Sam walks towards Cyndi's room,
Sam: (clench his fist) Should I knock? What should I say when I see her? Maybe I should just knock first.
Just as he was going to knock, Cyndi opened the door. Sam fist almost knocked
Cyndi's forehead.
Cyndi: (dodge from Sam's fist) You're looking for me?
Sam: Yes. Busy?
Cyndi: Not really. Want to come in?
Sam: Ok.
Cyndi: So, what is that you want to say?
Sam: I... I... Umm... You and Zax....
Cyndi: Are just friends.
Sam: So, the two of you are not together at all?
Cyndi: No. We will remain friends. Now and forever.
Sam: Oh, I see.
Cyndi: Anything else?
Sam: [Why can't I just say it out? I like you!]
Cyndi: Anything else?
Sam Yes!
Cyndi: (waiting for him)
Sam: Umm.... There's something I want tell you all along. I ... I ... I LIKE YOU!
Cyndi: [Really? He likes me too? ]
Sam: So, do I have this chance?
Cyndi: (kissed him on the cheek)
Sam: (stunned)
After a few seconds,
Sam: Can I take that as a yes?
Cyndi: What do you think?
Sam: Can we not tell them?
Cyndi: Not again?
Sam: Let's just them find out themselves.
Cyndi: Do we have to hide when we see them like what Zax and I did the last time?
Sam: Come on. I won't say anything to them after I get back as if I failed. Let's
just fool around with them.
Cyndi: Ok. [Sigh, I can't believe I’m doing this again.]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zax: Ouch! Can't you be a little gentler?
Tony: That's serves you right, hiding such an important thing behind our backs.
Zax: I didn't really mean to.
Tony: Then? We known each other since we were kids and we grew up together.
Is there anything that we can't share?
Zax: it's not that. I don't even know why I want to hide it.
Tony: Weird.
Zax: I admit that. Ouch!
Tony: Can't you just bear with it a little? What kind of guy are you?
Zax: Why don't you try it? Sam punches with great force, especially when he is angry. Trust me, I have experienced that twelve years ago.
Tony: Because of that stupid frog trick?
Zax: you knew that very well and yet you still ask!
Tony: hehe.
Zax: You were part of that fight too!
Tony: Can't believe you still remember that.
Zax: that's how we know each other.
Tony: Yup.
Zax: I sure miss those days.
Tony: me too. There seem no worries back then. (Looking at the photo they once
Took in the orphanage)
Just then they heard Sam's room door opened and close.
Tony: he's back.
Sax: Do you think he has succeeded?
Tony: I think so. Let's go ask him.
Zax: What if he didn't? I don't want to get another punch from him.
Tony: I think that possibility is low. Let's go.
Zax: Ok.
They knocked Sam's door,
Sam: It's not lock. Come in. (trying hard to keep a straight face)
Tony: So?
Sam: What?
Tony: How did it go?
Sam: How did what go?
Zax: You and Cyndi?!
Sam: Oh, that. (Looking down)
Tony: (nudge Zax and whispers) What do you think that means?
Zax: (whispers back) I think it's an F.
Tony: (still whispering) I thought so too.
Sam: What is that whispering about?
Zax: Nothing. It's ok. There are plenty of chances later.
Sam: I hope so.
Tony: We will not bother you now.
Zax: We'll get going.
After they left.
Sam: (peeking from the window and started smiling) This is going to be fun.

The Life of Orphans - Chapter 36
The Life of Orphans
Chapter 36
Zax and Rainie are now together they often went off dating. Cyndi in the other side was too happy to know that Zax found someone to replace her, she doesn't even mind being left alone.
At Sam's workplace,
Sam: Thank you. (Handing a bag of sports item to a customer) Please come again.
Have a nice day.
After the customer left,
Worker (Rio): Hey, didn't your cute girlfriend come and visit you today?
Sam: She's not my girlfriend.
Rio: Oh, but the two of you look so nice together.
Sam: Nonsense, she already has a boyfriend and it's my one of my best friend.
Rio: I see. Well, treat me as a busybody but I can see that you like her in the way you treat her.
Sam: No way.
Rio: I noticed that you were hoping for her to come. If not, why did you look at
the door every time someone comes in?
Sam: Customers.
Rio: Come on. Well, I can't say much. You know yourself best.
Sam: [Maybe he's right. I do like Cyndi. But she's now with Zax. I just can wish
her.... Who's that?]
Zax and Rainie just walk past the sports equipment shop that Sam is working in
and they are holding hands!
Sam: It can't be. (Ran out for a closer look.)
Well, to his surprise. It is Zax and another girl holding hands close to each other.
Sam: (clench his fists) How can he do that? He's still with Cyndi!
Rio: Who are you looking at?
Sam: Uh? (Walk back into the shop) Nobody. Caught the wrong person. (By heart he really hoped that he caught the wrong person.)
