Orm arrived at school early for her final exam, feeling a bit exhausted from a lack of sleep the night before. As she entered the room, she found her friends casually lounging in a corner.
"What's the plan after the exam?" Yoko began, leaning back in her chair.
"Let's hang out at my place." Becky suggested, glancing at Orm. "Are you coming with us?"
"I don't know."
"Are you okay?" Becky asked, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.
"I'm fine, just feeling a bit anxious about the exam." Orm replied.
Yoko rolled her eyes. "You? Feeling anxious about the exam? I find it hard to believe."
It was true that Orm was usually confident in her academics and well-prepared for exams.
"I'm okay, guys, I swear. Let's focus and be prepared. The professor might be here soon." The blonde one reassured them, though her friends could sense something was bothering her.
Before long, the professor entered the room, signaling the start of the exam. After completing their tests, the girls gathered in the university hallway, waiting for another friend from a different program to join them. Once they were all together, they decided to head to the British girl's place to hang out. Their conversations continued even after arriving, with Prig's playful teasing, Becky's comforting gestures, Yoko's nonchalant reply and Orm's calmness.
In the kitchen, the four girls gathered and shared their skills on cooking their desired dishes. The aroma of the food filled the air, causing Yoko's stomach to growl.
"Orm, I didn't know you were talented in cooking Tom Yum Goong." Yoko remarked, taking in a deep inhale of the soup.
Orm chuckled softly. "Wait until you taste it." Offering her a spoonful and eagerly awaiting her feedback. "How does it taste?"
"Oh my god, this is delicious! Can I hire you as my personal chef for this?" Yoko teased, earning a wink.
Prig, intrigued by the dish, approached them and playfully requested a taste. Orm playfully tapped her forehead, causing her to pout. "Wait until it's fully cooked."
Prig crossed her arms and stomped away from them, pretending to be offended. "You're so mean."
Meanwhile, Becky chuckled at their antics as she prepared some juice. The girls then sat down at the table, eating their meal as if it were their last. Their shared cooking efforts had filled their stomachs and left them content.
The laughter and banter among the friends added to the warmth of the moment, creating a sense of camaraderie and happiness as they enjoyed each other's company and the delicious meal they had prepared together.
In the lively setting of the living room, they engaged in light-hearted gossip and banter, gradually delving into more personal matters. Prig, with a mischievous grin, recounted Yoko's unexpected encounter with Phi Faye in the clothes tent, causing her to blush furiously.
"I was planning to tell you girls, but I wanted to make sure first if she was serious or not. I have already granted her permission to pursue a relationship with me."
Amidst the laughter, Becky brought up the topic of taking in all the Kwong siblings, prompting Prig to dismiss the idea, noting that Ying was not a Kwong. Playfully turning to Orm, she teased. "How about you and CEO Lingling?"
Orm, with a serious face gathered their attention. "I have something to tell you." As the room fell silent, she hesitantly revealed. "Actually, me and her are fuck buddy. Am I a slut?" Her fingers fidgeting nervously. Becky offered a supportive touch. "If it makes you happy, we're here to support you and no, you're not a slut. A slut is like Prigkhing flirting with everyone."
Prig and Yoko nodded in agreement, but Prig expressed concern. "If this situation doesn't benefit you positively, we have the right to step in. We are concerned about your well-being and will not tolerate any of this. But, she isn't manipulating your feelings, is she?" She then glared at the british girl. "And Becky Armstrong, I'm not a fucking slut. Just a little." They then burst out laughing except the blonde one who was just sitting silently.
Their laughter stopped when they realized their friend stayed silent. The three girls shared a moment of regret, with Yoko admitting guilt. "I shouldn't have suggested that idea. now you're in this situation." 
"It's not your fault. Lingling offered, and I couldn't refuse because I wanted to be close to her." Orm clarified.
Becky, sensing her stress, asked. "Then what's the matter? you seem unhappy." Orm poured out her feelings, expressing a desire for genuine love and connection with Lingling, not just physical relationships. "I wanted to end this fuck thingy relationship between us, but she refuses to allow it. She is exerting control over me, and I feel helpless and discouraged."
"Oh girl, Don't let her control you." Prig said shaking her head. 
Becky echoed the sentiment. "Prig is right. You deserve happiness, not pain. Be strong and make the right choice, alright?" 
"She has already allowed that to happen. Now, Lingling has all the control to manipulate you. She is aware of your vulnerabilities and is using it against you." Yoko intervened. 
Orm shakes her head and expresses her deep affection. "I love her. I'm sure that she will eventually come to love me if i keep doing what she wants." Hearing this, her friends look at her in disbelief.
"You excel in academics, but struggle in matters of love. Regardless of your decision, we'll support you." Prig mumbled, Despite their continuous advice, Orm seemed to turn a deaf ear, choosing to follow her heart while her friends grew weary of offering guidance.
Orm was just silent and in deep thoughts. Her phone rang, she excused herself to take the call. "Phi Win?" She was surprised to see the caller. 
"Nong orm, are you busy?" 
"Ahm no, but I'm hanging out with my friends right now." 
"Can we meet? I just have something important to ask you." Said the other line, though his tone is calm. 
She pondered for some time, puzzled as to why he wanted to meet with her and the purpose behind it. 
"Okay" She replied shortly. 
"Alright, then where should I pick you up?" Win asked with a smile, even though she couldn't see it. 
"Just send me the location where you would like to meet." Orm's last words were followed by the call ending. Shortly after, a message appeared on her phone containing the location and meeting time.
