Sometimes we need to let go
Because only then
Will we gain more

"As an advantage, the winning team is allowed to switch 5 items out of the treasures with any of the other team. So what do you want to switch?"
I look at Lily with a smile blooming on my face just to see one on hers we turn to Yu Lin and say, "The pot!" Food comes first you know.
"For a stuffed elephant" Lily continues
"The tablet for our necklace" I say getting a nod of approval from Lily
"The umbrella for our flashlight" I continue causing Lily to look at me with a confusion etched on her face.
"Explanation"
"I know how to make a tent so no use would be of the spotting gloves but we need to make sure we are invisible"
"Okay, go on"
"A blanket for the stove for more points my liege" I said as I turned and bowed to Lily, who looked at me with exasperation.
"Are you sure about your choices? There are more switches to make. Are you sure about leaving things the way that it is?"
"Yes!" Lily and I say in unison.
"Quite the cunny one Lia, okay crew calculate the points now." Yu Lin says smiling of the crew.
"I guess food comes first for team purple"
"Yes it does" "Hmm"
"Team purple has 68 points, team orange 55 points"
"That is close, too close" I say shaking my feet and nervousness
"I know sweets" Lily says interlacing our fingers
"Team red..."
"Are they gonna be the dark horse and stand in the way of team purple or are they just gonna join and follow the purple"
"35 points"
Three actions happen simultaneously Lily and I start jumping up and down with our hands still interlaced, Yu Lin says "I guess not" while Andromeda stumps her feet sporting a pout on her face.
"That's all for today then, go bathe and see you all at 10:00 am. I will tell you your punishments during the brunch. We are having A county style brunch. Please dress appropriately." Yu Lin says looking directly at Andromeda.
The camera pans over in our direction as we head two our respective rooms. With one last shared smile with Lily, I turn to go to my room. I am so glad that we are allowed privacy and our own rooms imagine the racing materials netizens will extract from that show. They are already making fully clothed idols look sexy with the help of evil editing, imagine what they would do with us. I shudder to even think about it.
I wash my hair because it is matted from me combing my fingers through it during the treasure hunt. I drench my arms and legs in eucalyptus oil infused with lavender and wear a breathable long sleeved shirt to avoid getting bit by mosquitoes and khaki pants with hold that the eucalyptus would repel bugs.
I wear my sandals and head to the cafeteria with a hungry belly. I bring the oil with me just in case someone else needs it.
I entered the cafeteria to see Adrian animatedly talking to Calla about something that managed to capture her attention. Julia spots me and beacons made a sit next to her ,Lily spots me and does the same. Stuck between two decisions Lily decides to walk over and sit a chair over so that I am left with the ability to sit in-between them. I smile at her while taking my seat.
Kai walks with the Bloom twins behind him, one looking sour and the other looking forward to the meal like I am. Kai surprisingly sits next to Calla, Alastair sits next to Adrian, and Andromeda, who is dressed appropriately this time, sits next to Lily, and Yu Lin sits at the head of the table directly opposite to Andromeda.
"I know you are all looking forward to see the rewards and punishment but I like to strike when my prey is full and vulnerable. Thank you Andromeda for following the words that came out of my mouth." Yu Lin says with a smirk on his face as he gestures with his hand for the meal to be brought in.
An assortment of delicious food was brought in causing me to salivate at the smell and sight of them. A county really has the best brunch. As soon as the food was placed on the table all conversations were halted and all our attention was drawn to devouring the feast in front of us.
Halfway through the meal Yu Lin goes, "Due to arriving late both time Andromeda Bloom of the red team has gained a disadvantage for her team mate and herself. The disadvantage is going to be revealed during the next mission. Oh, the next mission is going to be tonight so prepare accordingly. Since I am feeling generous I will give you a hint, the stars look amazing at night."
"Camping?"
"We are sleeping outside?"
"I am not going to be food for those insects."
"No way"
"Too bad, don't care, don't mind, cause baby... it's happening. See you tonight. Calla, my love, how I adore you. Oh, and I am not sleeping out there with you. I am too pretty to be insect food." Yu Lin says walking way.
"And I guess we are" Lily says dejectedly causing all of us to nod
We are so screwed!
