after lockdown.

PART 1: "I'm an introvert, just so you know."

Syd: (holds her closer) What is it? I can tell when something's bothering you.

Rocky: Nothing I...I'm just worried about Max. I don't get it why I'm having this weird feeling like...like something's gonna happen. And it doesn't feel good.

Syd: Seriously, are you AG's lost sister when it comes to instincts? (chuckles softly)

---Rocky chuckles.

Syd: Hey don't worry too much. Nothing's gonna happen. Or if something does, we'll be here for him anyway. Okay? (Smiles)

Rocky: (smiles) Okay.

Syd: (giver her a smooch) Come here. (Embraces her)(groans) Ugh, I'm actually planning something tonight, but we got some company.

Rocky: (chuckles) Shush! Silly. (Hugs him tighter)

Syd: (laughs) I love you.

Rocky: (looks at him) I love you, too. (Kisses him)

---A couple of weeks after the wedding, the gang woke up to an early "loft assembly". The newlyweds are preparing some breakfast for them. Rocky's not around since she's out early for an important errand. When they were all complete in the dining area, Blake and Ally told them about the agenda: it's about Blake, still staying in the loft from time to time until they find a new home.

Yeo: (scoffs) Are you kidding? We don't even have a house rule that says 'you should move out once you get married'. Come on man. (Hits Blake's arm)

AG: It's a silly issue, but thanks for hosting today's breakfast. (Winks at them)

Hachi: *woof*!

Taylor: See? Even Hachi agrees.

Ally: Aww, thank you guys. You don't know how big of a favor this is. You know Blake could only stay in our apartment when I'm around because we're trying to be considerate of my two other housemates. And he said he'd be more comfortable living here with you guys when I'm on duty.

Blake: Yeah and that's like ¾ of the week since Ally's on graveyard shift till we don't know when, so. (Shrugs) We really appreciate it guys.

Syd: You know this will always be our home. So come on, let's enjoy Ally's breakfast treat.

Blake: Hey I had my fair share on preparing this!

Syd: That, I doubt. (Winks at Ally)

Blake: You j- (looks around) j-erky, beef JERKy!

---They all laughed. That afternoon, Rocky came home bringing someone. The kids left in the loft are Yeo, AG and Max who are still on 75% back to office setup.

Rocky: Hey you guys! Gather around, I want you to meet someone.

---The guys obeyed.

Rocky: My best friend just flew in from London and she's joining us for dinner. Everyone, meet AK. (Smiles) Sis, you know my cousin Yeohan.

Yeo: Ann Karoline in the house! (Hugs her) how are you?

AK: I'm awesome as always! (Chuckles) Nice to see you again, Yeo.

Rocky: This is Maxwell, call him Max for short. He's our youngest, but oh he's got a twin brother who you'll meet later.

AK: Hello there. Nice to meet you, Max. (Hugs)

Max: Hi AK. (Smiles)

Rocky: Sorry we have another hugger. (Chuckles) And of course, we got AG, the nicest housemate we got. AG, meet AK.
