'SRET!'
Tiffany closed her eyes. Her tears streamed down her cheeks incessantly, she could only hope that this was all part of her nightmare. he didn't want to see his hair that he had always cared for end up in such a cruel way. What should he say to his agency nantu? How about they cancel that cooperation because it looks messy? To Andrew, how did he confront him? His chest became increasingly claustrophobic considering Andrew who loved to stroke or randomize his long hair when pricking it, and it often calmed him down. Makes her feel protected. And Vino...
"Aah!"
'Tiring!'
"Eh?" That was Jaz's voice, wasn't it?
"Jaz!"
Tiffany sensed that Vey and Nuke who were holding her tightly were now taking it off and running towards the source of the sound.
Tiffany felt a glimmer of hope for her. Andrew's? Did Andrew come and save her?
His eyes slowly opened to seek the miracle. The first thing he saw was a person's back.he was happy because the magic was truly there. This guy saved her. But he also felt
disillusioned. Disappointed that his back did not belong to the person he was waiting for. It was the back of a woman. Her hair fluttered in the wind from the window. Tiffany tries to swallow her feelings of disappointment and steals a glance at Jaz
who turns out to be holding his hand that looks flushed, accompanied by Vey and Nuke. The scissors that had been in his hand had already been thrown a little far away from them.
"What's your business, damn it?!" Jaz yells exasperatedly at the girl standing between herself and Tiffany.
The girl preferred to turn around, ignoring Jaz's angry cries, and bowed, reaching out to Tiffany.
"You okay?"
Tiffany's eyes grew bigger. This girl was the girl sitting behind him. Once again, Tiffany really felt she did not know him. His smile was warmer than he expected.
"A, I'm fine. Thank you." Thank you."
Tiffany wiped her tears and accepted the girl's hand. He signaled that he was really in his words.
"Why did you interfere?! Ha?!"
Jaz who felt ignored again roared furiously, not heeding his two friends who were trying to calm him down.
After helping Tiffany to a perfect stand, the girl turned back towards Jaz and her friend, staring at them silently.
"A, did you see see see? Say something!"
"I don't think you know the word deterrent, do you? What exactly do you get out of bothering others?"
"What?! You want to threaten us again with your mafia boyfriend?! We're not afraid!"
The girl reached into her pocket to pull out her phone in a slow motion. Tiffany stared inexplicably at Jaz and his friend who followed the girl's movements with a look of horror. Vey was even seen crying from his glassy eyes and trembling legs. A second later, along with the girl raised her phone to her ear..
"Look at it later! I'll teach you both a lesson!" Jaz turns around and immediately takes a big step out of the class followed by Vey and Nuke who are blown behind him.
"What are you doing?" Tiffany asked while giving a look of admiration after the three of them were no longer visible to the eyes.
The girl blinked her eyes.
"Just a little bluff."
They laughed freely together before lining each other's steps out of the classroom that had been quiet.
"You want to go to the cafeteria together?"
"Can. But before that, tell me your name. I'm Tiffany."
"I'm Inca."

"Okay, move away, sir."
Finally, Vino whispered while exhaling a sigh of relief along with the driver who gave a thumbs up to Shirley and
stop the car slowly. The silence was uncomfortable for him. After being triggered by the end of the conversation with the wrong discussion, the song mellow song distel pak driver further aggravated the atmosphere. Vino resisted his urge to shout earlier to spill his discomfort.
But now it doesn't matter anymore. Their taxi car stopped in front of a simple building that caught his attention.
Nans.. A salon?
Immediately he turned his head towards Shirley behind him. Staring demands an explanation. The girl only showed an innocent grin before lightly patting the driver on the shoulder.
"Thank you, sir. I don't bring cash. Give me father's account."
"Well, can't-"
"It's 3 times."
"Okay, just a second, brother."
Vino rolled his eyes seeing the driver rush to show his account number after finding it out of nowhere. 2 minutes later Shirley showed proof of transfer from her phone to the driver's pack that immediately sparkled her face.
"Thank you many, brother. Moga's a good fix."
"Let's get down, Vin."
The driver's prayer was ignored entirely
Shirley who was already moving down after opening the car door. It was precisely Vino who guaranteed it in his heart. he exchanged a smile with the driver before joining open the car door and down following Shirley.
