Victor stepped into his dorm to find an unusual sight—Kairo was home, and he wasn't alone. A bunch of guys were sprawled around the room, talking, laughing, and munching on snacks.
The air smelled of salted chips and energy drinks.
"Hey, Victor!" Kairo waved him over casually. "Come meet the crew."
Victor offered a nod and exchanged handshakes and short greetings with the others. One of them, a tall guy with dreadlocks and a permanent smirk, pointed at Victor and said with a laugh, "Oh, so this is the guy who sleeps all the damn time, huh?"
Victor raised a brow. "What the hell? I don't sleep that much."
The room erupted with laughter.
Victor grinned, but inside he was groaning. He had been hoping for peace and quiet so he could log in but now his dorm was a jungle of bodies and banter.
His eyes occasionally flicked toward his bed and the hidden compartment underneath it where he kept the helmet, his phone, and the camera.
