54 KNOCK, KNOCK

|Third Pov Theodore|

Theodore, Rose and the Kent's had arrived at Wild Flower elementary in David's SUV.

Lily quickly kissed her parents and hugged Theodore and Rose before shouting a cheerful goodbye.

Rose poked her head out the window and got a look at the place that kept her only friend Lilly away from her.

"Wow~"

Rose stared at the school in awe. Every single wall was a beautiful mural, it had a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

The sight of so many children running around and enjoying each other company made Rose realise why Lily likes school.

Rose began to feel jealous as she began looked back at Theodore and asked "I want more friends daddy"

Theodore pulled her into a tight hug and kissed her "You will have plenty of friends"

"I want lots," Said Rose while rubbing her face into his chest

'Hmm if only there were more kids in the neighbourhood then I could set up a play date. Chloe is cute and all but can't really play with Rose' Thought Theodore

Samantha smiled and said, "Hows about we go shopping?"

Theodore and David immediately tense up as they come up with excuses.

"Ah I just remembered that I have high paying customer waiting on his 1967 Chevy Corvette"

"I-I was going to teach Rose to write her name, yes her name"

Rose looked up at Theodore with her glossy grey eyes full of expectations, her cheeks puffed up and her lips pouting.

Theodore kissed her head and said "Okay but only two toys okay"

"Yay!!" Said Rose before throwing her hands in the air and kissing Theodore

"Great and David don't lie to me I've seen your schedule, it's empty. Besides your wardrobe needs updating" Said Samantha before driving.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

An hour later Theodore and Rose made it back home. Rose looked ecstatic holding a big purple dolphin and a boxed styling doll head.

Theodore had two bags filled with new clothes and more sketchbooks.

Rose immediately ran in and shouted "Aunt Mary!!"

Mary walked out from the kitchen wearing an oversized white t-shirt with grey joggers. Her long black hair in a messy bun with a pair of big silver round glasses.

"Look, new toys!!" Said Rose while presenting her toys.

"Oooh wow" Exclaimed Mary

"Hehe open please" Said Rose pushing the boxed doll head into Mary's hands

Mary quickly opened the box and pulled out the doll head that came with a pink brush and a small makeup kit.

Before Rose could even get a good look. Theodore appeared like a ghost and snatched the makeup kit and put it behind him.

Showing an innocent smile while Rose squinted suspiciously at him.

Rose then showed a happy smile "Look daddy my doll super pretty"

Theodore replied with rubbing her head "Yes, she is just like my little petal"

"Hehehehe I tell Icy now," Said Rose as she ran away with her doll head and stuffed dolphin

"Phew, that was a close one" Said Theodore before dropping the makeup kit in the bin.

"So no makeup huh?" Asked Mary

"Of course she's only two" Replied Theodore

"I thought you wouldn't be back for like another 2 hours so what happens?" Asked Mary

"I got a call that my V.R Cube will be here in a few minutes," Said Theodore excitedly

Mary replied in a disappointed tone "Oh"

"That is not the right reaction. Mary this is a fully working virtual reality. It's the freedom and experience every gamer wants" Said Theodore excitedly

"How does the player register damage and what about the animation for death slash loss" Said Mary still not bothered

"The V.R suit vibrates at a high speed causing a burning sensation. The suit also restrains the body and fixes the posture to match the in-game animation" Said Theodore

"Oh wow that is impressive but it shouldn't have a big market," Said Mary while nodding

"Why do you say that?" Asked Theodore confusedly

"For someone who has trained his body like you it might seem like freedom but for others that don't have the same physical capabilities or basic coordination will only feel limited"

"Yeah but you can also argue that it might encourage others to exercise and become healthy overall," Said Theodore

"Maybe your right but V.R Cube hasn't been out long and it only has PUBG," Said Mary

"You're surprisingly knowledge about gaming," Said, Theodore

"I was an intern at a Digital Arts (D.A). I was a part of their marketing department for a few months. You pick up a few things" Said Mary

"Well it seems you can help me in my next project," said Theodore happily

"So you do have other projects. Okay, what is scriptwriting, acting, dancing. wait you don't mean video games" Said, Mary

"That's Correct 1000 points for the lucky lady," Said Theodore comically while giving a wink

"Theo, the video game market is risky," Said Mary

"Nothings fun if it's not a challenge" said Theodore confidently

"Theo, Rose!" Shouted a familiar charismatic voice

'Sophie!?' Thought Mary while squinting

"Kitchen!" Shouted Theodore

Sophie then appeared at the kitchen doorway with her hair in a French braid and dark green lipstick that fit well with her pale complexion.

Wearing a black tube top that showcased her cleavage and a blue jean jacket that had the left sleeve rolled up to show her tattoo. For her lower half, she wore black ripped shorts with white knee-high socks and a pair of black boots.

Sophie happy smile turned awkward seeing Mary whom she didn't expect to be here.

She walked up and hugged like an old friend while saying "Hi Mary it been so long, I haven't seen you since the dinner party"

"Same, your jacket is so cute where did you get it?" Asked Mary with a smile

"Oh this I got it online I plan to customize it later. I'll send you the link" Said, Sophie

"No its fine It's wouldn't suit me," Said Mary while shaking her head

"So what are you doing here?" Asked Sophie with a forced smile

"Well I slept over and was gonna head home but I have a lot of things to discuss with Theo, and was thinking of staying another night, is that Okay Theo," Said Mary while starting at Theodore with hopeful eyes

Theodore could feel that something was happening as he noticed the evil glare that Sophie gave him.

Sophie then licked her lips and mouthed her intentions 'your and me tonight'

Theodore understood what she said but did not fully understand the underline message and timing it had as he replied "Sure Mary you can stay another night I don't mind"

'Idiot' Thought Sophie after seeing Mary smirked in her direction

"Thanks, so now let's talk about the tattoo" Said, Mary

"Sick, right? David and Sam asked for one as well do you want one too" Said Theodore while showing his right forearm

"I wish you showed me before uncovering it on stream. Someone posted on humming and now I have a ton of emails asking for a price to get you to do a tattoo for them while some are asking for a walkthrough" Said, Mary

"Just respectfully decline their requests and tell them I'll post how it works on Humming," Said Theodore simply

"I want one of those as well but for my right arm," Said Sophie while up to her right sleeve and saying "I want all of the fighting scenes in Kung Fury. The spectrogram will be every single one-liner. I want the 'knock, Knock' one in big bold letters going towards my knuckles" Said Sophie excitedly

"Nope not doing it," Said, Theodore mercilessly

Sophie replied with a pained voice "Why?!"

Theodore gave smug smile and said "Because I want to do it first. Ha ha ha hahaha Thank you for the inspiration"

"noooo!! To think I was the one that showed you that masterpiece. So this is how you repay me" Said Sophie with fake tears

Mary just stood on the side questioning everything 'As If one overdramatic weeb wasn't enough'

"So like when can I have it done. I can't wait to see how my fans react. I'm might even get some new fans" Said Sophie excitedly

"Give a few weeks to prepare and practice a bit more," Said Theodore

*Ding, Dong*

"It's the V.R Cube!!!" Shouted Theodore excitedly before running for the door.
