a load of horseshit..." Jin muttered to himself in annoyance and made his way out of the theatre hall.

He heard hurried footsteps from behind and thought that somebody might be controlling their bladder for a long time but he was wrong.

When the steps were almost near him it stopped and he heard a woman's voice.

"Wait!"
