Incompatible

The moment I remember what date and day was today, I was filled with sudden embarrassment. I felt as the world was booing me for forgetting the thing I was waiting for, like a month, the thing I made the love of my life, for which I waiting for so long.

But I was a bit relieved too because only I knew the real reason I forgot about the tournament.

"So, do you remember it now?" He asked.

"Yeah, I just thought today was 31st or something, I messed up the date!" I came up with a lie to save my pride. 

"Kai walk fast, we need to be in the main hall soon,"

"But don't we need to get ourself into the arena where the match is supposed to happen instead of the palace hall?"

"Well, don't you think if you were up early, we wouldn't have to do this all, so quick!" He taunted me as a father who has to drop his children to school because they missed the bus.
