"Good morning," Phuwin greeted half-awaken Pond who was climbing down the white marble stairs and towards him at the kitchen. "You're making breakfast for us today?" Pond asked, ruffling his short black hair which Phuwin always wanted to touch and comb through. "Ahuh, just some simple chicken porridge for the morning," Phuwin said, cooking the minced chicken and mixed with bigger chunks of chicken, spices and sauce to enrich its flavour. "Will never get tired of your cooking," Pond spoke softly to Phuwin. It made the younger melt internally as the smile on his face couldn't be washed off. "I'll help settle the dishes and plates," Pond suggested, washing and rinsing bowls and utensils. "Thanks, no one here is a morning person huh," Phuwin chuckles, allowing the food to cool down as he switches off the gas and awaits for the porridge in the rice cooker to be done. "No one but you," Pond jokes back.

"What a sweet scene for a morning," Phuwin turns to see Dunk standing by the kitchen entrance with his oversized red tee and black shorts. "Good morning to you too," Phuwin greets him. "The chicken smells amazing, Phu." Dunk compliments Phuwin as he walks to the television, checking out what was on. "Oh dude, I didn't realise how fast the project has gone..." Phuwin hears Dunk's comment. Excusing himself from the kitchen, he walked over to see the plot of land that was going to be used for the construction of the hotel on the news. "Your families are quick," Phuwin commented. "For real...I thought my dad would take some time off to recover and feel better but he jumped right back in into the project,"

"Our dad informed him to not to work until he felt better but he insisted on his project to move on," Pond joined their conversation. "Try this, just fried some kankong and sambal I found in the fridge," Pond diverts his attention to Phuwin who was standing next to him as they stood behind the large white sofa. He had a fork with some vegetable and was prepared to feed Phuwin. The male was taken aback by this action but leaned in to take a bite out of it. "Hmm! It's amazing!" Phuwin gasped out of satisfaction. "You're one great cook! Now they don't just have to eat plain porridge with chicken," Phuwin chuckles, walking back to the kitchen as he hears the familiar music coming from the rice cooker, a sign that it was done.

"Wow, smooth," Dunk comments on Pond's action. "At least I gave him some sort of sign that I treat him way more special," Pond rolls his eyes. "Hey, I didn't say anything," Dunk whistles off, his eyes stuck on the television screen. Pond walked off with a huff, tired to deal with Phuwin's best friend. He enters the kitchen where he spots a cheery Phuwin separating porridge into individual bowls for the boys. He also plated same amount of chicken into each of their bowls and placed them in a wooden tray. Pond smiled at the sight. It was warm and welcoming, sweet and comforting. "Here, let me help," Pond reached out for the tray when he noticed that the younger was about to bring it out. "Thanks!" Phuwin smiled and went back to separating the dishes. "Actually, are you able to help me transfer them to the dining table? I'll go wake the boys up," Phuwin asked. "Oh ya, sure." Pond nods, looking as Phuwin climbed up the stairs to wake the others up.

"Ahem." Pond jumped and turned to see Meen behind him. "What." Pond sighed, rubbing his chest. "The male you captured last night has escaped..." Pond's eyes widened. "What do you mean?" "There's a rat among us," Meen continues. "The guard who was taking care of that area let him go but there is evidence that he was communicating to someone else within this house," Pond's awareness heightened. He looked at Dunk who was chilling at the sofa, looked up where he sees Gemini and Fourth who had just woken up. He knew it could be anyone.

Phuwin looked around. Everyone was oddly quiet and not saying anything. The tension was too scary for Phuwin to speak up, hence he just continued eating. "That man escaped. And he has an ally among us or this house," Pond spoke up. Phuwin frowned immediately, looking at Pond with disbelief. "I'm not saying that I don't trust any of us here but it's hard to right now," Pond continues, making eye contact with Phuwin. The male shudders, looking back at his empty bowl. "Do we know where he could have gone to?" Joong asked. "Hard to, the CCTVs were cut off perfectly and came back on when he was far gone," Meen joined the conversation. "It must be a man who knows the skill of hacking and also the authority of our security branch," Joong mumbles. Phuwin took a sigh of relief, he knows that everyone knew he was terrible at them. "But, there's one more. The man who orchestrated everything," Pond said. "I'll be watching out for all of you," He continues, getting up to wash his bowl before heading up to his study room.

"Does he think it's us?" Gemini asked the two other boys who sighed. "I sincerely hope not, all of us were way to loyal and committed to them to have done such things," "And Phuwin, he went so far to catching them," Dunk groans. "Let's just use our upcoming missions as prove that it isn't us," Gemini said, leaving the house with his tools, followed by Dunk and Phuwin. "It's so scary how alert everyone is," Dunk said, shivering at how all the security guards we eyeing them. "Let's just get out of here and settle the business," Phuwin pushes them into the car, driving off to their next mission.

"Good job on capturing him back, I'm proud of you," The male spoke, thick smoke coming out of his mouth as he rubs the bud of the cigarette on his tray. "It would be harder to continue my mission, they are on high alert and kept questioning everyone," "Ping. I believe and trust you," The man said, resting his arms on Ping's shoulder. "Get back in there and be my ears," He commanded the taller male who nods, rushing out of the alcohol smelling room and into his car. He looked at his mirror, removing the glass itself to find a thumb drive. Smirking, he drove off, knowing how his plan is going well.
