Dinner. They now gathered around the pool.Ca.s.sie watches amusingly at Daichi who swam like a professional athlete. He has been swimming back and forth in the pool.
They"ve decided to eat outdoors while Uncle Jing grilling the huge fish he bought from his friends that freshly caught.
"Hey, Rodulf... Why don"t you stop playing and jump off here on the pool? You just damaging your eyes staring at the computer screen all day."
"Shut up, Daichi don"t disturb me!"
In times like this, you can"t talk to him properly. He is capable to do his job fast and perfectly. In rewards, don"t try to talk to him while he is on his games.
"Ah! You d.a.m.n brats! Who do you think you are to use cheats on me! I"ll show you who"s the king of cheats!" he sneers in front of his laptop.
Shun sighed who just seated next to him. He noticed Ca.s.sie was staring intently at what Rodulf is playing.
"Don"t try to play that game. Just concentrate on your study." Shun told Ca.s.sie.
"Ah, no! I think that game is like what my cla.s.smates playing," she replied. "But Mr. Rodulf is amazing." she praised.
Hearing this, Rodulf smirking. But Daichi got jealous that Ca.s.sie praises him being a Gamer Genius. Out of sudden impulse, Daichi gathers his strength and splash the pool water towards Rodulf.
The pool water drops a huge amount into the laptop. Rodulf mouth dropped and his eyes widen, the computer turns off suddenly. Not only that, Shun who currently browsing the Finance News on his Tablet also received an amount of pool water, landed on his s.h.i.+rt and pants.
Ca.s.sie saw the water coming so she right away turns around and only her back got wet.
"Daichi! You--" Rodulf shaking in anger. He was in the middle of Global Tournament and he is depending on his t.i.tle as number 1.
He put away his laptop and marched towards the pool.
"Am going to kill you if I ranked number 2 tonight!" After yelling this, Rodulf jumped off the pool and chase Daichi around the pool.
"I am sorry! Boss! Forgive me! Ahhh..."
Rodulf got a hold of him and was tried to drown him.
Ca.s.sie was stunned, staring at the two adults acting like little kids in the pool. But can"t deny the worries registered on her face. Mr. Rodulf seems to drown Daichi for real.
Shun glances at her. "Don"t mind those two. They are childish so just ignore them." Shun now wiping his Tab screen, trying to dry it out.
"Oh," Ca.s.sie rush to get some table napkin and give it to Shun. Shun smiled and thank her.
Ca.s.sie contemplates below the pool and the two men still chasing around. Shun"s bodyguards who also around are just laughing at them. She takes a glimpse secretly towards her Master. Is this how he treated his employees to gain their trust and loyalty?
Everyone just acted casually around their boss. And Shun just ignored his surrounding. He even not get angry when Daichi splashes them the pool water.
Ca.s.sie began to think how impressive Shun is... to those who don"t know him, the first impression he gives is a not approachable person. But to those who are close to him and he allowed to see his other self, this is him. Not the boss but an ordinary person hanging out with his friends like a family.

Dinner is served. In the long table is where places all the food auntie Ling cooked including the crabs and the grilled fish by Uncle Jing, now they began digging the food.
On the corner of the table is where Shun seated and eating quietly. On his right side is Ca.s.sie who is very fun watching the adults in the riot over the table. They were loud while eating.
Daichi and Rodulf still not over yet... Daichi still crying for forgiveness towards Rodulf. Although Ca.s.sie went inside to get a hair blower and tried to dry out the laptop keyboard and turn it on again, Rodulf defeated and place rank number 2 on his Global Tournament in that online game he"s addicted to. Rodulf still can"t forgive Daichi because he was forced to jump off in the pool as he has no plans to swim. He"s now counting Daichi"s mistakes to him.
Ca.s.sie giggles watching them. When does this house full of laughter once? It seems, just those times her parents still alive and their neighborhood will come over and brought food for them to eat together.
She can"t avoid feeling that pain from those happy memories. But that was in the past now. Her parents stayed inside her heart and she knew that they wish for her to cheer up and continue living.
She believes, there still people that would love her and needed her. She wipes secretly the tear that had escaped from her right eye. She regains her emotion and watched amusingly at Daichi who continued pestering Rodulf.
Ca.s.sie doesn"t know that Shun observing her the whole time and so, that tear did not his from him. He thought, he must be missing her family.
