New Game
Disclaimer: If I owned the 39 clues, Ian would have apologized already!!
Chess. If only life was as simple as chess. He was losing, he knew it. He was too busy thinking. Not about chess though. About her. What moves would she have made…? What moves did she make? He had majorly screwed up… his sister certainly never let him forget it. He knew he shouldn't have told her, because she is a blabbermouth and whatever she knows eventually ends up in Mom's mind… Knowing his mom, she probably told her in Australia. If she knew and he knew that she knew, it wouldn't be as bad. Not that she would believe him even if he did tell her he loved her… "Checkmate," the screen read. He looked at the screen to check it, but it was a computer, it was always right. "Would you like to start a new game?" Heck yes, he thought, a new game.
