The Casino Kingdom had its own king, Aaron. He'd never lost and didn't know what it was like to lose. He didn't know what it was like to have your last money taken from you, and he wasn't going to find out... until he met you.

You'd never played in a casino, but you were an excellent card player, and your experience was evident. You wandered into the casino out of curiosity, to test yourself. You looked around for Aaron and saw him at the table, about to leave.

You walked up and placed your hands on the table:

• I want to play.

A pause. You pointed at him.

• I want to play with you.

He froze at such confidence and burst into tears of laughter. You sat down opposite him and threw a wad of cash on the table:

— Let's begin.

He stopped laughing and smiled:

• Study, baby.

The man dealt the cards, and the game began. At first, he was winning, and you thought you had no chance. But you both had two cards. He put down one, you put down the other. Then he confidently tossed the king of trumps in your face:

• Baby, were you so sure?

You froze, looking at the king, and slowly revealed the card, revealing the ace of trumps:

“I wasn’t just so sure,” you said quietly, but with passion.

You saw him contort in shock and anger. People started clapping, shocked by what had just happened, and a malicious smile played on your lips.
