Sooyoung tries not to make a squeal when she sees the newly uploaded picture of someone she followed on Instagram, also known as Jennie. She tries not to make any noise while her Joohyun Unnie is busy making their breakfast for the day. She is aware that Joohyun simply steals a glance at her before continuing cooking another batch of kimchi fried rice.

Sooyoung can't help but to feel sadness when her unnie is trying every day to put a smile on her face. It's been three months since it happened. The breakdown of Joohyun.

It is the first time that Sooyoung saw Joohyun actually cry. She knew how strong and resilient Joohyun was. It's just that she doesn't know how she can help her unnie. She knows how to comfort people but she doesn't know if she could actually comfort Joohyun.

There's a lot of comments in Jennie's post as usual. Most of it is positive, congratulating Jennie and Seungwan about their relationship. She remembers how Seungwan made their night sleepless by calling and texting Joohyun but her unnie just ignored it. She's the one who's worried how she will answer the ex of her Joohyun Unnie. She remembered how Seungwan almost ended up in the police station because of their neighbors. They can't take it about the noise every night anymore. She just pleaded with Seungwan to stop coming every night because Joohyun doesn't care anymore. At least that's what Joohyun wants her to say. But she saw how worried Joohyun was but she needed to do it because her unnie doesn't deserve to be cheated.

Sooyoung flinched when Joohyun snapped a finger at her face. The older girl chuckles when Sooyoung makes a face.

"Why are you spacing out? The breakfast might get cold. Hurry up and you'll be late to school."

Sooyoung just nodded and got her spoonful of rice and she tasted it. It is still the same as the past months. The food is delicious but it is not happy.

After eating her breakfast, Sooyoung picked her bag and ran as fast as she could to the nearest bus stop. She will be late if she doesn't catch the bus soon. Joohyun will surely scold her if she will have another warning from school because of tardiness. She gasped when she saw that her bus was already there and she's still fifteen meters away from it and it is already jam-packed.

"No, no, no!" She uttered with exhaustion.

She is left dumbfounded when the bus already went away before she made it to the stop. She can't run that fast to catch it because she's wearing heels. Sooyoung wondered why she decided to wear heels when she needed to catch the bus. Sooyoung almost jumped from her place when someone made a noise from their car horn. Her eyes widened when she saw someone that she just saw from an earlier post from a certain someone named Jennie.

When was the last time she saw Seungwan? Probably last month because she stopped bothering Joohyun after that police station incident.

"Hey." Seungwan greeted her.

Seungwan is no stranger to her. She's also like a sister to Sooyoung. Of course, Joohyun and Seungwan are in a relationship since she knew how to run just to catch the bus. She doesn't know how to react because even if it's not her position to be like this, she feels the awkwardness.

"U-unnie." She waved her hand and put an awkward smile. Seungwan nodded.

"Hop in."

She doesn't know if she can still do it. Yes, Seungwan used to give her a ride whenever she missed the bus. But that was before, when Joohyun and Seungwan were still together. She was about to refuse but Seungwan already opened the car door. She doesn't refuse anymore because she has no choice or else she will be late.

"Seatbelt please."

Seungwan reminded her and started the engine. There's silence between them. Seungwan knew how talkative Sooyoung was. She always makes time to ask about her date with Joohyun or how the story of Romeo and Juliet will put on shame if they hear about theirs. But they are not together anymore. Seungwan gulped.
