EPISODE 3: Mrs. Peters

Khria and Cici are walking in the hallways. “ you really

didn’t know? “ Khria asked Cici. “ yes, how many times do I have to tell you? “

Cici answered. “ gosh, you’re so focused on studying. You didn’t even pay

attention to our classmates! “ said Khria. Cici sighed. A guy poked Cici's back gently with his index finger.

" Uhm... Cici, I think you dropped this " It's the profound voice again. Cici looked behind her and saw Dann holding a pen as if he was handing it to her. " Th-that's not mine... I've never seen such a pen in my life! " Cici said nervously while Khria, on the other hand, is enjoying the scene. Dann looked confused. " It literally has your name on it... " Dann pointed at the sticker that has Cici's name on it. Cici was speechless. " I-I... ごめんなさい! ( I'm so sorry! ) " Cici said and ran out of the scene. Dann was flabbergasted. " what... did she say...? " Dann asked. " Oh, she said sorry in Japanese. Keep the pen, she won't mind " Khria said and followed Cici, leaving Dann standing in the hallway like a rock.

 Meanwhile…

  “This is it. “ the handsome and tall man

said. He rang the doorbell three times. A woman in her 50s opened the door. “

Oh, hello.. may I ask who are you? “ the woman asked. “ Mrs. Peters, It’s me,

Louie “ Mrs. Peters’ eyes widen. She cannot believe that Louie is standing in

front of her looking so… charming!.  “

Louie? I can’t believe it! It really is you. Come on in “ Mrs. Peters said.

Louie came inside and was asked to sit down. “ Do you want some juice?... or perhaps

some cookies? “ Mrs. Peters asked. “ No, thank you. I just ate lunch “ Louie

answered. Mrs. Peters sat down and asked “ Since when did you arrive? Have you

and Cici met? “

  “ We haven’t met yet. Is she in college

now? “ Louie asked. “ Ahh, yes. She applied for fine arts 4 years ago “ Mrs.

Peters replied. “ she applied for fine arts?... Well, that was unexpected. “

Louie said. Mrs. Peters let out a slight laugh. “ when are you going to meet

her? “ Mrs. Peters asked. “ When I had the chance. She must be very busy “

Louie answered. “ Well, that’s true “ Mrs. Peters said. Louie looked at the

kitchen as if he is looking for someone. “ Where’s Mr. Peters?... He usually

cooks at this time, right? “ Louie asked. Mrs. Peters’ expression has become a

bit sad. Louie looked at Mrs. Peters and got concerned. “ Why? What

happened?... Can you please tell me? “ Louie asked calmly. Mrs. Peters sighed

and said “ 3 years. He’s in a coma. He got into a car crash right after Cici’s

first day of college “. Louie was shocked by the news.

   “ I am so sorry, Mrs. Peters. I didn’t

know “ Louie said. “ It’s fine, you don’t need to apologize “ Mrs. Peters said.

Before Louie could speak, his phone rang. “ Excuse me, Mrs. Peters “ Louie

said. “ Sure, go ahead “ Mrs. Peters said. Louie answered the call. After a few

minutes, Louie hung up on the phone call. “ It’s really nice chatting with you,

Mrs. Peters. But I still have some things to do.. “ Louie said. “ Oh, It’s

fine. I know you’re busy too, and I’m also not planning on you staying here for

a long time “ Mrs. Peters said.

   “ Thanks, Mrs. Peters “ Louie said.

Louie got out and got into his car. Before he drove off, he waved goodbye to

Mrs. Peters. Mrs. Peters waved goodbye to him as well.