After work,
Sam went to Cyndi's room,
Sam: (Knock the door)
Cyndi: Coming. (Opens the door) Sam? Back from work?
Sam: Yup. Can I come in?
Cyndi: Sure. Come on in.
Sam went in and sat on the chair while Cyndi sat on her bed,
Sam: So, what were you doing today?
Cyndi: Nothing much. I went and hang out at the shopping mall for almost the
whole afternoon.
Sam: Oh. Bought anything?
Cyndi: Naah. I was just window-shopping. Don't want to spend so much.
Sam: How are you with Zax?
Cyndi: What? (Surprised by that question) Umm... [I don't think he know about
Rainie and I think Zax didn't tell him anything either] Fine. Why did you ask?
Sam: Nothing much. Just wanted to know.
Cyndi: Oh, ok.
Sam: I'll go change now. See you later.
Cyndi: Ok. Bye.
On the way to his room, due to Zax's bad luck he met Zax.
Sam: Zax!
Zax: Oh. Hi, Sam.
Sam: Can I talk to you for a minute?
Zax: Ok.
Sam: Just wanted to know how are you and Cyndi going on?
Zax: Me and Cyndi? We are fine. Nothing happened.
Just then, Sam punched Zax on the face.
Zax: Ow! What was that for?
Sam: This is the second time I’m punching you. The first time is when you played that stupid trick on Cyndi. This time is that you are dating someone else while you are still having Cyndi as your girlfriend.
Zax: What?! [How did he know?]
Sam: You are going out with another girl behind Cyndi's back!
Tony passed by,
Tony: Wow! What happened?
Zax: ask him.
Sam: You know what you did!
Tony: Ok, ok. What ever happened, let's go inside and talk about it. (While
pushing the both of them into his room, he sms-ed Cyndi)
In Tony's room,
Tony: Ok, now. May I know what's the matter?
Zax: No idea. He started it.
Sam: You are the one who one did something wrong to Cyndi!
Tony: Cyndi? What did he do?
Sam: He's dating someone else.
Tony: What! How could you do that?!
Cyndi and Jason rushed in at the same time,
Jason: What happened?
Cyndi: Yeah, I rushed over as quickly as possible.
Tony: (Totally ignoring the arrival of the both of them) How can you do such a
thing? Especially to Cyndi?
Cyndi: Huh?
Sam: You can hurt anyone but not Cyndi. Don't you know that she's a load better than other girls?
Cyndi: (Although was puzzled but blushed a little after hearing that.)
Tony: Why aren't you explaining? Is it because what Sam said was right? You
really did date another girl behind Cyndi's back?
Cyndi: No, it's a mistake. You don't understand ...
Sam: I saw it with my very own eyes.
Cyndi: It's not what you see ...
Tony: You don't have to side him, Cyndi. After what he did to you.
Cyndi: No, listen ...
Sam: We'll teach him for you. I'll never let anyone make you unhappy.
Cyndi: WAIT! Listen to me! (everyone stopped and Zax was shaking his head) I'm sorry. I can't hold this any longer. Zax and I was a fake couple. We weren't together. We are faking the whole thing just to satisfy Zax's father who wants to see him have a girlfriend before he leaves.
Tony: What? You mean the both of you were not together?
Cyndi: No, we are not. Now and always.
Sam: (Felt really happy inside but still kept a straight face)
Jason: (Finally talking) That means you and Zax was always faking the whole
love business?
Cyndi: Yes and I did hint that. I always said that we were not what you guys
think but none of you listens to me.
Tony: It's because we thought you were shy to admit.
Jason: Why are you two faking it?
Zax: Sigh... I thought I could hide this forever. It’s my dad. You know why he is so eager for me to go back? He had cancer and not much time left. He said he
wanted to see my girlfriend so I plead Cyndi to help me.
Tony: Oh, I’m sorry.
Zax: It's ok. He's much better now. He even might get a chance to recover
completely.
Jason: Wow, that's good.
Cyndi: But he still doesn’t know the truth.
Tony: We'll help you plan something.
Cyndi: Really? Thanks a lot!
Tony: What are brothers for?
Cyndi: (Smiled)
Sam: Umm... Zax? ... Sorry for that. (Eyed zax's bruised left cheek)
Zax: It's ok. You were just helping Cyndi.
Cyndi blushed when hearing this. She took a short glance at Sam and found that he's looking at her too. The both of them turn away at the same time.
Cyndi: I... I have something to do. Got to go now. Bye.
Zax: Bye. (After Cyndi went out) Hey, (nudge Sam) she actually has nothing to do.
Sam: So?
Tony: I can see that you like her.
Zax: And now you know that me and her are not a couple. You should ...
Jason: Go for it!
Zax: Bingo! Jason always speaks the point.
Sam: (walked out)
Zax: She likes him too.
Tony: I know.
Jason: So?
Zax & Tony: Sigh.
Jason: Huh?
