Venice, Pete and Vegas were in the living room when the doorbell rang.
"I've got it" Pete stood up and went to see who was at the door. Vegas thanked without looking up from his book.
A moment later Pete was coming back into the living room while talking to someone.
"Vegas, Joe's here" Pete entered the room followed by a man and also a little boy. Both bowed down to greet Vegas who nodded to greet them back while closing the book.
"Tee?" Venice asked when he looked at their guests and recognised the boy.
"You two know each other?" Vegas asked surprised while standing up.
"We are classmates" Venice nodded and Tee nodded a bit as well, clearly surprised to see the new kid in Vegas's house.
"Really? Oh... that's nice" Pete smiled.
"So how about you keep Tee company then? So he's not bored while waiting for us to finish" Vegas looked at his son who looked at Tee.
"It's alright, Khun Vegas, I don't want to bother you or Venice like that" Tee declined politely.
"You'll not bother me" Venice shook his head and jumped to his feet from the armchair where he was sitting.
"Is it ok, Joe? If Tee will go play with Venice?" Pete looked at their guest.
"Of course" Joe nodded "If he wants to, of course" he added and looked at the boy who shrugged a bit before he followed Venice who told him that they can go to his room.

"What can I offer you, Joe?" Pete asked while the three men entered Vegas's office to go over the numbers.
"Porsche gifted me a delicious scotch you should try" Vegas looked at Joe.
"You know I'll never say no to a good scotch, Vegas" Joe nodded while taking the folder with some papers from his briefcase.
"I've got it, Vegas" Pete told Vegas and went to pour the drinks so Vegas could focus on his work.
"Thank you, love" Vegas smiled, took the papers from Joe and went to the shelf to take out the folder with the needed papers.
"So... you decided to adopt before getting married?" Joe asked.
"What?" Vegas asked while looking for the page he needed.
"The boy?" Joe asked and nodded at Pete as thank you for the drink Pete handed him.
"Oh... Venice, no he's not... he's not adopted" Pete shook his head and glanced at Vegas a few times not sure what Vegas wanted Joe to know.
"He's my son. Don't ask, you wouldn't believe me anyway" Vegas looked at Joe.
"Your son... he does look like you" Joe admitted while thinking about the family resemblance he saw when he looked at Venice earlier.
"Let's hope the look is all we have in common" Vegas joked and Pete and Joe laughed.
"I didn't know Tee was going to the same school as Venice" Pete said.
"I want the kid to have the best education possible. Being smart does pay off and it can do you more good than knowing how to handle a gun" Joe shrugged and Pete smiled at hearing that while Vegas was nodding in agreement.
"I can tell Tee to keep an eye on Venice at school" Joe offered them.
"I don't think it's needed, but thank you" Vegas shook his head while looking at the papers Joe brought.
