"Oppa.. Chigeum eodieya?" Zeisha asked as the line got connected, holding her breath, afraid her feelings might show in her voice. Lucky enough, one of the lamps on a post nearby got broken. She's slowly making a step back, increasing the gap between them. But one thing she regret right now is having a 20/20 vision, making her see things she should have not seen, and still making her see no matter how much distance she have stepped back. And those stupid damn eyes now hurts due to the controlled tears. But no.. no way. She's never going to give it a chance.

"Babe! Me?" Unnecessary sounds made his voice almost inedible as Sungyeol struggled to get loose while the woman tried to snatch the phone away from him, showering him with more kisses just anywhere her lips landed, making Zeisha feel sick. "Uhhh... I'm at the office right now doing some overtime works. Sorry.. I really need to rush this."

Liar! "Ohhh, geurae? Arraso.. I should not disturb you then. Don't overwork yourself okay? Take care on your way home. Goodnight." Enjoy what you are doing all you want. The hell I give a damn! Zeisha managed to catch her breath after the line got disconnected, pushing back all the tears that are on the verge of flowing down.

Cris pulled her behind one of the lamp posts, and with her hands on her waist, she looked at her with the utmost disbelief. "Woahhh.." No better words can express how speechless she is right at that moment. "Woaaahhh. Chincha!"

Zeisha stayed silent, absorbing what she saw and how Sungyeol lied to her in front of her eyes. He cheated on me. He lied to me. What should I do next? Where should I go from here? No matter how she asked herself with those questions over and over again, she could find no answer but just to sigh from the deepest pit.

Blowing her bangs, Cris glared at Sungyeol who just continued with their make out session. "Heol!" Her eyes went back to Zeisha who still remained quiet and calm despite everything. But she have known her cousin too well for 23 years. She knows there's more to that silence. "Yahhh..."

"What now???" Zeisha is undeniably on the edge.

"...wanna turn a bar upside down? Let's just go somewhere nicer." Cris forced a happy mood and a vibrant smile, God knows how and why. "Just like old times.." A smile slowly crept on Zeisha's face, and that's enough to make Cris' worry subside, and she'll do whatever she needs to do for her. "Fine.. Fine.. I know what you want." She searched for a number on her phone then dialed it. It's almost midnight but her call still got connected after 2 rings. "Mwoyah? Why are you still awake?"

"I was sleeping soundly until you called. You know I'm sound sensitive."

"Oh.. You are? I hardly remember. Since you are awake now, join us. You have 10 minutes. I didn't bring my car by the way."

"You should have just called for a driver if you need one."

"Yah imma! Do you think I am jumping in joy calling you over? Do you think I fucking love hanging out with a jerk like you? If you do, you better think again dude."

"Mwoya? Did you just swear at me?"

"Yeah.. So? Wae? Wae? Wae? Got a problem with that?"

"Anio. Just text me the address. I'll be ready in 5."

"I almost can't believe my eyes when I saw my caller ID. I thought I was dreaming."

Cris scoffed. "As always, you are a smooth talker. I would have been swayed if I don't know any better."

"Hey.. Hey.." Zeisha had to go in the middle to stop the heating atmosphere. "Did we come here for you to bicker.. again? Then I should just go home, should I not?"
