Right then the monk walked closer to them and whispered, "Young ladies, please bring forward our eggs,"
Reya panicked. 'What do I do?' she thought and hid behind Jaiye. Haily gripped her hand tightly and winked. 'Don't worry. I'll go first, after which I'll give my egg to you,'
'okay.' Reya agreed readily. There was no other option. This or she had to reveal the truth.
Haily confidently stepped forward and held out her pink egg.
The old monk carefully held the egg and glanced at it all around. "Winner of pink paradise egg. Creature so daring yet so beautiful that it could steal one's heart. Good choice indeed, little one," he whispered softly caressing the egg.
"Thanks, old monk. Hey, I'm curious though. Is there any chick inside?" Haily said cheerfully, hugging her huge egg.
