Love Exchange's
Episode 195: End of Sia-Sia

The atmosphere became tense with me and Cassie swearing behind the doll's claw game. We lowered our bodies while peering towards them. Unexpectedly they walked to the game claw doll where we were. Rein excitedly ran up to us. Then we refrained from making a sound and reflexively held our breath.

“I want a doll!” barbarically.

“Jeez... If only we could disappear..” my murmur is getting panicked.

“We can't leave here, or we'll be spotted by his friend Rein,” Cassie replied.

“Means the only way we should use momentum,”.

“Momentum?” cassie asked confused.

“Wait a minute..” I said as I peeked with a vague look.

Now Rein is really behind us. There was no game box close enough to where we were. We don't want to have to hide on a different side. Fortunately, he immediately focused on playing the tuning without looking down and around. As his friends started to approach, I finally gave a sign.

“Now.”

Cassie and I shifted slowly towards a different side to all of them.

“Huft... Almost..” my blow is relieved while sitting on the floor.

“S—It seems like don't be happy early..” Cassie said with a look at a cleaning worker who was walking here. As the officer approached, we were seen sitting leaning against the game box.

“What are you guys doing—” asked the officer but I immediately cut him by hissing to tell him to be quiet.

“Sshh!”

Those who saw it from behind the glass were confused by what happened to the officer. His friend Rein who was very curious then stepped foot towards us. The officer looked at us who frantically demonstrated that he was stopping them.

“Is there anything?” ask one of them to the officer.

“Don't come here! I want to mop it up,” the toss.

“Oh sorry, sorry..” reply them and then extend the game.

Cassie and I breathed a sigh of relief despite not feeling completely safe. The officer helped us by pretending to mop around us. Those who continued to play the game did not stop because Rein had not gotten a doll.

“Quickly get... Do you have no luck at all?” mummy's upset.

“Ah shit! Falling again!” yelled Rein exasperated.

“Better we play another game..” reply his friend grinning.

“But I really want it,” Rein continued.

“Can we try it too?” the other sahut.

“Oh yes, so serious I forgot you guys... Hehe...”.

Then Rein gave his friends a chance to play it too, but of all the experiments none of them came to fruition. I who saw the watch was surprised to find out that we had been in hiding for over half an hour. The officer was tired of pretending. Moreover, he was afraid that they would be suspicious of him who kept mopping in the same place.

“Until when will we be here?” ask Cassie.

“Maybe it is not our day to play a game with luck,” said one of his friends.

“You guys play another game while I get this,” Rein replies.

“Not exciting if there's no you, Rein.”

“Do I need to ask for help with others?” continue with another friend. I couldn't stand it anymore and thought about getting out of here. Then there was a mask from the gift exchange rack. I called the officer with my hand and whispered to him.

“I need your help.”

“Finally! What can I help you with?”

“Can I borrow that mask?” my door.

“What will you use with that?”

“Later you will see it.”

“Alright, wait a minute. Hopefully allowed.” The officer walked to the reward exchange and spoke to another employee. I was so happy when he came back with the mask in his hand. Then he gave it to me.

“I will appear from behind you,” I said.

I stood up from behind him and walked up to them with the mask I was wearing.

“Wah, handsome once!” throw them.

“What's handsome of the mask?” reply Rein confusion.

“But look at her clothes and body, surely she is a model!”

“Thank you for your compliments. Can I try it?”

“Please...” said Rein smiled.

I tried to play the game with those who were very serious about watching me. I moved the claw and then pressed the button to reach it. They felt happy when the claw got the doll. Then with a serious full face they cheered at the stamp to fall in the right place. Sure enough, I managed to get a doll with a single try.

“Wah! You're so good at playing it,” lontar Rein is dazzled.

“I'm just lucky,” reply pringas-pringis.

“This is for you..”.

“Eh? Did ya? You sure?” rein said with a radiant face.

“Sure,” replied.

“Thank you very much! I won't forget it!”

“Can I know your name?” ask Rein curiously.

“I have to answer what?” mind confusion.

“Eee... You can call me Amard.

“Amard? Okay fine! Thank you, Amard?” excitedness thrown.

“Entah why suddenly crossed such a name in my head..” my mind is inexhaustible.

In the end I felt very relieved as they started walking away from us and saying goodbye sentences with me. I who had just turned back stalled back as they approached me again. Apparently they wanted to ask for a photo with me.

“By photos together?” pinta Rein's.

“Oh of course,” reply me.

“I don't want any longer..” I muttered in a overwhelmed heart.

A few moments later I separated from them. Seemed a sense of pleasure plastered on their faces, especially Rein who just got the doll he was after. I went back to Cassie and the officer who was watching me from the start. They were both giggled with laughter watching me play along with Rein and his friends.

“What are you laughing at?” many confusions.

“No... It's nothing..” reply Cassie. I turned the mask over to the janitor.

“Thank you... Do we need help something in return?” my spoken.

“No need.. The scenery was enough to comfort me,” he replied smiling. Then we parted with the officer who continued his work.

Time goes on and it doesn't feel like the day is getting late. We decided to go back to the dorm with our clothes in paper bags. Cassie hugged the doll we got at the mall. There was a lot going on today and our conversation wasn't over.

“I didn't think that we would also get this outfit for free,”.

“Iya.. Although it seems like I will reconsider before wearing it..” reply Cassie joked.

Arriving at the dormitory turned out all my friends had returned as well. I opened the door and saw Gavin and Rein talking about something. We who are tired then put the shoes in the corner of the dormitory and then walk to their respective rooms.

“How can you find a masked man inside the mall?” gavin asked inexhaustibly while looking at the photo on the screen of Rein's smartphone. Those of us who heard it were shocked to death and stopped stepping. I took a deep breath with a resigned face.

“God... I'm ready with all this..”.

“Gosh! I forgot that Adelard had a photo with Rein in that outfit!” cassie muttered in her heart.

“Wait, it looks like I also saw this outfit when I had lunch,” Gavin continued. We both slowly rushed to the room.

“By which way are you guys from?” rein asked then the two of them turned towards us. We were silent and turned to face them. The two of them gasped in surprise when they saw us in my clothes that were the same as Rein's photo.

“Loh? Adelard's? Cassie?”
