The Entertainer/Playing on the bed
For a few seconds we stood still, what was he thinking in his head anyway? He wants to sleep with me? God damn, I thought I knew everything about the kid! He turns to me and say “Let's go on my bed!” He said, taking my hand and running toward it. “W-Wait!” I followed along, he got on it, help me up and he start jumping on the bed “Look! Look! Nobody can stop us now! Come on, jump!” The chess pieces are stumbling down and rolling “Wait, wait, you can't just do that.” I stopped him by grabbing his arms. “Why not?” “Your game's gonna fall on the ground!” He looks back at it “Oh, right.” “What were you even doing? Playing chess alone?” I knew exactly what he was doing, but not the story
With another jump he flopped on his stomach, falling down on a piece. “Ow...” “Are you okay?” “I am! No worries!” He took the piece and set it with the others, all scattered between each others. He then rub the bed looking at me “Come on, put yourself like me! You'll like it!” “Um...” And so I did “Okay I guess.” We then look back at the pieces, it doesn't even look like chess anymore. “You know how chess is a military game, right?” He looks back at me “Yes?” He took the white King's piece and set it in his palm, displaying it for the both of us. “Well, if you think about it, chess is turn-based so it's not really a good way to do strategy in real life! Every moves are planned and there are no room left for the unexpected.” He then took the black queen's piece in his other palm and start rubbing the two pieces together. “So what I do is create scenarios that allows for real time planning and doing!” This kid...Does he know what he's doing right now?
