Erin has arrived in front of the school.

Erin see a familiar face standing in front of the entrance.

Erin get out from the car, and immediately call out the person.

"Mason!"

Mason notice Erin, and give out a big hand wave.

"Erin!"

Erin run towards Mason, and Mason immediately hugs her.

Many students are passing by, and gave them a weirded out looks. But neither Mason or Erin care, they continue to hug each other.

"Hey you two! Don't leave me behind!"

Suddenly Jessy come out of nowhere, and join Mason and Erin.

Erin and Mason are surprised by Jessy's arrival.

Mason just laugh, and Erin give out a giggle.

"(...School indeed is the best..!)"

"..And that will wrap our lesson up for today."

Erin is doing a private lesson with one of the teacher because she is missing a lot of lesson because she is absent.

"Do you have any questions, Erin?"

"No."

"Good to hear. This material will be on our test next week, so review the material again, okay?"

"Okay, sir."

"Good, that's all of today. I will meet you again tomorrow in class."

"Thank you, Mr. Howard."

Mr. Howard give Erin a small nod, and start to deal with papers on his desk.

It's halfway through the Lunch time. Erin still has some time for lunch.

"(I wonder where are they now.. Are they still in the cafeteria?)"

Erin doesn't bring lunchbox like she usually do. Because she wants to be like their friends, to buy and eat cafeteria food.

"(I haven't bought anything from the cafeteria before now that I think about it... I wonder what they have.. Oh wait!)"

Erin pull out her cellphone from her skirt pocket.

"(I can just text them haha! How can I forget if cellphones are actually exist!)"

Erin tap the ChAt app, and then check her contact list on ChAT.

"?!"

"..How come I don't have their contact?"

There's only Mom, Dad, Mr. Wilson, and Madame Diana on her contact list.

Suddenly Erin feels tensed up, and uncomfortable.

"(..This doesn't make any sense. If I am their best friend.. shouldn't I already have their contact list?)"

A sweat is rolling down from Erin's cheek.

"(..Maybe I Accidentally deleted it...)"

Erin shrug it off, and heads towards the cafeteria thinking if they are still there having lunch.

"Thank you for buying!"

Erin found herself only buying a sandwich in the cafeteria.

"(...Everything looks unappetizing....)"

Erin walk away from the stall that sells sandwiches, and then starts looking for Mason and Jessy.

Erin walk back and forth in the cafeteria, but she can't found Mason and Jessy anywhere.

"(..Maybe they have gone back to class?)"

Erin walk out from the cafeteria, and then head towards her class.

Erin take a step inside her class, but-

"(..Nope, they're not here...)"

There's only a few students inside the class.

Erin ask a group of girls that are having lunch inside the class about Mason and Jessy whereabouts.

"Um, hey. Do you girls know where Mason and Jessy are?"

The group look over at Erin with a surprised look.

"O-Oh.. Mason? Jessy?"

"Yeah, I'm looking for them.. Do you girls know where they are?"

"...."

The girls are silence for a moment, and then one of the girl speaks up.

"..They are probably at the rooftop."

"Rooftop?"

"Yeah, that is their usual hangout spots.."

"Ah, I see! I will go there! Thank you for the information!"

"B-"

The girl hasn't finished her sentence yet, but Erin has already run out from the class and heads towards the rooftop.

...

..

.

"Will she be okay..? I know if I don't really know her, but..."

"..Yeah, I know... I'm worried too..."

"..."

"Sarah? Are you mad?"

"...*sigh*....No...*yum*"

"That's a pretty big sigh there, Sarah..! That means you ARE upset.."

"...*sigh*, I can't hide it huh.."

"Well both of us are worried too, Sarah. Not only you..."

"...I don't know why her parents would do that..."

"Yeah! I mean like, why? And why specifically they recommend both of them?! They are not good to have around!"

"I absolutely agree with you, Kathryn! Are both of her parents dumb?!"

"..Calm down you two, don't talk bad behind people, especially about their parents."

"*choke* Y-Yea.. Sorry, Sarah..."

"Sorry.."

"I'm sure they have a good reason for doing this..."

"Yeah? You can tell, Sarah?"

"Haha! Sarah is really good at reading people!"

"..Both of you can say it's a gift.."

"Hehe~ Back to the topic though.. How can you tell?"

"...I just can... Both of them seems desperate.."

"..Yeah?"

"I can't see it, and I'm sure Larissa is the same?"

"Yup, I am confused too..."

"*sigh*.. You guys no need to be so blunt with her parents... I can see it through both of your faces."

"..Busted..."

"*Nervous whistle*~~~"

"You guys..*sigh*..."

"I'm sorry, okay.. I just don't really like Parents in general if you know what I mean.."

"Well, for me.. Both of them just seems a little bit shady.. And I get the 'I can solve anything with money' type of vibe from them.."

"..There are no doubts if Erin's parents are really rich, and really private from public. But we can't just make an assumption just from the outside."

"Yes, Ma'am."

"Yes, Ma'am Sarah~"

"...I just hope she will be okay..."
