"…And for the winner of Prague Chess Festival Challenger Section, please welcome, Grandmaster Adrian Sheva from Indonesia!"
As the announcer called his name, as the people around rose and gave their standing ovation, Sheva walked calmly to the podium. He ignored Bagas, who was busy filming this scene, having his skin thickened already from his best friend's antics.
It was quite strange, walking in such a calm manner as he was about to receive a reward. If it were him a few months ago, he would never have dared to think about something outrageous like this. However, as time went by, and with the accolades that he accumulated, the boy slowly started to get used to this scene; the firework in his heart wasn't exploding as big as in the past anymore.
