Plan

"There he goes Plan who always so excited whenever we are packing up practice" Gun trying to tease me but I only give him a proud face.

"Of Course I am" yes I am bragging Mean so much to them. So even tease won't let my guard down.

Bidding goodbye to the three of them. I head of first straight to usual place where Mean is waiting for me. But this time he wasn't alone. He is with Prae, his best friend.

Guess they finally reconcile. Mean also told me how he was guilty for being so distant to his friend after we get together. He feels guilt because all their life they have each other whatever happen. But now seeing them chit chatting and knowing they are in good terms now. I think I might feel ease right now.

"Hey!" I lean my face to his cheek and peck of it. At first he look startled maybe he was so busy talking with Prae and he didn't notice my approach.

"Plan??!" he try to sound mad but his face went red afterwards. Prae looking at us with confuse look.

"Okay.. okay. I'm so sorry. I am still not getting the fact that you guys are dating. And yeah.. don't mind me here. Go continue" she said then she let a small sneer.

I grin to Mean and he is now shy.

"Uhm Plan can I ask you something?"

"Hmm"

"Can we take Prae home??"

---

"I feel bad if I let you guys just like that after you brought me home" Prae trying to drag us both into her place. "Don't ever try to say "no" to me".

She won as we get inside to her house. We both seated on the couch as we wait for her when she goes off to her room. I roamed my eyes and landed to the pictures that's on table.

"Is that you Mean?" I pointed the picture. He seem so young and I can definitely can identify him.

"Huh?" He lean toward to it and he smiled. He give me a look.

My eyes caught sight of the large photograph hanging on the wall. Family Picture maybe they are. When I looked closely at their faces there. My eyes were drawn to the older man next to Prae.

"I can't ..." I whispered to myself as I couldn't believe what I was seeing. "It just looks like maybe .."

"Plan ?? Are you okay ?? What does it look like ???" Mean seems to be wondering about it. I was still staring at Prae's family picture. Eventually I turned to her.

"Who is he?" when I ask a good question.

"Prae's dad" he just nodded. He try to calm himself.

"Guys let's go to the kitchen" Prae appeared suddenly. Mean touched me and motioned for me to go to the kitchen. I just nodded and said

"All right wait, we will be there" he kissed me quickly on the cheek and he tried to pulled me over with him. But I gave him a signal to wait and I'll come after him. He shrugged as he stormed off to kitchen.

I quickly pulled out my phone to secretly take a picture of Prae's family picture.

My gut feeling is getting serious. Thinking I haven't seen my father for such a long time. I only remember a little details of his face but my brain cant picture it at all.

Is he my father??? Prae was my sister?

"Plan ???" I gasped when I felt Mean shake me.

They were both looking at me. Meanwhile Mean seems to be worried about me.

"Are you not feeling well?" he placed his hand to my forehead

"If you dont feel okay and cant drive back to your home. There's an extra room here, it was my dad's room. You can stay there"

"Prae ..." she bit the pancake before stared at me "Where's your Dad?"

"Dad?? Oh he was out of town. He said he just visited someone on his business trip. Why did you ask?"

"Because I noticed that there's no adult here with you" she smiled slightly.

"Since Mom disappeared, Papa let me be independent. He entrusted me with the house. He practiced me to live alone, at first it was very hard for the both of us. But I also keep insisting him that he can trust me. I don't want to be a huge burden to him. Especially after Mom died. I know he tried to move forward for my sake" I feel bad asking about that to her. She seem so sad while expressing that all to me.

"I'm so sorry"

"Nah .. don't be sorry Plan. Its okay" We just continued to eat but until after that I still didn't lose my mind about her Dad.

---

"I've been noticing you. Earlier you seem so lost yet you looked like also have a lot things in your mind" We arrived to his place. He hasn't come out from the car yet. I felt guilty for acting weird in front of him.

"Mean .." I don't know how to tell him. So I grabbed his face and claimed his lips. He was stunned for a moment after taking off my lips to his mine.

"I'll talk about this time in a right time. Please give me a time" Mean give me a little delighted face.

He started caressed my face and ended up pinching my cheeks.

"I don't know what's going on. But you know I am always here for you right ???" then grabbed my hand and kissed it.

We bid a goodbye. After watching him finally going inside to his place. That was my cue to drive back to my home.

Mean

"What should I do???" it was past late midnight. I can't sleep because I was still bothered to Plan acting sudden strange earlier. Thats why I called Prae at this late hour.

"You know what Mean?? You dont have to overthink things" Prae only told me after I tell everything after we left her at her place.

"He acted weird after he saw our picture in your house" thats the only thing that came to my mind. After he pointed that picture and asked if that was me.

"So what are you trying to say?? That Plan was jealous??"

"Or maybe sulky??" I added..

"You are overthinking things" am I??? But what if I was right???

"Of all the pictures.. why Prae??" I started to complain. I forgot that picture of the two of us existed.

"It was you kissing my cheek on that pic!!"

"Prae!!!!" damn this was so frustrating that I expected.

"Dont get me involved to you guys. I swear Mean" she was deadly serious right now in the other line. "I am going to sleep now. Its already late, we have classes tomorrow." then she hanged up before I could answer back.

Am I just being overthinking?
