Mawar Restaurant, Pantai Timur Mall, Pengkalan Chepa - 2.00pm

After the whole incident, Haqimi and his friends had a peace of their time as they attended their class as usual. After the class ended, Haqimi, Aida, Alisa, and Golinia walked towards the restaurant at Pantai Timur mall to have some lunch. They went inside before ordering their meal for lunch and heads to their seats. After that, the girls causally talked with themselves while Haqimi is just sitting there while looking at his phone. He then overheard a familiar voices coming from the entrance that he and the girls came from. He quickly took a glance only to immediately turn back to his phone as Dhia and Nadia casually came in ordering some lunch. The girls notices the commotion and sees Haqimi with a plain face - never took a peek on Dhia and Nadia, not even once. Both Dhia and Nadia heads to their seats after finished ordering their food. Nadia took a glance at Haqimi where she sees him never moved an inch when she and Dhia came in. "Surely, he knows that we're here, right?" she thought as she looks at him. Unfortunately for Nadia, he is somewhat oblivious in her perspective, as if they are ghosts to him. As time passes, Dhia and Nadia finished eating their lunch. They stood up as Nadia peers at Haqimi one last time only to see Haqimi is just stood silence with his drink and phone. Both of them walk away after Dhia opens the door next to their table and headed towards their rental house.

Haqimi, who was silent the whole time when Golinia and the other girls blather, looks at Dhia and Nadia as they fades away from his view. His expression became sadder as he looks down to his phone. Alisa notices him depressing, kicks his legs with her feet and asks him if he is okay while smiling. Knowing that she did that just to cheer him up, Haqimi smiles and tells her that he is fine. After the girls finished with their meal, they wanted to go up to the mall to buy some groceries but realizes that Haqimi is still here. They ask him if he wants to tag along with them, however he kindly declines the offer - stating that he was needed elsewhere. The girls nodded as both the girls and Haqimi went into their separate ways.

University Malaysia Kelantan Kota Campus, Pengkalan Chepa - 4.00pm

Two days later, Haqimi and all of his friends came out of the class at the library building as Golinia, Aida, Syakila, Alisa, Husna and himself walked towards the center of the campus. The girls casually walks to the right of the campus to the Wardini Restaurant while Haqimi went to the opposite direction, leaving the girls for their own happy time. He walks towards his car when he sees a familiar face of a lady sitting at the trunk of the car. She wore a red rose colored shirt with her neatly and beautiful hijab wrapped around her head which covers her neck. She smiles at Haqimi who is now closer to her. "First time seeing you out in the open, Lady Khadijah." he teases her. Khadijah replies to his comment, "Well just because I am a noblewoman of Kelantan, that does not mean I cannot go out in about in the mansion." He looks at her up and down. "You really want to get inside my old and most likely obsolete car?" he asked. Khadijah gave a genuine shocking expression. "Did I actually said that? I literally did not mean that, though. Altis is a dope car, KimKim. I'll have to admit." Haqimi rolls up his eyes and said, "You still keep calling me that? Even though both of us have different status? I thought you hated me and wanted to date a higher nobleman - same as Neelofa who dumped Fattah Amin?" She pouted and puffed her cheeks while giving him a slow but medium bonk at him. "First of all, I am not like Neelofa. And second of all, you and I are at the same age after all, not to mention you're the only Kelantanese guy to ever wanted to have a chat with me regardless of my status." she said. Hearing those words made Haqimi smirk and opens the passenger door for her. "There's still heat on the inside. So, uh... sorry about that." he apologizes, which she shakes her head and replied, "It's fine. I have gotten used to it when it comes to you, KimKim."
