Sat around following Angel’s Eviction, the housemates engaged in some mind-numbing smalltalk. Except for Sree, who suddenly took a great interest in Halfwit, bombarding him with questions about his background and education.
When Halfwit went off to the loo, the other housemates couldn’t resist asking Sree what was the catalyst for this sudden interest, when only a few hours ago Sree had been shouting at him about garlic and telling Halfwit to stop “eating his brain”.
“You’re speaking more to him now than you ever have,” Marcus told Sree.
Noirin giggled. “I know,” she sniggered.
“Let’s talk about garlic,” joked Siavash.
Noirin leaned in to Sree. “So, before the Eviction you didn’t want to know him, but now you do?”
“No, it’s not about that,” said Sree shaking his head. “I don’t know anything about that.”
“You can’t do that,” warned Noirin.
“I’m just interested,” continued Sree.
But Marcus had a different theory. “You want to be friends with everyone now there’s two months left.”
“It’s not about that,” repeated Sree.
“You want to keep friends with everyone,” said Marcus, who by now was staring at something on the floor.
“It’s not, all of a sudden, he’s my friend,” continued Sree.
“It does seem an awful lot like that though,” answered Marcus.
“You are seeing it the wrong way,” said Sree.
“Sree, are you talking to him because he’s not gone out of the House?” asked Lisa. “It’s only because of who he’s been up against. It doesn’t make him a superstar. It doesn’t mean he’s going to win.”
By now Kris was having a giggle at Sree with Noirin, Siavash and Marcus. Sree couldn’t hide his smirk either.
“Oh Sree,” teased Noirin.
