The butler smiled and said, “There aren’t a lot of young people who can play chess now. They’re both doing very well.”
Sunny nodded.
Nick was really outstanding. Sunny had accepted him as a disciple because he saw potential in him. His martial arts skills weren’t too far off from Cameron’s either.
If Waylon hadn’t shown up, he would have wanted Nick to be his son-in-law.
Sunny was absolutely proud because both his son-in-law and disciple were connected to him.
Their match turned out to be a stalemate.
Damian walked closer. “Oh, both seem to be in good standing, and there’s no way to determine who wins.”
Nick looked at Waylon. “That was exceptional. I have no idea what move should come next.”
Waylon smiled. “You’re being too modest. There aren’t a lot of people who can stump me.”
Cameron crossed her arms. She had to admit that her game was terrible.
Mahina walked over and whispered, “I don’t understand what is going on. Who won?”
Cameron whispered back, “I don’t know chess that well. I have no idea either.”
Waylon looked up at her. “Cam, can you come over?”
She pointed at herself. “Me?”
Mahina pushed her over.
Waylon got up. “You continue playing this.
“What?”
Waylon made her sit down and leaned down next to her. “Trust me.”
Cameron looked at the board. When she didn’t know what move to make, Waylon said, “Move the bishop up three spots and block the rook.”
She moved the bishop.
Nick smiled. “That’s interesting.” He got serious too.
Cameron was caught in between the two men and started shuddering, but Waylon said, “Move the bishop back one square and block the other rook.”
Cameron listened to Waylon’s plan and finally won after half an hour.
Sunny looked at Damian and sighed. “We’ve learned something today.”
Cameron looked up at Waylon. “We won?”
He smiled. “A close one.”
Nick slowly got up. “I lost.”
Cameron got up and consoled him. “That’s not too bad. If it were me, I would have lost soon after we started. I’m much worse.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Even Sunny felt ashamed. “I’m glad you’re aware of that.”
Damian chuckled. “Alright, it’s been a long game. I’m guessing everyone’s hungry now. How about I get everyone dinner at Yuzu Villa?”
Cameron gave a thumbs up. “Uncle Damian, I like your generosity.”
Everyone broke out in laughter.
Late that night, the entire East Islands was quiet, and the song of insects could be heard in the woods.
Cameron and Waylon sat in the garden, stargazing. She rested her head on his shoulder. “The stars here seem to be brighter than before.”
He smiled. “Isn’t it the same?”
Cameron sat up. “I’ve never star gazed with anyone before.”
Waylon held her hand. “I can do this with you if you enjoy it.”
Cameron leaned back down and smiled.
Nick stood in the pavilion not far from there and looked up at the night sky after looking at them.
Sunny walked over in pajamas with his hands behind his back. “Can’t fall asleep?”
He turned around and smiled. “I’m just missing the time I was learning from you here.”
Sunny smiled too and sat at the table. “You were about 13 or 14 back then. I still remember it clearly.”
Nick took a seat and poured him some tea. “I remember that when I was sent here, I resisted you because I didn’t know you. Cameron… beat me up because of that.”
