On their way back to the villa

Marima: Char have you seen Heidi's Line message?
Charlotte: no not yet. What did she say?
Marima: she has a 6hr layover here in Bali and she's asking if we could have dinner together.
Charlotte: what time is her flight back
Marima: around midnight I think.
Charlotte: that's fine. We can dropped her off at the airport after dinner.
Marima: actually she's asking if we could also pick her up at the airport cause I can't give her the proper directions going to our villa.
Engfa: Nudee can book a car for you if you want to pick up your friend. Actually I wanted to offer my car but if the 2 of you will pick her up. She wouldn't have any place to sit.
Charlotte: you mean the grey Ferrari you were driving the other day?
Engfa: yup that one.
Charlotte: I could just pick her up myself. Marima would mind right?
Marima: what?
Charlotte: I'll bring her back safe. I promised.
Marima: you mean Heidi or the car?
Charlotte: both.

Charlotte picked up Heidi from the airport and returned to their villa safely

Chompu: hey kid. How's your flight.
Heidi: it was fun and tiring at the same time.
Beauty: oh my goodness it's been a while since we last saw you. 🫂
Mari: maybe they were only high school students back then. 🫂
Beauty: you look so handsome.
Heidi: thank you P'Beauty. Wait is this Malaika? 🫂
Marima: she's also working in the same company.
Heidi: oh my goodness. I feel old.
Mari: hey don't say that.
Heidi: oh ok haha.
Malaika: P'Heidi this is my girlfriend. Nudee
Heidi: ph really. You two are dating....
hi. Great seeing you again. You're P'Chompu secretary right?
Nudee: not anymore. I have a new boss
Tina: that would be my job now. Hi I'm Tina. Khun Chompu's secretary.
Heidi: hi nice to meet you. You're pretty by the way.
Tina: thanks.
Marima: ok that's enough. You're starting to do it again.
Heidi: what?
Nudee: actually my new boss owns the car that Khun Charlotte drived to pick you up at the airport.
Heidi: oh really? Where is he I want to meet him so I can thank him personally.
Charlotte: she's in a meeting right now. You can meet her later during dinner.
Heidi: wait... she? Uhm ok. So you know her schedule? Are you also her secretary? Or her girlfriend?

Everyone was silent for a second.

Heidi: oh ok. Dinner's gonna be interesting.
Charlotte: please don't
Heidi: don't what?
Marima: just behave please. She's our boss. She's the president's daughter.
Heidi: oh Charlotte did good.
Charlotte: she's not my girlfriend ok?
Heidi: ok fine. Anyways Tina can I get your number later?
Tina: uhm ok.

During dinner
Heidi: hi. I'm Heidi. Charlotte's bestfriend since grade school and also her ex girlfriend.
Charlotte: what? No!
Heidi: just kidding she didn't accept my proposal back then. But we really go way back.
Engfa: hi nice to meet you Heidi. I'm Engfa, Charlotte's....

Everyone was waiting.

Engfa: boss
Heidi: thank you for letting her drive your car just to pick me up.
Engfa: no problem.
Chompu: Dinner's here. Tina can you pick up the food from the lobby.
Engfa: oh you had it delivered? I thought Nudee arranged something.
Nudee: Khun Charlotte wanted Indian food from the store at the mall earlier so we just called in.
Engfa: oh ok.
Nudee: would you like something else for dinner?

Chompu: who wants to go clubbing tonight?
Heidi: passed. I have a flight to catch.
Tina: I'll go
Charlotte: if my roommates going. Then I'll also go.
Nudee: ok I'll come too.
Malaika: me too
Beauty: passed. I still need to rest.
Malaika: but...you'll be left alone
Mari: don't worry. I'll look after your sister. Go ahead and have fun.
Charlotte: Marima?
Marima: I'll take Heidi to the airport
Charlotte: oh right.
Heidi: you don't have to. I can just take a cab.
Marima: nope. I'm taking you to the airport.
Heidi: ok fine if you say so.

Everyone is now waiting for Engfa.

Engfa: oh... yeah I'll have to passed also. I have a meeting later.
Charlotte: meeting this late?
Engfa: they're from overseas so I need to adjust.
Charlotte: oh ok.

Charlotte was a bit disappointed. This trip was supposed to be a vacation for Engfa since it is her birthday. But all she ever did was take calls and have meetings.

While at the club partying. Nudee got a message from Engfa. Asking if she can buy her a sour mango. She's sleepy and the meeting is not even half way done. She needs something to wake her up.

Nudee: where do I find a sour mango at this time of night.
Charlotte: what?
Nudee: boss wants a sour mango
Charlotte: i have some with me back at the villa. I bought it earlier.
Nudee: may I have some. I promised I'll replace it tomorrow.
Charlotte: yeah sure no worries.
