Freen is looking around the crowd trying to find Faith. She is wondering where her dear friend went. Becky noticed that Freen is scanning the bar counter but Faye is not there so she also look around for more, she saw Faith holding hand of the younger girl in the dance floor area.

Oh! She is with someone.

Finally, P'Faith is opening up again.

"Are you looking for Faith?" Becky asked.

"Yes, you found her?"

Becky smile. She pointed to the crowd and Freen followed the direction. Then, Becky go back to her seats to rest abit. They had a long day today.

Freen saw Faith... but now, she alone in the dance floor as Yoko left her to approach Yuki.

"Huh? What is she doing there alone?" Freen said confused as she knows her friend will never go to dance floor alone.

Freen suddenly feels heartbroken to see her friend alone in the crowd.

"Alone?" Becky was confused with Freen's statement as she saw Faye with younger one. She look back at the dance floor and Faith is indeed alone. "I thought I saw her with..." She did not finish her sentence as she saw Yoko with someone else.

"Do you think it's time to set her up with one of our friends?" Freen asked.

Becky shook her head.

"I don't think we have to do that. I think she will meet her the one soon." She said with her eyes looking at Yoko. She has strong feelings with this girl... she look familiar somehow.

***

When they reached their table, Freen and Becky is already there. They are both smiling and welcoming to them.

"Thank you for coming Fayeee!" Freen said, excited to see her friend again.

They briefly hug and then Faye wave at Becky to say Hi.

"Thank you for supporting us."

"Of course! I will do anything for you two." Faith genuinely said and turn around to introduce Yoko to FreenBecky.

"Ah, by the way — Freen and Becky, this is Yoko and..." She look at the girl beside Yoko. "What is your name again?" Faith asked even though she remember her name.

"I'm Yuki." She answered politely and with a pleasant smile.

"Oh! Yuki and Yoko... your name matches." Freen commented to which Yuki smile wide.

"I know. I said that as well." She said with sparks in her eyes.

Freen and Becky looked at each other. Freen lean on her Nong and whisper, "Am I sensing some love vibes here?"

Becky smile and nod at her.

"Yes, I think there will be a love story in the making here at this moment." She replied in low tone as well.

They both giggled.

Unknowingly, Freen and Becky are rooting to completely different ship. Freen is rooting for Yuki x Yoko while Becky feels strongly about Faith x Yoko.

The night went on and Yoko is thankful that she invited Yuki in their table. Yuki is good conversationalist, she carry herself very well that Yoko did not had any problems to jive with her. They talked a lot and that distracted her for thinking about her first love that is just infront of her.

Faith did not interact much with them or to anyone at all, she just stay quiet in the corner of the table the whole time and enjoying her drinks. She enjoys her drinks too much that she is nearing her limit already. Yoko will glance at Faye from time to time, Nong is surprised that Phi did not 'party'...she is just there alone. There are few people that attempts to hit on her but Faye will just politely decline to them or completely ignore.

Is she lonely? Or sad?

"P'Faith..." She called her.

Yoko doesn't know why but she had this urge to tend to her Phi right at this moment even though she is in the middle of conversation with Yuki.

Faith looked up to her and smile.

"Yes? Why Nong?"

She suddenly doesn't know what to say. Yuki is also waiting for her to say something so she thought of it for a moment and finally asked, "What time is it? Do you want to go back to hotel?"

Faith looks confused at first and look at her watch.

"It's past 1am." She answered then smile. "Actually I'm thinking of going back to hotel. I think I'm drunk already. But it's okay, I think I can manage alone."

"No, we went here together so we will leave together as well."

"But how about your date?" Faith asked.

Yoko suddenly look at Yuki. She totally forgot Yuki's present.

"Ahm..." She is still finding her words when Yuki gave her a nod and a smile.

"It's okay, you can go." The girl is quick to catch on so she understood that Phi-Nong needs to leave together.

"I'm so sorry to cut this short but thank you so so much for tonight." Yoko said and made a wai gesture. "I enjoy the night so much because of you. Thank you for keeping me company."

Yuki smile upon hearing that.

"No, the pleasure is mine." Yuki said and pour one more shot to Yoko's glass. "There will be lantern festival around the area that I'm planning to go over the weekend. Would you like to come?"

Yoko did not think twice and nod her head as she pick up the glass for her last shot.

"Sure." She gulp the last shot and look at Faith. "We have to go now." She said and pick her Phi up from the sofa.

Yuki helped her as well but Yoko told her that she can handle it already so she respectfully back off.

"Okay. See you!"

***

Faith and Yoko is on their way out when Becky caught on them. Phi is drunk already so Nong is helping her with her balance.

"Heyyy!" Becky playfully called them up. "Where are you two going?"

"We are going back to our hotel." Yoko said casually but she instantly becomes defensive when she saw Becky's reaction. "Oh! No, no ... no... we are not together in one hotel room. We are just staying in the same hotel."

Becky nods but still look suspicious.

"Ah, I see. Where is your date?" She asked.

"She ditched her date for me." It was Faith who answered, with her drunken voice and gestures.

"No, I did not. Yuki is still with her friends inside." She explained.

"Oh, okay. Do you need help with P'Faith? Should I call Freen?" She asked.

"No, no need. I can handle." She said with smile as she lead Faith outside.

"Okay, careful." Becky said and tap Faith's back. "Take a shower or bath to sober up, okay?"

"Yes." Faith replied without turning her head to Becky.

Becky left at the door looking at Yoko and Faith.

Hmm... I think they are perfect match.

Becky's mischievous smile appeared. Then, she turn around and enter the club. She look around to look for Yuki. When she find Yuki's direction which is in the far left corner of the club, she scan the room once more...

She is looking for Yuki's match.

She took her time until she found a girl that she thought could match Yuki's energy.

"Hmm... Yuki, You don't have to waste your time with Yoko. I will find your perfect match." Becky said as she approach Yuki's perfect match.
