SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 2THE BRAVES LUXURY BUS, 8AM."So you didn't know that? Anyways not everyone knew, they got together after Andrew broke up with Jenna last year. They lasted only two weeks, before he called it off with her. Apparently he had all the fun he wanted from Rita and switched them back to boss and employee mode. I really feel sorry for Rita, I mean she has to deal with seeing Drew with you now. I'm sure she would have liked to resign, but decided to settle for at least being around him and getting to see his face on a daily basis," Harry added, inwardly smirking at how shocked Robin looked.Robin sat beside him frozen for a moment as she wasn't able to comprehend what she just heard."Robin, come join us for a game of cards. I know how much you love it," Clara called from her seat."Thanks, but I'll pass. I have to talk to Harry about some details as regards the competition. You guys have fun," she said referring to Andrew's friends and the other Bravers who were playing

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 3THE GREY HOTEL AND SUITES, 10AM."This is your suite, why exactly did you bring me here?" Robin asked with her hands crossed below her bosom which brought Andrew's eye to her ample chest.Seeing the lustful look in his eyes as his eyes came down to her breasts, Robin asked, "Why are you looking at me that way?""What way? You've got a fantastic body by the way, it's only natural for your boyfriend to look at it. Forget that, I wanted to show you something. I got you necklace. Turn around and let me put it on for you," he smiled and turned her around to face the mirror, before clasping the necklace around her neck, a diamond studded necklace with a half heart engraved on it."This must have cost a lot, I can't take this from you. You don't have to give me these sort of things, I'm not like Jenna or Jenny or even your previous girlfriends," Robin tried to unclasp the chain with no success until Andrew unclasped it for her."No way, I bought this for you, what brin

SOMETHING'S GREEN PT 4ANDREW'S SUITE, 10:20AM."We dated for a while last session, it wasn't serious, okay? That's not good enough reason for you to be so upset. Who told you about it?" Andrew raked his fingers through his hair."Who told me about it? Is that the question you should be asking? I want to know why you didn't care to tell me that Rita, who works closely with you at the club, was once your lover. I'm sure you guys slept together, right? You call that not serious? That's the issue with you, you have never taken any of your past relationships seriously. Those girls were all toys that you played with and threw away when you were tired of them! What's the guarantee that you would not do the same with me?" Robin raised her voice."I would have asked you to lower your volume, you know how much I hate noise, but then, noone would hear us since this room is sound- proof. You are being hysterical, I admit that I wasn't serious with relationships before, but if I was, then I would

THE MAGIC OF RECORDERS.THE BAR, GREY HOTEL AND SUITES, 7:15PM."My goodness, you mean Jack, the famous photographer and system engineering student from NYU, is your brother and you've never mentioned it?" Jenna asked in awe."Yes he is, you don't really expect me to go around telling everyone that Jack Stevens is my elder brother, do you?" Robin smiled."Okay that makes sense, but still, you could have told me. It will do my fashion designing career a whole lot if my clients know that I know someone like Jack," Jenna replied with dreamy eyes."I can always introduce you to Jack personally, if that's what you want."Of course, Rob, I...,"Joe frowned at her reaction and said, "I hope you remember that you and I are in a relationship now, Jen?""Oh please, can't I admire a handsome guy with lovely icy grey eyes?" Jenna teased in reply, while Robin's mind was fixed on Andrew and Jack, who sat at a table opposite them."No, you can't," Joe replied with a serious look."Oh come on, what's

KNOCK KNOCK.ROBIN'S SUITE, GREY HOTELS AND SUITES, 10PM."Nothing Drew, I was just greeting her good night, that's all," Harry answered."Okay, you can take your leave now, but let me make one thing straight. I don't wanna ever see you do that to Robin again, man. Got it?""Sure man, see you guys tomorrow," Harry said before leaving the room."You shouldn't be here by this time. Stacey and Clara will be coming up soon, so please leave, I also need to get some rest," Robin turned away from him."You seemed to have no problem with Harry being in here with you for so long, then why not with your boyfriend, huh?" Andrew asked in a deep voice, his face turning totally expressionless."I have no time for this, you're just so annoying. I don't remember asking you to explain why the hell you allowed Rita to stick to you like glue, all day.""Rita's a good friend of mine, it's only natural if we talked with each other. How am I being annoying, I just wanted to talk to you about Sapphire,""Oh

MILLER'S POV:Andrew: Hey guys, I'm taking Robin, Stacey and Clara out today. Are you guys interested?Miller: Wow Stacey's gonna be there, damn I'm totally in.Evans: I'm not sure why I'm agreeing to this, but I guess I can finally get answers from Clara today. I'm in.Andrew: Great guys, I'll meet you at the amusement park then.When I got that text from Andrew in our group chat, saying he was taking Robin and her friends out, I just knew it was my chance to first mend things between him, Joe and Jenna and also most importantly get closer to Stacey.Sure I knew about Joe and Jenna, but it just wasn't my place to tell him about the fact that my twin brother had practically been dying for Jenna, his ex girlfriend.Since we were young, Joe had always been an easy person to read. It had always been a clear thing that my twin had feelings for Jenna, I never never really understood why they both had to pretend like they felt nothing for each other anyway.I guess Andrew was just too focuse

