It's quite an irony that I could get someone to be interested in me through a setback. People always set aim for the good parts.
-This SUCKS!
-Actually it kinda does.
-Screw you weasel!
-Weasel, that hurts. You are the one who's going to make a combo for losing.
-You know what I am not playing anymore. Chess is stupid. Why don't you get some sleep? For real this time.
-Third time is the judgement time. So Ms. Johnson..
-Call me Selina. I don't want to hear any courteous phrase from a world class chess master.
-I'm merely just following your moves and positioning myself.
-Exactly the kind of words you would expect from seasonal champions. Whatever.
-So Ms. Johnson, Selina; when are we headed back to your HQ?
-(Sighs)Maybe in two days...or three? Was planning on doing that sooner; but..
-Hey? Selina, are those for sketching?
-Yeah. They are mine.
-Carry them even in these trips? And there you almost had me convinced that you are strictly professional with no interest in anything else besides job.
-This isn't any fancy and fun trip kid...I, I am going to go take a shower.
-..Yes. By all means.
-...,- Throw the rules out of the window, odds are you will go that way too. A pretty common issue. My whole life had been the epitome of this point. Like why didn't I immediately call Dad and have him take over; as the rule mentioned, I was strictly prohibited from engaging in any actions which may lead to act of violence after the incident until official approval. But there I was again babbling with my suspect of the recent burglary. I felt like having a quick rinse.

-...,- The balcony at the south-west side of my room was the only one with a decent view. Wasting some time at that place after a long bath somehow used to calm me down. Shen looked like he had also gone to sleep. I went past him.
-Hmm,- I let my hair down.
-...,- For a moment it seemed like the guy on my bed was staring at me.
-No matter how many times I have been here, this sunset never fails to get me. Pleasing,- These words came out of my mouth. The five minutes of peace I would try to scavenge out of this world. Sunset sometimes felt like it was talking to me in a way. The alluring appeal, the grace asked me to be better for it's worth to have someone by your side to enjoy this.
-You look beautiful Ms. Selina Johnson,- The voice just came in.
-What? No. Don't. Go to sleep...I'll just pretend I wasn't here only for today.
-What? It was a heartfelt compliment. Are you still angry for earlier?
-No. I am not. Can't get serious over an immature kid. And please, don't get your hopes up.
