Chapter 13
Rina cooked their dinner. It was good that it made them full. They started to gather in the living room after some time to start working on their Project.
Silence enveloped them as they were all focussing on the task at hand. Rina and Andy sat beside each other, with laptops on their lap as they work on the same Project.
Erika on the other hand, work silently on her own. Rina would sometimes ask her some questions, suggestions and advices. Well, likewise, she too with Rina but never did to Andy. Erika and Andy never really had a proper conversation up until now.
Some time passed.
It was already 10:00 PM, Rina went to the kitchen for some tea.
"What?" Erika sarcastically asked. She noticed Andy kept on glancing at her.
"Well, can you help me with something?" Andy shyly requested.
"I have some failed Beam Designs here. I... I can't seem to to know where the problem lies." She explained.
Erika got up and sat beside her. She leaned closer to Andy to have a close look in the monitor. The sudden brushing of their arms gave Andy a shiver down her spine. She was holding her breath. Her heart seemed to jump out of her chest.
'The fuck with this...' She shouted in her thoughts.
But still, with great effort she managed to follow Erika's explanation and demo.
The night deepens, Rina took a glance at the clock in the wall, 1:00 AM.
"Let's stop here. We still have tomorrow." She said while yawning.
Erika stretched her back then close her laptop. Andy did the same.
"Shall I make you both tea before we retreat to bed?"
They both nodded.
Rina handed each a cup of tea and sat on the couch. Then something caught her eye.

"How about some music Andy? I bet those are not just for decorations." She's pointing to the instruments.
"Well, I'm not that good."
"We will decide for that." Rina said while winking at Erika.
Andy smiled. She placed her cup of tea on the table and went to the piano.
She pressed some random keys before really playing the full notes.
[ Love is a funny thing
It's making my blood flow with energy
And it's like an awakened dream
As what I've been wishing for, is happening
And it's right on time]
[Oh ain't it nice this life, we've got each other
And I am right beside you
More than just a partner or a lover
I'm your friend]
[When you love someone
Your heartbeat beats so loud
When you love someone
Your feet can't feel the ground]
[Shining stars all seem
To congregate around your face
When you love someone
When you love someone]
There was a gap of silence before hearing Rina clapping.
"You're giving me goosebumps." She complimented.
Andy just laugh then turned to look at Erika.
The look Andy gave her forced Erika to comment. She felt oblige to give one.
"You've got the voice. I think a Music Academy would suit you better." Erika said in monotone.
Andy did not know if she should be happy or not. She just wryly smiled while Rina laughed.
