Episode 3

Justin drove the car while Daniel sat beside him browsing on his phone. He looked at Justin who was not saying anything but concentrated on his driving. “Hey, what happened between the both of you back there?”Daniel asked looking at him. “What do you think happened between us? I bought something from the store When I was about paying her, I realized I was not with my wallet.”he said not looking at him. “Then you return the items you bought and go out”Daniel said looking confused. Justin looked at him and shook his head negatively.”you will say that. But I already opened a snack before she gave me the bill”he said. “That’s so complicated then”Daniel said. ” but that thing is so rude to and annoying. Can you believe she held me down just because of 50 dollars. And the funniest part of it was that she called me a thief thinking I want to prank her on that. In fact don’t let me think about it again, am so embarrassed”Justin said not looking at him. Daniel smiled looking at Justin. “Seriously its not funny “Justin said looking at him. “I know it’s not but the girl is so bold. And she’s pretty also”Daniel said smiling. “What? Pretty my a-s. She’s so ugly and evil. Don’t even say that to my face”Justin said looking at Daniel.
Few minutes later, they arrived at the airport. Justin packed the Camry at the packing lot and they both got down. A call came into his phone and he took it. He finished receiving the call and he brought down the phone from his ear looking sad. Daniel saw this and quickly moved closer to him. “Why? Whats the matter?”daniel asked looking worried. Justin looked at him ran his fingers through his hair”s–t”he said looking at him. “She left already. I tried my best to come early but this is all what happened just because of that evil girl. What should I do now? That would be next month again. I hate myself seriously. Why? Why am I always like this. I lost the chance to see her today also.”he lamented angrily almost in tears. Daniel looked at him in pity and patted him on his shoulder “sorry Bro. Don’t blame yourself for it and don’t blame anybody for it. It’s not anyone’s fault OK. You’ll see her next time, just take heart and let’s get going.”Daniel said looking at him.

Justin looked at him and nodded his head”that’s true. I can’t blame her for it. If I had not forgotten my wallet, I would have made it early. I made the first mistake let’s go.”he said opening the car door. Daniel went to seat beside him by the driver’s seat and he drove out of the parking lots.
