Chapter 7

After the feast the three girls entered their own cars with their driver and bodyguard in front. Mina found herself staring lostly in the busy city of Los Angeles, California. After a while they arrived in front of a tall building. Mina is confused as to why Sana and Momo dropped in her building.

"Mina-yah, we're staying here until lunch." Momo said as she enters Mina's exclusive elevator.

"Why? Im so tired being with you two." Mina said following Momo.

"I know you love us Minari." Sana said catching up with her and side hugged her.

Mina just release a deep sigh. She walked towards the elevator. A comfortable silence hugged them inside the elevator. The moment the door opened, a bunny and an ostrich appeared in the view.

"Nayeonnieee, Jeongyeon unniee! Nice to see you both here!" Sana and Momo excitedly ran towards the two girls.

Jeongyeon and Nayeon walked passed Momo and Sana, teasing them and enveloped Mina into a tight embrace.

"Mina-yah! How are you, we missed you a lot." Nayeon said.

"Unnies, can't breath. Too tight." The two girls let go of Mina as she catches some breath and fixed her dress.

"Rude bitches" Sana mumbled but Nayeon heard her and gave her a soft slap on her arms but hugged her tight afterwards. Jeongyeon hugged Momo on the other hand, "Did you brought jokbal from Korea?" Momo asked while hugging Jeongyeon.

"No, sorry momo-yah. Just go to korea, borrow Mina's jet" Nayeon answered for Jeongyeon.

Momo lets out a sad smile, feeling devastated after she heard that there's no jokbal. "You may both leave now." Momo sighed. The other four girls glances each other, stopping themselves from cracking up.

"Of course we did Momoring. We brought a lot just for you. But if you're kind enough, share some with Mina and Sana" Nayeon said showing a box of all korean delicacies with a mix of japanese ones.

"I love you both so much" Momo teary-eyed hugged Nayeon and Jeongyeon.

All of them settled inside Mina's office. Her office holds more than a house could, so basically she has everything in there, though its separated by a wall, including a small dining area.

"So what brings you two here?" Mina asked while getting some ramen and sushi.

"Business trip?" Sana added while munching teokkbokki.

Momo just quietly enjoying her food while listening to her friends conversing.

"We are going to be wedded here in LA" everyone choked on their foods. A moment of silence lingered until Sana burst out crying.

"Oh my gosh unnies. At long last. I am happy for you both" Sana gave them a hug as tears still running down her cheeks.

"Congratulations unnies. Yoo Jeongyeon have to be stuck with you Nayeonnieee" Momo said not leaving her food but with tears visible in her eyes.

Mina just hugged them and whispered that she's happy for both of them. Tears of Joy have fallen in the precious eyes of these five girls and they continue eating and conversing.

"Where are you guys staying?" Sana asked

"We are staying at your hotel guys, MHM Hotel" Jeongyeon said.

"What?! why didn't you tell us? We could close the whole hotel for you guys" Momo answered still eating.

"No need for that Momoring. Revenues will be put into waste." Nayeon said.

"This is not business talk Nayeon unnie. Right Mina, we'll close it for them" Sana said waiting for Mina's approval.

"I'll contact the manager later when you guys go. I'll reserve the whole hotel for you. Your friends outside LA as well could take any rooms in the hotel, just give me the names." Mina said without looking at them and just focusing eating her ramen.

"Wow, you guys. You don't really have to" Jeongyeon said.

" shut it Jeong unnie. I know you could pay for it but take it as an early present" Momo said.

"Friends from Korea will be there. So it will be nice oppurtunity to catch up together." Nayeon said making an obvious alert to both Sana and Momo.

Sana spit out her drink, making the floor wet while Momo choked herself with jokbal for the second time. They both stare at Mina, checking if there's any reaction, when they are satisfied that there's none, they composed themselves and go with the flow.

"That would be fun. I miss everybody so much!" Sana said as she pretends to be excited.

"There are approximately 500 suites in the hotel, i hope it could accomodate everyone that you have unnies" Mina said as she look up without a hint of surprise or off expression.

After their quick catch up everybody bid their good byes to each other leaving Mina to do her work. She finishes a lot of papers as she can to lessen the loads so she could have free time on the wedding day.

She called the hotel manager, "close the hotel for 2 weeks. Reserve it under Ms. Yoo Jeongyeon's name" after she speaks, as usual she drops the call without hearing a response.

Midnight came, half of the papers were done while the other half remained untouched. Mina rests her body into her swivel chair, feeling the dizziness that engulfs her head, closing her eyes. Later on she dozed off with an uncomfortable position.
