In a large office, Kofi notices that there is a surprise goodbye party planned for Sayuri, who is relocating to a different country. Kofi is aware that Sayuri has no idea about the party. Eunji, who planned the party, asks Kofi to distract Sayuri until the party is ready. As Kofi starts a conversation with Sayuri, Jamal, who does not know about the party, tells Sayuri that he heard a rumor about a surprise event for someone at the office. Sayuri then questions Kofi about this rumor. Meanwhile, Lakshmi, who knows about the party and sees Jamal speaking with Sayuri, quickly interrupts and takes Jamal away for a pretend urgent discussion. What does Sayuri think is happening, and how does she perceive Kofi's involvement? Provide a brief response.
Sayuri is likely confused by the unfolding events. She does not know about the surprise party, so when Jamal mentions a rumor about a surprise event, she may suspect that something out of the ordinary is being planned. However, she does not have enough information to conclude that it is a party, nor that it is for her. When Kofi starts a conversation with her, she may initially think Kofi is just engaging in regular office small talk, but after Jamal's interruption and mention of a surprise event, she may begin to suspect that Kofi is trying to keep her occupied or distracted. Sayuri's suspicion might grow due to Kofi's behavior after Jamal's comment and even more so after Lakshmi's abrupt intervention to take Jamal away. She may perceive Kofi's involvement as not entirely coincidental, and might think that Kofi could be part of whatever is being planned, but without direct evidence or confirmation, Sayuri is left in a state of uncertainty about both the event and Kofi's role in it.
