Chapter 24: Nostalgia
Jack revved his bike, the engine rumbling as Richard followed behind. The two of them exited the mansion gates, weaving through the morning traffic of Marawi City.
Their destination—a small print shop nestled between rows of local businesses.
As they parked outside, they were greeted by a young Muslim woman, her headscarf neatly wrapped, standing behind the shop counter.
"Good morning, sir," she said politely.
Jack stepped forward, phone in hand. "How much per page?"
She gestured toward a price list. "Three pesos per page for black and white, and ten pesos per page for colored."
Richard raised a brow. "Bro, you're printing a poster... using regular paper?"
Jack shrugged. "I just wanna try it first. If the quality isn't good enough, we might have to head to Iligan City to print them on cardstock and maybe look for an acrylic signage maker while we're there."
Richard sighed in relief. "Oh, alright. That makes sense."
Jack turned back to the woman. "Just three pages for now."
He quickly sent three gaming artwork files to the shop's computer via Bluetooth. The printer hummed to life, and within minutes, the woman handed over the three freshly printed colored posters.
