Bunny emerged from the room with a wide grin, clearly pleased with our entries.

“Now the entries will be displayed and rated,” Bunny announced loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, five boxes appeared on the ceiling.

Bunny continues, "The highest-rated entry was 'The psychiatrist dated two people at once' I wanna hear the whole story-

Surprised gasps erupted from everyone except Deva, who already knew this. It seemed everyone but Deva was too stunned to speak.

-The second most-rated entry is 'Mahin had a crush on the psychiatrist' -

Again more gasps of surprise

Mahin had shared this with me before, after she moved past her feelings for me and saw me more as a friend than a romantic interest.

-The third most-rated entry is 'Deva hates the psychiatrist's taste in lovers'-

Was the topic love or something?? Or did we three share the same braincell.

-the fourth most-rated entry is 'Maria buys clothes from men's section'

Reasonable considering how tall she is and how cheap the clothes actually are.

-the fifth most-rated entry is 'once Safa didn't bathe for a week'. Oh my quite stinky" bunny finishes.

Safa's face turns red at Bunny’s comment. The ceiling now displays all the entries along with their rankings.

We all move to our respective places on the game board.

“Now, why don’t we hear the double love story from Miss Psychiatrist before the next round?” Bunny says with a grin.

If you come across this story on Amazon, it's taken without permission from the author. Report it.

Is this his plan to paint me as a scum so he can disrupt our friendships? Too bad for him I technically didn't cheat.

I face everyone before speaking. "I didn’t actually cheat, but here’s what happened: When I was 15, I was in a long-distance relationship. After over a year together, I was suddenly ghosted. An year later, I started dating someone else online, which is how it seemed like I was dating two people. However, a few months into my new relationship, I received a message from my previous partner saying lets break up."

"You dated when you were 15???, and you didn't tell us?" Safa questions me

"Ehh...I did tell Mahin and Deva, but I just couldn't find the right moment to tell you and Maria," I reply, internally scolding myself for not mentioning my first relationship 12 years ago.

"I don't mind that you kept this a secret" Maria says in a casual tone.

"Boringgg let's move on to the next round " Bunny announces in a disappointing tone.

The next five rounds went well, my current placement is on the 30th square. I had to share some embarrassing stuff but I consider them worth it. So far Mahin, Maria and Deva climbed down snakes once already. Safa still hasn't climbed down one yet.

The game is going well but I am dreading the next round; I have no idea what to write. Maybe I should ask Deva to write an entry for me in exchange for writing one for her.

I call out to Deva "next round write the entry about me, I will write about you."

Deva gives me a thumbs up

"What number of steps do you need ?" I ask her

"Any number is fine" she replies.

I guess saying something small about her should do the trick. I go first to write my entry.

Once the entries were being ranked, I regretted letting Deva write an entry for me.

"Ohhh the most-rated entry is that the psychiatrist favourite book genre is boys love" Bunny announces very loudly.

My ears turn red once he finishes the sentence. Well I wrote something embarrassing about her too anyways.

"The second most-rated entry is that Deva learnt flirting from the psychiatrist" Bunny announces and starts laughing at the end.

I see that Deva's ears are red as well now.

"The third most rated entry is that Safa is actually married but most don't know it"

Huh, what now? How is everyone is so calm about it

Did they all know already?

" The fourth most rated entry is that Mahin is legally blind"

Her vision isn't that bad as per what I know. Maybe Safa and Mahin ran out of secrets so they made up lies?

"the fifth most-rated entry is that Maria has a degree in chemistry"

Huh this is also new to me.

I try to speak to Deva about the entries, but she just shrugs it off.

This round leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.
