Rich & Wicked

Act 3 : Episode 3 - The Game is Finally Launching!

[SHIN POV]

“Butler Ko, I need you to drive me there”, I said as I was wearing my watch.

“As you wish, Master Shin”, he bowed his head. “Then let me prepare the car for you”,he requested.

“Sure, go ahead”, I was checking myself out in the mirror as I said it.

Butler Ko left. This outfit is actually good but without those extra accessories, the gloves looks cool though, I should try it. I look at the mirror as I wear the glove and pose like a mafia boss. “Well, the real deal, I will use this”, I said. I was about to go out when the cane caught my attention. “Maybe I should bring that too”, I bought the cane and went outside.

“GOOD MORNING MASTER SHIN”, the servants greeted me and bowed their heads.

I saw Butler Ko and he comes after me, “Master Shin, what about your breakfast?”, he said.

“I am not going to eat”. I replied as I played with the cane.

“How about I make you a cheese sandwich and a yogurt milk?”, he said.

“Hmm, okay”

Butler Ko opened the car door for me and I went inside. Butler ko then entered the driver seat.”Master Shin, I will prepare it after we got there”, he said.

“Okay, just go. I don’t want to be late and a special day”, I said.

“Yes, Master Shin”, Butler Ko immediately runs the car and we were on our way to the lair.

[CHAN YU POV]

“So, what do you think? Is it alright with you?”, I said to Min Min.

She had a long pause before answering, “Is this really the only way?” she asked.

“We had no way but this only, I already calculated everything and figured out how Jin will counter it. He wants this so bad and we are just giving it to him”

“I see, okay, this what Master Shin wants after all plus I don’t want to lose the stake. I can’t affor to lose and go disappointing Master Shin”, she said as she was looking down.

“Great answer!”, I smirked. “Now, let’s cover this with a contract and a shake of hands”, I offered her my hand.

She looked at my hand, still hesitating to agree, “Come on, it’s for our own good Min Min”, I said to her.

She already made the call, she accepted my negotiation, “I have no choice”, we shake hands.

I stood up and went to my office table “Now, let’s make it official in the contract”, I took contract papers and two pieces of the pen.

I gave her the contract papers and a pen then I sat down, “Here, sign this and the agreement will take effect, I said to her.

She took the papers and checks the contents, “Sir Chan, this is for good right?”, she asked.

“Of course! I will never have told you if it doesn’t do us good”, I assured her.

“Right”, she finally made a decision and signed the paper.

I got excited knowing that she will do it for me, I look at her signing as I was smiling. We exchanged papers, signs, checks, inspects and finally got to the conclusion, “I think that was all of it, let’s seal it with a final handshake”, I gave my hand.

She took my hands and the negotiation finally taken effect.

*ring* *ring* *ring*

I heard my phone ringing on my office table, I stood up to check who it is, it was Jin, “Hey, are you on your way now?”, I asked him.

“Yeah, we just entered the cave”, what he is already here?

“You’re already here?”, I asked him. 

“What? Why are surprised”

“Go and prepare now, he is here”, I whispered to Min Min.

Min Min went back to the playhouse, “Of course I am, you are always not in time but this time you are early”, I said to him.

“Today is a special day, of course, I will be early”

“Aight, Imma head out to you”, I said and hanged up the phone.

I went outside and waited for him at the entrance of the playhouse, “Everybody fixed up! Jin is here!”, I reminded the staff.

The door opened and there he is with his stunning look, “WELCOME BACK MASTER SHIN”, the staff greeted him and bowed.

“Wow, what a nice outfit. You did suit up for your new game hah?”, his black outfit really is cool.

“Yeah, cool right. The designer who made this just got fired”, he smiled.

“Eh? You like it but you fired him?”, I was confused.

“Yeah, if he wasn’t so extra in the design, I wouldn’t have fired him”, he answered.

“I see. But, what is up with a cane? Are you an old man?”, he look at me intently and smash the tip of the cane on my left foot.

“Ow! I was just kidding you crazy bastard”, I said as touch my foot to relieve the pain.

“Crazy bastard!? I am?”, he kick my knee.

“Ow! What the hell is wrong with you!?

“Oh sorry about that, it’s my reflexes?”,  he smiled.

“Reflexes my ass”, I murmured.

He then went to the center and sat on his chair, “Is the data ready?”, he asked.

“Yup, all ready and waiting for your command”, I replied.

“Great, shall we start?”, he said as he plays with his cane.

“Anytime Jin”, I leaned on the top of his chair.

“Sir, here is your cheese sandwich and yogurt milk, please consume it before starting the game so you will have enough energy to play”, Butler Ko hands it to him.

“You are too excited that you forgot to eat your breakfast huh?”, I chuckled.

“Shut up, Chan”, he was annoyed.

“Ughh, the baby boy is drinking his milk, so cute”, I teased him.

“Do you want to die?”, his face was threatening terror.

I gulped, “Ah, no thanks”, I smiled and fear and look straight ahead to avoid his terrifying gazed

He stood up and stomp his cane on the floor and made a loud sound that surrounded the space of the playroom, everything was silenced, “Are you ready!”, he shouted.

“Are you all ready for the next level of fun!?, he shouts like he was a commander of an army. Well, I guess it is like that.

“HOOOH!”, and they answered the call like they were a legion.

“Ready!”, waah the charisma of this guy.

“Set!”, here we go!

“Play!”, and there it is, a word that started the new game or shall I say an upcoming war.
