Mira had a plan.
A weird one.
An definitely-not-therapist-approved plan:
"I'm confused oh god." Lila sighs.
Because nothing says emotional clarity like emotionally confusing yourself more.
"You're going on a date... with me" Mira smirked.
"I have a plan i will wear some clothes like boys and mask up my face and i will act sometimes like Theo and Kai and their dialogues also and you'll see who you like Theo or Kai." Mira chuckle.
> "So basically it's very weird" Lila blinked.
> "Not that weird, girl" Mira laughs.

Scene: The mall.
They shared bubble tea, played arcade games, took selfies.
Lila was waiting for something. Some emotional sign. A "Kai would do this" moment. Or a "Theo would say that" déjà vu.
But what she got was...
Chaos.
But who knows theo and Kai and they will bumped into each other.
Both Kai and Theo was suprised with this coincidence and looks at Mira thought she was boy as her hair was hiding and she was wearing mask.
> Kai: "...Is this a date Lila? And who is this boy!?"
> Theo: "Why are you holding her stuffed penguin?" asked to Mira.
> Mira: "We caught."
> Lila: "Were experiment something." feels embrassed.
> Kai & Theo was speechless.
Lila panic-laughed. "It's fake! Not real! Just emotional data collection!"
Theo crossed his arms. "So you need a simulation to know how you feel?"
Kai raised an eyebrow. "Interesting strategy. Next time, try honesty."
And just like that, they left together arguing with each other.
While Mira and Lila stood there. Holding a penguin. Feeling like a certified idiot.
