《Seeing Double》73

"Alright Ladies." I say as I stand in front of my team. "I hope all of you had a nice sleep..."
"Thanks." Kelley cheekily says.
"Dork." Lindsey mumbles.
"So before you all are released for your off day I want to do a little bit of team bonding." I say.
"What are we doing Coach?" Kelley asks.
"You guys are doing a scavenger hunt." I say.
"Is there a prize?" My twin asks.
"Before we get to that, Is the plan for everyone to go out to eat together tonight then we'll go to a lounge?"
"Yeah." Mal says.
"Alright so yes there is a prize."
"And that is?" Emily asks.
"The winning team will have all their drinks at the lounge paid for by me."
"Fuck yeah." Kelley says as I turn on the projector.
"Here are your team's."
"Can we make team names?" Kelley asks.
"How are you older than me?" Emily questions then she is smacked on the head by my twin.
"Sure Kels." I say.
"Everyone's name has to include an animal and a color." Emily says as I turn of the projector.
"And I'm the child." Kelley mumbles as the 6 teams get together.
The teams discuss for a moment while I get ready to edit the team names on the computer then they look at me.
"Team 1 what is your team name?" I question.
"Red Jaguars." Mal says.
"Team 2?"
"Blue Barracudas." Julie says.
"Team 3?" I question.
"Green Monkeys." Kelley says.
"Team 4?"
"Orange Iguanas." Emily says.
"Team 5?"
"Silver Snakes."
"And Team 6?"
"Purple Parrots." My wife says so I finish updating the team names then I project them on the projection screen.

"One person from each team come up to get your envelope." I say then 6 women come grab an envelope. "Don't open them yet."
The 6 women nod then they return to their teams.
"To complete your tasks you must either bring the object back or take a picture if it's unable to be moved. Your team must stay together, you have 90 minutes to complete your task, " I say then look at my watch. "And your time starts............Now."
The 6 teams open their envelopes and game plan then they leave the meeting room leaving just the coaching staff.
"You guys wanna go to that little cafe on the corner?" Ash asks and we all nod.
The five of us grab our things then we leave the meeting room, leave the hotel, and head to the bakery. Once at the bakery I order steak and frites, a coke, and a bakers dozen of chouquette. When I get my food I find a table for us then sit down and start eating. The other ladies arrive soon and start eating.
"Whatever happened to that lady we escorted out of your wedding?" Ash asks.
"Excuse me?" Becky says and looks at me.
"Lily showed up to mine and Tobin's wedding." I say then look at Ash. "She got in a wreck back in 2019 that fucked up her brain and it went misdiagnosed so she's getting treatment for that. Tobin and I also have a restraining order on her."
"Where are you and Tobin Honeymooning?" Ali asks.
"We're going to Fiji after the November friendlies."
"That'll be fun."
"Yeah." I say then eat a few chouquette's. "So how'd you think we'll do against France?"
"Depends which France shows up." Becky says. "If it's 2019 World Cup France then we're in for a hell of a game."

The five of us continue to talk while we eat.
We talk about how Ash and Ali want to adopt, we talk about Carli and her husband's plans to have kids, and we talk about Becky and Zola's plans for their wedding.
"Well I guess we better get back." Carli says.
The five of us dump our trash, walk back to the hotel, then head to the meeting room. We wait for about ten minutes then the groups come rushing back into the room.
"FIRST." Kelley shouts.
"YOU WERE NOT." Sonnett shouts.
"HEY." I yell and everyone shuts up. "Thank you...Now one person from your team bring up all the evidence you have of your teams completion of the scavenger hunt."
A woman from each team comes up and brings their respective teams evidence then Ash, Ali, Becky, and Carli comb through the evidence. We deliberate for a little bit and come to a decision.
"And the winners are.....................................The Purple Parrots."

"I still find this really cute." My twin says and grabs my necklace with Tobin's initial on it.
"So's yours." Mal says and points at Kelley's necklace.
On Kelley's anniversary one of her gifts from Hope was a necklace with Hope's name on it.
"Yeah." Kelley says and instinctively she touches the necklace. "I finally found a necklace good enough for Hopey."
"Everyone ready?" I ask as the last of the team files out of the restaurant.
The team nod so we walk down the street and head into some lounge. We order our drinks, with me buying the drinks for the Purple Parrots group, then we all find somewhere to sit.
Tobin comes to sit by me, but some bimbo sits down next to me.
"Can I help you?" I question as the team look on.
"You can take me to your place and we can have some fun."
"Listen lady." Tobin says as I wrap my arms around her. "This is my girl."
Tobin then holds up her left hand and shows her wedding ring.
"She always has been and always will be."
"Mhmm." I say then kiss Tobin's sculpted bicep. "My Boo Bear."
"I bet I could fuck you better." The bimbo bitch says.
"You sure about that?" I question.
"Yep."
"I highly doubt that." I say then take a drink of my whiskey.
"How so?" The bimbo bitch asks then some other woman comes over and grabs the bitch.
"Just because Andre cheated on you doesn't mean you need to try and ruin another couple Jen." The woman says and pulls the bimbo away. "I apologize for her."
The two ladies walk away from us so Tobin tries to get up off my lap, but I keep her in place.
"Stay." I say when my wife looks at me.
"Alright." Tobin says with a smile. "Love you."
"I love you Boo Bear."

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
