So, if I understood correctly Hatter's speech

He is the king of the 'beach', a utopia, where you can do whatever you want, dance, eat, drink, take drugs, have an orgie...

But only if you swear to give him your precious little cards and only wear a bikini

Said that way, I now understand better what a shithole this place is. There is nothing for me here, except for the shower

Oh, I almost forgot, and for the sumptuous locker bracelet they so happily offered me

I don't know how long I'll be able to stand this place... But for now, I have to find allies. I can handle heart games by myself, but if want to survive clubs and spades

I better find trustworthy people

But in this place, pfff
Finding a needle in a haystack would be easier

I already took a notice of a few players that could be useful, they seemed athletic and strong but really naive and easy to corrupt

I sit on the bed of the room I've just been given, close my eyes and let my back hit the mattress

But not even a minute later someone enters my room

Really who even knows I'm her-

Of course, it's him

We just stare at each other, he looks ashamed

None of us dare to speak first

'Aime I-', I don't let him finish I jump from my bed and slap him on the cheek

He licks his lips with his tongue and -oh another piercing, wonderful- and clenches his jaw

He takes a deep breath and looks back at me. His tall frame makes me look up to meet his eyes

His once ashamed look now is replaced by fury

I really don't recognize him at all

'Don't you dare call me Aime! You disappeared from my life without saying anything! No note, no text, no nothing! And when I find you here again, your whole face is covered in piercings, your new best friend is a riffle! Fuck you even pointed it to the man that saved me Niragi!'

Now I am the furious one

I take a step forward, but he doesn't move, his chest is moving up and down rapidly. He is trying to calm himself

'Oh and now I am some 'chick you frequented'?' He looks down, avoiding my glare. 'Did you play a game that made you amnesiac or something? Have you forgotten that I was your friend? Your only friend!! That I was the only one who stood up for you against those freaks at school? Against your dad when he was treating you like garbage? That I am the one who took you in when you ran away?!!'

Silence falls in the room, only our heavy breaths fill our ears

We stay like this, standing in front of each other

We're so close, yet so far

I silently say

'It feels like we went from strangers to friends, friends into lovers, to strangers again...'
