7 AM Next day

An awake Marissa is already dressed and putting her makeup on.
With the alarm sound of Sunny, Faye's dog,barking,Faye wakes up.

Marissa "Good morning sunshine"

Faye "Morning"

A naked Faye gets out of the bed,walks over to the bathroom for a quick shower. She then put on the robe placed by Marissa.

Marissa "I called room service. Breakfast should be coming soon"

Faye "Good. I'm starving"

A bit later room service brought in a cart full of food. Both proceed to seat down to eat. Just as they are about to finish the eating, Marissa reach out to hold Faye's hand, but Faye drew back.

Marissa "I was thinking of dropping by your studio after my shoot. Then we can have the evening together"

Faye "About that..." "I was thinking... maybe it's time we cool it off a bit"

Marissa "Oh!" "I get it"

Faye "You are a wonderful girl, I'm sure there are others..."

Marissa "We had fun,did we?"

Faye "Indeed we did" "I'm sorry"

Marissa "That's alright, I'm a big girl"
She takes out a pair of keys.

Marissa "Here's the keys to the penthouse" "I will go to get my stuff tomorrow"

Faye"That's fine, I'll tell the security to let you in"

Marissa "I will see you when I see you"
"Good Bye,Faye Peraya"
She kiss Faye on the cheek and picks up her belongings to walk out of the hotel suite.
When the door closed on her she let out a drop of tear.
Marissa put on her sunglasses walks out of the hotel.

8 AM Same day

In a high end hotel Yoko casually enjoy her breakfast. She reads the map thoroughly.Then she grabbed her bag and a bottle of water as she happily venture into the city...
Unaware that Taro and Hitomi just landed at the Bangkok airport.

Taro "I hope you are right, that miss Yoko is in this city. Or we will lose a finger or two when madam gets thru with us." "Remember Mari?"

Hitomi "How could I forget." "She lost miss Yoko in Disneyland that day and even though miss Yoko is found Mari still lost a finger." "Now she's reduced to washing dishes for life"

Taro "We don't have much time, madam give us 3 days or we will join Mari"

Hitomi "I  know"

Taro and Hitomi venture into the city searching for their master.

In a sound studio in the middle of the city

Hannah and Faye do a high five
They are happy because Faye finally finished recording the last track of her upcoming album

Hannah "How should we celebrate this?" "At your usual place? At No Limits?" "Is Ma..."

Faye cuts Hannah off

Faye "She's won't be coming anymore"

Hannah "Oh. I see"

Hannah understood. After a month and some days,Faye's policy kicked in. The monthly lover policy where Faye would  start a love affair with a woman and end it at the end of a month. Though Hannah hope that Faye do not do this anymore, but she respects Faye's choices.

Faye "I have been cooped up indoors all day" "I need some fresh air"

Hannah "Oh, almost forgot. Sunny is here." "The chauffeur brought him here. He's in the office"

Faye "I miss my little guy" "Haven't seen him in 2 days"
She goes to the office to be greeted by her dog. The dog keeps licking Faye's cheeks.
Faye "How is my little guy. I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"
Putting Sunny on a harness and leash and taking his water bottle

Faye "I'm going to take Sunny for a walk. Be back in a bit"

Hannah "Don't forget about the gathering at No Limits."

Faye "Got it"
Faye walks out of the studio with Sunny. As she steps out she is being photographed by the paparazzi. Sunny barks at the paparazzi. The paparazzi back off. Faye continue to walk the dog.

Some time later...

A street vendor selling skewers is selling skewers at the outer edge of the studio. A curious Yoko stopped by the smell of the food. She decided to buy a few pieces of the skewers.
A now hungry Sunny and a tired Faye is returning back to the studio.
Attracted by the smell Sunny eagers to run to the vendor but is stopped by Faye. Then a few fans came up to Faye for pictures, which Faye happily obliged.
Then Yoko walked past Faye and Sunny, prompted Sunny to make a dash for the meat skewers. Sunny jump up to reach the food and knocked Yoko off balance causing her to fall on the ground.

Faye "Sunny STOP!"
Faye was too late
Sunny made the steal successfully, now with the food in his mouth.

Yoko "OUCH!"
THUMP!
Yoko's fall gave her a big scrape on her knees. The knees both start to bleed.

Faye "Miss are you alright? I'm so sorry. Sunny's never like this" "I'm so sorry,I'll make it up to you for sure."

Faye turned to Sunny "Sunny bad dog!"
Then back at Yoko "What is your name?" "My name is Faye Peraya"

Yoko"Yoko Yamaguchi"

They shake hands.

Faye "Miss Yamaguchi"

Yoko "Please Yoko"

Faye "Can you get up? Can you walk?"
Faye looks at the now bloody knees.

Yoko tried to get up but she is too hurt to move.

Yoko" I can't! It hurts so much!"

Faye looks at the surroundings. They are at the outer wall of her studio.

Faye "You know what. This is my studio. I'll take you there for some first aid." Faye picks Yoko up,carries her bridal style,walks into the studio. Yoko,now being carried by Faye ,now looks at the handsome woman carrying her,and takes in the fragrant smell of Faye. For a brief moment, Yoko gotten lost in Faye's arms,forgetting the fact that she just got injured and savoring in her embrace.

The paparazzi snaps multiple pictures from a distance.

Paparazzi "Another woman? That was fast" "No more Marissa?" "Gotcha Faye Peraya!"
