The Bored Immortal

She then thought that her mother might have had some emergency that was keeping her busy.

Still, Tiana felt that today was indeed a refreshing and fun day, unlike her usual days. She looked at Dorian walking beside her and felt that she never expected to have fun hanging out with her newfound cousin.

In fact, even teaching him the basic things and seeing him implement them was fun to watch.

She decided to tease him a bit before entering the mansion, "Hey, by any chance, are you a mama\'s boy?"

"Mama\'s boy?" Viktor asked with a perplexed expression and continued, "What makes you say that? But I am my mother\'s son."

Seeing him say with a confused and innocent expression made Tiana giggle and lightly fisted him in the shoulder, "Silly, I know that. It\'s just you mention your mother occasionally, which makes me think that you must have been a very obedient boy to your mother."

"Tia? Dorian?"

Tiana and Viktor were surprised to see Sayana standing before them in the hall just as they entered.

It seemed as if Sayana was just about to go to the kitchen when she saw them enter.

She was truly surprised to see Tiana laughing and giggling with Dorian and wondered how these two became so close within just a day. Just yesterday only, Tiana was feeling exasperated about getting a new cousin for whom she has to look after and help him adjust to city life.

But now, these two looked like they were buddies, at least. And so, for the first time, she felt a slight burning sensation in her chest seeing these two, but she didn\'t pay any mind to this sensation.

Instead, she went forward to receive them with a smile, "You guys are quite late. What took you two so long?"

"Well, you know why, Saya. Actually, I have a lot of things to tell you. Come, let\'s go to his room and talk!"

Sayana was taken by surprise as she got pulled along by Tiana towards Viktor\'s room, who wondered why Tiana wanted to talk in his room specifically.

On the way, he took a look at Umilia\'s room but pursed his lips when he saw that she wasn\'t in her room and wondered where she was at this hour.

\'She couldn\'t possibly be taking yoga classes at this hour?\' Viktor felt that Umilia might have some other business going on as well.

Just as the three got inside Viktor\'s room, Tiana started off in an excited tone, "You won\'t believe how exciting and fun today\'s day was. And Goodboi was really on a different level. He totally floored it and got rid of some dumbos," Tiana said with an excited smile.

"Snow Fairy is just exaggerating. She was the one who taught them a lesson," Viktor said with a slight head shake.

"Aw, don\'t be shy, Goodboi. I know that it was your idea to agree to the bet and also to increase the fame of our team," Tiana said with a wink.

Sayana had a blank look as she saw these two being in their own world and was completely lost about what they were talking about.

"Goodboi? Snow Fairy? What are you guys talking about?" Sayana asked though she formed her own guess.

Tiana waved her hand and said, "Oh, Goodboi is his IGN just like Snow Queen, you know. And he decided to call me Snow Fairy based on that."

"Oh…" Sayana raised her brows in surprise, seeing that these two were already comfortable with each other enough to address each other by nicknames.

But she couldn\'t help but feel envious seeing these two for some reason.

Still, she liked Dorian\'s nickname and said, "That is a nice name for your IGN, Goodboi. It really suits you."

Tiana grabbed Sayana\'s hand as she said in a spirited tone, "I know, right! He has that cute and innocent look that perfectly goes along with this name."

Viktor put up a stifled smile as he caressed his hair.

"Haha, see. Look at him blush. He is such a cutie pie," Tiana laughed as Sayana chuckled, seeing Dorian\'s reactions as she also found Tiana\'s words to be true.

Tiana then looked at Dorian and asked, "You should definitely create a social media account. I am sure if you post pics, many girls would like it. You want my help on that one?"

Viktor got a gist of what this whole social media thing was and knew that it was a platform to share digital content with other people.

"Sure. I am quite curious about it."

"Great! I guess we can do it tomorrow."

"Well, you guys still didn\'t tell me what happened for today\'s tourney. Did you win, Tia?" Sayana asked as this was in the back of her mind.

Tiana slyly smiled as she said, "Oh, girl, you have no idea. We did a lot more than just winning…" Tiana explained everything that happened between her team and John\'s, including how he bitterly lost the bet as well.

Sayana was totally surprised that Dorian had prodigal skills in the game Tiana always plays. She never expected Dorian to have the potential to be a pro gamer, considering how he never played them before.

Still, she was happy that Dorian was very talented in that game and that he had the potential to be famous as well.

She was then shocked by the fact that John gave away his precious and expensive laptop and bike to Dorian. She could only look at Dorian with a slack jaw, wondering how someone like him managed to do all this with just words and why John even agreed to such absurd bets that resulted in such a loss for him.

However, for a moment, she couldn\'t help but look at Dorian in a brighter light, thinking that he was quite amazing and smart for someone who was new to city life and its people.

The three continued to chat about all kinds of things. Viktor learned that the reason Tiana decided to talk in his room was that she was excited to help him set up his \'new\' gaming laptop.

For some reason, she couldn\'t help but be enthusiastic about making him a pro player officially so that she would have someone from her own family as a company.

Tiana soon left, feeling tired after making sure John\'s laptop was a clean slate and reinstalling the game while explaining the settings to him.

Sayana sat along to watch him play, but Dorian said that he was too tired to play now and he will show her later.

"Okay. Did you eat anything for dinner, by the way? Oh, right, Tiana told me you guys ate before coming here. I guess goodnight for today," Sayana said with a smile as she turned around to leave.

But she was startled when Dorian suddenly grabbed her wrist and said, "Wait."
