Chapter 170 Lets play last par (2/2)

Emily who was watching the scene felt like what Alex did was within expectations. If he didn't pick her who was the closest to him, when the dare was initiated. That would only mean, Alex sensed danger in doing so, making the three girls present a threat. So he decided to pick a girl outside the three, but was also present. Emily was able to quickly see through Alex's thought process. If it was before, Alex would've picked the most efficient path despite the consequences, but now he was actually thinking about other people's feelings. This was proof that Alex was slowly maturing.

Evangeline also had a different take on the situation. She wasn't bothered by the fact Alex kissed Rachel's mom. She was more concerned by what led to the choice of choosing Rachel's mom to be the person that was kissed.

'Alex didn't choose Rachel from the get go, actually at first I noticed that he was going to pick Emily. Since his line of sight was on her, for the longest time... Still I guess that would be because of the efficiency that Alex likes so much, seeing Emily was the closest to him, he would think that it would be easier to finish the dare if she picked her. Then after that he didn't do it, he changed his focus and looked at Rachel then me. Alex actually hesitated, I haven't seen him do that before. Is Alex's feelings, actually wavering? Is this my chance?'

While everyone was having there own thoughts about the current situation. Alex who noticed them staring at him, was confused.

”Did I violate a rule? You did say that I could kiss any girl present. Kumiko was present so I thought she was eligible, but was I wrong?”

When all of them heard Alex's question, the group could only sigh. Of course that was to be expected of Alex. It was them who was being weird not him.

”No it's all good, you did the dare properly... But I guess, after that no would like to play truth or dare for awhile.” Emily looked at the others wanting to hear their opinion.

While that was happening, seeing everyone was distracted Kumiko left the scene.

”Yeah I don't feel like playing anymore. That gave me a lot of mental damage.” Rachel agreed with Emily, that they should stop playing truth or dare.

”Yeah, if I saw something like that again, I might actually have a heart attack.” Kei who was usually so shy around them, was finally able to speak in a more casual manner.

”Whatever you guys decide, I will follow your decision.” Oliver wasn't really bothered by the event, but still understood that the group doesn't want to play truth or dare anymore. Still to Oliver as long as the sleepover continues, everything was all good.

Alex and Evangeline just nodded their heads, without saying anything.

”Okay since we are all in agreement, will stop playing truth or dare... Let's see what time is it?... Ten, twenty two, pm. I see, how about we tell some ghost stories before we got to sleep?”
