Chapter 30 - Day 5 (IV)

"Are you serious about that?" My eyes widened as I looked at her.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" She asked me seriously.

"Based on your facial expression, it's no. But please enlighten me why do you like to watch it? Is it interesting?" I asked bluntly.

"It's a romantic movie," Laura replied.

I shook my head slowly. "No. Even if I'm the youngest here, it's still a no. You should follow what I've said."

"Why?!" Marie knitted her eyebrows.

"Have you watched it? It's a daring movie, not a romantic one. Do you like to watch it with your boyfriends or fiancé and with these boys?" I pointed at the RealSeven.

They threw a glare at me and if looks could kill I'm definitely lifeless right now.

"You're not innocent anymore. I know you already watched it." Lovie muttered as she glared at me.

"You're right," I said. "If you guys want to watch it then go. I will sleep early."

I stood up but, they immediately pulled me on my wrist so I fell on them.

"Don't be a killjoy, Louise," Haye said as she rolled her eyes.

I let out a big sigh out of frustration. Why they can't understand that it's awkward to watch it with boys? It has a lot of bed scenes and guess what? It's just not ordinary bed scenes like we used to watch in some other romantic movies. This one is very dangerous to watch on.

Okay, I'm exaggerating.

"Let's make a bet," Laura said. "If you answer the riddles correctly, choose whatever movies you want to watch on but, if not then we will watch 365 days. When I said "WE" it means including you."

"I'm not good with riddles." I sat again in between Karl and Jacob.

"You're good at that." Sheena cheered me.

"Fine. Let's begin." I said bluntly. I have to win this game or else we'll watch that movie and I don't want that to happen.

I stared at them while they were thinking and searching for some riddles to be solved.

"I found it one!" Coleen exclaimed. "Listen, Louise, a woman is at her mother's funeral when suddenly she sees a man so handsome, she instantly falls in love with her. Unfortunately, she never got a chance to talk to the man. The next day, the woman kills her sister. What was the motive?"

"I've read it somewhere when I was finding the riddles for my teaching," I said lazily.

"What's the answer then?" Junior asked. All their eyes fixed on me and waiting for my answer.

"Every time someone died from her family, the man would show up. Since she didn't get a chance to talk to him, the next day she killed her sister so she would see him again." I replied as my lazy eyes fixed on them.

They gaped for a few seconds but, they immediately went back to themselves.

"You never fail us. It's amazing." Axel said as he's clapping his hands.

My forehead creased as I'm looking at him confusedly.

"You easily got that?" Jacob said as he widened his eyes and covered his mouth.

"Of course. As I've said earlier, I've read it already so I knew the answer." I uttered.

Laura cleared her throat to get our attention. "It's not done. I will not let you win."

"I'm done." I raised my two hands as an act of surrender. "If you want to watch it then go. I'll watch it with you."

I heard a scream from my friends and RealSeven looked at them confusedly. While Andrew is busy searching for that movie, Karl nudged me gently.

"I thought you're a moron but, you're actually good at solving that riddle." He smiled.

"Are you mocking me?" I squinted my eyes.

He shook his head. "No. I was just amazed how you answer it within 5 seconds."

"Did you hear what I've said?" I asked him. "I told you that I've read it already. Please, clean your ears first before you say nonsensical things."

His smile faded when I said those words.

"I'm hurt." He uttered and he bowed.

"I won't say sorry because you're obvious that you're acting. Nice!" I applauded.

He burst into laughter so I beat him again. I just shook my head while looking at him laughing insanely.

"We're sorry about his behavior towards you. When he's comfortable around people, he will show his naughty side." Jacob said as he leaned closer to me.

I nodded. Sometimes my head was empty to utter some words. As I was waiting for Andrew to play the movie, I looked at the sea

"Stop staring at me," Jacob said.

"Don't assume that my eyes is looking at you. I'm looking at the sea." I said.

He chuckled. "I didn't expect that I will meet you here, sadist girl."

I was supposed to say something but, our companions hushed us so I looked at the white screen. The movie was played already and I averted my gaze around just not to watch it. They were already excited, even Sheena and Axel focused on the movie.

"Hey, why didn't you like that? The woman is so pretty." Jacob uttered while his eyes fixed on her.

"Yeah, she's pretty. I just don't want to watch it when you guys are with us, girls." I replied, not looking ahead.

He nodded then he came back watching it. I looked somewhere just to avoid seeing those scenes. I heard a loud gasped of them then I easily looked at the white screen, it was on the part where they were in a yacht.

"That was hot. Yah!" Ivan screamed as he held his crotch. We burst into laughter while he's hiding behind Johan.

"This scene was familiar," I whispered. "Ah! Ivan held his crotch as well when they were watching the cheerleading in Austria."

I looked at Jacob and he's covering his two eyes so I gently nudged him with my elbow.

"Are you afraid to watch it?" I teased him.

"No. I don't want to see that scene." He replied then he looked at me while his hands still covering his eyes.

"Really a gentleman huh?" I smiled.

"Is it done?" He asked while he's staring at me. I looked at the screen but still hasn't finished yet.

"Nope," I replied as I looked at him.

While I was looking at Jacob, Karl pulled my hair so I threw a glare at him.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked him.

"He just wants you to notice him, Louise." Justin teased him, laughing out loud behind me.

"Why would I?" I asked.

"You guys are like cat and dog. You're always fighting with each other." I heard Marvin say behind Karl.

"I agree. Maybe, in the end, you will end up with each other. He will be your end game, Louise." Axel giggled as he clung to Sheena's right arm.

"It can't be." The 6 members of RealSeven said it together so we looked at them.

"Omg!" Marie exclaimed. "So... Do you like Louise?" She asked as she wriggled her brows.

We fell silent and waited for their answer. I bit my lower lip while looking at them.

"O-Of course not!" Ivan broke the silence. "W-We're appreciating their beauty I meant, her beauty rather."

"Y-Yeah. He's right. And if she will end up with Karl, we're okay about that." Jacob said and laughed awkwardly.

"Yes!" Karl screamed. "So Louise, will you marry me?"

"No," I said. I heard their laughter.

"Why? I like you." His words made our souls awake from sleeping.

"Hey! Don't play with her feelings," Junior said as he's pointing at him.

"No. I'm not. I really like her. Remember when I said it's my first time seeing her that's why I don't sure about my feelings? I'm referring to her." He looked at me.

They were waiting for my answer but, I can't speak right now. The words in my head are too cloudy and I don't know what should I react or what should I say. This is so unfamiliar to me.

"I thought you wanted to watch that movie? Why were you focusing on me?" I diverted the topic.

"We're already sleepy," Haye said before she yawned.

I stood up and approached the laptop. It's time for me to change the movie. As I was scrolling through the laptop, Marvin stood behind me.

"The night is still young so we have some time to watch several movies." I heard he say.

I ignored him and still searched for a movie to watch on. While my eyes fixed on the screen, I stopped immediately when I spotted the movie that I really love. I smirked as I played the movie.

"You must watch this, Our Times." I smiled as I went back to my seat.
