Game, Set, Match
“This is a new set, isn’t it?” said Erik, softly. He held a hand above the chess board, rattling the carved wooden pieces by their decorative metal bases.
“Yes, it is,” Charles replied.
“When we played, you always chose the set with wooden pieces, while I preferred the metal ones. If I didn’t know better, I would think you had purchased this with both of us in mind, but you bought this after I… after I left.”
“I did,” agreed Charles, rolling his wheelchair to the other side of the table. “Shall we play?”
Erik smiled. “Of course, old friend.”
