It had been a week since the sponsorship talk with BNI started, and so many things had happened in Sheva's life. First of all, somehow, his living condition got better, as the sponsorship also included some sort of 'allowance' to improve his situation back home. The money was a lot, the same amount as the monthly minimum wage in Jakarta. For Sheva, who didn't do anything else except for studying chess, this was definitely a bargain that was too hard to refuse.
Not only that, Sheva also got new and fresh formal attire from the sponsorship, like formal shoes, a formal suit with the BNI logo in it, completed with the trousers, and it came with three sets in different colors: grey, blue, and black. This would allow him to change style during a tournament where he would have to play every game, ensuring that he would still represent the company.
