Time:- 2:56 am
I was calmly sleeping on the bed. The bed hall silent . Only sound of someone snoring or coughing was audible. It was a tiring day. We might got the grociers neccesary but still we lost and sting made it actually bad to sleep at first.
I was deep in sleep and even in sleep i can still think of lisa smirk and Victor monkey dance he did as mocking us after winning
Suddenly a hand on my shoulder gave me a soft tap. After a moment a small shake and my sleep was broken. I got up on my elbow, looking at lisa with confusion and slight annoyance "what happened,lisa?" My voice thick with sleep and i didn't hide any possible annoyance in my voice.
"My water bottle is empty, so i yours. Go and fill me water up" she said as she handed me the bottle and without further words laid back on her place.
The audacity to break my sleep for such stupid task was the chilli on my wound which i was trying my best to cool and aid down. And it was final snap i needed and I said through my gritted teeth "are you fucking stupid? Did you just broke my sleep for me to fill your fucking sleep? You.... audacious woman"
The anger in my voice was build on pure annoyance at the disrecpect. I knew she was wrong for behaving such way and trying to make me feel inferior. But deep down I also knew , nothing gives me right to speak in such manner"
Lisa says "I have the ultimate right to do so. You are my squire, do as I say or else your whole team will get penalty"
Back during we was getting punishment for defeat
Dany listened to the proposal of lisa and was smiling with that dark glint which spoke that he got exactly the conflict he wanted between house mates.
"What if the someone refuses to listen to the winner?"he asked Lisa while glancing at me. As he exactly knew that whom the question was meant to be.
Lisa thoughtfully paused and replied. "If even person refused. His entire team will be nominated for elimination voting at the end of week"
Present
My jaw clenched but even my selfish ass knows that if my team gets nominated because of me. I will lose even more reputation. And i will be more selfish in media perspective.
Finally i took the bottle with a bit of force which was still because of my pent up frustation. I brought her water from all the way across the kitchen.
She took the bottle and didn't even drank from it and just went back to sleep. Something that makes me bite my hand for test of my patience.
And I knew this was one of her sweet revenge she is getting for past.
Time:- 8:30 am
Rose was cooking breakfast alongside Riley this time. Since entire team A was just chilling and waiting. I was given duty to chop Veggies and I suck at it.
Alexis sat beside me "dude. You cut like you never touched knife. No wonder you always used double for stunts." His words landed on my dick.
My blood boiled and my cutting skills reached another level of shame as i started cutting on wrong side out of frustation.
Lisa called out from front of me "cut it properly, Alex. We are going to eat proper food , since we earned it after beating Team B" her words again landed on my dick.
My blood level reaching another high, all i could see was red. I increased my pace and started cutting super fast. Focusing entirely on the veggies I am going to cut.
Time:- 9:10 am. Location:- storage room
Riley was putting bandage over cut on my finger "here. Everything is fine, you should not get frustated. They was just teasing you "
I scoffed "yeah yeah, like rage baiting me. Trying to get reaction out of me"
She gently smiles and pat me at head like I am a baby, i don't like being treated like a child and it angers me. But i felt good. "Get ready, your breakfast is still waiting. Omelette and veg sandwich"
"Thank you" i nodded and followed her out. Lisa was waiting by the door, she nodded at Riley, a silent signal to leave me and her alone.
Riley obeyed so and with a final concerned look at me ,she left to the dinning area. Lisa waited for her to be out before she turned toward me "are you serious? You need to work on your temper."
I clenched my jaw "temper? More like you trying to push my buttons. Don't tell me you was joking when you sent me fetch ya water in middle of night"
She sighed and said "my bad. I was wrong to push your buttons. The harmless fun was just to stupid of me. I am sorry about that" her voice regains a bit of firmness but a hint of worry and guilt also "but that doesn't mean you will play with knife" she turned around, playing it cool
"Okay. I will not cut my finger, as long as you give me task without poking me. " I said, and she nodded "Alright, I won't poke you" a hint of smile caught her and she says "perhaps a little teasing can work. My back is hurting, a massage might..."
A bit of genuine laugh escaped and i nodded "yes, my lady. A massage, anything else? Should I make wine out of water?"
"If you can do that, I would give you extra sandwich"
"Sandwich is all this servant ask for , my lady"
Time:- 3:00 pm
I was in smoking area, a telephone Booth like room for smoking. the curtain of the smoking area opened Luna enters "yo"
"You walked? You was staring ceeling like a dead man. I thought you passed out with eyes opened"
"Not really, make a space"
I moved aside, giving her a seat on smoking seat
"Do you think, the real task will start soon?" She asked me
"What do you mean"
"Real tasks. We all knows ,this dodgeball bullshit was child play. No idiot want to see us playing dodgeball for 3 months" she lights up her ciggerate and puffed out a smoke
Thought caught my head. What will be the first real task be. Today is likely day for us to chill around. But Tommorow.... Tommorow we will have first real task.
Time:- 5:35 pm
Rose and Rina singing songs. Everyone was gathered at the living room to enjoy the entertainment in the boring day. I sat between Riley and Lisa
"Alex, how did you tolerated these two jokers in your team yesterday " Lisa asked
"Well, patience "
"Don't lie, you lack patience "
"I pretty much avoided them, Rose is sweetheart. But Rina is pretty annoying " i whispered
"No wonder you lost"
"What's the point of even this discussion "
"I don't know much. One of them is faking the act" she said with finality
Next morning. Time:- 10:00 am .
Everyone gathered in living room. Dany appeared on screen to announce the task
Dany appeared with a grin that said he is going to get TRP for this episode"Today you will have your first task. And for that, A special guest will arrive. Please welcome Francisco daclorix "
Francisco daclorix....the name echoed in my ear. The one person responsible for everything happened in my life.
