Ken's house
Sophie tip toed to the washroom, and put her clothes back on. Ken's body still lied flat naked on the bed, and he was snoring so loud. It is sad that she had to leave like this but the awkwardness would be intolerable if he woke up. She knew there is nothing to gain from this, she knew him too well. Yet, the feelings never really left her.
Her head is still spinning from last night, and there is a huge bulge on her head. She didn't even thought of bathing and just quickly wash up herself. Presentable enought to drive and head back home to face her roommates. Although this has happened many times before but with Ken it is different. She was nervous and scared. She was in love again. It is a love hate relationship she have with this feeling. She took one last glance at him and at the watch and left silently

Festivities
7:15 pm, 18th February
Charlize's Penthouse
'Snap!' A picture of all of Charlize's colleagues and friends displays on Matt's new camera. "Hey Matt, come take with us !" Charlize cried out to him from the crowd. "Its okei la! Later later.." he smiled back. The crowd began to dispurse and sat accordingly on the long glass table that seems too fragile to hold the amount of food catered. "Gong hei fatt choi..Gong hei fatt choi...sek fan sek fan" Charlize took her chopsticks and everyone started eating. Matt ate quitely throughout the whole dinner and occasionally steered his head to Charlize whenever she started to joke around. He doesn't really know everyone, in fact other than Bernard whom he had seen once at Charlize's birthday party...he can barely remember the others.
"Hey Matt!, why so quiet...anyways... I haven't seen you in a long while...what happen to you la? Got a girlfriend already isit?" she laughed. "Hhuh?! No la! Been busy with work and the 'night shift'....no time to sleep also" he grins. Charlize always knows how to dig in and she remembers things very well. He can never hide a single thing from her. They were best friends for years. Yet, he can never tell what is on her mind. "What night shift? Entertain boss's clients isit? I know those Japanese can be 'hamsap' (horny)le" she glance at the crowd with a naughty grin and looks back at him. "Yea man, those buggers are crazy drinkers and my boss always needs me there to interpret for him" he tried to reply without showing any signs of shyness. The crowd laughed out loud.
Slightly after, Charlize phoned ranged. "OMG OMG!! Its Andez!!" she opened her eyes wide and stared straight at Matt. "Oh...I forgot to tell you....he is coming back for holidays" he laughed. She picks up her phone and shouted "ANDEZZZZZZZZZZZ.....you coming back!!!". The crowd kept quiet in anticipation for her next reply. "What!?!? ....you're outside my place?!" she stood up and ran straight to the security video installed next to her bedroom. "OMG!!" another scream is heard from a distance. The crowd laughed like mad and still don't know what is happening. Who is Andez?

In peace with the past

Ken's House
Sophie's body lies bare naked against the soft waterbed. She could barely open her eyes. She tries to tilt a little but the streaks of joltin' pain from her head prevents her from doing so. She has been in this room before, she can tell from the smell of the room. Just about then she realize there is someone hugging her from behind. She glance down towards her body to see the hands that is over her. It was the same firm grip that has held her this way almost everynight for 2 years. It is Ken's hands. Even the watch that she bought for him is still on it.
She could barely remember what has happened yesterday. But somehow she is happy that she ended up in his arms. Funnily, the bitter feeling and resentment isn't there. Just peaceful solace of old memories mixed with the present moment. She couldn't care less if she was taken advantage of. She still loved him, that is for sure. She smiled, held his hand and closed her eyes.

Mummy's girl
10.30 am, 17th February,
at Mandy's Bedroom
Mandy took a look in the mirror and smiled. 'What a beautiful day' she thought. The sun is not too bright and the weather not too humid. Just the way she liked it. Plus today is Chinese New Year's eve! She put on some clothes and hurried down the stairs to greet everyone. Her father is on the couch reading newspaper and her mom praying. Her dog 'Floppy' seems to be the only one that is excited to see her. It ran straight up the stairs towards her leg. "awwwww.. good morning baby!" she embrace the Maltese in her arms.
"Girl, go eat your breakfast at the back then come help mummy wash the praying table" her Mom turned and smile. "Good morning Mom" she kissed her gently on the cheek. In that brief moment she noticed that her mom is actually growing older. There are more wrinkles on her face and white hair are visible. It is high time she started supporting her. She continued on into the kitchen and ate the chicken porridge her mom prepared. It was her favorite since young. She loved her so much.

