Rain started pouring down as soon as Eunbi threw him the question. Not having any second thoughts, he answered.

"Ah. Yes. Come on noona." Eunbi proceeded to walk inside his residence as she took off both of her shoes. He then closed the door as soon as she walked in not wanting his corridor to get wet even the slightest bit.

"So what brings you here, noona? Your place is just next door you know" He asked as she placed her shoes neatly next to his pair.

"Mm? Just hanging out. Is it not normal for me to hang out at a friend's place?"

"Well it's not, but... you're coming in to a guy's place noona." He explained.

"And you came into my apartment a few days aho. What's the difference?"

"Well there really isn- you know what? Nevermind. Make yourself at home noona." He forcedfully smiled and extended his hand as if he was a butler welcoming his employer back.

"Weren't you going out just now? Like, 30 minutes ago or something?" Y/N asked after realizing it.

"Well i already did the thing as you can see." She showed him the paper bag she was holding onto.

I still wonder why she didn't go back to her apartment. It's literally next door.

"Do you think she's planning to do something?" Minju asked.

"Not sure. Can you check what's inside her bag? To make sure it's not anything suspicious of course." Minju nodded as she took a peek inside the bag. She showed a before getting back to her position and said.

"It's girl's stuff. You shouldn't know about it."

"I see. As long as it isn't anything weird." He shrugged it off.

"You were saying?" Eunbi asked as she sat down and heard Y/N mumbling to himself. Y/N then gave her an answer he's prepared from before for this occasion.

"Ah, nothing noona. Just mumbling to myself."

"Ooh~ a ghost? This could be a material for our  club you know. So what kind of ghost are you talking to? Phantom? Spirit? Banshee?" She was starting to get interested as Y/N's starting to get flustered.

"Noona i told you it-" Y/N was cut off by her laugh as she muttered.

"I'm just joking, Y/N. Don't be upset." After hearing her noona, an idea popped into his head wanting to get back at her by acting upset.

"Anyway, do you have a laptop?" She asked whilst taking out her phone placing it on top of the table. Not hearing the answer she was looking forward to, she turned her head towards Y/N who was on his phone.

"Y/N?" She called once more to him.

"Ya. Eunbi-unnie's calling for you." Y/N then typed in a message on a note and pointed with his thumb telling Minju to take a look at it.

"I'm getting back at her for- ah~ okay this is rather interesting." She rested her head on the table and watched Eunbi's reaction to the situation.

"Ya. Y/N? You're not upset... right?" She asked this time with a more worried look while trying to get into his peripheral to get his attention. He kept the act going as Eunbi on the other hand was starting to feel like she had messed up.

"Y/N, i'm sorry okay? Please don't be mad..." She pouted looking at him as she shook his arm. Y/N wanting to keep the act longer then shrugged her hand off making her stunned.

"Y-Y/N?" Her eyes were starting to get teary as she could only stare at him. Y/N on the other hand didn't notice and just kept the act for longer. Minju noticed this and shook his arm hard pointing at her as he finally noticed.

"Noona i'm sorry!!!" He placed both of his palms together while bowing to her. "I'm just getting back at you for earlier, i'm not upset. Honest."

"Really?" She sniffed as she replied.

"Yes. See? I'm fine!"

"Don't do that again. I was worried that i might've gone too far with my jokes there." She apologized once more hitting him on the arm.

"It wasn't, noona. Don't worry about it. We're friends after all." He smiled as he looked at her the same time she moved her eyes to meet his. This made the two of them startled and averted their gaze away as he then got up from his seat.

"I'll.. go get my laptop. Wait here." Minju got up as well and smacked him lightly on the hand.

"So this is what you were intending to do. You're flirting with her!" She blurted out making him confused.

"Okay." Eunbi answered as she wiped the tears that almost went out with a handkerchief she just took out.

"I wasn't flirting with her. I just felt mischievous for a moment there and did it. Besides, why would i flirt with her in the first place?"

"Duh. Because she's pretty?" Minju admitted as she tucker her hair behind her ear.

"Don't say that, Minmin. You're-" Minju's ears both pricked up hearing her being mentioned as Y/N stopped midway realizing he was about to mess up.

"You're?" Minju asked.

"You're... being ridiculous. You know i'm not the flirty type." He saved himself with his quick-thinking as Minju on the other hand slumped.

"I see. Well you aren't the flirty type, that i can agree. That's why you're single until now."

"The reason i'm single until now is because a certain someone is so clingy that i can't even manage to find myself one girl to flirt with." He said with sarcasm making Minju glare at him.

"So you hate that i'm clingy to you?" She rolled her eyes around as Y/N picked up his laptop.

"I never said i hated it. I liked it in fact, in case it wasn't clear." He attempted on shooting his shots trying to get Minju to realize his feelings for her.

"....pabo." Minju whispered as the two of them sat back down on the table Eunbi was sitting at. She then scooted over to Y/N's side making him flustered as he asked.

"What're you doing, noona?" He asked as he scooted over as well giving her room.

"Oh. Well i was thinking we could search up some stuff for us to do at the clubroom later on. I don't really have anything prepared so i'm starting now. Or else our meetings would just be filled with void."

"Ah. Sure. So... how should we start?"

"What about.... the case of a person who exists in this world, but isn't visible?"
