He finds it hard to believe that a guy of Amos\' age hasn\'t been to an arcade before or played video games.

"Also, if you haven\'t been to an arcade before then why did you suggest we come here?" He added.

"To put a smile on their faces I can do anything, including going as far as displeasing myself," He replied sternly.

He wanted to hear Amos reply but after listening to it he went quiet for some reason.

[I guess this must be one of the reasons she is crazy about him]

Derrick was in deep thought as his eyes moved from Amos to Joanna\'s face.

"You are such a young guy but why are you speaking like an old man who has lived for a few centuries?" Raymond playfully asked.

"Maybe my way of thinking is old-fashioned because I was raised in the midst of those who had lived a few centuries," Amos replied. He wasn\'t harsh with his response for the first time.

"I want to play that one," Anthony declared and ran to the front of the game where the previous players just left.

Just like before Anthony, Raymond and Derrick took their respective position in front of the game and got ready for the combat.

As they watched the combat game Joanna paid attention to how the game was played.

Midway through the game, she had already grasped almost everything about how the game operates.

Because Raymond and Derrick went easy on Anthony he became the winner. The minute spent playing this particular game wasn\'t long.

"Miss Butterfly, should we move to another game or do you want to give it a shot…,"

"She doesn\'t know how to play the games so why do you bother asking…,"

"And who said I don\'t know how to play this particular game?" Joanna interrupted Derrick sternly.

"You know how to play this?" Raymond and Derrick quizzed in unison.

"I know saying that won\'t be enough, so why don\'t we play a few rounds?" She issued the challenge to the guy\'s surprise.

"Big Sis, Brother Raymond and Derrick are quite good with this game, are you sure you want to play with them?" He asked with his tiny voice.

"Of course, I am aware of that. And I also know that you are worried about me but you don\'t have to. Because if there is something I have become very good at during my six months of disappearance it is kicking asses," Joanna said and winked naughtily at her worried little brother.

"Whoa… I love your spirit," Derrick applauded, grinning. "So you are gonna play with Ray right?" He asked.

He was so certain she was gonna choose Raymond.

If she chose Raymond, he would do doubts go easy on her so why on earth will he leave Raymond and choose him instead?

"Who said I chose Raymond?" Joanna questioned. Her mischievous smile made them wonder what she was up to.

"If I am not your opponent then who is? Your brother?" Raymond asked in confusion.

"Him," She said and pointed at Derrick.

"Woah… did you just say me?" Derrick asked with widened eyes. He covered his mouth as he stared at Joanna.

He wasn\'t the only one shocked by her choice.

"I am happy you choose me but I have no plans of going easy on you like Ray would have…,"

"I never said I wanted you to go easy on me so what are you saying?" Joanna asked, frowning.

"We are only here to have fun. You don\'t have to do this…,"

"And that is exactly what I want to do. I am going to have it to the fullest so don\'t worry," Joanna smiled at the worried Amos.

"Also, this is only a game. My feelings won\'t get hurt like all of you assume so don\'t worry. I am not that weak-hearted if you may know," She smiled and took her position in front of the game.

The beaming Derrick also took his position in front of the game.

The moment the game started Amos and Raymond were more anxious than Joanna who was playing the game.

Although she assured them she wouldn\'t be hurt if she failed, the two guys wanted her to do well.

At the beginning of the game, Derrick was very relaxed. His relaxation came to an abrupt end when he realised that he had underestimated Joanna.

"Joanna, didn\'t you say this is your first time playing this game so how come you are this good?" Derrick, who had a hard time keeping up with Joanna\'s pace, complained bitterly.

"My best friend is a game lover. I have followed her to the arcade more than twice. I have watched her play during those times….," She trailed. The feeling of victory didn\'t make her stop smiling.

"I am such a genius. No wonder I am this good," She smiled bewitchingly.

"You have always said I am a narcissist but you sound like one now. Have you joined the club now?" Amos jokingly said. Seeing her so excited made him twice happy.

"For Rick to have complimented her, I believe this means he has met his match so this doesn\'t make her a narcissist," Raymond said, his attention glued on the screen.

"Big Sis is good," Anthony yelled in excitement. He gave Joanna a thumbs up and even tried to peck her but Amos pulled him away from her.

"You are gonna make her fail at this rate," Amos said.

With none of them willing to go easy on the other the game got more intense in a few minutes.

"Big Sis, just a little more," Anthony urged her on seeing that Joanna stood a chance of winning.

"Damn!" Derrick cursed loudly and leaned back on the black chair. He exhaled deeply and removed his hand from the game\'s control panel.

"You won so why do you look unhappy…,"

"I won only by luck. I almost lost to her," Derrick said and kept stretching his tensed fingers.

"I can see that my gaming skills have suffered some setbacks. I need to hone my skills again," He said.
