After Anne finishes her business law paper, she decided to go to the cafeteria to buy food as her mother did not cook for lunch. Her parents got an appointment to do a medical check-up and they will eat outside for sure. Her parents might be coming home late at night to boot. 'Dating maybe,' She thought. She does not care. She knew they also need time to date only the two of them after having and taking care of 5 children till now. But when she thinks about dinner...
"What to cook for dinner eh? I don't wanna eat rice. So... 2 boil eggs for dinner? Sounds good" She does not want to eat much as she is on diet. While walking, she keeps thinking about what to eat even she has already planned it. She might change or add something to the menu as two boil eggs are not enough for her. "Change the plan. It's not enough for dinner. But I'm on my diet. But... I only live once. But... but..." She proceeds while walking.
She goes to the cafeteria by treading as it only takes 5 to 10 minutes from the exam hall and let her car in the parking lot. She arrives not long after and decided to add one more food for dinner which is two toasted bread as well as looking at the menu for lunch. There are Nasi Goreng Kampung, Seafood Fried Rice, Pattaya Fried Rice, Tom yum Fried Rice and Chicken Fried Rice for lunch. She chooses Nasi Goreng Kampung after 5 minutes of thinking about the one she wants the most. Too many options that she could not pick instantly after looking at the menu. She leisurely apprises the waitress then sits on a chair nearby.
Her peepers ramble around looking for something interesting. Starting from the vases of different colours of roses near the footpath, she unconsciously shows a lopsided grin as the white, black, red, and orange roses are mesmerizing. "It's unique. How does the owner take care of them? They aren't withered. Look fresh" She says while staring at them for a few minutes. Her peepers then move upfront the vase, a plant in a rectangle shape about 90 centimetres on each side called Bougainvillea. "So beautiful. So many colours. I like them. It's... nice" She stares at them for quite some time before turning with smiley eyes thought they are more plants around but Raja and Farah are abruptly pacing in the view. Her eyes now are gazing at them. Longing.
Unfortunately, they did not see her. If they did, things would not change the way they used to be. "It's okay, seeing them from afar makes me happy. At least, they're still together. Stick like glue" She whispers merely staring at them. She displays a delighted grin as she reminisces their finest memories. "Hope they're doing good. I miss them so bad. Wanna talk to them. What to do eh?" She wonders.
"Ha! Present! I should give them their fav things then. Hope they will like it and talk to me. Hehe," She mumbles while grinning from ear to ear. Her stomach grumbles as she waits for her food. "Anne! Your Nasi Goreng Kampung is done!" The waitress calls her name. "Oh! My nasi goreng kampung is done already? Good timing. My stomach whimpered just now" She mumbles and immediately treads to the counter and pays for the food. "Thank you," She says and smile to the cashier.

After she eats dinner while watching Thailand drama in the living room, she paces upstairs, leisurely go to her room and lay on her bed spacing out thinking about the person who camouflage as her. Why would that person do it? Why me? You did dirty to me. But why did it occurs to my best friends? You can do it directly to me though. Wait! Or might be people that I'm close did this to me? She thought. The fan sound company her cloud of thoughts as the surrounding is quiet. It is peaceful and miserable at the same time. Seriously she connects the possible dots all she could then hugs her pillow while recalling what had occurred these past weeks.
"The thing is what's with the mysterious student, the tricky man who masked as Yuki and the one who masked as me? Hmm..."
"I don't know how the mysterious student know me but... it sent me chills spesh when he mentioned coward and vulnerable kid. Yeah, I was. When I was 5 to 12 years old. Is he a spy? Or maybe he's my old friend in the kindergarten? I barely know anyone though"
