She bought four packs of Bread Pan of different flavors and an empty tetra pack of orange juice. Via was about to feel the excitement that there is someone again to talk to and then, she remembered she had read her friend's diary. "What did you do the whole time? Did you sit there in silence?" Erika asked as she sat on her armchair. "I think you know me well." Via wanted to express her feelings yet was afraid that it would tarnish her image. "I took a long time because I met Angela halfway. We almost talked behind your back." Erika laughed as she made the joke. However, Via was not happy about it. Via faked a smile towards the statement as her response. It did not bring any suspicion to her friend. A second of silence passed; both of them felt it too awkward.

They were still at the library when Erika disturbed the focus of her friend. "Do you have any watch?" Via had regained her sense of the present time. Still, she continued her observation on the works of Angela. "What for?" "I want to know if it is recess time already," Erika answered. "I'm sure there is one here in the library," Via responded with no interest in her tone of voice.

The motivation within herself had increased, the annoyance towards her parents grew up. She wanted to make a statement, one that would prove herself capable of talent and intelligence. She went to exit through the side door in the carport to prevent being noticed by her parents. After a short while, both of her parents had entered the house. Her father had gone to the master's bedroom while her mother stayed in the living room. "Via, get here. I will tell you something." Her mother said while she sat on the couch. Via heard the statement. She stayed still and quiet at the carport to avoid her mother's presence. When she noticed her mother took steps further from where she hid, she quickly and silently rushed to the gate. She did not attempt to pass through it yet. A few minutes next, both of her parents began to have words indistinct to her. It was this time that her parents discovered that she was missing.
