Chapter 22 - Chapter 19

"That was a nice game buddy". Desmond's game partner complimented giving Desmond a light pat on the shoulder and thumbs up to Grace and Nora. Grace held unto the clothes sad and disappointed. He was so slow to react and Nora's character ended up been killed by the guy's character while trying to protect Grace. "Yeah. It was cool playing with you". Nora gave him a fist bump with a proud smirk on her face. The guy smiled back, staring at the low-key domineering figure before him. He had seen her potentials, Grace just happened to make her hold back a bit because she was protecting him all along the game.

"Oh geez I'm so thirsty. You need something Grace". Nora looked down at Grace that had a gloomy face. "I'm... I'm sorry big sis. We lost the game because of me. I was a big coward to have not shot him". Grace clenched his fist with tears at the corner of his eyes. Nora stared at him surprised at his words. She noticed him tearing up which made her heart somewhat break. "It's fine Grace. You actually did a good job out there. We definitely had to chance winning against the both of them. Surviving that long while they preyed on us was cool. So we didn't lose because of you". Nora praised, squatting to his height and wiping off the tears at the corner of his eyes. "Hmm". Grace wiped of this tears with the back of his palm before giving a slight nod.

Nora gently held him by the hand to the drink dispenser nearby. She shoved three coins into the hole that clicked on the options. "Here, have it". Nora handed his a milky chocolate drink while she had a beer in her hand and gave Desmond a bottle of soda. "Thank you big sis". Grace appreciate then opened the lid, taking a sip before turning to her with a happy smile. "It's cool. Arghh!". Nora scratched her hair trying to think of what else to do. "Let's play another game Grace. Let's dance". Nora waltz him towards the dance floor. The monitor displayed the instructions then their dance moves. "Let's do this Grace". Nora turned to give him a thumbs up.

The monitor began to play the song, displaying different dances. Grace kept up with the song smoothly while Nora moved like a dance pro. Everyone around gathered to watch them in an awe. The song then stop showing their scores. "Wow. A kid really got that score?. Even his big sis moved smoothly like it was a child's play". The people whispered to themselves. Suddenly a hand went up from the crowd. "I challenge you miss". A boy probably 3 years younger than she was walked out of the crowd. Nora stared down out him with a light smirk. She scanned him from heads to toes and could tell he was the complete opposite of Grace. He clearly was a rascal and a troublemaker. "I challenge you. I'll definitely beat your score". The boy pointed at with a smug look on his face. "Challenge accepted kiddo". Nora took his stretched out hand in hers then gave a calm smile. The two quickly got on the dancing ground then switched to the super hard level.

"Oh my God it's this trending rap". Someone from the crowd said upon reading the song's title from the monitor. "It's literally the fastest rap with the smoothes instruments I've ever heard. I heard the composer raps faster than Eminem and Twista. He's literally planning on breaking the Guinness world record". Some else mumbled out from the crowd. Nora turned to the little boy and winked as the count down displayed on the monitor. 3...2...1... START!. "Wow, they are on par". Everyone exclaimed as they watched Nora and the boy's score not exceeding or behind each other. Grace stared from the side with admiration. The two both looked cool as they moved.
