Alex stopped in the parking lot and Kira gets down of the motorbike.
She tried to take off her helmet but she struggled to do it!
Alex saw her, he walks closer to her, " Let me do it." He said as he pulled her hands.
Alex lifted his hand again and took the helmet from Kira's head.
Kira looks up to Alex.
' I wish you were that man who wants to marry me.'
'I would never hesitate to say yes!' Kira secretly thought.
Her tears started to form in her eyes.
Alex notices Kira's weird look to him.
"Why?" He asked.
Tim's question made Kira snapped back to her senses!
She didn't notice that she was about to cry!
She blinks her eyes a few times but it only made her tears fall!
"Ah!" Kira touched her eyes and pretended to be hurt!
"Why?!" Alex got a little bit rattled!
"Oh, I think something is stuck in my eyes!" Kira lied, it is to cover up the tears that roll down to her face!
"Let me check it!" Alex held Kira's face and take a closer look at her eyes.
"Nothing's here," Alex said while looking at Kira's eyeball.
"Uhm... I... I think... I think it's gone!" Kira said and then turns and walked away from Alex.
Alex wonders why Kira suddenly walks away.
Alex decided to follow Kira, " Kira, is there anything wrong?" he asked as he tries to catch up with her.
Kira stopped in her track.
"Huh?!" she blurted out.
"You're acting strange" Alex commented.
"Is there any problem?" He asked with concern.
"Uh, " Kira revealed a forced smile!
"I... I ..." Kira tried to think for an alibi.
"I was just thinking about auntie." She lied.
Alex held Kira's hand, " If you feel like crying, just call on me, You can lean and cry on my shoulder."
"Thanks, Alex." Kira blurted out.
"What for?"
"For being there for me. Thank you for your friendship, Alex."
"I will always by your side, Kira."
Kira stared at Alex, 'Maybe not Alex.' she secretly said.
Kira felt like crying again, she blinks her eyes a few times to suppress her tears, and then she looks at her watch to check the time.
"We're going to be late!" She said to Alex, "We must go now."
"Ennn..." Alex nodded his head.
The two of them walk side by side going to the admin office.
Kira and Alex entered the admin office.
She presses her thumb to the biometric before she heads to her locker, but she was met by her co-teachers' tease!
"Ayeehh!!" Myla a senior teacher screamed!
"Ohmo!" Kira almost jump out of fright!
" You startled me!" Kira complained!
She felt like her spirit has separated from her body!
"What did I saw in the parking lot? Huh?!" Myla asked suspiciously, but with a smile on her face.
Kira automatically knitted her brows.
"What are you saying?" She asked in confusion.
Myla nudged her lightly, "Hey, don't you ever try to deny it to me, Kira!" Myla continued to tease Kira.
"I saw you get down from teacher Alex's motorbike and he even took the helmet from your head!" Myla said and she can't help but giggle!
"Oh! That?" Kira smiled bitterly, " Don't misunderstand teacher Alex's actions, he is just being gentleman, nothing is going on between us." She explained.
"But, that is not what I am seeing!" Myla said.
"What do you mean?" Kira asked.
"Teacher Alex is always there for you and make sure everything is alright!"
"He even brings foods for you in the hospital because he was worried that you might have not eaten that day!"
"And he fetched you at home today!"
Kira sigh!
"He's just concern to me because I am his friend, and besides, he has a girlfriend."
"What if he doesn't have a girlfriend?"
"Myla, let's just stop this alright?" Kira said and then she turns to leave.
She doesn't want this topic to go far!
But Myla doesn't want to stop!
"I heard that teacher Alex and his girlfriend has broken up a few months ago," Myla said.
Kira stopped in her track.
She turns back to Myla with her knitted brows.
" What?!"
"Her girlfriend chooses her career over teacher Alex, I heard she choose to work abroad, and rejected teacher Alex's marriage proposal."
"R-Really?" Kira blurted out in an unbelievable expression.
Kira turns her head to Alex on the other side of the admin office.
He is smiling while talking to the other teachers!
It is not obvious to him that he is a broken-hearted man!
"I didn't know it," Kira said in a faint voice.
"He never talked about it!" She added.
"It's not obvious though."
"Yeah right! Men are really like that!"
"They like to hide what they feel because they don't want to look weak!" Myla commented.
Kira looks at Alex again, He was there for her whenever she needs someone to comfort her, but she never knows his struggles!

Coby went back to Tan's mansion after he sent the documents.
"Good morning, Mr. Tan." he greeted Tim.
Tim nodded his head before he gets inside the backseat.
"Did she accept it?" Tim asked.
"Miss Li has already left for work when I arrived," Coby replied.
"Oh!" Tim blurted out.
"But I gave it to the old lady, Helena." Coby continued.
"I told her to give it to Miss Li when she gets back home."
"Good!" Tim said.
"Is there something else you want to say?" Tim asked again.
"Uhm..." Coby looks at Tim through the rearview mirror.
"Someone fetched Miss Li in their house."
"Who?"
"I think he is a teacher named Alex."
Tim's expression automatically turned cold.
Coby gulped when he saw Tim's expression changed!

"Goodbye teacher!"
A five-year-old student said goodbye to Kira.
"Goodbye, Jamie!" Kira said with a smile on her face.
The kid got out of the classroom with his guardian.
Kira fixed the messy classroom, but before she could even finish fixing everything, her phone suddenly rings!
Kira took her phone and see the caller ID.
Her brows knitted when she saw the anonymous number.
She swiped her phone and answered it.
