-Reunion?-

'With so many beautiful women with bodies in our university that you can easily win over, why did you choose me? You are very academic, athletic, and most of all handsome you will come a long way in life. Compared to me, I'm fat, ugly, not smart. What did you really see in me?' The woman said, resting her head on the man's shoulder beside her pouting.

'Once our baby is born, i will tell y- Babe! I almost got a Quadra.' The man didn't finish his word when the woman punched him on the side while playing a game on his phone.

'You! How should i handle you, huh.' The man said as he grinned and kissed the woman.'

'What about the game?'

'I got bored, so be sure to take responsibility now!'

'Nooo!'

*Honk!!!*

The sound of a honking car woke Jc up from his dreams, holding his sore head as it had been, laying on the window glass for a long time.

Pat - "Sorry about that, we are here."

Jc - "I'm fine. Why are there so many media people here?" Looking outside, he saw many people holding cameras, big or small, with or without waiting outside in a small building.

Maneuvering the car to avoid the crowd, and drove to the side of the building down to an underground parking lot.

"Boss, the manager is here. He is bringing the recruit." A voice of a man came knocking outside.

"I'll be down in a minute." Emily automatically responds, sitting on her office chair, busy looking at a picture inside the wallet.

She slightly smiled as she took out an ID card from the wallet and dialed the number on the card.

*Ring*

*Ring*

*Ring*

"Yea, who's this?"

"Sorry for the repeated calls. I seemed to have found your wallet."

"Send me the address."

The call ended.

Emily stares at the ID for a long while. She only got pulled from reality again when a message arrived.

'Address?'

She replied with the address and what she was wearing.

'I'm close. Let's meet outside of the entrance.'

"*Why is he nearby? Did he go to 'Rank Boost' in a client's house near here?*" Emily kept thinking as she went out of her office. Ever since she finally found Jc through her brother, she has been stalking him for a week now to know his lifestyle. And what he was doing, sometimes she has to wait for 3 hours or so for him to finish a client's 'Rank Boost'.

Standing just across the building with still reporters blocking the entrance, Emily uses the building's secret passage to leave. Originally it was for the pro players of the club to go out without being noticed, and now she uses it too due to being convenient.

Even though she can hide the identity that she was the boss of the club, but she can't hide her beauty in front of so many cameras with only sunglasses and a face mask. Her figure and fashion alone emit a celebrity vibe already.

Despite that, she would be interrupted by countless reporters to get a headline and ask if she was a celebrity. Emily is already used to this and knows her ways to dodge inquiries.

"He's late." Looking at the time on the phone. She texted Jc again that she has been waiting for him for almost half an hour, and briefly, a call came, and about to throw a tantrum, but when she saw the name, her face immediately darkens.

Emily - "What is it?"

Pat - "Did something? Wait, why do i feel like a servant today? You guys planned this?! I'm still your big brother, you know!"

Emily rolled her eyes and said.

"A month pay deduction."

"Ehem! Ms. Lee, i wanted to inform you that someone needs your approval here."

Emily giggled, hearing her brother's changed of voice.

"Who are you calling Ms. Lee... No! Is he there right now?!"

"*Is that the reason why he said he's nearby? That's not the point! You tried to make me wait for half an hour?!* Emily rushes back to the building.

"Welcome to the training hall of XK Gaming." When they entered, Jc was surprised by the size of the players' training hall. It was massive. They have Tarpaulins of game characters, large or small game figurines in every corner of the room, and pictures of the professional players of the club on the wall and the main attraction of the room were the middle is a circular gaming setup that can be, used by 10 players.

They sometimes use it to practice with other teams they partnered with to play a training match. If they can win the national league this year, they also plan to build a training ground for aspiring players who wants to take a shot to be a professional.

"Guys, I want to introduce you- GUYS!!... Okay, you force me to do this." Pat walked to a desk near them, and there he turned one of the facing figurines to the left, and few seconds passed. The sound of a siren all over the hall woke the players up.

Three players looked at Pat at Jc below as one of them lean on the glass fence as you see on the malls and drowsily said.

clap1x - "Manager, do you know what time is it... It's not even mor-*yawn*-ning. "

Drunk - "Is that the person you are talking about, Manager Pat?

Pat - "Yes, come down. Let me introduce you to all you're soon-to-be family."

Drunk - "Daebak!" He excitedly said as he runs down the stairs, followed by the still half asleep clap1x and the cold, aloof Ashe.

They haven't noticed that a woman is standing fuming with anger at the hall's entrance.

Jc, fortunately, caught a glimpse of a fast-flying object getting close to him. He bends down, making it look like he was tying his shoelace.

Pat was all smiling as he introduced Jc to the team when he suddenly saw him bend down. And that's the only thing he will remember once he wakes up.

Jc stands up with his hands in his pocket and looks at Emily, who was likewise looking at him without even care that his brother was unconscious besides Jc, and out of the three only clap1x was waking him up.