In the last season, we had ten excellent teams such as The Gators from Coral College, led by their captain Gary Fletcher. Resonance Team from Watermark College, led by Marie Sander, Fox Club from JFG College, led by Avery James. We had The Rock Team from Stellar College, led by Jackson Freeman. We had The Fire Team led by Miles Freeman. We had Robots from Johnson College, led by Remy Lawrence, Team Ice from Livingspring College, led by Anthony Fleming and three amazing others," came the booming voice of the host, Alan Peterson, a former gaming champion from the first season of the Regional Gaming Competition.Alan had on a black leather jacket with a deep red T-shirt on the inside. He looked every bit of cool with his skinny ripped jeans.On his handsome face was an ever present smile, it had always been very obvious that Alan was and had always been very passio

COMPETITION DAY 1 PT 2THE BEEHIVE ARENA, NOON."Here comes Andrew Alexander Grey and his teammate, Robin Jane Stevens. Let's clap for them guys," Vanessa encouraged.The reaction of the audience was mixed with fans of both clubs cheering their respective clubs on and insulting the others.Holding Robin's shaking hand, Andrew led her up the stage with a straight face, trying not to get overwhelmed by the audience.It wasn't a lie that he was nervous despite being exposed to the public as the heir to the Grey Business Empire, he had never gotten quite used to the spotlight.He had only pretended all the while, as though he was confident enough, but on the inside, he was only trying to please the public eye by appearing tough and detached from it all."They should be ashamed of themselves, I'm sure they're the ones who copied The Storm," fans of The Storm Team commented on the gaming platform.Several hateful remarks which were countered by fans of The Braves were made until Alan called

ONCE AGAINTWO YEARS LATER...ACHIEVERS UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY, 2 PMROBIN'S POVPaying the designated driver, I got out of the car with my handbag and waited for him to get the rest of my luggage from the car trunk.After ensuring that all my things were out, I thanked him before he drove off.Looking at the environment around me, I smiled as I took in the beautiful decorations of AUT. The beauty of this college seemed to have augmented since the last time I was here two years ago.After admiring the college entrance for about two full minutes, I took out my phone to call Stacey. She and I were still in touch even though I was away in London for the past two years.The previous week when I informed her of the fact that I was done with the graphic designing training that Uncle Joe had enrolled me for and that I was gonna be coming back to AUT, she had screamed in unconcealed excitement and promised to pick me up at the school gate when I arrived.When she had said that, I had asked

RINGS AND KNIVESTHE BEEHIVE ARENA, 12 NOON."Yes, you heard me correctly guys, Robin is more qualified than anyone else to play for us in virtual football. I got to know about her amazing skills on the night of our app launch party. She and I played together and she almost beat me, in fact, we eventually settled at equal scores. I think she was going easy on me that night. You know me, I'm not the type to admit that anyone else is better than me, so it takes a lot of courage for me to give Robin this role. If there's anyone who isn't in support of this, please indicate," Andrew said seriously."Jack has told me about her amazing skills, but I never thought she could beat you at your best sport, Drew. If you think she's good, then she must be." Miller teased while laughing."Shut up Mill," Joe playfully hit Miller's shoulder while laughing."Team leaders from The Gators, The Believe Team and Team Ice, please bring your players to the tournament corner.

ROBIN?"And 1. Programmers, please proceed. You have thirty-five minutes to finish all fifty questions. Remember to use at least forty seconds for each question," Alan announced.The Bravers as well as other teams quickly gathered around three computers and started working on the first ten questions.Andrew sat in front of the system for problem-solving while the other Bravers sat behind the two other systems for offence and defence."It seems like Andrew Grey's team are more relaxed this year and their speed this time is also very good," Linda, one of the commentators remarked."Yes, you're right Linda. Oh, wait, it seems like Team Ice is trying to launch an attack on The Braves, but of cause they are quick enough to defend it. It seems like The Bravers came in very prepared!" Alex, the other commentator replied.Robin watched Andrew from where she and the other Bravers sat and never before had she felt so tensed. She watched the frown of concentration on Andrew's face as he solved t

COMPETITIVE PROGRAMMINGTHE BEEHIVE ARENA, 11 PM"Why do I feel like Max is gonna retaliate violently?" Robin asked fearfully.The look Andrew gave her had her shivering on the inside."He can't do anything, don't worry about him," Andrew replied, holding her hand."Okay ladies and gentlemen, with that settled, I believe we can all continue with the competition. Bravers, you're free to go back to your seats, thank you. We've wasted enough time indeed," Vanessa said after The Storm Team alongside Harry was led out of the arena."Now that The Storm Team is out of the competition, we have only nine teams left. Jeffery Michaels will give us a report on the top leaders of the first round. This round has a total of thirty points and the next one has a total of forty points. Any team that fails to make up to fifty points from the first two rounds added together, would not qualify for the final round. Are you guys excited to find out which team has won this popularity round?" Alan asked."Yes

