The next day, Tuesday, September 22nd.

As usual, Theo woke up early and went for a spar with Akihiro-sensei.

Theo was by now proficient in more than 50 fighting styles at the grandmaster level. He now could be considered one of the most knowledgeable masters of the world.

"Akihiro, you shouldn't elevate your shoulder so much." Theo said while circling Akihiro-sensei.

"Ah, I didn't even notice. Thank you, Theo." Akihiro sensei said.

A while ago Akihiro-sensei became much more knowledgeable, and he asked Theo's help to correct his mistakes.

He became even more proficient after sparing with Theo daily.

Theo noticed that Akihiro made a tiny mistake in the fighting stance, and he took advantage.

Theo threw a fake kick in his ribs and when Akihiro went for the defense. Theo rotated in the air to catch Akihiro by surprise. Even though Akihiro was a master and experienced, he still was a step too late to defend the flying kick.

Akihiro still defended but it wasn't the optimal defense and consequently, the flying kick hurt.

"Theo, you are a beast! Too fast! I relaxed a little on the defensive stance and you were ready to throw the flying kick." Akihiro-sensei said in admiration.

"That's why you shouldn't relax while fighting. You are a master yourself, so I won't explain why." Theo laughed.

"Well, time to go. See you tomorrow." Theo said while exiting the ring.

"See you!" Akihiro-sensei shouted.

Theo went home, where he cooked breakfast for Aurora.

After Aurora went to school. Theo went towards the restaurant.

Today the music shop was going to deliver the piano.

Theo was going to put the piano on a little stage that was by the salon of the restaurant.

He arrived at the restaurant and saw June.

She was making the report of last night's service.

"Good morning, June." Theo smiled.

June lifted her head and saw a handsome man looking at her with a smile.

"Good morning, boss." June said with a little blush on her cheeks. She had to admit she was taken by surprise with such a handsome man smiling at her.

"How was the service yesterday?" Theo asked.

"We had the salon tables sold out and we were able to get reservations for the private rooms." June replied with a professional tone.







"I see, it seems that our restaurant is becoming more and more famous." Theo said with a smile.

"Hey, if a truck from a music shop stops by the restaurant, can you text me? I will be on the second floor." Theo said.

"Sure, boss." June replied.

"Bye." Theo said as he went upstairs.

Theo was on the second floor watching an online class about editing videos and pictures, he wanted to level up his skill and studying was necessary.

He was certain that he could level up the Director and Editor Skills today. With his enhanced intellect, it was an easy feat.

He was studying when his phone rang.

It was June saying that the truck arrived.

Theo ran downstairs and received them.

The piano was enormous, and it took the delivery men 1 hour to transport the piano to the stage of the restaurant.

The piano looked beautiful with the decoration of the restaurant.

"Will we hire a pianist to play at the restaurant, boss?" June asked as she observed the piano with Theo.

"Maybe, but it is mainly for me to play." Theo said with shining eyes.

"You play, boss?" June asked with a surprised voice. She didn't expect that her genius chef boss was able to play the piano.

"Yes." Theo replied.

Theo spent the rest of the day rehearsing and playing the songs he chose to play for Aurora's birthday.

When staff arrived to start the preparations for the night service, they saw their boss playing beautifully the piano.

They thought he was an abnormal freak of nature. How can such a talented chef also be talented musically?

When Ayia arrived and saw Theo at the piano, she froze.

'How is this possible?...' she couldn't believe such a handsome man existed. And he played so well.

She became even more in love with him.

Theo stopped when looked at the clock, it was time to prepare for the night service.

"Let's work?" Theo smiled at the employees that were listening to him play.

That night the service was another success.

According to June, the restaurant was having 130k of profit daily, already without the cost of ingredients, energy, maintenance, and other stuff.

June projected that as they only were opened a little more than a week before the end of the month. The restaurant wouldn't have much profit this month.





Theo had to pay one million of salary to his employees. Ayia received 500k and each cook received 50k. June received 100k and the rest was divided with the rest of the staff.

This month he was 'only' going to receive 500k of profits that were his. But starting next month his profit was going to be more than three million dollars monthly.

And if the private rooms are sold out every day, their profit is going to increase.

The next day, Wednesday.

Theo went for the sparing session early in the morning, he made breakfast for Aurora, he went for his office at the Umbrella Company to study and level up his Director and Editor Skills, at the afternoon he went to the restaurant to rehearse the songs and at night he worked at the kitchen of the restaurant.

And the week went by with Theo having the same routine every day.

Theo was happy with how he was living. He studied what he liked, and he worked with what he liked.

Saturday night, after the service ended.

Theo, Ayia, Aurora, and June were watching a movie in the lounge room on the second floor.

Theo called Ayia and Aurora called June.

Aurora became friends with June after they started working together. And that was how the present scene came to be.

They were watching a horror movie while eating popcorn.

The movie was called 'Do Not Scream.' and it was an awesome movie that really made the viewer afraid.

It was about a boy that went to town to visit the tombstone of one of his friends. But there he meets his friend's family in a mansion. And everything was too weird there, the family had a weird habit of playing with ventriloquist dolls, and these dolls were too creepy.

In the story, he discovered that these dolls were alive and if he screamed when they scared him, he would become a doll too.

The movie ended with him discovering that all the family members he met at the beginning were dolls and not resisting anymore, he screamed and became a doll too.

When the credits rolled on the TV, the four of them were dazed.

"Wow that was such a good movie!" Ayia was the first to shout.

"Yeah, it was really scary." June also said in wonder.

"I don't think I can sleep tonight." Aurora laughed.

"It was a great movie indeed." Theo said as he was lost in thoughts

He had many useful insights as he saw the movie. He spent the week studying and he managed to level up his Director and Editor Skills to Level 3. He was not an amateur regarding this field anymore.

They talked about the movie as they exited the restaurant.

"Do you girls want to come with me and Aurora to visit the orphanage tomorrow?" Theo asked Ayia and June at the door of the restaurant.

"Yes, I wanted to go back there for ages!" Ayia shouted while jumping.

"Sure, I never visited an orphanage." June smiled.

"Meet me here in the restaurant tomorrow morning then." Theo said.

They said goodbye to each other and went home.
