Recap: Nithya is searching for lost memories of her past, mainly to remember Bhairavi. Akilan and Emma are now going out. So far Emma, Kathir and Felix know about this. Emma and Nithya found Bhairavi's possessions in the loft.

Sandra walked in to the room leading a rather anxious looking man.

"Hi everyone, this is Gareth. He's our client's supervisor for this project."

We approached him one by one to shake his hand while the forty-year old mumbled and grumbled under his breath.

SERIOUSLY COULDN'T YOU BE A BIT MORE POLITE!

Felix eyed me and I realised that I was making a very annoyed expression.

WHY DO I HAVE TO BE SO EXPRESSIVE!

Then he whispered,
"Don't worry Nithya, I totally agree with you. Maybe a bed bug bit him."

I giggled earning a glare from Gareth.

GREAT START NITHYA.

Ed stayed as polite and friendly as ever.

Gareth cleared his throat.
"Enough with timewasting. I'm going to allocate your assignments to you."

We all went silent and he allocates the modelling application to Felix and I.

YAY I GET PRETTY BOY :)

SHUT UP NITHYA.

"Are you having an internal war or something." Kathir asked.

"Huh? Um no?" I replied perplexed that he may be telepathic.

...

Gareth lead us to a lab and said he needed to assess our skills.

I DIDN'T KNOW WE WOULD HAVE COURSEWORK AT WORK.

"Why are we being assessed?" Felix asked almost in a challenging way.

"How dare you question me!" Gareth boomed. It was so scary like he was getting prepped up to scared an adult in a nightmare.

SERIOUSLY HE NEEDS TO CONTROL HIS ANGER.

I found myself looking Felix and catching Kathir looking at us through the window with panic etched in his face.

"Don't you ever question me again."

Felix remained silent, confusion written on his face.

Gareth thrust a stack of sheets in front of us and huffed his way out of the room.

The sheets said that the task started tomorrow and that today was the preliminary session.

"Feels like an assessed practical right?"

Felix awoke from his daydream slumber.

"Yeah. Though I don't think I've ever had a teacher as hotheaded as him."

"I agree though you never know he could come in anytime now."

WAY TO KILL THE CONVERSATION NITHYA.

"Oh well. How are things going with you Nithya?"

I sighed.

"To be honest, I am still confused. I found myself answering questions with knowledge that I never knew I had."

"Nithya, you must be remembering things then. That's a good sign right?" he asked, a small smile forming on his face.

"What was it about?"
