"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING! GET AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed with all the energy left me. Ask me what was it. Adrenaline is the answer. Here I was dyeing in figuring out what to do and this jerk was interested in figuring out if I smell like a cucumber not.

"Why are you too shy today, huh? You never back away whenever I come close to you." He backed away, a smirk evident on his face. Those bluish pools gleamed in haughtiness as he crossed his muscular arms over his chest.

What did he say? He? Came close to me? When? Since when did we start to act like lovers? If he's talking about those encounters where he traps me under him then he's gone crazy. Who the hell would think about physical closeness when they are in the verge of losing their neck. Well, he tried to choke me twice, dislocated my wrist, gave me humiliating challenges and also, almost killed a guy. So, who is the crazy person here, me or that psychopath?

"I think you should go and have a check up for your mental condition. Are you a fucking bipolar or something?"

" Well, who rakes your hair when you are about to fall asleep or saves you from a crashing car?"

"Well, who chokes me to death and swears to destroy me piece by piece?" My hands were on my hips as I looked at him with a smirk. Huh! I gotcha there!

"Will you guys please stop your lovers quarrel and think about what to next?" Allyene walked towards us as she looked at us with a worried expression.

I was dumbfounded at her statement.

"Lovers?" I asked quietly.

"Is that even a word?" He muttered under his breath.

Allyene shook her head and crossed her arms.

" I was at the kitchen and you guys were bickering like kids and when I came here."

My psyche screamed when she said that. Did she see that....

"So, what are you staring at? Come and help me!" I half yelled half whispered as Lara was still in her room.

"Actually, no. I don't trust you with this house. You can break valuable showpieces while cleaning." She said.

"Really! Not you too! How do you even know I break things while cleaning! You don't even know me entirely!" I was very furious at both of them.

"Actually that's the real problem. She doesn't know you yet, so how will she trust you? " His smirk grew even wider than before as I could smell arrogance in the air.

" So, you don't trust me? I thought we were friends." I asked Allyene, a little bit hurt from her words.

"No! I trust you! It's just.... I mean that you can't do it alone. You need companies." She sighed.

"I have another question in mind. Why do I have to do all the weird and crazy things like eat the egg from the floor or kiss a girl or clean the house before sunrise?" My eyes narrowed towards him.

"You kissed a girl! Does that mean that you are.... Oh God, I thought you were straight." Allyene shirked in horror.

"No! No! What are you thinking is totally wrong. The thing is... UHHH...It's complicated, how should I tell you..." I fidgeted with the hem of my dress, my face was almost ready for sobbing.

Shit. I totally forgot that Allyene had no idea of our deals or those tasks.

"So what is it? You just said that you did!" She gripped her dress tightly as she looked at me with big doe like eyes.

"I didn't kiss a girl Allyene. You are getting it wrong!"

"Don't tell lies Casie. You did kiss a girl, in front of everyone without caring. I saw it with my very eyes. " That imprudent jerk rammed in since he enjoyed annoying me till no end. It seems like he was having the best moment of his life.

My hand was over my temple and I tried to lessen my growing headche. Breath...just breath...

"OKAY! I kissed a girl so what's the big deal? You don't have to be others to kiss a girl, right? It's twenty first century, I can do anything I want!"

"Yeah, you can do anything." He said with a smug.

I gritted my teeth in sheer anger; my temper rising higher than ever.

"You got a bad mouth Casie. I thought you were a good girl." Allyene commented again.

"Ahhhhh..... STOP IRRITATING ME! JUST WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK I AM!" I cried out, my body shaking in anger, annoyance, stupidity and other negative emotions.

Both of them exchanged a look as they laughed quietly. I wish I could swipe off that pretty smile. But I couldn't. I stood that, fuming like a mad woman. I can't believe that Allyene teamed up with Travis just annoy me.

"This is not funny!" My words exploded as if my mouth was in fire.

"Okay, okay. I'm sorry. It has been so long since I annoyed someone like this. I just couldn't stop myself from doing that." Allyene wiped a tear from the corner of her eyes.

"So, what's now? What are we going to do?" She asked, solemnity visible on her face.

"You guys need help. So, I allow you to get anyone you want and get to work as soon as possible." Travis said as he made his way towards the stairs.

Before ascending, he turned his head towards my direction.

'Remember, whatever you do, don't come to my room." He sternly spoke. His eyes stayed still as if they were warning me behind closed doors.

After his departure, both of us sat on the sofa, each of us drowned in our own train of thoughts.

So, I just need some people who will help in cleaning without taking any charges? Well, for me, I know only two people in the galaxy would be willing to do that. Now let's see if they are willing to do it or not.
