Chapter 10 - “Start with the door, end with the door.”

7:00pm

Nex – Standing in front of the house, he sees that the door is open.

Nex – "Celeste, are you inside? Look, I don't like this kind of joke."

Nex then goes inside, first looking in the kitchen, but Celeste isn't there.

Nex doesn't get any response, which makes him very anxious. He runs toward the bedroom, and when he opens the door, he sees Celeste sitting there.

Nex – "What happened?"

Celeste – "This trouble will end in just a minute."

Nex – "oh you are wake"

Celeste – As soon as she hears this, she goes under the blanket.

Nex – Nex grabs the blanket to pull it away and says, "Come out."

Celeste – "No."

Nex – "Why?"

Celeste – "I'm feeling very shy."

Nex – "Right now, you're feeling shy about this?"

Nex pulls the blanket, and Celeste falls straight onto the floor.

Celeste – "Now you're dead, Nex."

Nex starts to run, but Celeste blocks his way and says, "Can you beat me at everything?"

Then Celeste grabs a pillow and hits Nex with it. "You embarrassed me in the morning," she says while hitting him.

Then Celeste starts laughing.

Nex also picks up a pillow and hits Celeste back.

Celeste gets angry and grabs another pillow, aiming at Nex. Nex moves forward, but his foot slips, and Celeste is about to fall to the ground when Nex catches her hand.

Celeste – "Thank you, Nex."

Nex – "No, I'm not that good person.

But then he lets go, and Celeste falls to the floor again.

Celeste – "You never leave a chance to bother me."

At dinner time, Celeste and Nex both have bandages on their heads.

Nex – "Please, please make something for dinner."

Celeste – "No."

Nex – "Okay, let's play a game."

Celeste – "No."

Nex – "Look, being this angry isn't good either."

Nex forces Celeste to play a game. Only truth (no dare).

Nex – "Okay, you ask the first question."

Celeste – "No, you ask first."

Nex – "Fine, ask anything."

Celeste – "Why do you let me stay in your house?"

Nex gets a little nervous.

Nex – "See, you think I have bad intentions."

Nex – "It's not like that. I just felt pity for a helpless girl who wouldn't have house if she left. When I saw you, you didn't even say thank you."

Celeste – "I was very angry, that's why I didn't say anything."

Nex – "Okay, now it's my turn." (Nex thinks: Should I ask her something that might mess with her mind? But no, she doesn't even have a mind.)

Nex – "Tell me honestly, don't you feel scared living with me?"

Celeste – "No."

Nex – "If I fo dome thing with you "

Celeste stands up from her chair, sits on Nex's lap.

Nex – "Do you think I'll be scared of you now?"

Celeste holds Nex's face and says:

Celeste – "Look into my eyes."

After a while, nex can't keep eye contact and looks away.

Celeste – "That's it, I win."

Celeste – "I already gave my answer."

Nex – "No, you didn't."

Celeste – "Okay, now I don't know wish to ask for."

Nex – "Then ask later."

Celeste – "Fine."

Nex – "Before sleeping, one last question: how do you feel about me?"

Celeste – "Like that police officer who never goes in his job 

nex - start laughing 

Nex – "Okay, fine, go to sleep now."

Nex's room

Celeste – "I want to sleep with you."

Nex – "No way." Nex shuts the gate.

Midnight

Celeste – Click, click (opening the gate)

Nex – "What happened?"

Celeste – crying.

Nex quickly opens the gate and sees Celeste crying. Then Celeste hugs him tightly.
