After Novie drops the triplets at their school, she decided to stroll around the mall and look after the sofa-bed.

She parked the car in the parking space and locked it. As she walks towards the entrance, she noticed a familiar face entering the mall.

Her eyes narrowed to make sure that she got the right person and when she realized it to be Saina, she shouted her name which made everyone in the parking space to look at her direction.

Her cheeks burn in embarrassment, she gulped and composes her body while walking to Saina.

"Hi, what are you doing it?" Saina asked after giving her a warm hug.

"I need to buy a sofa bed. What about you?" Novie was surprised when Saina wraps a hand around her arm.

(Are we close?) she asked herself.

"I am going to buy a cushion, maybe we can shop together" after hearing that, Novie suddenly remembers her promise to Daniella, a light bulb switched on in her head and a sweet smile plastered on her lips.

"Sure, maybe later we can have some snack" they both agreed and proceed to the Home and Garden section.

Both Saina and Novie keeps on pointing at all the sofas and cushions their eyes laid on. After an hour of walking around, their legs paralyzed which made them decides to take a break.

They went to the first cafe they saw, after ordering, they agree to occupy the table next to the escalator.

"Did you change your engagement ring?" Saina asked while staring at her finger.

Then, Novie realized that she hasn't told Saina the news.

"Yes. Ken proposed to me again and this time his mom and my family were in there" she spoke with excitement while her eyes sparkled.

"Really? that's so sweet, what about your previous ring?" Novie lifted her eyes to look at Saina.

"Ken threw it" she replied short. When she saw Saina frowning, she understood that there might be something wrong.

"What is it?" she asked with her brows creased in confusion.

Saina smiled awkwardly.

"It's just strange for Ken to throw it. I was watching Daniella when she was making it. She had blisters for weeks because of that" those words shocked Novie, Ken never mentioned anything about the ring and now that they threw it, she somehow feels guilty.

She sighed and called her name.

"Saina" she spoke in a soft tone, the woman looked at her while sipping her coffee slowly.

"About Daniella" she continued. The woman paused and she saw her frowning.

"What about her" Saina replied and her lips parted to drink her coffee.

"Did you know that the night you broke up with Danny, if he didn't leave, Daniella and Evan would have been dead" Novie lowered her face, she knows it's not her business so she went straight to her point.

She doesn't know Saina so much, she wants to be upfront and tell her the reason why she shops with her.

When she felt a hot liquid dripping from the table, her face lifted and saw their table flooded with coffee while Saina's glass rolled on the table and when it landed on the floor, the sound of a shattered glass made the other customer to look at them.

Novie parted her lips and shifted her sight at Saina only to find the woman staring at her with her eyes widened in shock.

"What did you say?" Saina strumbled.

"The reason why Danny chose Daniella was because that night they were ambushed. Danny couldn't inform you right away because they went hiding while waiting for Evan's wound to heal"

There was a shock in Saina's face, but the gloom Novie's saw in her eyes made her feel her distress. The woman was still not moving, even after the waiter came to wipe the table and ask if they need assistance, Saina didn't move.

"You all right?" Novie shook Saina's shoulder. The woman blinked and all the guilt that was transformed into tears fell from her eyes.

"I-I need to see him" Saina got up and ran without taking her bag with her.

Novie immediately rn after her after taking her bag, when she caught up with her, the woman was crossing the pedestrian lane even with the red light.

She quickly ran to her direction while people around were chattering about a woman walking absently, Novie got pissed with the people around, instead of helping a stranger, they started taking a video and wait until a car will hit Saina.

Finally, she got close to her. Novie grabbed Saina's hand and pulled her body to avoid the oncoming car.

When she felt Saina's weight, they both fell to the ground. She laughed at the embarrassment and looked at Saina.

Suddenly, her smile faded after seeing Saina's face.

Her eyes sparkled in guilt while her brows creased, Novie took her arm and helped her to get up.

"Let me take you to my car" she leads the way while holding her arms, she's afraid that if she let her go, the woman might kill herself.

When they get in the car, Novie helped Saina to put her seatbelt on and drive to Ken's office where Danny was.

"Do you want to see him?" Novie asked In concern.

Saina's body smelled of a coffee while her makeup mixed with her tear.

The woman shook her head, "I don't know" she replied in a broken voice.

Novie sighed and remember the day she saw Saina slapping Danny in the face.

"When we went to the restaurant. Why- did you slap Danny?" she asked.

Saina buried her face to her hand and cried, her loud weep bounced around the car and every tear she released made her realized that the woman must be feeling guilty now.

"I asked him if he regretted his decision that night. I didn't know..." she spoke in a weak voice while her shoulder shook in agony.

Novie let Saina cry all her emotion, she doesn't know but she and Saina were same, they didn't trust them and judge them without knowing the truth and the result, they all got hurt.

They stayed for as long as she can remember and let Saina cry when the woman finally calmed down, Novie took the tissue from her bag and passed it to her.

While Saina wipes her tears away, Novie gave her advice.

"It's not too late Saina. I can help you" Novie comforted her.

Saina looked at her in surprise, "Really?" Novie nodded and smiled.

"I will get Danny to come down here" saying that, Novie left the car, she figured that Saina wouldn't want the employee to see her red eyes so she decided to ask Danny to come down.

When she reached the floor, she walked to Ken and Danny's office.

"Danny Saina is waiting for you in my car" she spoke while opening the door. She was about to throw the key she had in her hand to Danny when she noticed the woman sitting on the couch and busy arranging the food on the table.

(Is she Donna?) she asked herself. She had never seen the woman, only in the picture which was edited but the woman in front was nothing compare to the picture.

Her soft face and the sweet smile on her lips was making Ken's office brightened.

Novie sized her up and disappointment flushed in her face.

(big boobs) she exclaimed and look at her own asset.

Her senses only came back when someone took the key from her hand and slammed the door. Then, she looked at Ken who just came out of the restroom shirtless.

When their eyes met, Novie wanted to cry, she knows the story about Donna and Ken and even her find it so sweet. But seeing Donna closer made her realized their difference.

In the other side, Ken's shirt got wet after the faucet in the bathroom sink broke down, he removed his clothes and went out to get a new one but he was surprised to see Novie standing next to his desk while switching her eyes between him and Donna.

His eyes widened when he realized that Novie must have misunderstood the situation.

"Novie," he walked closer to her at a slow pace, afraid that she might run.

"This is not what you think. She and I, we are not, really I am not cheating" he doesn't know how to explain himself. He and Donna were friends and he barely smiles at her but the face Novie had was making his knee trembles.

"Danny… She's here for Danny and not me" when he finally reached her, Ken took her hand and lowered his face to her.

"Do you believe me?" he asked in a soft voice.

"You mean she and Danny? Damn it!" Novie suddenly curses and rushed out of his office, but minutes later she came back and grabbed his hand.

"I forgot you" Ken almost lost his balance when Novie dragged him out of his office and dashed into the elevator.
