Chapter Five
~~~
In the morning ...
Win woke up first and went directly to his kitchen after doing his morning routine
Book bowed down, "Good morning, sir."
Win greeted back, "Good morning." and he sit on his chair
"They will all wake up any minute by now." Win said, looking at his wrist watch
Then he uttered and asked Book, "Oh, I'm taking Dunk and the twins with me to the sport's complex later. What do you think?"
"That's a good idea, sir. People will like your close relationship with your siblings as they don't get to see all of you together that much." Book's answer
Dew entered the kitchen
Book bowed down, "Good morning, Sir. Dew."
Dew smiled at him, "Hey, good morning, P'Book." then he settled himself down on a chair
"Alright, thanks, Book." Win nodded, taking a sip of his coffee
Win asked his brother, "Where are they? Are they all up already?"
"Yup, they'll be here any second by now." Dew's response
As if on cue, they heard loud laughs coming from the living room
Then the three of them entered the kitchen
Gemni hugged Book,"P'Book!"
Book smiled and gently patted Gemini's back, "Good morning, Sir. Gemini."
"Good morning , P'Book." Phuwin and Dunk smiled at him
Book greeted them back, "Good morning, Sir.Dunk
and Sir. Phuwin."
"All of you sit now. Book will tell you about my schedule for later. And Book, you may please join us eating breakfast." said by Win
Before Book could even say that he's good, Gemini gently dragged him to a chair beside him
Book shyly said, "Thank you, sir."
"Sir. Win's schedule later at 3 PM will be in the city's sports complex; an opening of a basketball league has invited Sir. Win and he decided to take the three of you, Sir. Dunk, Sir. Phuwin, and Sir. Gemini." Book uttered while noting it down on his iPad
Win asked his siblings, "Any violent reaction?"
"No, not at all, phi." Dunk immediately shook his head and smiled
Gemini clapped his hands, "I'm excited!""What? Why do you want to go with me all of a sudden?" Bright looked at his brother Joong who was pleading him to take him to the city's sports complex later
Joong looked away, "Uh, ahm, ..."
"Dunk wouldn't even be there —" Bright cut himself off when he realized something
Bright asked, "Win is taking Dunk with him, right?"
Joong slowly nodded, "Yes, phi." then Bright sighed
"Don't you see him often? It seems like you're missing him that much." said by Bright, plopping down on his swivel chair
He was already stressed out early in the morning
"I saw him last week. He was so busy that we couldn't even meet even just for a short time, I'll just see him again today, well, if you'd only take me with you, phi." Joong pouted and gave his brother his 'puppy look'
Bright was about to speak when a knock cuts him off
Bright asked through the intercom, "Yes, Force?"
Then Force asked, "Sir. Pond is here, sir. Should I send him in now?"
"You gotta be kidding me." Bright let out and another deep breath before speaking again, "Yes, thank you, Force." then he laid back on his chair
Pond entered Bright's office
"Phi, can I come with —" Pond cut himself off when he saw Joong
Pond asked him, "Oh, what are you doing here?"
Bright answered, "The same thing you are here for." and the two looked at him
"And I'm telling you two that it's not a good idea." Bright shook his head
And he added, "Win might think that I'm copying him."
"We'll make it look like you didn't know that we're gonna come." suggested by Joong
Bright sighed for the nth time, "Alright, alright. Just this time, you two got it?" he pointed a finger at them
The two clapped and gladly noddedBright arrived first in the city's sports complex
The program is just about to start when he got inside
The host immediately acknowledged his presence
Bright smiled and waved at the people as Force leaded him to his seat
Bright sit down and looked around
'He's not here yet, huh?' Bright thought
Then it didn't take a while for the one that Bright has been waiting for to arrive
The host acknowledged Win's presence
As Bright already knows, Win arrived with his younger brothers
Win smiled, waved, and bowed at the people
Book leaded him to their seats
Bright and Win's seats are in the below bench, in the middle
While their siblings and secretary would be in the bench behind them
He wondered why his seat had to be beside Bright's
Meaning, he has to walk in front of Bright
While doing so, Bright couldn't hide his smirk
Win simply rolled his eyes at him
Gemini whispered to Win, "Phi, you meet a lot of people like this everyday?"
Win looked back at him and nodded
Gemini reacted, "Woah."
Then they heard the crowd screaming that caused them to look at the entrance
Joong, who is a famous model, just arrived with Pond
Win widened his eyes and Bright simply swallowed the lump in his throat
Force met them halfway and leaded them to their seats
Joong and Pond politely bowed at Win
Win just nodded at them
'Why are they here as well?' Win wondered.
Meanwhile, Dunk and Phuwin were nervous in their seats
They simply widened their eyes at Joong and Pond, who just showed them a cute expression
The program started and Win is the first one to say his opening speech
Win started, "Good morning, everyone." then he continued with a smile, "I would like to welcome all of you to this year's basketball league. I'm sure we are all excited. Thank you so much for inviting me. I even got to take my siblings with me."
Win finished his short opening speech, "Good luck to all of the players, I'd be cheering every one of you on. Thank you once again, and have a good day ahead." then the crowd clapped
Win bowed down before going back to his seat
"Phi, you were so cool!" said by Gemini
Phuwin added, "I couldn't believe you're my brother for a second there!"
"Two thumbs up just for you, P'Win!" Dunk said as he gave Win two thumbs up
Win chuckled, shaking his head because of his brothers' silliness
Bright stoped himself from smiling
