Fiona was relaxing in the school cafeteria that morning. Suddenly Joseph approached him.
"You like Fandi, don't you? So yesterday you rejected me?" asked Joseph. Ouch.. ugh..
Fiona choked.
"W-what? I-I like Fandi? How can you think like that?" Fiona asked back.
"Well what do you think, what are you two doing in the classroom. Did nothing happen?"
Crack.. crack..
The sound of Fiona's collarbones rang. Fiona sighed.
"It's up to you what you want to think about me, but I don't have any feelings for Fandi," Fiona explained.
"What if I don't believe it?"
"That's your business. There's no profit for me either, do you believe it or not, right?" replied Fiona.
"One more thing you should know. Sometimes what we see is not necessarily what we think. I'll take it out first, bye!" added Fiona turning around.

Devika's face looks worried. She kept his eyes on Elea's unfilled seat.
"Why do you keep looking at El's chair?" Fiona asked.
"I'm worried about El, I'm afraid she's okay. Yesterday afternoon I went out with her."
"Why didn't you invite me? Eh, but I can't either. He he."
"That's not the problem, Fiona. Yesterday she fainted and was taken to the hospital."
"El is sick? What's sick? how come I don't know?"
"I was just told by her mother, if it turns out that she has a weak heart, Fi!"
"What? weak heart. That means she can't get tired right?"
"Yeah, it's no wonder he never attended sports and ceremonies."

That afternoon, Devika was waiting for Fiona in front of her house. But the house looks empty.
"Mom, excuse me. Where are the people who live here?" Devika asked one of the passersby.
"Oh, Mrs. Rani has moved a few days ago," she explained.
"May I have your address, ma'am?" asked Devika.
The mother handed her a piece of white paper with Fiona's new address on it.
While looking for Fiona's address, Devika met Fandi who was standing in front of her fence.
"Fandi and Fiona are neighbors?" Devika muttered.
Devika asks Fandi to take her to Fiona's house.
After knocking on the door, Fania opened the door of the house.
"Fan, is Fiona here?"
"Yes. Just come in, Dev," said Fania invitingly.
When Devika wanted to take a step, Fandi grabbed her right hand, "Wait! So you already know that Fiona has a twin, Dev?" asked Fandi.
Fania smiled.
"Devika and El already know, Fan!" said Fania.
"Then why keep it a secret?"
"Just want to know! Do you want to come in or not?" asked Devika.
After meeting Fiona they head to the hospital where Elea is being treated. Fiona, Fandi and Devika arrive at the hospital. They searched the hospital corridors looking for the room where El was being treated.
According to the information they got, El was being treated in one of the VIP rooms.
"You want to visit, El?" asked a man standing in front of the VIP room. Still young, only a few years above them.
"I'm Alvin, El's fiancée," he explained introducing himself.
Fiona and Devika were wide-eyed.
"What? fiancé, what do you mean?"
"Are you sure it's Fiona? El has a lot of stories about you and Devika," he said with a friendly smile.
"Yeah, I'm Fiona," Fiona replied.
Alvin invited them to sit in the waiting room.

According to the doctor, El can only be visited by two people. And should not be talked to and think about heavy things, because it will only stress him and make his heart condition worse.
Devika and Fandi visited Elea first.
"Nice to meet you, Fi," said Alvin starting the conversation.
"Yes sir," replied Fiona shortly.
"No need to be so stiff. Just relax with me, Fi."
"Are you sure I can relax? Does that mean I can interrogate you?" Fiona joked.
You turned out to be more fun, huh, than I thought. El lo said his son was really cool. But it turned out that you were more than I expected."
"Tsk, I feel flattered, ha ha...."
"But how's El actually doing?" asked Fiona seriously.
"Seriously enough. El has been really tired lately. Even though I've often advised her."
"Yeah, she's had a lot of activities lately, the tasks have piled up too. But, Vin, I'm sorry we all didn't know that El was sick."
"It's okay. El really doesn't want you all to know that she's actually sick,"
"I understand now why El is often picked up by the driver," said Fiona.
Fiona finally understood why Elea had said, it was more fun to be a Fiona who was free to go anywhere even though her father treated her like that.
"I understand now, El. Sorry, I was wrong that time, I thought you were jealous because you didn't know what your father was treating me with. But I also didn't know that you had a disease that was enough to make me afraid to lose you," Fiona muttered.
Devika and Fandi came out of El's room after a long time.
Fandi sees Fiona is quite close to Alvin.
"Well, I'll go in first, okay?" Fiona said getting up from her seat.
"Let me accompany you," said Alvin.
"No need, just let me accompany Fio," said Fandi.
"What the hell, Fan? You just came out. You just come here with me, cake!" Devika protested.
Fandi had to obey.
***
"Hi, El," said Fiona pleasantly.
"Hi! I'm sorry, it's a hassle for you to visit me here," El replied.
While Alvin sat on the sofa to make room for the two friends to chat.
"Well, take it easy. I'm also sorry, I didn't know you were sick at all. Why didn't you tell us about it if you were actually sick?"
"I don't want to bother you, let alone pity you."
"El, can you hear that. What's the difference between pity and care. Do you think that me, Fandi and Devika came all the way here just because they feel sorry for you? Don't we? We're worried about you, El!" said Fiona.
Elea hugged Fiona touched.
"Thank you for caring about me," said Elea in a trembling voice.
Fiona returned the hug and stroked Elea's back gently.
"Relax, El. Anyway, if you need my help, you have to tell me. Whatever the problem is, okay?" Fiona said letting go of El's arms.
"Gosh, so sweet. I think I'm considered a statue by you guys," said Alvin.
Fiona and Elea smiled happily.
"I'm out, huh? Your boyfriend is jealous, Fi," said Alvin.
"What do you mean by Fandi? He's not my boyfriend. Just a classmate of mine who happens to be my new neighbor too."
"Who is he to you. But he is jealous."
"Just how you feel, Vin," said Elea.

Outdoors, Devika surfs on her social media. Double-tap the phone screen to give likes. While Fandi is still upset. He wanted to see Fiona longer, but because of Devika's behavior he couldn't do it.
Devika glanced at Fandi, who had been nagging himself silently.
"What?! What do you want to tell me?" asked Devika.
"Who the hell am I telling you, Dev? With the wall?"
"Who knows, right?"
"You can talk to the one next to you," joked Fandi, who managed to scare Devika.
She approached Fandi and hid behind Fandi's back.
"What are you doing? I'm just afraid," joked Fandi.
"Aaaw!" Fandi screamed after getting a hard pinch from Devika.
"Are you kidding me? Oh, you challenge me. Want me to tell Fiona everything?" Devika threatened.
"Tell you what?" asked Fandi trying to relax.
"Tsk, you think I don't know that you like Fio. Don't you? Am I right?" said Devika.
"Really, Dev?" asked Fiona who suddenly appeared in front of El's room.
