Caught Between Two Lovers

"We spin this bottle, and the mouth of the bottle points to whoever is challenged. How about it? Truth or dare!!!" Emma challenged, pointing at the edge of an empty bottle of beer that she had just finished.

Her four friends looked at each other, then Emma winked at Keyara, asking for her permission. Today was Keyara's day. She was celebrating her first acceptance into her dream company, Gametopya Inc., a game design company that was currently popular for its latest game, Triangle Love.

Keyara had applied for the job for a long time and had even been rejected twice before. However, she never gave up and remained determined to be accepted into the gaming company. Her hard work and perseverance paid off, and on her third interview, she finally landed the job she wanted.

Therefore, to celebrate Keyara's success in being accepted into her dream company, her close friends from high school went to a club on Thursday night, which was also Ladies' Night. They intended to celebrate.

The five friends, Emma, Chan, Amba, Rose, and Keyara, dressed up in their finest clothes and took a special table for the five of them.

At first, they looked around at the visitors, then gossiping, until an idea arose to play truth or dare. Of course, the target was the almost empty bottle of drinks next to Emma.

"Spin! Spin! Spin!" the others shouted as Emma held the bottle and prepared to spin it on the table.

The bottle spun and spun, and the five women around the table seemed to be nervous. This game always created strange and unusual excitement. They were always faced with challenges.

The longer the bottle spun, the slower it got. Then, in a matter of seconds, the bottle stopped, and the mouth of the bottle pointed at Keyara.

Her four friends immediately cheered as they saw the end of the bottle stop right in front of Keyara.

"Yuuuuhuuuu!!! Keyara is next, this is going to be exciting!!" Rose yelled while raising her hands. The advantage of being in a nightclub was that, even if they shouted, their voices would be drowned out by the pounding music.

Keyara scratched her cheek, which was not itchy. "I'm next..." she replied with a grin.

"Truth or dare?" Emma asked Keyara while placing her finger on the bottle.

"Dare!!! Dare!!" her friends cheered, encouraging Keyara's choice.

Keyara laughed softly. If she wanted to play it safe, it would be better for her to choose the truth.

However, if she chose that, her four friends would not accept it because they already knew all of Keyara's secrets.

These five friends always confided in each other during their heart-to-heart talks whenever they met. So, what other secrets could there be? Besides, the truth or dare game was always more exciting when taking on a challenge, right?

"Dare," Keyara answered, greeted with loud cheers from her four friends.

"What should we dare Key to do?" Chan immediately started looking for a challenge.

"It has to be exciting. Don't dare her to drink because she'll be driving, right?" Rose reminded her friends, fearing that many drinking challenges would be proposed, considering that they had come to the nightclub using Keyara's car.

"I have the most exciting challenge in mind!" Emma replied while showing off her sweet smile.

Gulp! Keyara swallowed her saliva. Emma's challenges were always strange. Back then, when they played truth or dare at school, Keyara's challenge was to confess to the most awkward boy in the class. It was truly a terrifying challenge. A truly terrifying challenge.

After she confessed her feelings to the nerdy guy in class in front of their classmates, Keyara's crush fled and couldn't be caught by Keyara anymore.

"Don't do anything weird again, just a normal challenge is fine..." Keyara tried to negotiate.

"No, that's invalid. A challenge must be the most difficult, thrilling, nerve-wracking, and have value when completed, right Em?" Amba, who was usually the quietest, was now provoking.

Hearing Amba's words, Emma nodded in agreement. The other three friends started banging on the table and shouting, "Keyara! Keyara!" With all this encouragement, Keyara felt like she had to do it, it wouldn't be fair to let her friends down who were already excited to see what she would do.

"Okay, tell me the challenge," Keyara replied with a challenging tone.

"Great!" Rose immediately gave Keyara a thumbs up. Back to the game! Emma raised her hand, asking her friends to be quiet, and then when her four friends were listening, Emma spoke,

"I've been looking around for a while, now, look at five o'clock," Emma said while pointing with her thumb. Immediately, her four friends looked at five o'clock as instructed by Emma.

"Uh, which one?" Rose, who was the most clueless among them, raised her head higher to look around.

Keyara, who was more alert, spotted a man sitting alone at the bar with his back turned to them. It was very easy to spot him because there was no one else around him.

"Are you talking about the guy who's sitting alone?" Keyara asked.

"Exactly!" Emma snapped her fingers. Amba, Rose, and Chan also looked in the direction Keyara pointed to.

"You can't see his face," Chan said.

"That's the fun part, it won't be exciting if we know what he looks like," Emma replied.

"So, what do I have to do?" Keyara asked with a furrowed brow.

"Well, Key, you have to kiss that guy. Not just any kiss, but a deep, wet, and hot kiss!"

"What!?"

"Yes, of course. A brief kiss won't be exciting, the challenge won't be thrilling enough, don't you all agree?" Emma asked her three other friends, who immediately nodded in agreement.

Keyara sighed, feeling silly, but this was the game she had agreed to play.

So, with bravery, she stood up and walked towards the man. About kissing.

Keyara wasn't sure if she could do it well because she had only kissed two guys in high school, so her experience with kissing was very bad.

She didn't know if she could give that guy a hot and passionate kiss, or just the worst kiss of her rusty experience.

Keyara approached the man's table. Her mind tried to focus on two words, do it and forget it! The man she approached seemed to be lost in his drink, facing away from her.

Keyara took a deep breath, then tapped the man's shoulder.

The man who had his back to her turned around, and when Keyara saw his face, she held her breath and almost fell. He had a handsome face, but his eyes looked scary.

He raised his eyebrows, "What?" he asked sternly. Keyara held her breath and repeated her suggestion, do it and forget it!

So, without hesitation, Keyara immediately grabbed the man's cheek, pulling it until his face leaned towards Keyara, and then with a courage that appeared out of nowhere, Keyara immediately attached her lips to the man's.

Keyara's brain gave an order, it couldn't be just an ordinary kiss, it had to be a deep, wet, and hot kiss, but Keyara didn't know how to do a hot, wet, and deep kiss.

Suddenly, the man in front of her pulled Keyara's waist with his left hand and his other hand touched Keyara's neck, and then Keyara felt the man open his mouth and put his tongue into Keyara's mouth.
