Chapter 23 - Fishy atmosphere.

They went home to find their parents eating pizza at the table and laughing. Ploy asks.

"I thought you guys were at the reunion." Beam's mother replied while poring some soda at the glass.

"Yes we did come, but we didn't spend the night there, but you know what? If we are having a family reunion, I want just us and your father and grandparents." Ploy's mother replied.

"Did you know? after ploy's grandfather passed away and they all get the inheritances? no one came to every vocation to look after their grandparents. only ploy's father who is taking care of him stayed." Arhtit called the two to eat pizza and handed them a plate and a plastic cup with soda.

"Let's eat, Let's eat. Ploy! Put down your phone your ignoring the blessings." Ploy and beam were delighted to eat pizza. Ploy's mother asks.

"What did you two do? Did you two go to the mall or arcades?" beam replied.

"We went to a café and eat there." They were happy that night but ploy's instinct isn't; ploy realized that her mother was happy; her mother sometimes changes her mood after she went home.

"There was something off to them." Beam replied while doing her bedtime skincare.

"I don't know, but what is it?" ploy replied.

"Mom's mood should be unpleasant due to the fact that we came and we didn't clean the house your father ordered in front of the table last night. they are hiding something." It bothered ploy even before she fell asleep; then a random taught comes up to her mind. Ploy said to herself while staring at the ceiling.

"If I tried going to Aom's house, what would happen? She's the popular kid there and I don't know what should I do? one clout chase on TikTok her 1M followers would come after me." Ploy replied to herself again imagining all the scenarios it could possibly do.

"But if in Aom's statistics, if the 40 percent we're across Thailand, not everyone would come here to support her, unless they are willing, and the other remaining countries are really flying to Thailand just to get in Aom's trend. I can't sleep… I'm scared."

Ploy gains her spirit after her emotions reset in the morning, she wakes up in nice blue sky dawn, ploy grabs her uniform and hangs it beside the bathroom door to take a bath.

Beam is doing her skincare morning routine after taking a shower in her room's mirror. Beam asks ploy.

"Let's go together?" ploy replied while her voice reverbing inside and scratching her head with shampoo.

"Sure! Wait for me." After ploy gets done with herself, she grabs her bag, then gets shocked at beam wearing a jacket.

"Why ploy? does your classroom have an AC and modern?" ploy replied.

"WELL, I'M SORRY! MY CLASSROOM ISN'T THAT HIGH-TECH BUT STILL, IT'S NOSTALGIC, unlike yours with high tuition fees." Ploy pouted her lips and felt dismayed.

"But I haven't touched our science laboratory." Beam wheezed hard.

"You're on private, aren't you? I studied in public." Ploy replied.

"Yes, but the school is in a poverty yet so you have to really do life hacks to survive school."

They walked in the middle of the dawn at 5:30 AM, while walking and just staring at their phones, beam shared a meme.

"This is! so me, look! That one person in the class who know a lot about students in the room and outside the section." Ploy smirked at beam; then proceeds on walking to the Korean mart until they both split together.
