"What does this mean ?" Ting ask Della and hand over the phone . "Oh this mean ...." Della didn't finish he sentence and look at Ting . "What ?" Ting ask . "This means that the person that texting you already block you ." Della answer . "What do you mean ?! I didn't do anything illegal why did i get blocked !!!" Ting yelled . "I will report this to my father and sue this app ." Della look at her and say "Stop being a brat . You're 24 already .''

Ting sit down and sigh . ''She's cute and she also say that I'm attractive but why did she block me ? '' She lay back and sigh more . ''At least we still have this DundunMax ... maybe he can help you ." Della say . Ting ignore her words and close her eyes . "Because she don't like you . " Della say and stand up .

''Then how do I make she like me ? '' Ting ask . "Well become friends and then boom " Della say "But we never know the outcome , sometimes it comes out good and not good ." Della continue her words . Ting sit there with confusion "What you mean by that ?" Della look at her . "You were never serious about love , just forget about this already."

Ting rolled her eyes and sigh once again . "That coffee shop owner also wouldn't help me .'' Ting say . "I already tell him that I want to date her but he say no and then I say if he didn't help me out I will destroy his shop . as a joke then he hung up" Ting continue . "When I called Pearl , I can't talk because I'm too nervous ..." And then she sigh again .

"What did you say ?? A joke ??" Della look at Ting . "Can .. can I know what tone did you apply when you say that sentence please ?" Della ask her . "My usual voice ." Ting answer . "No no I mean how . like .. repeat those to me . Pretend me as the shop owner ." Della say . "Oh , If you won't help me I will make sure that you coffee shop went down hill and never come back up ." In a scary tone and serious tone .

Della facepalm herself and say "Are you a psychopath ?! Why would you use that to please someone ?!" Ting raise her eyebrow and look at Della . "That is not how you please people to help you.. You make it sound like a threat !!" Della pinch Ting a bit . "It can't be that harsh . After all I use that tone every time I need something from Dad and Mom ."

Della look at Ting with disbelief . "How about you record yourself while saying that sentence . And then tell me what you think about that" Della hands her phone to Ting and Ting repeat the sentence and record . Done recording she listen to that record .

"I messed up !!!!!" Ting say .
