Desperate situation called for desperate measures… However, it was hard to call Mai's situation desperate at the moment. Nevertheless, it was the only way she could explain the irrational things she was currently doing.
The stars were out in the night sky, and on the desk that would be placed next to her window sill, was a little container that would be used for food colouring. As the tears flowed from her face due to her stupid act of rubbing chilli sauce under her eyes, she realised that just putting them in a bowl would be ineffective.
Although her mother didn't know why she was doing what she was doing, she and Cindy followed Mai's instructions and helped her through her craziness by emptying one of the small food colouring containers they had in the cupboard.
Cindy grabbed one randomly and was about to peel off the plastic, when her mother suddenly stopped her.
