Max POV

It was a nice afternoon when I decided to go to a nice noodle restaurant. Right now I am taking a break from my invention that I am incredibly excited to finish.

"Order?" Someone asked.

That was Skylor, a chick that Kai was dating. She's not bad I mean, I wonder how she gets on with a hot head arrogant ninja. But at least she has Kai's sister to protect her from Kai's impatient or risky nature.

"Salmon Chicken noodles? That's a new thing?" I was puzzled as there was something new on the menu or that I was just blind.

"Yes. Well, it's a new noodle we are trying, so far no one ordered it yet." She smiled as the text came up on my phone. It was Kai and Lloyd talking to me about me.

"Sure, I'll try some." I tried to hide the close the phone quickly but it looks like she has already seen the text. 'Will she tell anyone?'

"You're Max right?"

I didn't answer, I don't normally get this nervous.

"What makes you think that?" I answered as she sat down opposite me.

"Nothing, just that I saw a text from Kai on your phone about Max, as well as Lloyd. And it looks like you hid it as soon as the text same out"

She noticed me just looking at my phone.

"I won't tell anyone, just surprised that a hacker came to visit my noodle shop."

"Well, at least your noodle shop gets a visit from a hacker then." I joked.

"Anyways, your noodle is the new one, yes?"

I nodded, she went off to the counter.

I waited for a while, thinking if I should ever reveal myself or just be anonymous.

"Seems you are a kind patient person, unlike your persona in online chat." Skylor came back with the food a few minutes after.

"I mean, this is just me." I was surprised, this was the first time someone said kind words to me. Perhaps ninjas are different after all.

"You know, Ninjas are also different as well if you get to know them. Anyways here's your food." Skylor spoke as she placed my food in front of me.

"So when are you comfortable of revealing yourself to the Ninjas then?"

"Time will tell."  I nodded in thanks and went on with my food.

Something felt off, I don't know which...

Was it something my friend, Ben, told me?

End of Diary. Bye.
