Chương 193: Informing the family

"Hey son, you need to call more. It's been almost two weeks!" Came Eldrian's dad's joking voice over the phone, causing Eldrian to feel even worse about what he needed to say. 

"Sorry dad, things have been hectic here." 

"Oh, did you have some tests? I remember you saying that things were still moving slow last time we talked."

Hearing his reply, Eldrian sighed and decided to just cut to the case. "No. Do you remember that game I was so interested in and bought a headset for?" 

"Yeah... Don't tell me you are addicted and your grades are slipping." Again his dad joked, but his words were too close to the truth. 

"Not exactly." Eldrian rushed the next words, hoping to get through them before his father could react. "I actually got an offer from that company and decided to take it."

"Wha... What!" A shout of disbelief traveled loudly through the phone.
