(...This, must be the biggest mistake of my whole friggin life...)

Right now, I was sitting by the table, a single card in my hand. The projector, along with the rest of the room to my right. Saeko was on the opposite side of the table, with two cards in her hand. She was also wearing my mask, minus the balaclava. Which was on my shoulder, like a hat. Why? Because my luck fucking sucks. Saeko was 2 wins ahead of me, and since cash was useless, it meant that I 'owned' Saeko two 'favors'. Minus one, for the mask she was tooting on her head right now...

(I always said that gambling is a losing game, so why did I agree on betting? Ughh. The only thing I'm holding is an ace, that's one, or eleven. So, I need a ten...)

"Hmm, hey Naier." Saeko then speaks up, lifting her face to look at me with a casual smile.

"Since Saya said that she is almost ready and this is the last game. Want to make this double or nothing?" She asks...

(...Say no, say no. If she asks something like that, it means she's holding a strong hand...)

"Elaborate?" I ask.

"We will make this count for all the points I am currently ahead of you. In other words, two points." She answers with the same casual smile.

"Uhh, that mask on your head counts for one point though." I retort as I point at her head. Saeko raises her eyes to 'look' towards the top of her head, then closes her eyes with a short giggle.

"Hmm, true, I guess it does. So that just means that you can actually turn the tables on me, if you win." She responds with a slight smirk...

(...Or, I will end up owning you three times. Uhh, it boils down to, play it safe and either go for a tie, or two lost points. Or go for broke and go for one winning point, or three lost ones...)

"Fine." I retort as I draw a card...

(Ohh I'm going to regret this. Uhh, ok. Four. So fifteen, or, five.)

"I am ready then." Saeko responds as she leaves her two cards on the table facing down...

(Uhh, if I draw a six, that's twenty-one. Unless she has a twenty-one under the two cards, I win. No idea if the rules are normally like that, but honestly I don't remember them very well. The other is getting seven cards without passing twenty-one. I have an ace, which means I want six, or small numbers to stack up...)

And, I draw another card...

(..Five. Oh come ON. Uhh, ok, ok. I'm still good, with the rules we play, I'm at ten now, four more cards. Or I'm hosed...)

Saeko just tilts her head slightly, that damn smile still on her face...

"Well, all or nothing now." I let out a small sigh, and drew four cards at the same time, Saeko raising an eyebrow with a small 'ohh?'...

"First, let's see your hand." I add as I leave all cards face down. Saeko nods and flips her cards.

"A King and a Jack. That's twenty..." I blink a couple of times as I look at her hand.

(No wonder she had a strong hand. It was that, or she would have something like fours and threes to lose on purpose, something that really does not seem to be her style...)

"So? Your cards are?" Saeko asks as she leans on the desk slightly. The open gap on her shirt opening even wider, exposing her bra even more...

(She doesn't even seem to care about that hole on her shirt anymore...)

I shake my head slightly and start to flip the cards one by one.

"Ace, one." I then flip the next one.
