"Joseph. Joseph, are you alright?" Mary asked as she passed me the bacon and eggs.
It's already morning and I have no idea how I got back to my room last night.
All I remember is agreeing to a certain's survivor deal with a handshake and the next thing I knew, he kissed me.
He kissed me on the cheeks!
I raised my hands and covered my face since I can really feel my cheeks getting hot when I remember what he did last night.
Why did he do that though? Is he making fun of me? Am I that easy to bully?
Ugh, but his smile after the kiss was so breathtaking though. He looks so happy for some weird reason.
Damn it, my face is getting hotter again.
"Did you not have a good rest, Jo?" Wujiu asked.
I shook my head indicating that I did not have a good sleep. How can I sleep if everytime I close my eyes, I can see Aesop's beautiful gray looking at me.
And why does everytime I close my eyes to sleep, he is on top on me. Granted I am a few inches taller than him but why does he look at me like I'm some weak prey?
"I think his broken camera got him insane now." Robbie said biting on his bacon.
"I am currently not in the mood to eat breakfast." I finally opened my mouth and sigh.
"What's the matter?" Luchino asked, dragging the 's' on his question.
I froze at the question. How shall I answer him?
I can't just say, 'well, I think a survivor is blackmailing me but secretly I am happy and scared at the same time.'
I just gave Luchino a faint smile and did not answer his question.
"Do you want to eat ramen, Joseph?" Michiko suggested. I think noodles would do me good.
"Yes, please." I smiled as Michiko went to the kitchen to cook.
"Why is your ear, red?" Robbie asked across the table.
"I, I have been rubbing it this morning." I stuttered as I hid my ears with my hands.
Everyone's gaze is on me now and I can feel my face getting hot at all the staring.
"Are you crushing on someone?" Ann asked as she fed her cat some bacon strips.
I think my mind just went blank on her question. Me? Having a crush? Ha! No way.
"N-no. I don't have a crush on someone." I avoided Ann's stare and direct it to Burke who was smirking. Does he know?
"It's okay to have a crush on someone, Joseph. As long as it's not from the other side." Leo said as he finished his breakfast and stood up. He just smiled and gave me a nod. Does he also know?
"I know that." I pouted as I crossed my arms.
"So, who's the unlucky gal? Is it Michiko? Mary? Ann?" Xubi'an asked smirking.
"Or is it a boy?" Wujiu grinned.
"What?! No way is it a boy." I said with my face as red as a tomato. Both just looked at each other and nodded.
"We get it. As long as you're not crushing on my other half." Xubi'an said as he held Wujiu's hand.
"I don't have a crush on the both of you, bamboos." I said hiding my face.
"You two should get ready since it's your turn today." I added as I stood up and walked to the kitchen.
I can hear them giggling as I entered the kitchen.
"What is it, dear?" Michiko asked me as she laid the bowl of ramen on the counter.
"It's nothing." I said as I got the chopsticks and slurped on the ramen. Michiko really makes the best ramen.
"Is it love problems?" She asked, clearly making fun of me.
"I don't know." I truthfully said. Michiko is my best friend since we got here at the same month. She was here for a week before me though.
"As long as it's not a survivor then you're alright." She assured me as she cleaned the utensils she used.
I stayed silent at her words as I ate.
"You do know that it's forbidden to interact with survivors. If the host finds out, then we don't know what will happen." She warned me.
"I know that. No need to scold me, mom." I joked and she smiled.
"I guess all these matches made you realize you like someone." She said as she sat beside me. I unconsciously nodded at her reply.
She laughed at my gesture and I just realized my mistake that I turned red.
Is this tomato Joseph's day????
"So it really is a survivor." She positively said. I turned my head at what she said.
"As long as you know what you're doing then you're good." She assured and walked back to the dining room.
I finished my ramen and walked to back to my room. I should go to the garden to breathe some fresh air later.
There is a garden just further into the hallway on the left but it has no flowers in it. We don't have someone to take care if ever we plant something in there.
Robbie does not know anything about flowers, all he does there is plant trees and then chop those down. It's a never ending cycle.
I entered my room and closed the door.
I don't have a crush a survivor. My heart is just having irregular heartbeats and I'm sure it'll go back to normal. I just need to do some healthy diet.
Since I have not gotten some good rest last night, I was about to close my eyes when some tapping sound resounded on my window.
It's not raining, is it?
I walked to my window and opened it. Outside my window is an owl with a note attached to it's feet.
I untied the note and the owl flew back to the other side.
It looks like a certain someone is dragging more people into this.
I opened the note and I can feel my face heated up again.
Damn it.
See you in 3 days, my dearest Joseph.
Love,
Aesop 💋____________
