"Hey let me out! Hey!" I shouted. No one came. They just walked past me. Not even glance once. They put me in the Slammer after the incident. Soon, I gave up and sat at the corner of the pit. My eyes started to get teary. I was really scared. I just got here without any single of my memory. Many question came.

Suddenly a sound of footstep getting near. I wiped my tears and looked through the Slammer window. A pair of legs stood there.

"Hey let me out!" I shouted and look up. It was the Asian boy that pulled my arm just now. He pulled his pants to squatted infront of the Slammer window.

"Calm down, Greenie. I'm gonna get you out of here if you promise me never go behind those shuckin' walls again. Understand?" He warned, send me a shiver.

"What if I don't?" I asked.

"Then, I'm gonna leave." He said make me snapped out.

"Okay okay! I promise." He turned around and cut the rope to open the Slammer door. But he stop.

"Promise me?" He asked again make me anoyyed.

"Yes! Now let me get out of here!" He open the door and let me out.

I walked out and thanks him.

"The name's Minho." I just nodded while stared at him.I can't lie, that he was absolutely attracting. I started to blushed when suddenly,

"Hey! I'm askin' if you had your name, shank." He waved his hand infront of my face make me snapped out from the thought.

"W-what did you say?" I can feel my face started to heaten up!

"I'm askin' for your name Greenie and stop starin' at my face. Never seen a handsome guy before?" He asked again. Damn! He's lot of sarcastic!

"Its Tessa." I ignored the last part and looked away.

We walk to the kitchen when I saw a flame at the middle of the Glade. The Gladers are sitting around the fire and shouting.

"What is that?" I look at the fire. Its getting bigger. Amazing!

"Tonight we're gonna have a bombfire party for you." Minho said and keep walking.

Soon I arrive at the place that Alby, Newt, and Chuck sat.

"Hey Greenie. Never ever do that again unless you're happy livin' in the Slammer." Alby warned.

I just nodded slightly and stood beside Minho.

"Greenie! Enjoy the party!" Alby shouted and walk to the bombfire with Newt and Chuck.

I walk around. There is a fighting circle, where is two people are fighting right now. I walk to the kitchen. The chef name Frypan was barbequing the meat on the BBQ, handing it with the stick that call kebabs. Its pretty tasty. No doubt that Frypan was a chef before he got in here. But I don't think party was my type. So I sat behind a log that facing the entrance of the Maze. Munching my food, blankly stared at the entrance.

"What are you doin' here Greenie?" Minho voice. I looked up and he was stood behind the log, holding a jar of yellow liquid in it and a kebab stick. "- you should be celebratin' right now." He said and took a sit beside me.

"I don't think party was my sort of thing." I said blankly looked at the entrance.

"Yeah. Me too." He stated. And here the awkward tense. Please say something Minho! Anything!

"So. You get how the things work here?" He asked. Finally!

"Yeah I guess so. Truthfully just a little bit scared when I first got here just now. But now I think I'm getting used of it." I replied and became silent. It such a relief that I can tell how am I feel right now.

"You and everyone else in here." He replied.

"Thats what we all have been through. Crying, scared, clueless, screaming in the Box when we first got here. But after Alby showed up, he started to make a rules so that we will make it through this place." Minho exclaimed

"We just have to get use in here, whether we like it or not." He said, make me turn my head to face him. He facing the entrance. I secretly stare at his face. He seem doesn't notice it yet. His eyes was beautiful. His jaw. His lips. Its all perfect. I had to admit it, that he was absolutely handsome.

"Oh here. Taste this." He handing me the jar.

"What is this?" I asked before sniffing the liquid. Its totally gross!

"Try it." He said and I took a sip.
But after that I choked out the liquid. For seriously!!!! Its the worst taste ever.

"What is that?!" I tried to wiped the left reminder out of my mouth, but the taste still stuck in my mouth. I can heard Minho laughing.

"I don't know. Its Gally's recipe. Its a trade secret." He replied and swallowed the liquid in his mouth.

"When I tried to get into the Maze just now, why are you stopping me?" I asked, make him stop laughing and turned to his serious face.

"Trust me. The Maze is dangerous. I just save your life today. You owe me." He said and take a sip of that gross liquid again.

"Okay. Its enough for the question tonight. You should be celebratin'." Minho stood up and pulled my hand.

"I-I don't like p-" I replied when he cutted off.

"We just live once!" He said and dragged me to the crowd. I don't have any choice but follow to him.
