Lisa is mindlessly looking at her desk when her best friend Rose enters her office. Rose directly sits on the expensive sofa; then she begins talking and asking Lisa questions. When she doesn't get any response from the brunette woman, Rose turns her head to Lisa. To her surprise, Lisa wasn't listening to her; she was just looking at her desk. With an amusing look, Rose decides to watch her best friend. From time to time she sees Lisa's lips flicker, as though Lisa is about to smile then. But Lisa didn't. Rose tries her best not to laugh at Lisa while she continues to observe her. This is the first time in many years that Rose sees her best friend zoned out, and that makes her curious. Again, Lisa's lips flicker, and this time it forms into a thin line, then her teeth shine whiteley into a dazzling smile. Rose shakes her head, and decides to stop whatever is happening to her best friend; Rose had enough and she can't bear another second to watch Lisa in that situation. With a devious smile on Rose's face, she gets the magazine on the center table. Then, she slowly walks to Lisa's desk and slams the magazine: making the brunette girl jumps in her seat. Lisa holds her chest; furiously she tilts her head, seeing her best friend laughing. Rose's left hand is put in her mouth while her right is pointing on Lisa's.

"Are you fucking, mad?" Lisa asks, throwing her ball pen to Rose. But before it lands on Rose's face, she has already caught the ball pen.

"You should see yourself in the mirror." Rose's laughs, tapping her thigh.

Lisa looks at her best friend with full anger in her eyes. Eyebrows contracted, she asks Rose a question. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Rose stifles her laughter, and shrugs.

"Get out!" Lisa hollers.

But instead of following her best friend, Rose slams her body on the upholstered chair that is in front of Lisa's desk. She brushes her dyed long blonde hair with her fingers; then she looks at her best friend and shakes her head. Without answering Lisa's question, Rose starts talking.

"You are not in your world, honey. Do you know how long I have been talking to you? Do you?"

Lisa signals her best friend to stop from firing her with the irritating questions, but Rose is determined. Rose puts her right index finger on her lips and waves her left hand; refraining Lisa from reasoning.

"No! You didn't because you were daydreaming while you were staring blankly at your table. And to make it worse you were smiling like a crazy person. What is up with you, today?" Rose exaggeratedly sways her hands in the air.

Lisa shakes her head and says, "Don't be an overacting ass, Rose. People smile."

Again, Lisa smiles as she remembers the incident earlier this morning. The priceless reaction of Jennie still lingers in Lisa's mind. Especially when Lisa smiled at Jennie, and told her that she hoped she proved her right. Lisa finds Jennie's reaction cute; Jennie's face turned red like a cherry tomato. And the awkward smile that Jennie gave to Lisa, Lisa finds it fascinating. Especially when Jennie's scrumptious bullet little hole appeared on her left cheek that made Jennie even more gorgeous than she really is. Lisa is sure that Jennie wasn't expecting that she will read the note that soon.

"Okay, enough with that smile."

Once again, Lisa's daydreaming was interrupted by Rose. What's wrong with you today? Rose questions her best friend.

With a sly smile, Lisa answers. "Cut that crap, Rose! Lisa scratches her nose as if it's itchy. "There is absolutely nothing wrong with me."

"Yeah, right." Rose hisses under her breath. "If there's nothing wrong with you then why were you smiling and staring blankly at your desk, as if you were mesmerized by......." Rose stops midway in her sentence when she sees the empty cup on Lisa's table, and before Lisa can even react, Rose has already grabbed the cup. "Hmm! An empty cup makes you zoned out? There must be special with this cup." Rose smiles mischievously.
