Ken pulled out his phone and saw that he had a new email from Ai which seemed to be a little cryptic. In any other situation he wouldn't have hesitated to put some time aside to talk to her, however he was a little busy at the moment.

The sound of his brother's voice interrupted his train of thought.
"O-Okay one moment!"
