This is a bit shorter than usual, I'm sorry for that. Because I'm having an issue with my keyboard, I'll try to sort it out ASAP.

Thank you for hanging with me!
Means a lot!

ARYA KANNA

Yesterday was kind of a weird day, can't say totally but after my shift at the cafe. I was so nervous when that stalker made his way towards me like he was mad at me or something like that. Then, thank god he went to Alexa just to flirt with her. And to my surprise, she asked for his number and he gave her without hesitating. First of all who'd ask a number to a stranger definitely not me. Guys, the world around me was moving faster than I speak English.

I saw Kamala helping Adithya with the riding cycle, which stirred me into my flashback. I was trying to pedal with balance each time I try to keep up but at some point, I just touch the ground with my foot, and mom behind me who's holding my cycle on the other hand always motivated me, "Yes, just like that Kanna. Yes, good sweety." Ah, I miss her. I want to talk to her.

I took out my phone, once I was alone in my room I dialed Ashwin. First, he didn't attend my call then he attends on the fifth ring, too long to attend the calls. "Hey, how are ya?"

"Fine, how's Akash?" he asked. How lovely, he cares about his sister soo much. I cursed him for that.

"Fine. Can I talk to mom? I think I kind of homesick."

He waited for a minute before saying something.

"Sure, but first I've to be at home to give my phone to her. Don't you know I'm now at work? For god's sake don't forget that you're now on another side of the world." He yelled at me. Being a younger sister sucks. "I'll call you back when I'm home."

"Why don't you just buy her a new phone already," I yelled back, and with that, he hung up the call. Ugh!

Then a few minutes later, I sat on the couch in the living room and Kamala was watching the master chef Australia on tv.

"Arya, your uncle got four days off from work. We are planning a little trip." Kamala said decreasing the tv volume so the conversation we are about to have a big deal.

"A trip?" I turned my head just to see her eyes on the tv.

"Yeah, I'm here, you to join us." now her eyes in mine. "You just have to take two days off and balance two days weekends."

"No, Kamala I can't and I don't even know whom to ask notes if I was absent. No, no, no, I can't you go and have fun. I can sit your home." I told her.

"I can't tell your mom that we went trip while Arya went to college. Do you think I'll do that? No way! Ready, coming Thursday. And that's the final."

I just nodded.

She was worse than Ashwin. I saw her for one last time before leaving to my room and forced a smile on my face and gone from there like, pfft.

MAX MILLER

I woke up next to Alexa. Shit. How?

All I could remember was the last day I walked out of the cafe furious, without any backward glances. And I was supposed to go to Chole's place, shit. Shit, shit, shit.

I rubbed my eyes and found myself in SHIT. And if I wasn't in my place then where am I?
