Since Pavel is one of a hell big guy. We spent too much time and effort putting him on Dome's passenger seat.

Joong on the other hand was a big help. He's also a big guy, together with Benjamin who didn't say a word since I entered the pub was able to put a big guy like Pavel in Dome's car.

Earth was a little sleepy rather than concerned with Pavel's well being. He's been clingy with me since he and Ben didn't talked. I wonder if they even greeted each other when I wasn't here.

He's yawning but we're too prideful to utter a single word at Ben. I want roll my eyes at them but choose not too. I bet, the reason they argued was merely a petty reason.

Can you blame me? They didn't talk for a week just because Benjamin didn't like their puppy to be called Achilla when it's a girl. So as Earth that didn't like the name Achilles for their puppy because as I was saying the puppy is a girl. Can you believe that?
Earth camped in the apartment for the whole week just because of that.

"Nine? You coming with us?"

I snapped back at reality when someone said my name.

"Ahm." I replied, not knowing what to say. What were they saying?

So much for concerning the problem that isn't mine. Why does everyone seems to be problematic? I'm facing my own problems too! Not just you! Let's hear what's your problem the Nine. My subconscious retaliated. My heart!

This man called Joong Archen is making my heart problematic!

"Just let him hop on Joong's car."

"Joong?"

"Yes Phi, I'll take care of him."

My mind wondered what they are talking about. Is it me? Probably because I was the one who's not listening. Who's hopping on who?

My gaze landed to Earth who just got inside of Benjamin's car. When did they made up? I heard Dome's car sprint to the exit of the parking lot so as Ben's.

Wait? I didn't bring my car!

"Nine?" I almost jump in my spot when someone called.

I turn around and found the handsome man who possess a dark complexion. He's face were calculating as if he was afraid I'll break lose.

"You're here." I said, stating the obvious. Seriously Nine, That's the only thing you can say?

"I was here for a while. Are you okay? You idled." He said sounding worried. He might be, but then he might be a considerate person. Don't assume too much.

As soon as I grasp my self, I look at him with a smile on my face. Not a forcing smile or awkward smile but a smile. A pure smile.

"I'm okay. Thanks for asking. Where's your car?" I said. Just this one. I'll let myself assume. Just a little.

He's lips curve into a beautiful smile, "I didn't park here, because it's packed earlier. It's in the nearby convenience store."

He walked first leading the way. I know there's a convenience store nearby. We frequently visited that certain store when we come here. Getting ramen to ease up the alcohol in our body.

My eyes traveled from the back of his head to his foot. The white long-sleeved was rolled down to his elbow, black slacks and black shoes. He must be from work.

Probably tired but choose to come here because of Pavel but only to be used as helping hand of the drunk Pavel. Damn. That guy deserve a hundred smack on his head.

"Joong?" I called his name a bit hesitant .

Does it sound weird?

"uh, Can I call you that?" I asked, I don't know what face he's wearing because his back is facing mine. I lowered down my head but still continue to walk towards the store.
