"What? Are you a human or a robot? We can't just do all that! Not in the little time we have! It's impossible! I am already neck deep in workload! We all are" Bas was exclaiming in panic. Sometimes, this third brother of his had the weirdest ideas. How could be possibly think of getting all those things done in such less time and that too just for a demo?

Tae let out a sigh. "I'll do it myself, you and Bright, just lend me few of your team members for testing results" he said looking at the three men sitting with him at the meeting desk. He had called a head programmers' meeting earlier to discuss the fine tuning compression of the game for all types of users.

"Ah, great" Bas went hysterical at the guy's commitment to the idea and started clapping. "Don't you pity yourself?"

"Theoretically, it's not impossible" G.T spoke in his deep, baritone voice as he gave Tae a blank look. "But alone, you can't. I'll work with you" he said and Tae nodded, making Bas gasp.

"Ah, okay! Okay! Fine! I'll work on it!" Bas said hastily, making a dissatisfied face at Tae. "You! You already are near killing your brain cells with work! I'll do it for you!" he said and shot G.T a glare while Tae raised an eyebrow.

Really now? For me? You take me for a fool? He smirked at his little brother who, getting flustered by that smirk, hastily looked away from him.

"Wh-what?" Bas grumbled at him once Bright and G.T were gone.

Tae just shook his head, his smirk only widening. "Ah, nothing. Just glad you're so willing to do things for me without any complains nowadays. I think first brother was right all along"

Bas blinked innocently. "About?"

Tae moved and leaned forward, arms resting on the meeting table as he eyed his little friend. "It was a great decision to hire G.T. He influences your... work abilities" he said pointedly and Bas blushed.

"Wh-what... what's that su-supposed to mean? I-I can't work w-without him? Huh?" Bas exclaimed, stuttering. "HEY! How dare you guys? I work alright!"

Tae nodded and stood up. "If you say so" with that he walked away, smiling to himself and leaving Bas to whine and shout after him.

G.T looked up from his computer to find a sulky Bas sitting in front of him, huffing and puffing and hitting his desk with his massager.

"Stupid! Idiot! As if! Huh! Idiot! Aaaghh!" Bas let out a huff and sighed deeply, being done with his little tantrum and tired. He cleared his itchy throat, massaging it and thinking of getting up to get water. As if being summoned by magic, a water bottle appeared in front of him.

He blinked, a wide smile spreading on his face as he took it and gulped it down. "Ah, thanks..." he looked up to find the tall figure of G.T hover over him, his dark eyes staring down at him with a frown.

Bas blinked again. And then, he threw himself at the guy, wrapping his limbs around him as if hugging a pole and wailing without tears. "G.T! They are all mean to me!"

G.T stiffened. He looked down at the small thing hugging him. His face not changing a bit as he patted the boy's head who looked up at him with puppy eyes and a pouty face. "You don't make fun of me, right?"

G.T shook his head without a moment of hesitation and Bas beamed at him, tightening his hug around the taller guy. "Aww... I knew it! I love you!" he said and just shamelessly smacked a kiss on the older guy's belly, making him widen his eyes in shock.

"Ah! You're up!" New exclaimed seeing Tee all up and busy in the kitchen. "Are you okay now? Oh, what do we have for breakfast?" of course, his attention went to the more important thing.
