Kin and Lisa smiled teasingly at Tee who just arrived for work. The intern frowned to receive the teasing as he's just arrived but when he looked at his table, he instantly knew the reason.

It's yet another day of small present appeared on his table. Sometimes, it was a cup of coffee. Sometimes, chocolate. Sometimes, some sweets, snacks or even drinks like milk tea and milkshake. All of it will come with a sticky note written his name and some encouraging words. To be honest, Tee started to feel curious of the person because he felt it's too much of gifts already. And also, his seniors already started to gossip. But no one had caught the secret person yet.

"The person must like you so much." Kin said as Tee sat down. Tee sighed and shrugged. Lisa got up from her desk and walked closer to Tee's desk.

"I'm sure the person is very shy to tell you their feelings for you. Won't you try to find out who, nong?" Lisa said. Tee shrugged again as he took the small bag of cookies from the person, looking at it closely. The same sticky note was there. 'Hope you have a nice day, Tee.' That what was written on it.

"You're going to end the internship next week thou. The person shall know that... right?" Kin said. Tee glanced at him.

"Maybe, I don't know P'. I can't even guess who is this person. The writing... I never see." Tee said. He, Lisa and Kin had tried to figure out by the handwriting but none of them recognized it. Lisa concluded it could be from people in another team or department. They agreed to that even though Kin was sceptical on that, if it's from another department, how can they easily come in and out their department without anyone suspected.

Lucas who went to the pantry earlier came back to his desk and noticed the three were talking at Tee's desk. He walked closer to them and noticed Tee was holding the cookies that he saw on Tee's table earlier. He knew they're talking about that. "You have arrived, nong." The three turned and saw Lucas stood near them. Tee smiled to Lucas.

"Good morning, P'." Lucas greeted him back. Lisa took the sticky note from Tee.

"P'Lucas, I know we have asked before. But do you really have no idea whose handwriting is this?" Lisa asked. Yes, they had asked Lucas previously as Lucas had worked here for sometimes maybe had a little clue to whom this handwriting belong to. Or at least can tell anyone that had similar handwriting. Lucas just looked at Lisa and the sticky note back and forth.

Lucas smiled mildly. "I'm sorry, Lisa. I don't know. It's not that we always see people's handwriting working in this company, right? By far, I would often see the assistants' but these days, we have switched to I-pad, right? So, yeah." Lucas said. Lisa huffed and gave back the sticky note to Tee. Tee just smiled and decided to change the subject.

"Do you want the cookies, Ps? I don't really eat chocolate cookies." Tee said, offering the cookies to his three seniors. Lucas shook his head first.

"Got peanut." Lucas said and tapped Tee's shoulder before walking back to his desk. Kin also declined, giving the chance to Lisa. Lisa thanked Tee and took the cookies with her. They returned to their own desk after that.

Lucas was staring at the screen absentmindedly. He sighed inwardly. 'Why I didn't tell them...?' He lied. Since the first time, he already recognized that handwriting. He knew who is the one placed all those stuffs on Tee's desk. Not only because of the handwriting, he did catch the person one time somehow. It's still a wonder though that no one else managed to catch that person except him. And about the handwriting, maybe among everyone in the team, he would be the only one ever see that handwriting. Lucas closed his eyes for a while pushing away all his thoughts and the uneasiness in his heart.

'Why would he use this way? Why not straight up confront Tee? Is he forgetting that Tee will end his internship soon?' Lucas couldn't help the question in his mind.
