"Aniki, have you checked the financial reports? Has our production of your game succeeded?"

Aniki smiled and ruffled my hair, earning a glare from me. "Of course, imouto-chan. Since it's the first virtual-reality game, who wouldn't buy it? Besides, I know the how the game works and it's awesome since I tested the game for a year before finishing it. Amazing, right?"

I rolled my eyes and sarcastically looked at him. "Wow. Look at you at the age of sixteen; a boy developed and released a game already even he's not yet in college. Bravo, Aniki."

He scoffed. " Imouto, this is also a way to earn myself a path to game developing. If I have a reputation, colleges of computer courses would immediately accept me! Besides, it's fun to make a game, you know,"

"Yeah, I really know,"

He glared at me. "Well, look at you at the age of 13; a girl made and released a super high-tech headgear device even when she's just starting her 2nd year on high school. For all I know, you've been making weird but super high gadgets and stuff since you were 6 but never showed them to public. This is your first time releasing such device,"

I rolled my eyes. "Yes I never revealed any of my creations to public because it's for the company and the family only. It's better to have my inventions as devices and machines for the company, instead of buying. Besides, fame of inventing such device is a pain in the head. Media would follow me everywhere, because I'm young and a genius blah, blah, blah. Well, this is your tenth developed and released game so yeah, congratulations for dragging me into your mess and I don't want to add on it."

"Well, we have this what you call professional bodyguards in disguise,"

"Whatever. So how many are sold today?"

"All of them. I'm just from the production department and I told them to produce 80 models more of each color. I also took one blue model for myself,"

My eyes widened, but regained my composure quickly. "That fast?"

"Yup. And I suppose our company is dealing with the product demands since many company and people are ordering,"

"Well, tell our parents to ignore those requests because I'm sure they have already discovered what we did since we produced and released a game without their permission. However, I don't think they will give us a talk about it. The products are limited in supply each day, so those customers have to wait."

"Imouto-chan? Don't you think it's unfair for the ones who bought and entered the game first?"

"Don't worry, the game would only play after 48 hours since I put a timer on the first released models. And also, they have to charge the thing 10 hours to fully charge it. The next following batch would have a 24-hour timer, and the next one would have 12 hour timer. I doubt our parents would restrict us from increasing the production, so I guess after a few days the players would finally start playing. Besides, our next production batch would have 150 models of each color if the current batch will be sold out quickly. Thus, increasing to 200, 300 models of every color per batch if everything turns out successful," I explained.

"Well, I have nothing to worry about then. So does that mean your headgear and my headgear also have a timer in it? That's a bummer."

" Don't worry, I didn't set the timer on ours. However, we still need to charge it. Besides, I doubt that we can play the game early since we're too busy with the production and the customers. Not to mention, we have overall exams for the next 3 days so I need my sleep,"

"How does sleeping even helps to our upcoming exams? You're just too lazy to study."

"Because I don't need to study."

"You're just being full of yourself,"

"It's the truth, baka."

"HEY! I'm no---"

"Shut up, aniki."

****

The clock reads 11:00 PM.

"Imouto-chan, the batch of 480 models are already released,"

"Wow. That was fast."

"Yeah, because our company uses your devices and gadgets for the machines so it's a surprise? I'm so surprised," he sarcastically remarked.

I rolled my eyes at him. "Whatever so the next batch now is currently being produced?"

"Yeah. And I already notified and informed our parents. They permitted us to increase the production release. So we can now make 150 models per color,"

"That's great."

"Yup, and I already charged our devices this morning. Just telling you, it's in your private room at the production room because obviously, the electricity is much more accurate in there. How'd you do that?"

I grinned. "Hacking and wiring, bro."

He grimaced. "Doesn't that affect the company's electricity speed?"

"Of course not,"

"So..if I increase the internet speed at my private room at the programming department, it won't affect the company's internet speed?"

"It will, but if it's me who will do the deed, it won't."

"Okay! So can you---"

"Nope, I'm not doing it. Figure it out yourself,"

"Waaahh! Imouto-chan, you're so mean! I'm your brother!"

"....and so?"

"It's unfair!"

"Whatever."

"You're so mean to me, what did I ever do to you?"
