"Fern would have been happy if she was here. Right?" Nattasha said hesitating between her words walking their way out of the gate. "That instruments that teacher presented us earlier on the club meeting is really increadible. I'll make her jealous later."

Pie silently walking with her. 

"Oh. Do you want to visit the hospital were Fern and her mother's at? It's very near here." Nattasha hesitatingly offered her.

"I said I'm busy." Pie answered without looking at her.

"Do you have any other business to attend to? Class activity perhaps?" Nattasha asked.

"That's none of your business." Pie replied coldly.

Nattasha bite her lips obviously saddened about what she heard and stops walking. "Pie.."

"..don't you not like me?"

"What?" Pie stops at the same time and looked at her. "What do you mean?"

"Well.. I'm kind of boring.. I look silly too.." Nattasha bow her head looking at the floor at her inked-in converse. "But still.. I want to be your friend. 'cause I like you.." She added.

"Oops! HEHE. Sorry. I said something weird nevermind." Nattasha take it back and pretends to be cool with the situation and continues to walk ahead Pie after gaining enough distance her happy face replaced by saddness. Pie on hold in her position looking at Nattasha walking away from her.

"Kim?" Nattasha said looking at Kim who's standing in front of gate waiting for something. 

"What are you doing here? I thought you went home already. I didn't see you on our band meeting." Nattasha said by the time Kim approched her. 

"Ahh. That? I had something else to do.." Kim giving her alibi. "Did everyone leave? Where's Pie?" 

Perfect timing Pie just walked outside the gate, Kim looked at the gate and grin then walked infront of Pie, Nattasha looking at her puzzled. 

"What?? Were not at school right now. Don't you see?" Kim said to Pie who's glaring standing infront of her. Pie looked around and bite her lips. Crap! Kim smiled at her sweetly.

Eh? What's going on with these two? They're standing so close with each other. Nattasha looking at them like a gossip girl holding .

"What do you want?" Pie said coldly.

"I'm going to hangout with you today. Here." Kim giving a cinema ticket to Pie.

"This movie is really popular right now. Let's watch together."

Pie took a quick glance on it. Cinema 04 7:15 PM  

"C'mon we should hurry!! Were gonna be late." Kim smiled at her innocently.

"Nope. I won't see it." Pie refuses.

"Why not?"

"I don't know. I just don't want to see it."

"Why?"

Pie whip her head not answering.

"C'mon~"

"No."

"I heard good things about it!"

"I said no." Whipping her head on the other direction, Keeps on arguing like a child.

"Gosh. C'mon. Why is it so hard to watch this kind of movie?"

"That kind of movie. I don't really feel to watch it. So please cut it out!" 

Kim defeated hold down her tickets. "Seriously. What's the big deal." She releases deep exhales. " I wanted us to have a good time because you always look so lonely." She said without looking at Pie's eye.

Pie looking at her, staring blanky. 

"Fine let's just go home."

"I have something to attend to." Pie excuse herself and walk towards Nattasha.

"Where?"

"Don't follow me."

"Nattasha. I'll go with you on the hospital.. I think I can stop by."

"Oh. Really?" Nattasha smile earnestly. 

"Yes." Pie answer without any hesitation.

"Wow. Cool.. Actually, I really didn't want to go alone." Nattasha giggling happily.

"What did you talk about Kim? Did you two fight?"

"It's nothing." Pie answered.

"Are you leaving just like that?" Kim looking from behind. "Where is she going?" Kim took a glance on the tickets on her hand. "It was really hard to get these tickets." She said with a flinch, she rustle and crampled the tickets on her hands and throw the tickets away. 

"I must be insane. Why do I like that kind of girl." Kim walks from the opposite direction frustrated. Pie whip her heads behind looking at Kim walking at the opposite direction and snatched her head back.
