The group gathered around the lunch table of the location they were filming at, each with plates toppled over with food, they had really worked up an appetite. Mew sat on one side of the table with Jen, they had been filming together all morning. Over the last month, Jen had grown fond of Mew's caring character. They had formed a bond that surprised her, she wasn't expecting to get close to anyone but after a change of heart she opened up to the people around her. At least that meant she didn't feel so alone. 

"Any plans tonight?" Mew spoke through each mouth full.

"I'll more than likely be home for 9PM, dinner and bed sounds good." She responded the same. "What about yourself?"

"I finish early today so my sister is dragging me to some concert. An American band is touring and she didn't have anyone to go with so I said I'd go with her." Mew huffed.

"Who's the band?" She shovelled another spoonful into her already full mouth.

"Uh, LANY, I think is the name." Jen's interest peaked.

"LANY is hear, in Bangkok?" She pressed, her face lit up at the thought.

"You know them?" Mew's attention was taken away from his food.

"I do actually..." She drifted off for a second but was brought back when Gulf stumbled to the table with a plate of food.

"I heard you guys got through a whole scene this morning." He shovelled a spoonful of rice into his mouth and assessed the situation in front of him. "Why do I feel like I've just interrupted something?"

"Not at all, we were just talking actually about our plans tonight." Jen couldn't help but feel nostalgic at the thought of Paul being in town, she made a mental note to call him.

"Plans? You have plans after this... we finish at 8 o'clock?" Gulf had gone home after every day of filming and collapsed onto his bed, he was so exhausted he couldn't even think about doing anything else.

"I'm going to a concert with my sister, apparently Jen knows the group." Mew persisted.

"Well we actually met them a few months after debut, we wrote a song together but never had the chance to release it. We opened for them on their first tour." Mew listened intently while Gulf was focused on his plate in front of him. "Did you say you were going with your sister?"

"Honestly I'd rather not go but what can I do? I'm just such a great brother." He boasted sarcastically.

"I could try calling Paul, if you'd like? I mean, I've not spoken to him in some time but I could try getting a hold of him. For your sister..." Jen was glad to have an excuse to call Paul, they had such a good friendship at the time. Jen had almost fallen for him at one point but that was another story.

"Have I ever told you, that you're the greatest friend I've ever had?" Mew's sarcasm erupted again, Jen mocked him back.

"I wish I was going, they're so good live." She pouted with food in her cheeks.

"We'll just need to get through today as fast as possible." Mew responded, with the hopes that would actually happen.

"Not likely," they both laughed and looked towards Gulf. "You haven't by any chance learned your lines today, have you?" She jokingly asked.

"You mess up one time and suddenly you're the butt of all jokes, you guys are always ganging up on me." He let out a fake sob, joining in on the fun.
