A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

The others were on board with his idea. They pulled up chairs and sat around the table, unwrapping a brand-new deck of poker cards.

This was the first time Sierra played a game of poker with them. So, Theo sat next to her, ready to give his advice. A knowing smile spread across Daniel, Simon, and Yvette's faces.

"Theo has swept the board in poker every year. Now, we can finally get some of our money back." Yvette rubbed her hands eagerly. Daniel and Simon didn't share her optimism, but they were also fired up to win the game.

Theo nodded, rubbed her hair, and replied approvingly, "You're wonderful. Keep going."
