《The Unknown》Lisa's arrival
Advertisement
Mike's pov
It was only around 2pm and I was already exhausted. It had been a long day having to discipline the girls and get everything cleaned for Lisa's arrival.
"When's she coming? When's she coming? When's she coming?" Stacey was running around in circles as she repeated this question over and over and over.
"Stacey." I grabbed her as she ran by. "Why don't you and Julie get some games out of the common room that you want to play with Lisa when she gets here?"
"Okay, okay, okay," Stacey sang, as she ran off to find Julie.
I checked my watch, 2:23pm. I thought Neil said she was due in by 2pm. I wonder what's keeping her? I was just as anxious as the girls. I decided to head over to the common room to help the girls pick out some games and simultaneously keep me distracted from checking the time every two minutes. As I was about to enter the common room I paused in the doorway, smiling at the scene before me. Neil was down on one knee holding Lisa's, I presume, hand as he introduced her to the girls.
Julie said, "We're cousins (pointing to Stacey) but you're gonna be our sister." She gave Lisa a hug.
Stacey chimed in, "Come with us, sis, so you can meet Mike. He takes care of us and he's really nice, unless you make him mad, then he's kinda scary. But then after he spanks you he's usually nice again."
Lisa stood shaking her head.
"I don't wanna be spanked!"
Julie uttered, "Then just don't make him mad," speaking as if she's making the most obvious statement in the world.
Stacey and Julie each grab one of Lisa's hands. "Come on!" they say, pulling her toward the door.

Julie sees me first.
"Mike, look Lisa's here!" she says excitedly.
Stacey adds, "Don't worry, we told her all about you."
I chuckle, "Oh you did huh?" I kneel down and look Lisa in the eyes. "I'm really glad you're here, Lisa."
Lisa shyly replies, "Thank you," as she looks down at her feet.
Neil says, "Girls, why don't you pick out your bedtime books for reading tonight. I need to speak to Michael for a minute."
Oh oh, he called me Michael, either I'm in trouble or he needs a favor. Honestly, I don't know which is worse.

World of Combat: A Dystopia Gamelit Series
In her world, single combat decides everything. It's her sixteenth birthday and Kiriai has a big decision to make. Will she fight for her dream to battle in the arena? Or buckle under her grandfather’s pressure to become a healer? Her best friend Eigo is an outcast from his scrounger family. On a recent expedition into the wastelands, he found a peculiar birthday gift for Kiriai—an AI trainer from a centuries-old, martial arts game. Could it give her the advantage she needs? Will Kiriai win the fight that decides her future? An impossible deadline, a persuasive mentor, and her own family all stand in Kiriai’s way. If she loses, she’ll be consigned to a mundane life, but more importantly, banned from the arena forever. Kiriai can't let that happen. Combat Origin is the first book in the World of Combat, young adult, dystopia series. If you like strong heroines, gamelit/litrpg and a good brawl, keep reading. Author note: I just discovered the Royal Road community and decided to jump in and participate. I posted Combat Origin, Book 1 during Nov and Dec of 2019 (before moving it to Amazon), followed by the short story prequel that gave backstory on two of the main characters. (non-Gamelit - because the gaming AI hasn't been found yet) Now, Book 5 has been finished and posted on Amazon, which allows me to leave a 10% sample here. The books are all free to read, If you have Kindle Unlimited. Please comment, ask questions, offer suggestions or just say hi. I'm hoping to connect with readers and improve my storytelling. -- Misty :) https://www.amazon.com/author/mistyzaugg https://mistyzaugg.com/
