I rode the elevator with some of my other workmates, including Vicky. I waited till no one was looking, then mimicked dialing an imaginary phone and pressing it to my ear.

She gave me a barely discernible nod. Her eyes laughed.

I hitched a ride back home. I stared through the car window at the cheerful Friday crowds celebrating the end of the weekly grind and looking forward to a night of beer and clubbing followed by some quality sleep and an entire weekend of doing whatever they pleased.

Me too, tomorrow I had a movie date with Vicky. The thought filled me with similar exhilaration even though I’d only been working for the last couple of days.

I dialed Kira. She started talking the moment she picked up,

“You coming? Have you finished working? Mom has cooked enough to feed an army! What time do you want to leave? Would you like me to pick you up? We still need to buy a cake!”

“Hi,” I replied. “Yeah, sure. I’m going home now. I’ll walk the dog and then I can come.”

“Excellent. I’ll be at your place in an hour and a half.”

As I walked toward my house, I noticed some drunken merriment going on in the pavilion. I took a better look. There they were, Yagoza and Co, complete with the beaming Alik still wearing my shirt.

I headed toward them. Alik walked over to greet me.

“Phil!” I could see he was sincerely happy to see me. “They’ve hired me! Imagine! I start Monday!”

“Congratulations! Well done!”

“Thank you!” Alik said, then added guiltily, “I had to buy the guys a drink to celebrate.”

I hadn’t received any quest messages though. Apparently, he had to be officially hired for the quest to close.

He stank of booze. I knew of course that he was celebrating with the money I’d given him.

“Well, listen, you’re a grownup man and can take care of yourself,” I said. “You do what you want but-”

“There!” someone shouted behind me, then slapped my ears quite hard with both his hands. “Scared, ain’t you? So you should be!”

I swung round. The guy gave me a chop under the chin. My eyes watered with the pain. I received a debuff to Perception.

Covering my ringing ears, I looked around me in search of the guy who’d done it.

I didn’t have to look far. A filthy drunken character was standing in front of me, guffawing at his own “joke”. His eyes were mere slits in his fat face.

The entire pavilion guffawed with him.

Their stupid “joke” had become the last straw in the recent succession of dirty tricks others had played on me. I went into Enrage mode.

Clumsily I attempted to punch him, investing all my strength into the blow. My badly-aimed fist barely grazed his cheekbone. Immediately he punched me in the liver, knocking the wind out of me. I doubled up and dropped to the ground.

Alik stopped