DISQUALIFIEDTHE BRAVES WAITING ROOM, 10:40 AM"You guys can't let this happen to me. Andrew, you can't let them take me away. I've been your friend for such a long time, you can't do this to me!" Harry shouted as the security guards took him by the arms and dragged him away."What do you think they're gonna do to him?" Robin asked I'm fear."It's definitely gonna be what he deserves," Roberto replied.★★★★★THE BEEHIVE ARENAMax Reed was also dragged up to the stage for questioning and Camila couldn't sit put while her nephew was being maltreated, so she stood up and asked, "Who do you think you're dragging that way? Max is my nephew and I have the feeling that he has been set up by someone. I'm sure that Robin Stevens must have set Max up, she was the one who sold those ideas to him. There must be a mix up somewhere!""Miss Reed I advise you to have your seat and stop giving those remarks. We all just saw the video where your nephew and another student from AUT was talking about how

DAY 1 ONCE AGAINTHE BRAVES WAITING ROOM, 10:00 AMRobin stepped back from Harry and said, "Let's all go out now. It's 10:00 AM already."Why didn't I get a hug?" Harry frowned."That's because you don't deserve it," Robin replied tartly."Ladies and gentlemen, we welcome you once again to The Regional Gaming Competition. As you all know, the competition was scheduled for last week, but due to some misunderstandings, it had to be postponed to this week. Who is excited?" Alan's voice came booming from all the speakers in the arena."I am!" The fans replied, excitedly."The competition has started, can you please keep quiet?" Robin frowned and then all The Bravers focused their attention on the large LED TV in the room, which showed what was happening on stage.★★★★★★THE BEEHIVE ARENA, 10:02 AMThe fans showed their excitement when the camera focused on their corner as they sprayed confetti and raised thundersticks to cheer their preferred teams on. Some even raised banners with the na

PAPER BAGS AND GUMMY BEARSTHE BEEHIVE ARENA, 9:30 AM"Babe, check out who's here to cheer us on!" Andrew said with a smile when Robin opened the door of the room reserved for her in the arena.The competition was to begin in thirty minutes time and all gamers had been given rooms to rest and practice in.She had been working on her increasing the speed of her programming skills. The previous day after the meeting, Harry left, saying he could practice well enough on his own.That left Andrew ensuring that all The Bravers played virtual football matches against one another in pairs. They also made some amendments to Campus Silence, Love Run and SAFE.Robin was indeed tired due to the constant training sessions they all went through all night long and now even with bags under her eyes, she was still very much excited to compete."Who is it?" She asked while rubbing her eyes tiredly after letting Andrew in.Jack then walked into the room with a huge smile and said in a rush, "Hi my cutes

REVELATIONSANDREW'S APARTMENT, 12:30 PM"What do you think? Of course, you have to apologize to her. I told you she was innocent, but you just won't listen," Stanley said.Looking down at her phone with a smile, Robin read the text message Andrew sent to her.MESSAGE DETAILS: Get everyone seated, we're in the parking lot now. Harry shouldn't suspect anything when we walk into the house."Okay, Riley, Gabe, Sophie and Brie, you all have to go downstairs. Andrew and Harry will be here any minute from now. Everyone, please be quiet, okay?" Robin told them all.After they had all relaxed in their seats and pretended like they were discussing other club related matters, Andrew and Harry walked into the room.Fiddling with his glasses, Harry said, "Sorry that I'm late guys. So what system do I use? I think we need to work on our speed first. I noticed most of us are quite slow in comparison with the other teams."Taking a seat in the swivel chair with President written on it, Andrew replie

DEALSANDREW'S APARTMENT, 12PMRobin spent the rest of the morning after church, preparing light snacks and refreshments for The Bravers alongside Sophie and Gabrielle.The rest of Andrew's family had gone home to rest so that they could make it early to The Beehive Arena, the next day for the competition."You see how good they turned out? I told you I make the best hors d'oeuvres in New York City," Gabrielle bragged."Oh please Brie, my cupcakes taste much better than your ridiculous h'ors d'oeuvres which I just can't stop eating," Robin retorted before sneaking another samosa into her mouth."Why do you keep eating them then?" Gabrielle laughed.Beating Robin's hand, Sophie said, "You think her hors d'oeuvres are ridiculous, but you keep eating them. At this rate, there'd be nothing left for us to serve the club members.""Ouch that hurt, Soph. You're just jealous because you haven't been away to eat any of hers yet. I love your punch and cocktails though, the taste is very differe
