Red for the mind

Greg dice's landed on the highest score and another silver token moved six cell further, on a red one.

"Oh, a red card, there is less of those than the other, I hope it's better..." He said.

"Let me read it, let me read it !" Nath shouted, grabbing a red card.

"Strength of the winner does not lie in it's muscles... Do you continue or chicken out ?" She read with a candid smile.

Greg frowned, wondering the meaning of the sentence.

"I continue." He said.

And as the card Nath was holding burned, Greg's fears and doubts became less and less significant. He was suddenly overwhelmed with confidence. He grabbed the dice before Josie could and gave it to Amanda.

"I always found you cute and smart, I would love to go on a date with you. What do you think ?" He told her.

Amanda turned red and opened her eyes wide. She didn't say anything coherent at first, mumbling and stuttering.

"Yes... maybe... let me, uh, think about it..." She finaly managed to say.

"No problem, take your time, I'll wait for your answer." Greg told her confidently.

Still red as a tomato, Amanda threw the dice.
