“Really? Mind if I take a peek at what you’re doing?” Holden said.
Ariana glanced at him and brushed off the suggestion, remarking, “It’s probably best if you don’t know. It might just cause unnecessary concern.”
Holden was briefly at a loss for words, but he persisted. “Come on, let me take a peek. Maybe I can be of assistance.”

Eventually, Ariana relented and sent him the promotional page for the gaming event.
Confused, Holden questioned, “This is your ‘work’? Are you considering delving into esports?”
Ariana explained, “I’m just looking to unwind with some gaming, so I thought I’d give the preliminaries a shot.”
“Count me in,” Holden immediately replied.
Ariana arched an eyebrow and asked, “Have you played the game before?”
“A few times,” Holden said. “What about you?”
Ariana said confidently, “Obviously, I’m a pro.”
“Alright, you can carry me then,” Holden said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Alright, alright. I never pictured you as a gamer,” Ariana teased, letting out a chuckle.
Holden also smiled. “Well, gaming helps me relax, too.”
With Holden on board, they had enough players in the team to sign up for the competition.
Ariana wanted to sign up first. She planned to practice to score points before the preliminary rounds began.
But then, she discovered Holden didn’t even have an account set up.
She quickly sent a message to Holden. “Why don’t you have an account? I thought you’ve played the game before.”
Holden explained that he had used Shawn’s account before and assured Ariana that everything would be fine.
Then, he asked Ariana for her gamer ID.
Ariana checked her username and honestly replied, “Fatal Gorilla.”
Holden only responded, “Okay…”
Holden promptly proceeded to create his account. Ariana informed the rest of the team to be ready, and they were all prepared, awaiting Holden.
Someone on the team, curious, asked Ariana, “Who’s the latest player you added so swiftly?”
Ariana responded with an air of mystery, “You’ll find out soon.”
