Haura chooses to return to the apartment to rest and calm her mind, and she asks Alden to go back to work - he just wants to calm himself down. Struggling with his own mood.
"You can get back to work, I want to be alone for a while."
Alden declined to comment and only complied with whatever the woman said. He had actually left Haura alone inside his apartment, probably right, if Haura indeed had to calm her mind, and did not want to be bothered by anyone, including herself.
After Alden left, Haura went into the room—dia stood in front of the mirror looking at her shadow on the large glass, Haura noticed a bandage attached to her forehead, without realizing it the woman squeezed it and released the white object from there, after which her emotions again peaked when she remembered all those who had done evil to her, Haura remembers her former mother-in-law and her husband throwing her away like a wreck, Alila who snatched away all her happiness, and still wants to intrude on her life. Angeline, the woman who from the beginning also disliked him, made Haura angry, she was too accepting of everything that others did to her, even tend to be silent and forgiving. Suddenly a cunning smile of irony came out from the lips adorned with peach-colored lipstick, Haura's hand stalling to take the cotton in the box, removing her previous lip dye, which she had, and replace it with a bright red color that illustrates courage.
Haura walked over to grab the bag she had thrown earlier on the bed, and went from her apartment to somewhere.

After reaching the office, Alden immediately sat down leaning against his room chair, the man turned the chair up to one hundred and eighty degrees, until he can see the view of other skyscrapers in the city of Tadpole. He seemed to take a deep breath, he just wanted to live a quiet life, marry the person he loved, and start with a new life. However, he felt that people in Haura's past deeply disturbed Alden and Haura's own inner calm of course.
"Alden.. I want to talk!"
Josep suddenly stood behind Alden in a tall voice and cold accent.
Alden turned the chair back to its original leisurely, he looked at his best friend with a flat face.
"Remember, who are you talking to now! It's in the office, you're my subordinate!"
"Why did you go so far with Angeline? Just for a new guy like Haura?!"
Alden got up from his seat, and walked round to Josep. The two men were actually standing in line. Alden's gaze completely froze Josep helplessly, and it seemed that Josep felt like he was speaking the wrong way.
Alden patted Josep's shoulder gently, then drew closer to his best friend until the two faces were only a few cubits away.
Josep nodded doubtfully, it seemed like the remark he had misstated if Haura was a new person in Alden's life.
"You and Angeline are new?! I've known Haura since I was in High School, and I'm sure if you saw me back then, you and Angeline wouldn't want to be friends with me. But not with Haura!" alden replied firmly, he really wanted to make Josep open his eyes wide. "You know? Only Haura was the popular girl of the time who wanted to greet me and befriend me! It really made me fall in love with her!" added Alden in a high tone.
"But after all An is our friend" said Josep in a low tone as if he was afraid to face Alden's anger.
"You love her?! Chase him! Don't let him get away!" Alden's words made Josep gasp. How does he know if Josep harbors a taste for Angeline, Josep's tongue is completely muddled by his boss.
"You think I don't know?!" Alden chuckles. "I knew from the beginning, Josep! You've loved him since college!"
"Ba–how did you know?"
"Now go after him! Don't let him loose, and instead chase after me like a madman!"