Dropping pieces
3.45 am 17th February.
At Darrren's Poolside
Sophie slid opened the glass panel and escaped out to the poolside for some fresh air. Those 'morons' just can't keep their hands of her especially when they are so freakin intoxicated. The tequila in her body already started to kick in, and she knows she probably will be too drunk to walk in an hour or so. In this few minutes of consciousness, she slowly search her back for her pack of cigarettes. With much effort, she finally managed to lid one up.
She took a puff and closed her eyes. The nicotine and alcohol starts shooting random shots of what happened tonight. Ken as usual were busy with Samantha, his most recent fling bitch. 'What a bitch! She even threw her a stare before kissing that drunk bastard. Just the thought of it makes her so furious and want to go in and take another 5 seconds shot. How could she had become like this. This was suppose to be a game that she is good at, and Ken wasn't like this before. He was this nice and caring guy that she knew, whom always brought her sweets every morning when they were in highschool. Although alot of girls had crush on him, he was always ignorant bout it. She still remembered their first kiss back den and their last after they had sex in the car one and a half years back. That was also the night she found out that he was cheating on her. ..
Thumpppppppph! She fell flat on the concrete floor and lost her consciousness.

Dreams & Reality
12.15am, 17th February.
Keagan lied on his bed staring at his phone. He had tried calling her at least 10 times now but to no avail. Sigh, it must be that her battery died again. She really needs a new battery for her phone. 'Maybe I'll get it for her sometime this weekend. His eyes hang in a daze, and slowly his consciousness begins to fade.
Sophie is fixing her makeup in the ladies. Some stupid drunk guy decided to use her face as a towel and somehow smeared her makeup. What a crazy night this is. Darren's party always ends up like this. Least she is still sober, it is hard to get drunk lately. It may be because of her night job that her alcohol tolerance have became so much stronger. 'Oh wells,' she give a last puck to even out her lipstick and headed back to the mainroom.
'Phew' sighs Mandy. Finally she got home, took a nice long bath and all ready to lie on the bed. 'Ken should be asleep by now' she checks her phone again to see if she did miss any message from him. Nope, there was none. She roll back on to her bed and takes her long overdued sleep. 'Goodnight baby' she whispered and dozes off.

High Society
11.15,16th February,
At Darren's Bangalow
The tall palm trees zooms through the side of the black BMW, the headlights cutting through the dark winding road ahead. "Hey, Darren...I'll reach there in 5, open up the gates alright?" Ken said on his cellphone. "Ok, what toook you so long man!" shouted Darren. He could barely hear himself with the beat in the crowded room. Much less, he was groovin on the dancefloor with this beautiful lady he adores. "Charlize,I'm going to get Ken alright...I'll be right back. He is at the door" he smiled and kisses her gently on the neck. "Eeww...you naughty thing.. go go." she replied in a seducive tone. She is already a lil tipsy from the red wine for dinner and the shots Darren made her. But she is fine, she intended it to be so. Its been a long while since she have let loose of herself. Her phone is already off after she gotten that three miss calls from Keagan. This is her night and nothing can stop her from doing what she wants. At least, not someone like Keagan.
Not long after Darren waited at the gates, 'the Man' has arrived. People call him that because Ken is the type of guy you want to have in every party. He is hilarious, extremely friendly and always turns up the mood of the scene. Everybody likes him. Both of them hurried up to the basement where the party is at, a fully enclosed in-house disco. Equipped with a bar, 3 sofas, dancefloor and the works. So many indecent memories they have left here and there is more yet to come from the night. The liquor merely began to flow and the crowd is already cozying up. And the ladies are all having a good time.
Within minutes, Ken walked back with two ladies in his arms and a bottle of beer. "Hey Darren, you never told me she is coming" he looked at Darren with a one sided smile then gave Charlize a cheeky look . "Man, Charlize...I've got to say... if I knew better, I would have dated you back in highschool" he laughed out loud. "I'm going to try to take that as a compliment, thank you" she smiled back boldly raising her glass of wine. As the night went on, the room got darker, the music got louder and everyone got closer.
