"Come on, the discussion is about to start" Marline says as she walks her way out, giving us a bit of privacy. "Sorry for hugging you. I didn't mean- I don't know what I'm thinking" I speak swiftly before he interrupts. "Ani- Anita, it's fine. With all these mess we're going through, someone supportive in time like this won't hurt right?" He slides his hand into his hoodie's pocket and shrugged.

I nodded. "Right, shall we?"

We all stand around an island while Arman are giving us instruction on how we all should act tomorrow.

"Okay please listen carefully. Especially you, the girl with blonde hair. First, search for sharp or hard things that we can use as a weapon. Doesn't matter what the size is, as long as it can protect you"

"Second, find as much food as possible and drinks too. We need to keep ourselves hydrated"

"Third, bring along important things such as lighter and charging cords"

"Fourth, if your phone are with you. Make sure the battery is full and most importantly, don't forget to silent your phone every time we go out" Arman command.

"I really don't understand, what's the benefits we get for putting our phone on silent?" Sasha asks. I wonder how annoying she could be.

"Because they are attracted to sounds and noises. Are you clear now?" My brother asks, looking at all of us, one person at a time.

"Now, go get some peaceful sleep. Tomorrow are going to be the worst day of your life" Arman ended his speech, I know my brother have characteristic of a leader but this is another level.

Screen on my phone already shows at 1.45 a.m. but my eyes are not even tired. Arman's word kept playing on my mind just like how 'Despacito' kept playing on the radio.

I walk down the stairs, straight into the kitchen. The lamp are off so I walk slowly searching for the switch when I suddenly bump onto something hard. Just when the lights on I realized that I bump into Clyde.

He's in sweatpants, and shirtless.
