The last day of off-campus freshman orientation.

"Last night, you didn't go to bed until one or two in the morning. You tossed and turned. What's wrong?"

Bew asked, folding her clothes and putting them in her suitcase. I wouldn't have bluntly answered that before we started eating late-night, someone had said something strange that was against her nature.

"I think it's full,"

Praewa replied. She got dressed in front of the mirror. After that, Bew didn't question anything anymore and continued folding her clothes.

In the afternoon, after lunch at the hotel, the third-year students, one person, stood in front of the bus door to check the roll, just like the last leg. The four of us were still sitting in the exact same positions, all standing straight. This time, no one wanted to buy ice or soda just in case, probably afraid that the dictatorial guards would confiscate it.

P'Luk Mee announced that on the way back, we would stop by the souvenir shop twice. Those who didn't want to get off could wait on the bus. If they got off, they would buy some food for them.

Meanwhile, P'Jeans occupied the seat in front of us to lean back and cross her legs to watch a Western series on her phone. I could see it clearly because it was right in front of us.

Oh, then what about the thing where I accidentally pressed the like button repeatedly...?

You know it but you just ignore it!?

Calling Line: Caramel

What made me stop my eyes wide open in panic was the incoming call that interrupted P'Jeans's Western series. My pretty fingers pressed the reject button without even thinking. I wasn't stupid enough to not see who was calling her. It was definitely Phi Mel.

I just found out the full name today. She's so sweet.

"Jeans, can I borrow your phone to play games? My battery is completely dead."

"Then why aren't you charging it?"

She complained to P'Luk Mee. She turned off the series she was watching and handed it to her friend anyway.

At that moment, the person in front of me glanced at my face from the corner of her eyes, leaning forward to talk about other people's business, so I quickly pretended to pull the earphones from Praewa to one side, pretending to have been listening with my friend for a long time.

I hope it was smooth enough.

"Young lady! Don't cut in line to snatch the bag. You've already graduated from high school. Come join the line!"

Phi Four's fierce shout quelled the people who were running after the bag. After that, our room became neat and tidy immediately.

Even though I, Praewa, Bew, and Toey were at the front, they ended up at the back and were at the end of the line.

Suddenly, from standing with tired legs and boredom, seeing P'Mel walking towards me from afar made me shine with curiosity.

"Hey, come here, P'Mel!"

I quickly leaned over and whispered to my best friend.

"You're definitely here for P Jeans."

My curiosity glands were working and working even better when P'Jeans got out of the bus just as P'Mel arrived. Oh my, everything was in our favor. These two were just a short distance away from us.

"I called..."

"I was asleep and didn't look at my phone,"

She replied shortly, without a final word, with an indifferent expression. You're lying, Phi!
