CONTINUATION (CHAPTER FIVE)...

After eating, we played another game. I don't really remember the name of the game but, you form a circle. The person who's "it" has a handkerchief, and he will go around and around the circle and drop the handkerchief to someone. When the person finds out that the person dropped the handkerchief to them, they will need to throw the handkerchief to them successfully to save their spot. But you need to watch out, because the person might steal your spot while you are trying to target them. If they do that, you're the next person who have to drop the handkerchief to someone else. If you successfully thrown the handkerchief to the person, they have to step inside the circle.

But what if you don't realize that the handkerchief is dropped to you?
If that happens, the person who's "it" have the chance to make you "it" and yeah, you're the next person who have to drop the handkerchief to someone else.

Anyway, enough explaining. So yeah, we played that, and Jeremy is "it". I concentrated deeply and tried to see if the handkerchief is still with him, or if he already dropped it.
To see it, I touched the ground behind me and guess what, he dropped the freaking handkerchief behind me! I grabbed it and Jeremy started to run away. What the, he only took a few steps and he's already so far away from me! Sigh, this guy will be hard to beat. He's too good at everything.

Everyone is just shouting at me(especially Chloe)to just throw the handkerchief at him, or at least attempt to run to him. I can't choose between two, because the handkerchief is too light to reach Jeremy, and at the same time, if I run to him, he'll steal my spot!

Chloe stood up from her position and whispered to me.

Chloe: *whispers* give him a taste of his own medicine.
Emily: huh? How?
Chloe: *takes some rocks and puts it in the handkerchief* there!
Jeremy: oh my, that's gonna hurt!
Chloe: *whispers* go. *goes back to her spot*
Emily: *sigh* *runs to Jeremy*

I ran to Jeremy and he successfully and quickly escaped. I threw the handkerchief at him but he dodged it! The only choice now is to chase him and pass him the "it".

So I ran to him and tried to corner him but I was too late. He's really speedy, and he already stole my spot. Great! Thank you for making me look weak and you unbelievably made me the first loser of this game!

I took the handkerchief and I dropped it on Ray. He realized it and Chloe screamed to me "RUN!" So I ran, and Ray is just getting ready to throw the handkerchief at me. He threw it at me, and I luckily dodged. Hell yeah! At least I get a spot again.

So we played the game for several minutes, then Jeremy and Ray's mom made them go home. Jeremy didn't want to go home yet, so when they're walking back home, Jeremy's so mad. Ha! Well, there's always a tomorrow!

Me and Chloe's clothes are soaked by sweat, so we changed our clothes. After that, we spent some minutes watching TV and we all ate dinner.

LATER...

I scrolled on my Facebook. The second day I stayed at Chloe's, FB told me that someone from Saudi freaking Arabia logged in to my account. What the hell! Who could that be and how come they got to know my password? Or like, what even made them think of logging into my account? What bro?

That made me pretty aware, so I decided to make a second FB account. Ever since the second account was created, I have never logged in to my other account again. I don't know, maybe I just find it funner in my second account because it's more private and personal?
