"I'll think about it sir" Jack replied. Even though Shin was 18 years old. The awe that Shin made Jack feel was as high as the sky. His disposition and bearing was different than the rest of the people at his age.
'Are all SMBs this extravagant?'
Shin drove off and proceeded to the clothing store. He still had about an hour before the meetup time.
He bought clothes for himself and for his little brother. He also bought a small bag that was made from a good material. He changed into a skinny black pants and leather shoes. He wore the watch that he bought for 30,000 pesos and then into a plain grey shirt.
He spent more than 100,000 pesos in one go since all of the clothes that he bought were branded. Pencilshoppe, carbon dioxide, fickies, etc.
He threw everything he bought into the back of his car and then rode to the park. He still had 20 minutes to spare so he might as well chill inside the car.
After a few minutes, he saw a man carrying two large containers on his back.
"Tahoooo!!! Buy my taho!!!" The man shouted.
Taho was a common food/beverage in the philippines. One could buy for only 5-10 pesos. It had tofu, sago and that syrup that made the Taho 10000 times better.
Looking at the man, Shin's stomach grumbled.
He craved for a Taho. It was three years or more since he last bought one.
Shin turned the engine off and then exited the car. But before he exited, he wore the shades that he bought earlier.
"Manong, one taho please" Shin said.
The man looked at Shin in surprise. He never thought that someone who owned a car would find interest in such a food that perhaps only normal people would buy.
"Okay wait for a moment." The man said as he put down the two large containers and in the blink of an eye, was able to make a Taho for Shin.
The man gave Shin the Taho. Shin took out his wallet and looked inside of it.
'Cr*p I don't have any change'
"Ah Kuya, is this okay? You can keep the change since I don't have any coins. " Shin said.
He took out a 1000 pesos bill.
The man gulped down and then refused, "No no no... don't pay for it. It's on me. okay okay?."
"No no. It's really okay. Consider it as my gift to you manong for working hard" Shin said as he chucked down the Taho all in one fell swoop.
The man refused again but this time, Shin insisted. Frankly, a 1000 pesos bill was just change for him. With the amount that he earns, he wouldn't even care if he took out 10,000 pesos. Much less 1000.
"Alright alright! With this I can buy food that's worth at least 2 weeks"
The man said as he thanked Shin.
"No problem"
"I'm going to go now. When we see each other again, you'll be my prized costumer and can have anything for free!" The man said with a bright smile.
Looking at his smile, Shin also smiled. He felt warm inside. Although he wasn't someone who could be considered a saint, he didn't mind helping other people out. Especially when he had the capability to do so. His father always taught him that money shouldn't be kept to one's self. But to be shared to other people. To be shared to the poor. He believed in this.
Shin leaned in front of his car and then looked at the surroundings. It was still morning so the sun was quite refreshing.
'Stats Open' Shin thought.

Shin looked at his stats in satisfaction.
'I wonder if I can summon them in Earth?' Shin thought.
He walked towards a part of the park where there weren't any people and said,
"Live"
In an instant, an undead bhear appeared in front of him.
Shin smiled and then waved his hand. The ground suddenly opened up around the bhear and it swallowed the bhear again into the dirt.
