Hoofstuk 7: Die opwindende lewe
Steve se luukse moderne woonstel was gevul met lag en musiek. Hy het sjampanje gedrink terwyl hy in die kamer rondgekyk het, gelukkig met die pragtige vroue wat in sy sukses en roem belang gestel het. Hy het met sy vriend Tom gepraat, 'n mede-PUA wat gereeld na sy partytjies gekom het.
"Kan jy dit glo, maat?" sê Steve met 'n glimlag. "Net 'n paar jaar gelede was ek alleen in my kelder en speel met model treine, en kyk nou na dit alles."
Tom lag en lig sy glas. "Ek weet, maat. Dis malligheid. Jy het regtig jou lewe verander, nie waar nie?"
“Beslis,” antwoord Steve, sy oë blink. "En dit is alles as gevolg van 'The Game' en alles wat ek geleer het van 'n optelkunstenaar."
'n Pragtige vrou in 'n stywe rooi rok het na hulle gestap en na Steve gekyk. "Haai, jy is Steve, reg? Die bekende optelkunstenaar?" vra sy, haar stem sag.
Steve glimlag selfversekerd. "Ja, ek is. En wie is jy, liefie?"
“Ek is Jessica,” antwoord sy en drink uit haar glas. "Ek het so baie van jou gehoor, en ek moes net kyk of alles wat hulle sê waar is."
"Wel," sê Steve en kom nader aan haar, "hoekom gaan ons nie iewers stiller, en ek kan jou wys hoe waar dit is nie?"
Jessica het gegiggel en ingestem en Steve gevolg na 'n stiller deel van die woonstel.
Tom het hulle dopgehou en kopskuddend gesê: "Sjoe, hy het regtig ver gekom."
Soos die aand aangegaan het, het Steve die vroue by sy partytjie bly bekoor deur te flirt en te praat. Drankies was oral, en mense was ontspanne.
Steve was saam met 'n groep vroue wat almal met hom wou praat. Hy het hulle vertel van sy avonture wat uitgaan en as 'n optelkunstenaar. Hulle het aandagtig geluister, lief vir sy selfvertroue.
Een vrou, nuuskierig, het gevra: "Mis jy ooit jou ou lewe? Die een voor al hierdie roem en geld?"
Steve dink vir 'n oomblik, sy glimlag verdwyn. "Weet jy wat? Ek dink nie ek doen nie. Ja, dit was eenvoudiger, maar ek was eensaam en ongelukkig. Ek is nou baie gelukkiger."
Die vrou knik en glo hom. Sy het toe met haar vriendin gepraat, en Steve het gedink aan sy reis en die lewe wat hy gemaak het.
Die partytjie het aangehou tot die oggend, met mense wat dans, drink en hulself geniet het. Te midde van die prettige en spoggerige lewe het Steve trots gevoel. Sy dae van modeltreine en alleenwees was ver, vervang deur 'n wêreld van pragtige vroue en wonderlike partytjies. Die lewe was wonderlik, en Steve wou nie teruggaan nie.
Chapter 7: The Exciting Life
Steve's luxurious modern flat was filled with laughter and music. He drank champagne while looking around the room, happy with the beautiful women who were interested in his success and fame. He talked to his friend Tom, a fellow PUA who came to his parties often.
"Can you believe it, mate?" Steve said with a smile. "Just a few years ago, I was alone in my basement, playing with model trains, and now look at all this."
Tom laughed, raising his glass. "I know, mate. It's crazy. You've really changed your life, haven't you?"
"Definitely," Steve replied, his eyes shining. "And it's all because of 'The Game' and everything I've learned from being a pick-up artist."
A beautiful woman in a tight red dress walked over to them, looking at Steve. "Hey, you're Steve, right? The famous pick-up artist?" she asked, her voice soft.
Steve smiled confidently. "Yes, I am. And who are you, love?"
"I'm Jessica," she answered, drinking from her glass. "I've heard so much about you, and I just had to see if everything they say is true."
"Well," Steve said, getting closer to her, "why don't we go somewhere quieter, and I can show you how true it is?"
Jessica giggled and agreed, following Steve to a quieter part of the flat.
Tom watched them go and, shaking his head, said quietly, "Wow, he has really come far."
As the night went on, Steve kept charming the women at his party, flirting and talking. Drinks were everywhere, and people were relaxed.
Steve was with a group of women, all wanting to talk to him. He told them about his adventures dating and as a pick-up artist. They listened carefully, loving his confidence.
One woman, curious, asked, "Do you ever miss your old life? The one before all this fame and money?"
Steve thought for a moment, his smile disappearing. "You know what? I don't think I do. Yes, it was simpler, but I was lonely and unhappy. I'm much happier now."
The woman nodded, believing him. She then talked to her friend, and Steve thought about his journey and the life he had made.
The party went on until the morning, with people dancing, drinking, and enjoying themselves. In the middle of the fun and fancy life, Steve felt proud. His days of model trains and being alone were far away, replaced by a world of beautiful women and amazing parties. Life was great, and Steve didn't want to go back.
