Who’s the Dog Now? novel Chapter 14

An arcade!

She'd always wanted to come here!

Back in her hometown, she used to go with her friends all the time. But after moving to Tyra, Zebulon and his circle of wealthy friends looked down on such activities, deeming them childish. They preferred to organize their own private gatherings rather than frequenting loud, crowded places, so Naomi had been forced to give up her hobby.

That's why no one in Tyra knew that Naomi, the quiet girl of the Gonzalez family, was secretly a gamer at heart.

"Yeah! I wanna play!"

Ron clearly loved this place too, already waving his arms like the mascots, looking utterly adorable.

Lennon handed Naomi a face mask. "Put this on."

Naomi took it and thanked him in a low voice.

For people of their status, it was indeed better not to be seen so openly in a place like this.

After putting on her mask, Naomi followed Lennon into the arcade.

The large doors slid shut behind them, sealing off the cold, white world outside.

...

Although it was still the Christmas holiday, the residents of the community had many social obligations to attend to. So, after lunch, the gathering quickly broke up.

Mr. Hughes had intended for Zebulon to entertain Colin and the others at home for the day, but the younger generation was always restless. After a bit of clamoring, they all headed out.

"That boy!" Mr. Hughes shook his head helplessly, though a faint smile played on his lips.

His son took after him, and he hoped that when Zebulon eventually took over the family business, he would bring it to even greater heights.
