After Thorin dropped her off at college, Zi Mei stomped in. She is in an inexplicable bad mood. Actually, it wasn't all that inexplicable. It was all due to the old dragon's reluctance to admit that they have a relationship. She had pushed him on it and he had insisted they only have a contract.She scowled at the thought.

Will it kill him to say that they are lovers? She stormed into class and could barely pay attention. This was her favourite class too but her mind was elsewhere. Having Thorin stay over last night had distracted her. She didn't even realise her lecturer was calling on her until a classmate tapped her on her shoulder.

She quickly apologised but couldn't answer the question the lecturer had directed at her. She didn't even know what the lecturer had asked. He looked at her in disappointment and moved on. She hangs her head in shame. Maybe she should not be thinking about Thorin. Not while in class. But tried as she might, the rest of her day was ruined. She couldn't get the old dragon out of her mind. The worst part of it was that Darren was also avoiding her. They didn't have the same classes that day but during lunch break, she couldn't find him anywhere. They usually hang out during lunch and chatted while they eat. This time she sat alone and ate alone. She has made a few friends in college but she was in a bad mood so she didn't seek her new friends.

By the time classes are over, Zi Mei trudged back home, still in a foul mood. She has had a whole day mulling over the non-relationship she has with Thorin. So, she's just his contractual baby maker. She has to come to terms with that. They are not in any relationship. He may be sweet and caring and even loving sometimes, but now she is certain that it is all a show. He is just using her to have his children. As stated in the contract she signed. She is nothing but a contracted baby maker.

When she entered her house, she could feel something was amiss. Something was different but she couldn't put her finger on it. Everything looked the same. The furniture are in its usual place. Her house is as neat as she had left it this morning. But something is different about it. She went around her living room, checking on everything but couldn't find it. She suddenly felt creeped out. Little hairs on her back and arms stood up.

"Lim? Are you here?" she called. The man didn't appear. What's going on? Isn't he supposed to answer to her call?

"Lim??" she called louder. She rubbed her arms. She is now shivering. Fear snaked down her back. She dared not go upstairs to check. What if someone is lurking upstairs waiting for her? She waited a moment more but Lim did not appear.

"That's it, I am getting out of here," she mumbled. She picked up her handbag and quickly walked out the door, closing it behind her.

Now what? She's scared of being inside her own home. It just felt so wrong inside. All her sixth sense was screaming at her to leave.

"Thorin? Please come!" she called as she hurriedly walked as far away from her house as possible.

"Thorin! I really need you!" she said louder. People walking pass her turned to look at her but she ignored them. Even though it's broad daylight, she is still scared. She didn't know where to go. She took out her phone and called Sheena. She didn't pick up. She tried Jazzmine. She didn't pick up either. She braced herself and called Darren. He picked up after a few rings.

"What is it Mei? I have nothing to say to you," he said.

"No, Darren, I'm scared, I think someone broke into my house," she swallowed her pride and told him.

"What? Where are you?"

"I'm outside, I left immediately, I'm walking around on my own down my street," she said.

"Just get to somewhere with people and call the police," Darren told her. "Where's Thorin? Why didn't you call him?"

She wanted to slap herself. She has Thorin's number. She has Jessica's number. She could have tried calling them on their phone. She was so used to calling on Lim and him appearing immediately that she forgot about using the phone to call them.

"I tried…he didn't answer," she lied.

"Well, get to somewhere with crowd, maybe a cafe or something and I'll meet you there," he told her. Darren was pissed at her earlier today but he still cared enough to be there for her. She was glad for that.

She wondered where was Lim and Thorin. Why didn't they answer her?

After she ended the call with Darren, she dialled Thorin's number. There was no answer. Then she tried Jessica. There was no answer too.

What was going on? Where is everyone?

She found a crowded cafe and entered it. She found an empty table and sat down. Then she texted Darren the cafe's name and waited. It took him about 20 minutes to arrive. He appeared flustered when he entered and search for her among the crowd. When he spotted her, he went over to her.

"So, have you called the police?" he asked.

"No, I…I'm not sure if there really are people inside my house, it was just a feeling," she said.

"A feeling?" Darren looked confused.

"You know, sort of like a sixth sense…I felt something off about my house the moment I entered it so I practically ran out," she told him.

"So, you didn't see or hear anything? Was everything a mess?"

"No, everything was neat and tidy just like the way it was when I left this morning," she said.

Darren looked concerned and confused now.

"Mei, are you alright?" he asked.

"No, I am not, I am freaking out as you would have noticed!" she replied.

"No, I mean…not about the supposed break in, I mean, you, are you okay? Did you have a fight with Thorin?" he asked.

A tear slid down her cheek. They didn't have a fight but the fact that Thorin didn't even acknowledge their connection hurts her. It felt like he had stabbed her. Sliced open her heart.

"Not exactly a fight…" she mumbled.

"What did he do to you? Did he break up with you?"

"No, no…he…we…it's complicated," she finally said. She didn't even know how to start or what to confide in Darren. She couldn't talk about the contract.

Darren sighed.

"Mei…he's a married man…maybe you should reconsider your relationship with him," he said.

"No, it's not that, Darren, it's…I don't know how to say this…it's like, he doesn't have any feelings for me," she blurted out.

"Then why are you with him? Leave him," Darren said.

He took her hands.

"I don't care about your debts or that you slept with him, but I can take care of you Mei, just give me a chance," he said.

Zi Mei pulled her hands free.. What has she done?!? What has Darren done?!? Why did he have to choose this moment to confess? Her heart is already in too much of a turmoil at this moment.
