In Time...

Chapter 6: Pretend

Jae: Pretend you didn't saw them.

"Just pretend that you didn't saw them.."

"Just pretend that you didn't saw them.."

"Just pretend that you didn't saw them.."

Vaughn looked at Jae.

He wasn't sure why Jae keeps on telling this to his mind.

Vaughn continually walked and still those words are echoing in his thoughts and his mind.

Vaughn: does she want me to pretend that I didn't see some unusual figures?!

Jae was now loading the grocery bags at the back of her car.

When Vaughn keep on walking to and fro and Facing Jae

Vaughn: You saw them right?

Did you saw those two right?

That's why you asked me to pretend right?!

ANSWER ME JAE!!!

Jae keeps on loading their grocery bags.

Vaughn now was so frustrated!

That he released his frustrations in the air by shouting and Punching the air.

Vaughn was stopped when Jae closed the compartment door a little bit strong that creates a loud impact sound.

Vaughn was mortified and just follow Jae through his eyes as she rides on the driver's side and starts the car.

Quickly Vaughn found himself again in the middle of Daisy and Kai.

Jae was driving when Vaughn see again that Jae starting to emit gray smoke.

He quickly flicked his finger

And instantly Kai's music went to the loudspeaker.

Jae checked the dash mirror and looked at Kai.

Jae: Kai! I like that song!

Kai: Open the Bluetooth speaker I'll play it loud.

Jae opens the car's Bluetooth and Kai connects to it. Again Kai plays the song from the start.

Jae likes the beats and rhythm! It lifts her mood.

Vaughn on the other hand slumped his back on the backrest of the car seat,
And closed his eyes.

For now, the gray smoke is not visible anymore.

Jae and Kai have happy vibes now while singing the song playing loud in the car.

Jae went to her room after they finish unloading the grocery bags in the kitchen.

She bid early goodnight to her Mom and sister Kai.

Jae locked up in her room and slumped to bed.

She was just staring at the ceiling.

Vaughn on the other hand sits down on the couch by the window.

And looking at Jae.

No gray smoke

No talking to his mind.

Jae was there silently staring at the ceiling...

For a minute she stayed like that.

Until she moved and scoot to the other side of the bed.

She got down and sit on the floor. She opens the lower cabinet of her bedside table and gets a red pouch.

Vaughn was curious about what now Jae is doing and he also sits down on the floor opposite Jae.
