When I came down at lunchtime they were still there. Srisha and Sanskrit insisted I have lunch with them. I couldn't say no to them. I felt quite awkward being around these people. I learned that Srisha and Sanskrit were his childhood friends. They both were friends turned lovers I guess. And then there was Miss Ratna who was so touchy with him. She would talk about the time they spent together and about how their families are so close blah blah. I would feel his eyes on me time and again.

Actually Ellthan had known Wang Fen for a long time, they were business partners in the underground world. They couldn't get along but needed each other's help, that was Ellthan and Wang Fen. Maybe if others judged them like enemies but they were actually allies.

I asked him because everyone seemed to get quiet in here. "Uh..." He let out an awkward laugh before he regains himself and shifted back to me. "Well, that word is common here in Denmark.
