Chapter 16: Strip video games

“hey!” he greeted. 

“hey, I see your face is okay I guess that’s a good sign..” I couldn’t help myself but laughing as he groaned and rolled his eyes.

He was wearing an unbuttoned dark blue shirt, black V-neck T-shirt, a pair of dark grey pants and black converses. I kissed his cheek and went it.

“don’t be grumpy I’m teasing although seeing you falling will be the most hilarious sh.it ever!” I say holding my laughter.

“whatever..” he mumbled disinterested 

“what’s that?” he gestures to his shirt in my hands. 

“oh yeah, thanks for landing me your shirt the other day, although it was your fault that I was soaked from head to toe.” I say giving him his shirt in a plastic bag, ironed and washed. 

“you really can’t say thank you without insulting at the end of the sentence, can you?” he half states half asks. 

I shrug, he throws his shirt on top of the couch “how’s that my fault, you hit me first!” he says as he turns to me. 

“well, you didn’t have to throw back!” I firmly say. 

He chuckles shaking his head. I smile and dump my bag at the back of the sofa. 

“so what were you doing before I came here?” I ask 

“uhhh… playing some video games” 

“really, like what?” I take a seat on the couch and take a game controller.

“you play?” he asks intrigued 

“I get around” I vaguely answer. The truth is there is some games I’m good at others I suck at and others I’m awesome at. Thanks to my Liam and Adam who taught me. 

“hey can I ask of you something?” 

“sure”

“do you have street fighter?” I ask eagerly. 

He seemed to look taken aback and then laughed. 

“what?”

“you want to play street fighter?” 

“yeah I know... it’s not exactly Halo or UFC but the theme song kept playing in my mind” 

“really?” I nodded. 

He had an amused grin on his face.

“so do you have it ?”

“yeah I do actually hold on” he says as he searchs the CD holder-thingy “aha!” he says waving it at me.

He put it in and we started playing. I, of course, chose Chun Li. 

“really Chun Li ?” he says mocking me 

“what’s wrong with her, jackas.s?” 

“it’s just that .. it’s so predictable to choose the girl and even though you know she’s weak you chose her because you’re a girl, feminist-as.s” he says. 

What he said is partially true. I chose her because she’s a girl but also I really do believe she’s strong. But let’s face it no way in hell I’m gonna admit that! 

“what? How dare you? Chun Li can beat your as.s anytime asshole with her eyes closed even, she’s super strong, so excuse me if I chose the strongest player.. don’t be jealous because I chose her before you can Noah” I say the last part like I was scolding a child.
