Farah, I saw Anne's crush just now with a girl

Farah

5:53 pm

Khairi?

Raja

5:54 pm

Yup

At the High Mountain Mall

Farah

5:54 pm

Wait, how do you know and what are you doing there?

Raja

5:56 pm

I saw him walking and chatting side by side with that girl when I just finished buying some clothes

Shopping for some clothes, gurlll

That girl also seem familiar

Farah

5:59 pm

Seriously?

Oh, shopping

Familiar?

Raja

6:05 pm

I'm serious, bro

They were talking

Eh, no

They seemed to quarrel over something

She touched his hands even he already warned her

Yeah, she seems like Anne's classmate if I'm not mistaken

Farah

6:09 pm

You even know what they're talking about?

Pergh!(Wow!)

Do you have a picture of the girl?

I wanna know who

Raja

6:12 pm

No la, just from their expression and gesture

HAHAHAHAHA nonsense if I could hear what they talking about

We're quite far

I think... I have

Here

*a photo of Anne and her classmates*

Farah

6:14 pm

Wow, you still have her picture?

Uwu, livid but still care about her huh?

Wait!

I think I know her!

Anne once told us she's one of the popular girls in our faculty

I don't remember her name la

Hm...

Raja

6:16 pm

Hello, it's still in my gallery okay

I didn't delete some pictures

Cuz I'm lazy

No, I'm not!

Still mad okay!

I also don't remember

Popular girl eh?

Who woi who?

Farah

6:18 pm

She's... Anis weh Anis!

She's one of the girls that bullied Anne!

What a troublesome!

Khairi also the same didn't reply to Anne's confession

At least don't let Anne's confession just like that

Either yes or no

Easy

Raja

6:20 pm

Oh ya Allah, yes!

I forgot she's the one that LIKE bullying Anne A LOT

I always thought that Sabrina and Fatin were the ones

Maybe because the two always did the action but Anis with words

But still, they're barmy cows

Farah

6:21 pm

Yes, Anis is just kind to the opposite gender but when it comes to the same gender, she's picky and over

But from what I see the 3 of them are just the same

Why Anne only?

They didn't target the other classmates but Anne

Such poos

Raja

6.23 pm

Mak aih, gediknya this cow(so diva)

Anne is too nice

Why she didn't fight them back?!!

Anyway, I have to go

I'll reply to the other messages once I've reached home

Then, night came. Raja passed by Anne's house as it was near to the main street. She saw a guy in front of her house waiting for something. She does not know for what but he seemed to accompany her just now. She only saw her speak something to him thereupon went inside meanwhile he checked on his phone and subsequently walked outside. "I never saw him before. Who is he? Her cousin? I don't think so. The way Anne talked to him was somewhat awkward" She whispered.

"Wait, why do I care?" She added while rummaging her phone in the handbag. But then, she slowed down her car and stopped at the side of the street. "I think a few pictures might help. I mean maybe Farah know who he is. Does she?" She mumbled and stopped the engine. She then began to hop out, locked the car and walked to a huge tree where she could shelter under it as well as put herself out of his sight. She zoomed, clicked on the centre of the phone and carefully took some photos of him. "He looks suspicious. Unfamiliar person" She murmured, halting for a minute thereupon looked back and swiped all the photos. Some photos were acceptable but some were blurred.

On the other hand, he felt strange as he saw something was moving behind a tree on the side of the street. 'Not windy but why the branch is moving? An animal made it swing perhaps?' He thought, still looking at the tree. The taxi arrived not long after and drove away after he hopped into it. Raja finally went to her car, unlocked it and sent the acceptable photos to Farah all at once. She then entered, started the engine and drove back home peacefully.

Ariif father messaged him minutes later. There was an emergency matter and he needed him by tomorrow. He did not want to go back home for what his father did before he pursue his studies and his father was not 'normal' as his occupation was forbidden in Islam. But he has to. He did not want to be a rebellious child. His father still did the forbidden work till now despite what he already told and even exhorted him. He then pushed that thought away and raked in the pocket for his phone. He switched it on and hastily texted his roommate to inform him.

Ariif

8:37 pm

Salam, Khai

If Anne text you or comments anything tell me directly

And I'm not gonna sleep there tonight

Khairi

8:37 pm

Waalaikummussalam, I will bro don't worry

Ariif

8:39 pm

She told me what happened between her bffs yesterday

And I have to go back home for several days

My dad said there's an urgent matter

I've to help him and I just remember that forgot to bring some of my important documents

Khairi

8:39 pm

Why?

Oh, okay bro

Take care and don't forget what I told you

Ariif

8:40 pm

Fighting because of misunderstanding

She didn't tell me all but from what I heard it seems the worst ever occurred in her life

Okay bro

Khairi

8:41 pm

With her bffs?

I don't understand girls but maybe someone or something made them bicker like that

Attitude or grudge maybe?

If anything happens, roger

Ariif

8:43 pm

Yeah, the two

You know them?

Woo, how do you know?

Okay bro

Khairi

8:44 pm

'Anne was a bit funny earlier. Hahaha, I can't forget that moment' He recalled as he abruptly remembered what had happened when one of the three perverts got a chance to open the door on her side and the other two cooperated among them becoming a chain and pulling her legs with more force. She screamed the h*ll out of her life while kicking everywhere. The pervert leader(the one liking her lips) pulled her leg while she held onto the seat and head seat. Her lower body was already half on the outside. Feeling scared, she shouted his name. He pulled down the handbrake, right hand on the steering, moved the gear, stepped on the accelerator and grabbed her hand all at once.

"Grasp tight!" He yelled while looking around to avoid a collision. "I can't!" She replied. He reversed with no doubt and at the same time snatched her right hand. Like crazy to be precise. The leader started to lose the hold little by little. He prayed that she could hold onto it for some more time till the leader ceased tugging her. Yet she was exhausted and slipped one of her hands as she gave up. 'They were strong... I can't bear it anymore... Help me... Ariif' She thought.

She knew she could not fight with the three perverts. They were much tougher. "Anne! Don't!" He braked and made the leader slip his hold on her. He had time to promptly grab one of her hands and pull her in with all his might. The other two perverts instantaneously checked on their leader. They felt dissatisfied and raced to Ariif and Anne as they saw him helping her.

"Aargh!" He yelled, changing his position with sitting on the passenger chair. One hand was still pulling while another one moved to her armpit and made a hook from the back almost dragging her inside. "Anne! You nearly make it! Don't faint don't lose hope yet!" He used all his power to fully pull her and made it. At last! He pushed the handbrake, moved the gear and stomped on the accelerator. "Wait! I didn't close the door yet!" She raised her voice by accident as she forgot to close it and quickly pulled the hand compartment. Oh, God. What a day.

"Thanks... for... helping me..." She whispered while panting.

"No problem. Go take a rest. And ya, before I forgot, I'm sorry for hugging you earlier. I had to because I know you won't give me the key. You will ask me lots of questions and we will be doomed. They will get us for sure. Again, I'm sorry. Forgive me" He told while driving.

"Yeah..." She answered in an inaudible voice and subsequently fell into a deep slumber.

"Anne?" He called as he did not hear her answer. Eh, why she did not answer?

"Anne?" He called again. This time looked briefly on the left and sighed.

"Ah, she already asleep. Nevermind then. Goodnight... exquisite beauteous" He turned back on the road and soon, grinned. Feeling much better as he could spend a few hours with her even in chaos.

'She still looks beautiful when she's sleeping' He thought.
