The game has begun and I can’t seem to wait to have those overconfident guys stripping.
As my 1st ball hits hukk’s head I stare holding my hands on my mouth desperate to see it land in a cup…what eventually happens, triggering a joyfull jump «YAY! Now drink up and strip!»
Hukk tries to intimidate us with his serious face «We will break you». To what I respond with «haha! what are you gonna break??? Look at this!» Turning around, showing him my butt and slapping it in provocation.
The game goes on, we all miss and hit. Nothing is decided yet.
After almost an hour, and first afraid of Halie’s condition, I regain confidence at each of her succesful throw. «Damn you’re good Halie!! Gimme five!» until i miss a decisive ball. But there she is again to reassure me «Don’t worry Peeka. I got this!» «Ok, come on! You can do it!» I shout before letting her concentrate for the last throw. I lean back on a table, desperatly trying to keep my balance. And staring at the last cup, some of the cheering public could see my doubtful look as i think «damn is there really only one cup left? I see so many at the moment…She can’t miss» ending with a big «Hiccup!!!»
After Lover missed his last ball, I shout «Don’t shoot the referee! haha!Poor Pachacuti» giving him a small caress on his face. «Snarl, roar, grunt»
So hukk goes for the last cup too. It is close…the ball rattles around the edges but isn’t falling yet. Already in disbelief I shout «NOOOOO!» Staring at this slow motion rolling ball with eyes almost coming out of my orbits. That’s when Halie blows it out the cup. I look at Pachacuti, not knowing what he will decide. This second seems to last for minutes, my heart beats at such a rate…then he points out at Halie and me designing us as the winners. Jumping for joy, I hug Halie, give her a big kiss «You’re a genius Halie!!!» and enjoy our win jumping around and in Pachacuti’s arms. «Snarl, roar, grunt»
«Alright you two, you know what to do…100 push ups!» shouts Halie. To what I add «Mwahah! Yes show us what those muscles are good for!!» I approach lover and Hukk, kneeling before hukk, just before his face and begin to count with the public. «haha, now I know what I came for. Seeing you like this is such a pleasure dear! I love this bar!”
«Mmmmgrrmmbll 34, mmgrr 35… you…36…just won…37…because we…38…were gentlemen enough…39…to let you begin…40″ says hukk trying to keep his breath under control.
To what I answer “Haha of course sweetheart… just keep being gentlemen, that’s how we love you guys!” Tapping their back slowly to encourage them.
