CHAPTER 17: PART ONE

CHAPTER 17: PART ONE: Third And Fourth Consequences

"HOW many do you think this consequences?"

Ivyna and Taese are sitting next to each other. They're both staring at the notebook on the top of the table.

"20?" she added.

He shrugged, still looking at the notebook. "Maybe? Dunno really."

Ivyna rested her chin in her palm. " I want to end this now."

"Why?"

Ivyna looked at him. "Why?" she asked, saying how he said it. "What's with that? Don't you want to end this?"

He then looked at her. "Of course, I want."

"But why do you ask me why? Are you perhaps liking. this set-up?"

"N-No!" he furrowed. "Why fhe fuck I like this set up?!"

Ivyna stared at him.

"Don't look at me like that. Let's open the third page."

He picked the notebook and opened it on his own.

Ivyna leaned towards him to read the third consequence.

"What fuck?!" Ivyna reacted shockingly after reading the consequence. "T-This is really... really too much!"

"Touch and lick me down there," Taese read.

"N-No... no... no... I can't! We can't do that! It's... It's too much!" she yelled. "First, this notebook wants to touch my chest and now my... What the hell is this?!"

Taese closed the notebook. And looked at her.

"Oh... no please! Why this notebook want me to be embarrass?! It's toying me!"

Taese sighed. "We will not doing it if you don't wanna do—"

"Of course, I don't! We will NVER do that! What kind of woman is me if I let stranger touch my precious part of my body! It's... It's not..."

"But it's just a dream," he said. "It's all dream. Our dream."

Ivyna didn't speak.

"This dream is not real. And it's will not benefit our real life. Our real personality."

"You mean... let's do that...?"

Taese looked at her.

"That... that I'll let you touch... me?" she hardly said. "Is that it?"

"To end this," he added. "We want to end this, right? And the only thing we could do to end this shit is to follow the consequences."

"But—"

"Okay, okay." He then stood up. "We'll not doing it if you don't." He then turned his back. "I'm gonna sleep."

Hours had passed. Ivyna did not move a bit. She was just staring at the notebook and drowning herself to her thoughts. What Taese's said stuck in her mind.

'It's not gonna benefit our real life, right?' She asked herself. 'But... what if it does? Then, I'm doomed!'

She looked at the door of Taese's room.

'I don't really know him personally. We don't really know each other.'

She then laid herself on the couch. She stared at the ceiling still thinking what must she do.

'And it's my fault why we're stuck here, right?' she thought. 'It's becuase of that drink. I shouldn't drink that at the firdt place.'

'Whatever!'

Ivyna stood up.

"Hoping to not benefit this in our real life." She walkeds towards Taese's door and knocked.

On the other side, Taese was lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling. Thinking why he ended up to this. He was waiting if Ivyna will knocked on his door. He didn't want it, also. He did not want to touch her. But to end this bullshit, he'll do it.

He then closed his eyes, waited for her to knocked. Then, suddenly he heard a knock.

"See?" He heard her voice calling him. "Are you sleep? See?"

'Did she change her mind already?' He asked himself before getting up and walking towards the door.

"See? I think he's asleep now—"

Before Ivyna could take her leave, Taese opened the door. Ivyna stop mid-way walking away.

"Y-You're awake..."

He hummed.

"A-Ah... yeah... uhm, you know, maybe we can do the—"

"Are you sure?" Taese questioned made Ivyna to halt. "If nit, we can do this on the other time?"

"No, no..." she shook her head. "If we do this early, we'll end this early, too. So..." she sighed. "Let's do this."

They're stared at each other in about two minutes. Before Taese widened the door and gestured her to enter. Once Ivyna entered the room and Taese closed the door, they could feel the awkwardness, nervousness and fear of eachh other.

Ivyna sat down and looked at Tases who's standing.

"How... how we start this?" she asked.

"Do you... you experience this kind before?" he asked, hesitant.

Ivyna taken aback. Actually, it's her first time. Really her first time was on her dream. Ironic, isn't it?

She shook her head. "N-No."

"Really?"

"Why asking?! Let's just do this to end this!"

Taese could see how she nervous at the situation. She tried to be brave but Taese could tell that's she's just acting.

"Don't worry," he paused when Ivyna looked at him. "I'll be gentle."

Ivyna gulped seeing the tiny smile on his lips. Her system immediately felt the running electics when Taese stood infront of him and without any second, he unwore his only clothe.

"Let's start this."
