Whom To Accuse ?

DAMIEN'S POV

I was really not happy with this cockroach challenge, I mean, it's not like I am scared of them, but it's just that, I hate cockroach. But I felt really sad for Jess and Car.

Their faces, when Miss M told us about the challenge told us that they were scared to core because of this challenge.

When Miss M asked whether anyone want to quit the challenge, I noticed that Jess was about to quit when Dan whispered something in her ear and and gave her a small kiss.

As I was looking at them, I saw Car, was trying her best to act as if she was strong, but she failed miserably doing that.

So I went towards her and asked her whether she was afraid.

"No, not at all. I am fine. I am not scared. I am strong. I guess." She whispered the last words, but I heard them.

"You will do fine. Believe in yourself and you can do wonders." I told her.

"Where did you learn that line from ?" She asked me.

"Actually, because of my parents I had to attend lots and lots of seminars, I heard this in one of them." I told her scratching the back of my neck.

"You are funny, you know that right ?" She asked me, a small smile appearing on her face now.

"I know." I told her smiling.

"Okay, best luck Ian." She told me.

"Same to you Car." I told her and just in time, Miss M rang the bell.

As soon as she rang the bell, all of us ran in that hut, collected our jars and gloves and boots, wore them, and started with our task.

The scene inside that small hut was completely gross. There were cockroaches everywhere. Everyone was shouting and collecting the cockroaches.

I noticed Jess and Car were the most scared among us. And I was actually surprised that, The Silent Girl was the most bravest.

Edward and Dylan were working on this task as if their life depended on it.
And looking at them, even I started collecting them. It was really a weird experience, I must say.

After sometime, we heard the bell, which meant that the challenge time is over. And so we started making our way out. And it was not a surprise that Jess and Car were the first to come out and hand their jars to the two guys standing outside.

After giving them the jars, when we were about to start talking talking, we heard Miss M's voice.

"Okay, you people did really well with the challenge, now let's see who wins the first challenge and gets to decide the first deprivation. Now you can go and clean yourselves, and be here in one hour." She told us and went away.

"That was the experience of lifetime. I was actually scared in the start, but then I started enjoying it." Mia spoke.

"Yaa, that's true." Justin agreed.

"Are you guys crazy ! What was so fun in that challenge, I was so scared and I didn't enjoy that a bit." Car told us.

"Same here." Jess agreed.

"But still you guys participated. That's really great." Daniel said.

"Games are meant for winning, not for participating. And anyways, I am the one who will win." Edward said.

"No one here is talking to you. And Dan, you are so sweetest person here." Car told him and hugged him, and he hugged her back.

"Thanks for the compliment." Dan replied.
