[I assure you that I exist] Eva told me with a teasing voice.

'Anyways what took you so long to speak up I asked her wondering why she had been silent all this time.

[Oh, I was just sleeping] she told me as she yawned to make it more convincing. but

'I didn't know you could sleep' I told her while I thought about why an AI would need sleep. She was just ignoring me because of what happened earlier in the morning.

[There are a lot of things you do not know] she answered me in a proud tone. guess I was right; she is still angry at me for what happened earlier.

' Okay let us talk later I want to play some FIFA first' I told her as I noticed the weird look Emma was giving me for taking so long to pick a team.

I took a seat next to Emma on the huge blue bean bags she was sitting on. My body sank right into the bag creating the perfect outline of my body so I could relax. She handed me a white controller as she used a Red one to start the game.

The game loaded up as the Iconic EA voiceover rang out taking us into the game. Emma wasted no time starting a match when she reached the main menu.

'"Do you know how to play?" she suddenly asked me as she turned to look at me.

"Yeah, I think it shouldn't be too hard football is still football" I answered her only to receive a weird look from her. It is not like I can tell her I have learned how to play in my past life or something, right?

"Let me just explain the buttons to you then," she said to me obviously not believing that I knew how to play. She quickly gave me a rundown of all the basics of each button on both attack and defence. After she was done, she finally focused back on the game and started picking out her team.

Not wanting to keep her waiting any longer I chose to go with Bayern Munich. I have always loved the team, especially how they have managed to compete with the El Clasico giants and the premier league top six. Emma chose to go with Manchester United which had a star-studded line-up.

Players like Wayne Rooney, Rio Ferdinand and of course prime Ronaldo could be seen sporting the Iconic Red strip. I think it was in 08 that Ronaldo entered his prime going on to put up crazy numbers in the next season with Real Madrid. He went on to battle it out with Messi in La Liga until he be becoming unstoppable in 2014.

The players shook hands and lined up on their perspective sides getting ready for the exhibition match. Bayern Munich was dressed up in white facing the sea of red away fans' jerseys in the Old Trafford stadium.

"Hello, I'm your Host Martin Tyler and with me is Alan Smith we present to you an exhibition match of the highest calibre"

"What a match it is Martin, not every day you get to see these two teams compete with one another."

With the sound of the two iconic commentators' voices, the match soon started. Emma was surprisingly good she kept the ball and used her superior flanks to bombard my box.

Controlling Ronaldo, she charged down the right flank easily getting past Jansen before cutting across the edge of the box.

Not wanting to let her continue further I attempted a slide tackle with Lúcio, but it was too late as Ronaldo shot fiercely from the edge of the box.

The ball drew an arc heading to the top left corner with unstoppable momentum not giving anyone a chance to stop it. It was at this moment that a hand appeared behind the ball tipping it over the bar at the last moment.

"What an incredible run from Ronaldo, he did everything right from start to finish, But Kahn was alert and ready for him" Martins's excited voice rang out as he started analysing what had just happened.

Turning my head to the right I saw Emma sending me a teasing smile, and that is when I realised that this might not be as fun as I thought it would be.

~~~

(Wheet! Wheet! Wheet!)

The referee blew his whistle three times to signal the end of the match if you could even call this a match. The scoreboard displayed a 10:1 win for Manchester and the only reason Bayern managed to score was due to a deflection from a corner kick.

Looking at Emma's smiling face I felt as if my entire worldview had changed. Throughout the whole game, she had been toying with me from using skill moves that sent my players sliding to trying long-range trick shots. From start to finish it looked like she hardly even tried, and somehow, she still managed to destroy me this badly.

"I'm never playing with you again," I told her as I got up from the bean bag trying to suppress the trauma I had just suffered.

"Oh, c'mon I'll go easy on you next time," she said in an attempt to get me to come back and play. One look at her smile though and any thoughts of a rematch were thrown out of the window. I am not a sore loser or anything of the like, but I am not a masochist either, experiencing my pride being beaten up once is enough for me.

"No way, Let's just play something else," I told her as I made my way to one of the arcade games that were in the room. I heard her chuckle a little before she followed me to the next game. However, after losing a few different games to her I started to question my life a little.

We played a total of 5 games and in each of them, she destroyed me effortlessly. At this point, my competitive spirit was roused and all I wanted was to beat her at a game. So, I looked around the room till I noticed a game called Dance dance revolution and my eyes lit up.

I may not be the best dancer but thanks to the system my leg coordination is now on a superb level. I wasted no time dragging her there wanting to quickly try and defeat her. Her smile should have been an indication to me that I was going to get destroyed again and I did end up losing. Turns out she has been taking dance lessons since she was four and is one of the best dancers in her group.

[You bring shame to the Singularity system] Eva commented after my third loss in a row at the game. It is not like she was wrong though I have not been able to beat her at any of the games we have played. Guess they did not lie in front of absolute strength all resistance is futile.

'You are sure she's not the real singularity?' I asked her as I tried to catch my breath from all the dancing. Looking at Emma she looked as if she had just gone through a warm-up instead of a serious dance battle.

[hahaha Maybe her power level is over 900] she answered me with a Dragon Ball reference causing my mouth to twitch slightly. Thinking about it though her power level might as well be over 900 with how effortlessly she has been schooling me. 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com

"I've lost today but I'll definitely beat you someday," I told Emma with determination as I felt like I had just discovered a hidden boss in a video game or something.

"Haha you can try, maybe next time I'll even sweet a little" she calmly told me as she started walking out of the room. Hearing her words was like receiving a critical hit of emotional damage.

It was late so Emma took me to the bathroom so we could get ready for bed. She gave me spare toiletries that were kept in the cupboard for me to use. We quickly finished brushing our teeth and washing our faces using water and some weird cream she handed me.

She led me back to her room and turned on the TV on the wall which I am just now noticing. I need to work on my observation skill if I did not notice this massive thing. she put on the Iron Man before she tucked herself in next to me.

"Hope I didn't traumatise you earlier, it's just been so long till someone was willing to play against me," she said as she remained focussed on the movie, guess she has not seen it yet. Realising the meaning of her words I felt lucky I did not try to bet with her, it would have been like giving myself up for slaughter.

"I think I'll survive although my pride has taken a beating, I did have fun though so thanks," I told her as I turned my attention to her. I just managed to notice a slight smile on her face before it quickly disappeared. I returned my attention to the movie just as Tony's convoy was being attacked.

'Eva Please pull up my rewords' I asked Eva with a little excitement at finally getting my hard-earned rewards.

[thought you would never ask] she answered as the system screen appeared in my vision.
