Golden axe, Silver axe

"Oh, what a fine day!" A young lad strolled with a spring in each step. Donned in a clean outfit but a little dull from the repeated wash.

However, his outfit failed to hide the glowed in his face. His steps were fast and steady but never hurried.

"Good morning, Sis! What is for breakfast today?". He gave a greeting when he entered the dining area. Two long rows of plates and cups arranged on the long table. While in the kitchen a young lady bit past her teens was busy with her pots and ladles.

"Morning to you too,.. you're early today, what is the occasion?" the young lady said with a bright smile on her face. The perspiring forehead and few stray hairs failed to hide her lovely face. He knew this young lady from a very young age. Sister Clara or "Big Sis" work in the orphanage as long as he remembers. They sent her to this orphanage since she lost her family in an arson robbery incident. Then, after coming of age, she volunteers to take care of young orphans while studying part-time in the community college.

"Nothing much, just going out to update my vlogs and might drop by the stores afterwards. Do you need anything from the store?".

Walked out from the kitchen with an enormous plate of bread in one hand and a gigantic bowl of gravy in the other, Clara laid her eyes on the adolescent boy.

"Get me some watercolours for the kids, you realize how they love to paint." after she placed the plate and bowl on the table, Clara pauses in front of the adolescent man and helps him straighten the crooked collars.

"Arent you look dashing?. No one will believe you are only 13 years old boy when you're already taller than me." Clara walked towards the fridge after done fixing his collar.

"So Matt, Milk and cheese as usual to start your day?"

"Yes please, and I'm 14 in a couple of weeks!" with an emphasized in the word "fourteen", Matt took a seat near the kitchen counter and placed a slice of bread in his plate. "It's the genetics. You see how tall Dad is, and all my brothers also as tall as a basketball player".

A giggle escaped Clara's mouth while she poured milk in Matts cup. "Any news from Dad?" asked Clara. "I haven't seen him in the past 2 months, also that rascal team, Jack and Jason."

Clara called Matt's parent as Mom and Dad since forever. While the pair Jack and Jason was Matt's brother, they seem like a twin but actually a year apart. They worked with Dad's company and developed new smartphones and electronic gadgets.

Gulped down a mouthful of milk, Matt used his hand to wipe his mouth. "Nope, not a word. Mom and Brad will stop by Dad's laboratory before coming here, maybe you can ask them later". To finish his breakfast, Matt stuffed the last piece of bread into his mouth. Walking to the sink, Matt drank his cup of milk. Washing dishes was becoming a habit for Matt in the morning.

"Thanks for the meal Sis, see you later".

Clara observed the skinny boy back disappeared behind the kitchen door. This adolescent boy had peculiar habits, come and go from the orphanage back door, using a hand to wipe his mouth, and love to wear the same piece of cloth until worn-out. Mom or Clara had to throw the worn-out clothes away before Matt change to a recent one.

With 165 cm height, Matt was taller than his peers. His Father was 203 cm and his 3 brothers around 195 to 210 cm. As they said, it runs in the blood.

Matt was on his route to the bus stop. He picked an old branch from the road and dumped it in the rubbish bin. With little thought, he also helped a grandma to cross a road and accompanied her to the wet market entrance. Then he stood in line for the bus at the bus stops. This minor act of kindness brought joy to his heart.

Today he was planning to update his vlog content at the lake. Usually, there will be a lot of visitors and stalls by the lake.

Matt took out a smartphone from his pocket and scrutinized his vlogs dashboard. His vlogs had more than 100k subscribers and generated a lot of pocket money every month with millions of views. If anyone paid attention to his hand, the smartphone in Matt's hand was not a common model. His father company prototyped this and developed from his brothers' research. Its functionality in video recording and editing enhanced and equipped with 3 times battery capacity. Jack and Jason asked him to test and experienced the difference.

A bus approached the bus stop. After all the passengers got down, Matt and other people embark the bus. Matt chose a seat near the door so he can get off easier. In front of his seat, an old man hauled an enormous bag. Matt estimated the weight must be over 20 kg. Matt proceeded with recording the journey with his smartphone just to past his time on the bus.

A few stops later, all seats were full but still got passenger get on the bus. Tore his sight from his recordings, Matt saw a pregnant lady among other standing passengers. He quickly offered his seat to the said lady. Only 15 minutes later he had already arrived at the destination.

"So where do I start recording".
