"Alright Silvester, look, we do not have any plan to survive in there when we get in all we want is to know how to survive much longer than the rest of them who has gone in there. We wish to know how the interior looks like and just maybe we can find a way to carry out what we have in mind before our time elapses. So if you are expecting me to describe what I need exactly I am sorry I do not have that answer right now. All I'm expecting from you is to tell me what you have seen and describe exactly how the interior of that arena looks like." Gasps* Ethan finished and listened carefully as Silvester began to give him the description of how the place looks like. After taking for about six minutes with convincing information, Ethan asked, "Can you tell the distance the maze is from the arena ground? And is there any demarcating line between them?" "It is very difficult to figure that out because we are viewing from outside the arena and you know that before one gets to approach the line
"Hey come on, you did not have to keep getting mad at that simple act of kindness, I know he needed the money that is why I give it to him. You know he was anything mad at me for interrupting his game, and so it was obvious that he was losing I got to give him the money, which was the more reason why I chose him to be the one to give us something from what he's got from his observations. Please see it this way that we helped that guy out there to get back at his game and also have an opportunity to survive; you can't tell, he may need the money now more than we do." Ethan spoke softly patting her on her shoulders to pacify her."Alright." Isabel said and threw her face away accepting to agree with him for giving Silvester the money she felt would serve a great deal for the both of them because at the moment she was not thinking she may not survive when I get into the arena. She kept thinking about seeing her mom again instead and the hopes of her getting to see her mom beclouded her fe
"Oh you think I am mad now or overreacting for no reason? This calls for overreaction, Terra. Don't you even try to make it sound like you are not pissing me off to make me go bananas with such question. You did made me angry and I don't like it! It is not our money, Terra! You can't eat or spend money can you? Unless you want to cheat me by taking it back after I have completed your tasks. You owe me and you should know that the money in my account is you paying me and hence it belongs to me. You should keep off, Terra!" He ranted staring at the mirror in front of him with his hands on the washbasin attached to the wall. Terranova: "I may not be able to spend the money with you or even eat but whatever you do you should know that I feel it. I feel everything. I could sense the taste of the meal in your mouth, feel your rage, your jealousy, pain, love, I mean, why do you think I know almost everything when it has to do with how you feel? I knew you do not have feelings of love for Is
"No, not at all. I think it is because there are no cameras inside the arena of death that is to display anything for people who are out here in D.C. United. They might have one for themselves up there in the capitol hill. You never can tell." She uttered showing no doubts at all. "True. We can not even rely on that anyway but it is fine. I think we should forget about all these and have fun you know. Besides we have no idea what tomorrow may bring, so let us better have ourselves a good time now. So, what have you ordered?" Ethan said forcing a smile as he inquired of her to know what she had asked the waitress to bring to the table while he was away. After eating they kept talking about their experiences of the past until the music began to play and the people around got up on their feet to dance, "...I won't forget that very day in a hurry, it was such a marvelous thing I did and my dad was so proud of me he took me out for a horse ride. I wish to do that again, go out for a rid
"Are you going to take a shower or just go straight to bed?" Ethan asked as they entered the house. "I will have my bath first." She replied. The moment she was done relying him after taking off her shoes, she walked into the bathroom sluggishly he could sense she has lost her vibes, though he felt she was feeling less energetic because he had not replied her or it could be that she was sad he did not love her as much as he affirms to love Madison. For a second, the thoughts crossed his mind, ... Terranova was right about her feelings for me. Terra must have been right about me not paying attention to Isabel. Gosh, what if she does not make it out alive tomorrow? At least I should show her some affection to fill up the void, besides she has not made mention of any guy in her life to me. She must have been deprived of having someone love her that closely and she has been kind to me... Ethan pondered with both hands on his waist while standing on his feet in the midst of the sofa chai
"Ummm, I'm sorry for asking, I knew you won't be because the water is warm," he said and was quiet for a minute then immediately spoke up when he felt his thigh touch the delicate skin of her lap, "Isabel, you know what I really want right now?""No. What do you want?" She replied with a breaking voice as she turned to look at him, hoping to have him engage her in a conversation. "I want to hug you, Isabel." He said with an affectionately tensed voice she knew he was also desiring her but could not make the move all these while. A smile glimmed across her face before she said with a happy tone, "Me too." After she said that, the bathroom creeped into silence as they both had their eyes shimmering with affectionate bond for each other whilst they stared right into each others eyes. Ethan lifted his left hand and crossed it over her shoulders then pulled her into his arms with his right hand wrapping her entire body into his. She covered her face in his right collar bone the moment he
"Ummm, no, I mean, yeah. I thought you would not want that." He half stuttered with a thoughtful stare as he nudged his forehead with the fingers of his right hand. "Why would I not want that? Except you're not comfortable with it then it is okay. I do not want to force you to do what you are not ready to do." She said and was about turning to face the opposite direction but he stopped her immediately, and placing his hands on her shoulders, he said, "I already talked to whatsoever will make you happy. And besides I really want to cuddle you. So could you please stop acting like you do not know that I feel the same way as you do." Ethan said, taking a deep breath before moving his hands upwards to her neck region, "I know you are a virgin and I do not want to do anything that will undo that, but does that stop me from kissing you? Have you even kissed anyone?" He asked inquisitively. "No I have not." She said slowly in what seems to be a whisper as her eyes dimmed because he had hi
"You do not have to sacrifice your love for Madison for me. Ethan, I am fine so long as you stay alive and care about me as a sister to you. You can get married to Madison if everything works out between you two, even if I survive after all these, I will be happy to see you two have a happy ever after. After all, I do think myself being in Madison's shoes, how is she going to feel that her boyfriend she's known and had feelings for for a long time now, suddenly gets attached to someone new not even her class and spend a lifetime with, forgetting all you two have had with each other all those past years. Now that won't be fair and I won't pretend to have a blind conscience." She expressed herself vividly. "I have never come across anyone who does not think of themselves like you do. You are a rare personality and that is still more reason why I am going to do whatsoever it takes to ensure that you are safe. I'm speaking of taking you as a sister I have already done that and I wish to