"Why did you take me to the salon?"
"I'll turn you into a beautiful butterfly in an instant. Come inside!"
Shirley pulled the hand of Vino whose brain was trying to digest Shirley's words, but then chose to give up and surrender to her fate. They entered the glass door of a simple 2-story building
and found a middle-aged woman who was sitting reading a book. The woman immediately got up to them when she realized the arrival of a visitor who was none other than the person she was waiting for.
"Mom!" Shirley immediately rushed into the arms of the woman she called 'mother. The woman smiled while
patting his back.
"You haven't played here in a long time."
Shirley nodded her sinking head on the woman's shoulder slowly before taking off her embrace.
"I'm so busy."
"And you came to introduce your girlfriend to me?"
Vino gasped in surprise at the joke. But he had not been able to deny it, Shirley had already moved quickly to embrace his arm while laughing crisply.
"Do we look good?"
"It's not. We're just friends. He brought me here for a purpose I don't know." Vino hurriedly explained after pulling off his arm from Shirley's embrace.
The woman laughed at his words and then offered her hand.
"Don't worry. I know you're not her boyfriend. Elly explained the situation to me. Some of these kids are too arrogant to find a boyfriend. My name is Nancy. The people closest to me usually call me Nans."
"Vinos." Vino took a helping hand and shook it.
"Come here. I've prepared a place for you."
"Eh, wait wait wait! I haven't even said what you need to do!" Shirley held back their movements with her hands.
Miss Nancy turned to him with a slanted smile.
"And you want to say that your opinion is better than my judgment and my thinking?"
Shirley immediately let go of her hand while showing a strange grin.
"Of course not. Everyone knows you're an expert."
"good. Come on over here, Vino."
Miss Nancy put her foot forward followed by Vino behind her. Shirleypun finally followed them immediately after fixing his hat and sunglasses. This salon, although small, is always crowded by loyal customers Miss Nancy. He must be careful if he does not want his identity revealed.
"Okay, sit down."
They stopped in front of a chair that was a little further away from the other seats.
Vino asked with an agitated look for him to sit down.
"What are you gonna do to me?"
"Just calm down, there's not much to do. Maybe all I'm gonna change is your hair."
"Also give him contact lenses, ma'am! Vino has glasses always and it's annoying!"
"If you want contact lenses that can help her vision at the same time, you should go to the ophthalmologist. Here I only have contact lenses for decoration."
"yeah. Vino, what are your eyes minus?"
"3 right, 2 left."
"Okay, I'll take care of it. He should wear contact lenses. Papa would agree."
"Yes, yeah, whatever. Now go to the kitchen, son. I've prepared your favorite fried rice."
"REally?!" Shirley's eyes that sparkled for a second then narrowed full of probes.
"Wait, are you trying to kick me out?"
Miss Nancy laughed at hearing that.
"less precise. Don't you want this to be a surprise for you?"
Shirley nodded in understanding after 5 seconds of putting on thinking mode.
"After that. I'm waiting for the best surprise from you. I'm going in first, Vino. Don't worry, mom is the best."
Shirley sauntered backwards while humming softly. This place really gives her warmth, comfort, freedom for her to express her feelings. This new precious thing was realized.
"I'll spend it all!" He shouted before closing the door that led to the back of the salon.
"He had breakfast already."
Vino's murmur was apparently heard by Nancy's mother who responded with laughter
small-time.
"He's too easy to read, isn't he? Like a child in need of affection and warmth" he said, pairing Vino with a cloth to cover his body.
"You're friends with him?"
"That's how."
"For the first time there was a friend for him. She's a good girl, though stubborn. I hope you can understand each other."
Vino nodded stiffly. Don't know what to answer. Miss Nancy laughed again seeing her attitude.
"Haha. Sorry if my words made you nervous. It's actually not that serious. I've looked at her like my own daughter. Sometimes I just worry too much about her soul being too fragile. But I think now he'll be fine. Here, put it on."
Vino stared puzzledly at the thing that Miss Nancy had thrust at him. A blindfold.
Miss Nancy grinned mischievously while blinking her eyes.
"It will also be a surprise to yourself."
