(At Tasmia's house)

(Tasmia gets a call from Iyan)

Tasmia: Hello?

Iyan: Hey, Tasmia. It's Iyan. Can we meet up today?

Tasmia:  Sure, Iyan. Is everything okay?

Iyan: Yeah, I just want to talk to you about something. How about we meet at the café near your place?

Tasmia: Sounds good. What time?

Iyan: How about in an hour?

Tasmia: Perfect. I'll see you there.

Iyan: Great. See you soon.

Tasmia: *hangs up and thinks to herself* I wonder what he wants to talk about.

(At the Cafe)

(Zayan is having coffee with his friend)

Zayan's Friend: Hey, Zayan, what's up? You seem a bit distracted.

Zayan: Oh, it's nothing. Just thinking about something.

Zayan's Friend: About Tasmia?

Zayan: nervously* No, why would I be thinking about her?

Zayan's Friend: smirks* Because she's right over there with that guy.

Zayan: looks over and sees Tasmia with Iyan* Oh, I see.

Zayan's Friend: Are you feeling jealous?

Zayan: No, of course not. Why would I be jealous? They're just talking.

Zayan's Friend: *teasingly* Sure, Zayan. Whatever you say.

(On the other hand, Iyan confessing his feelings to Tasmia)

Iyan: "Actually, I've always liked you and I want to confess my love for you. I know that you also like me."

[Zayan listens, his expression darkening, and he pounds his hand on the table.]

Tasmia: *noticing Zayan* "Zayan, wait!"

[Zayan stands abruptly and leaves without a word, leaving Tasmia torn between following him and staying with Iyan. She chooses to chase after Zayan.]

Tasmia: "Zayan, please, why are you angry?"

Zayan: *brusquely* "I'm not angry. Why would I be angry? We're just a fake couple."

Tasmia: "It's not what you think. I didn't know he would propose to me."

Zayan: *frustrated* "Then why are you telling me this? What does it have to do with me?"

Tasmia: "Because I care for you."

[Zayan's eyes widen in disbelief.]

Zayan: "What?"

Tasmia: "We... we're in a fake relationship, but can't I care for you as a... friend?"
