Two Peas In A Pod

Jimmy and Max bolted upright in their beds, startled by Kai's shout. 

Kai smiled sheepishly. He didn't expect his voice to come out that loud. However, he had no regrets. 

Max sat up on his bed, leaning against the frame. 

"Dude, it's 11 PM!" he groaned, rubbing his eyes. "Our game's at 10 tomorrow morning! Are you trying to sabotage us?"

"Wait, that can't be right," he muttered. "You're the most desperate to win out of all of us! So, let us sleep. We can't play in the finals without any sleep." 

Jimmy, on the other hand, sat quietly on his bed. It seemed like he was still awake—which was understandable since the biggest game of their lives was tomorrow. Deep inside, he was thankful Kai woke them up to start a conversation. He really needed a distraction!

Kai ignored Max's complaints, his piercing gaze fixed on them. "Answer my question," he demanded.
