Lost in her thoughts, Alice drifted through the party, her movements mechanical as she navigated through the sea of revellers. Everywhere she looked, she saw flashes of laughter and smiles, but beneath the surface, there was an undercurrent of tension that she couldn't ignore.

As she made her way to the edge of the room, her attention was caught along with others by Ash voice who announced,

"Beautiful Ladies and Handsome Gentlemen, may I have your pretty eyes on me, thanks for coming here, until now you must have eaten and dance a lot but now it's time for doing something fun, let's play a game 'Slandering You'", where you reveal the darkest and deepest secret of your friends but remember it just fun, now the main question arise, how to play it? So you all will be handed 8 blank papers as there are going to be 8 rounds and at every round you have to reveal one of your friend's secret and don't worry names are not going to be announced, as the papers will be shuffled and it would be anonymous writer and if you wish you can hand over blank paper, so let the game begin......"

Ash announced while the papers were handed out but Alice thinking of it as some dumb game proceed leave the party along along with her friends only to stop by Ash "Leaving so soon birdy? The fun just began" he said it with a fun yet a desperate tone of not going to see her again

Alice not trying to create a scene :

"Oh Ash, you see I don't have time for this dumb games as I am busy, don't want to involve in the 'Dirty Little Secret Game' but wait, Ash ain't your Dirty Little Secret known by anyone"

She said it politely with a sarcasm causing Ash to boil in anger he closed and open his palm again and again to calm himself down

"Don't worry about me, worry about yourself, as I know you can do anything for your PRIDE" said Ash with a mysterious tone

"That doesn't make any sense" said Liz

"It will" replied Ash with confident

"C'mon Tyche, let's play it and prove him it's just a delusion of his sick head" said Emily

"Yeah, let's do it" everyone agreed with her

"Let's show this jerk his anticipation is wrong" added Lily gaining a frown from Ash and a little "What?"

"So here's the blank paper for your Birdy along with a pen" said Ash while offering her

"I'll take the papers but not the pen as I don't believe you, who knows there could be some sort of camera" said Alice while checking the pen

Ash chuckle darkly "Fine my lady, go use your own pen"

Alice went by passing Ash followed by other girls while Ash just stand there as mumbling to himself "You just made my work easier dear"

After that everyone went inside and settle near the table

"So shall we begin"

The game went fine for next 3 rounds until Ash spoke, "Miss know it all, I see no slander from you or for you, why? Perhaps Miss know it all know nothing" said Ash in a mocking tone gaining a boo from his friends and the girls who despised her

Making Alice face turn red due to anger and forcing her to speak out of pride and ego, "Oh don't you worry Mr. Smooth Talker, I have the best slanders among them which I don't want to reveal"

"Cause you don't have the guts"

"Cause I have respect for privacy"

"Yeah whatever"

With this the game begin but this time the slanders were all shocking
