Life is a Game

Let's Begin

"Filip, come quick. I don't want to be left out!" a blue eyed girl with red hair said while tugging at the hand of a man that was checking his watch.

"Yes, yes. I am just making sure that I'll have time to go to my meeting. Besides, do you even have the slightest clue that you're overreacting?" the man known as Filip said as he tried to catch up. The girl which had a tight grip on his hand walked in the fastest way possible, dodging heads and arms paying no heed to the man she was dragging along.

"Of course I'm overreacting! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity Filip." she said her pace not slowing causing the man to mutter sorry's and excuse me's, "They are giving only TEN free machines that makes you see, hear, feel, and taste things that is not even there. Amazing, right?"

"Are you -sorry- talking about the -oops excuse me- virtual reality -oh my bad- helmets I've heard about?"

"Yes, bruh!"

"Excuse me but," Filip coughed meaningfully before he spoke again. He pushed his glasses up his nose causing his black hair to move and cover one of his eyes giving him a scary aura. "Can you please slow down, Jill." he said in a menacing voice.

The instant she heard her brother say her name she started to slowly look behind her shoulder, expecting to see the worst expression on her brother's face. When she looked back she saw her brother give her a menacing glare. Taking this as a warning, she immediately let go of Filip's wrist and swallowed a lump in her throat, "You do know that you're scaring me, right?" she said while looking ahead trying to avoid her brother's gaze.

"And you do know that I can get fired and lose a job because of this?" the raven-haired man said while straightening his suit coat and making sure that there were no stains on it.

"I'm sorry but, you need to loosen up a bit and you know. Have fun!" Jill said while flailing her arms. The fear in her all gone.

Filip chuckled, "Of course. Anything for you, sis." he messed up Jill's hair using his right hand because his left hand held a notebook of some sort.

"Hey! Stop messing with me like I'm an eight year old child. I am already fifteen you know."

"Yes and a real mature one" Filip said sarcastically.

Jill growled at her brother but her mood somehow instantly changed as she noticed someone walking up the stage. "It's starting!" she squealed. The lights in the stadium turned off and a single spotlight illuminated the man that was supposed to be the host. Excited mumbling could be heard everywhere as people started to bump into each other trying to get as close as possible to the stage. Everyone became quiet as the man started to speak.

"Now, ladies and gentlemen. Let's begin." he said, a Cheshire cat grin on his face.
