Zi Mei doesn't know how long she sat there waiting for Thorin Loong to wake up but after a while, she got really bored so she went exploring his house again. She went back to the library to see if there is a computer there for her to use. There was none.

She walked all around again, looking for a way out. She opened every door she came to only to find herself either at the bathroom, back in the living room, the library or the long corridor leading to the gardens. It felt as if she was going round and round in a circle. 

"Can't I just go home from here? I remembered he brought me here through one of the doors directly from my house," she muttered to herself. She went over to the front door and hoped, crossed her fingers and hoped, that it would open up to her house. 

She held on the handle and pulled the door open. It took her a moment to register what she saw. The chaise lounge. The large screen TV. The coffee table. The sunlight streaming in the skylight. This was her living room! 

"Yessss!!!!!" she couldn't help cheering. She went through the door right back into her living room, leaving the door open. The door is right on an empty wall in her living room, which is kind of weird and yet, strangely, it looked like it belonged right there. 

Not wasting any time, she ran upstairs to the guest room in search of Sheena and Jazzmine. She flung the door open and ran inside. The bed is neatly made and empty. She looked around the room. Everything is clean and neat as if untouched. 

"That's strange," she thought. She left the room and went into her bedroom. It was also empty and her bed was also neatly made. That was even weirder. She remembered clearly that she didn't make her bed at all. She checked her bathroom just to be sure. It was clean and empty too. 

It doesn't matter. Since her phone is again broken, she will need to use her computer to try to contact her friends on messaging apps on social media. She took out her laptop and turned it on. Then she launched her social media accounts. She sent messages to both Jazzmine and Sheena, hoping both of them are fine. 

"Hi Jazzy, are you okay? My phone is broken, I have not gotten a replacement yet, so I am messaging you here first," she typed. 

She sent a similar message to Sheena. 

She stared at the screen, willing either of them to reply. A few minutes passed and she started to worry. Maybe something happened to them? What if the demon came to get them after Thorin was injured? She wouldn't put it pass the demon. 

"I was wondering why I couldn't get you! We must have been so out of it that night, I don't even know how I got home but we were worried about you. Glad that you are okay," Sheena replied her. 

Zi Mei stared at the date and time. It has been a few days since they had a girl's gathering where Darren turned into a demon. She was sure it has only been a day over at Thorin's place. How could it have been a few days already? 

"So, uh, how's Darren?" she asked tentatively. 

"Darren? Why are you asking me? Isn't he your bff?" Sheena replied. 

Wait. What is going on? Did Sheena have a fight with Darren? It also appeared that she has no memory of the demon that looked like Darren. 

"Did you guys get into a fight?" she asked Sheena.

"Fight? What are you talking about? I'm not that close to him at all," Sheena replied. 

Zi Mei is so puzzled, she stared at the screen and read the message again. What is going on? Aren't Sheena and the real Darren dating? Or was it all an illusion created by the demon? She is so confused. 

"Hey! We were so worried about you! You went silent for a few days and according to Darren, you didn't even show up at college yesterday," Jazzmine replied her in another window. 

So, Jazzmine has been in contact with Darren. Zi Mei wondered if this is the real human Darren or the demon. How will she know? There was nothing to differentiate between the demon that looked like Darren from the real Darren. Unless the demon decides to reveal itself. 

"Oh, you've been in contact with Darren?" she asked Jazzmine.

"What's the deal with Darren anyway?" Sheena's message popped up. 

"Mei! Finally you are online!" another message popped up and this is from Darren's account. 

Zi Mei stared at it. Should she reply? An image of the demon that looked like Darren came to mind and she shivered. 

"What happened to you? Where did you go? Is it your father?" Darren asked. 

She stared at it. Should she reply? 

"Aren't you and Darren dating? I thought you guys hooked up?" Zi Mei replied Sheena instead. She needed to know what's going on first. 

"WHAT??? Are you insane?!?" Sheena replied with a shocked face emoji. She sent a gif of a man getting a heart attack and falling over. 

"Since when did I hook up with the boring Darren?? Don't tell me he told you that?" Sheena continued.

Okay, so it would seem that the whole Darren and Sheena dating thing was something made up by the demon and now that the demon is supposedly gone, so the illusion is gone. At least that is what she assumed happened. So perhaps this Darren messaging her is the real Darren. 

"Hey Darren, did you hook up with Sheena?" she typed to Darren. 

"WHAT?? NO!" he replied. "Don't be ridiculous! I like you, Mei, YOU!" 

Zi Mei stared at her screen. Did she just make Darren confess to her on a social media messaging platform? 

"We are best friends, Darren, of course you like me, I like you too," she replied. 

"You couldn't get Darren? He was frantically looking fo you," Jazzmine's message popped up. 

"Yep, he just sent me a message," Zi Mei replied Jazzmine. 

"You know, you guys should just start dating, it is painful to watch all the longing in his eyes and you behaving all shy and unsure," Jazzmine replied. 

"Hey, wait a minute! Darren has a thing for you…did you guys hook up and now you are trying to pretend that it didn't happen?" Sheena's message came up.

Zi Mei stopped typing. She felt as if she is in an alternate reality. It felt so surreal. So, now it would seem that Darren has feelings for her and not Sheena. How could things change so much here?

She created a chat room and added all three of her friends into it.

"Hey guys, I was getting dizzy trying to message each of you separately so I figured we might as well do it in this group chat," she typed.

"Hey everyone! Should we all agree that Zi Mei has a lot of explaining to do because she's been missing for several days?" Sheena typed. 

"Yes, Mei, we were so worried," this came from Darren. 

"What's important is that at least she is now chatting with us, safe and sound," Jazzmine typed.

"Wait. Why couldn't we contact you?" this is from Darren. Zi Mei has not told him about her broken phone. 

"My phone broke. Again. So I am without a phone yet again, this is why I have to resort to this web messaging app," she replied. 

"Again? How many times did you break your phone?" Darren asked. 

"Twice. And I hope the second time is the last time. I will go get a new one in a short while," she typed. 

"So, any word from your dad?" this is from Jazzmine. 

Zi Mei isn't sure what her friends knew and what they didn't know. She also wasn't sure if this is the real Darren or the demon Darren. And if this is the real Darren, how much can he remember? At what point did the demon takeover? 

"So, Darren, I need to borrow some class notes from you…can you share some?" she typed. 

"?? Mei? Did you forget? I took a two -month break and just went back yesterday," Darren replied. 

Two months. This might meant that the demon has been pretending to be Darren for two months. What about the time she was supposedly with Thorin Loong? How long ago was that? How long was she with him? She looked at the year. It is 2021. She is still 21. 

So maybe she wasn't with Thorin Loong for long. She couldn't have been with him, gotten pregnant and delivered babies within months. Unless dragon babies are born within weeks. She is getting a headache trying to figure all this out. She will need to draw out a timeline to figure this out. 

"Hey, Mei, mind telling us what's going on?" Darren typed. 

"Yeah, why the sudden disappearance?" Sheena asked. 

"Oh ah…I had to get away…you know, loansharks," Zi Mei typed the only thing she can think of. Telling them about Thorin Loong and the dragons and the supposed contract will be risky. They will think she's insane. 

"Ugh. Again?" Sheena typed.

"Poor Mei," Jazzmine typed.

"Mei, maybe you should move out? Rent a place further away?" this is from Darren.
