“I'll pay ten thousand per song to anyone among you who can sing or dance better than her!”
The attractive offer made all the girls go crazy instantly. They fought to be the first ones to select songs of their choice.
No thanks to Timothy pulling his stunt, Johanna lost her mood to sing. She landed a kick at Timothy while making her way back to the couch.
Shortly after, she saw that there were poker cards on the table and suggested that they play truth or dare.
“Hey, sing a few ballads. While you're at it, reduce the volume. Otherwise, we can't hear each other over here,” she boldly ordered the girls around.
“Johanna, those are my people. I'm the one who paid them to sing,” retorted Timothy.
“I know, and I'm not going to dispute that fact. You said you'd pay them ten thousand per song, right?” Johanna spread her hands in feigned innocence. “As an audience, am I not allowed to pick songs that I want to hear?”
Timothy was rendered speechless.
Johanna then opened a new deck of cards and excluded the four kings. As she shuffled the deck, she started explaining the rules of the game.
Everyone was supposed to pick a card and reveal it at the same time. The one with the smallest number would lose, whereas the one with the biggest number would win the round. The loser would then have to accept a punishment indicated by the winner.
Afterward, Johanna placed the deck neatly on the table and commenced the game in a clockwise manner.
Timothy was the first to draw a card, followed by Johanna, Jermaine, and the rest.
When Genevieve had completed her turn, the next player remained as still as a statue.
Johanna rested her chin on her palm and teased Armand with a pair of smiling eyes, “Mr. Faulkner, it's just a harmless game. Both truth or dare options won't go too far. Are you scared?”
She took advantage of the situation and poked fun at Timothy. “See, how steady and grounded is your fellow friend. Now, take a look at yourself... Tsk!”
Timothy was at a loss for words.
In the end, Armand decided to participate in the game. He took the top card from the deck and tossed it casually on the table.
It was a deuce, making Timothy the winner of that round.
Armand took a shot of brandy and indicated coldly, “I choose dare.”
“Awesome!” Needless to say, Timothy would not give up on such a great chance to pull a trick on his friend.
He rubbed his palms and instructed, “I want you and Mr. Sutton to each hold a glass and drink from it with your cup-holding arms crossed.”
