I'll Be Right Away

Mina was just that silent human being, you wouldn't even notice her presence if she won't tap you on your shoulder.

She will just stare at you for a moment, then look away like you were just a wind that passed by her way.

If their circle of friends gather, she will always just observing her surroundings.

She can even tell what you were thinking by just looking into your eyes.

Hence, the day that she spoke to Chaeyoung was actually surprising.

Personally speaking to Chaeyoung's mind. Seeing Mina offering her hand for her to reach out, made her think for the longest time.

'Maybe she just want to help me, right?' first thought that came up.

'Or maybe there was a lot of people so she needs to act nice? But she isn't that kind of person' second thought.

'But she.. Told be she was worried... Was she?' third thought.

The spacing out latter came back to reality when someone snap her fingers at front of her.

"In a deep thought, that's why you didn't notice i am here. Chaeyoungie, what happen to you? Why is there a bandage at your forehead?" it was Momo who is sounding so worried.

Well, the day Mina ask Jihyo to suspend the students, she didn't explain the whole story.

The thing she said that, Chaeyoung felt shy and embarrassed that's why she wanted to suspend the students.

"Unnie.. I'm alright.."

"Is this why Mina was freaking out yesterday?"

'Freaking out?' Chaeyoung asks her herself.

"Ah, only if you saw how she roared at Jihyo just to convince her to suspend the students"

'Suspend the students?!' another thought.

"Suspend the students?" Chaeyoung couldn't help herself but to ask. "Yes. Now i know that's why.. Are you hurt until now? Is it still bleeding?" Chaeyoung shook her head. "It's not hurting anymore.. Is it true? That she.. Suspend the students?" again, she asks. "I told you. The way she spoke was really dead serious. Anyways, you should be careful most of the time, alright?" Chaeyoung smiled. "Yes, unnie. I promise you that"

"Promise that to Nayeon too. She was indeed worried the whole class" Momo bid her goodbye and for the second time, saying that Chaeyoung need to take care.

And Chaeyoung, who is still in the deep thought.

Why would Mina suspend them?

Later that day, they didn't saw Mina the whole day.

Chaeyoung was really eager to ask Mina why, about the students.

Not to mention that the students was so polite to her today.

They were bowing as if they saw a teacher.

Chaeyoung felt weird.

Awkward

Most especially, shy.

She was shy.

She's known to her school, yes. But on how the students treat her today made her really shy.

"Hi Chaeyoung--- oh my?! What happened?!"

"Oh.. Hi!" Chaeyoung answered cutely. "Stop acting cute, Chaeyoung. Now tell me what happened to your forehead?" ah, Sana is indeed serious.

"I kinda tripped.. But it's okay now, no worries" Sana sighed. "Okay.. Tell me if you're not, alright? Anyways, where's Tzuyu?" Chaeyoung thinks for a moment. "Oh.. I did saw her to her classroom earlier today. But I don't know where she is now" Sana nods. "Alright, gonna find that yoda!" she wave her hand while jogging.

Sana always have her eyes on Tzuyu.

Anyways, Chaeyoung's heading to the canteen.

Upon sitting with her tray, she felt lonely.

Her unnies are all busy.

She was about to eat, when a tray on front of her was placed.

"Excuse me--- oh..." her voice trailed off upon seeing who it was.

"You're alone?" Mina shortly asks. "Yes.. Unnies are busy"

"But I'm not" Mina blankly replied. Chaeyoung scratch her nape. "You should've called me." she added.

"You might be busy--" Chaeyoung was cut off. "Nonsense. Completely nonsense. You're alone, why would i say no?" Chaeyoung nods to herself while pursing her lips. "You can't eat alone"

"I can't-- wait, what?" Mina stared at her for a second. "Call me" shortly, Mina explained. "Why..." Chaeyoung mumbled. "We'll eat together"

'Together?!' Chaeyoung thought.

'Why would she...' another thought came in.

Mina didn't talked further and started eating.

Chaeyoung picked up her utensils and started eating too.

Silence.

It was pure silence.

While Chaeyoung's chewing, Mina lift her head.

Mina extended her hand.

Chaeyoung froze to her sit.

'Did she just touched my lips?!' again, her thoughts.

"Eat slowly, you might choke" oh..

There was a stain at Chaeyoung's lips.

'Oh god...' Chaeyoung's thought.

"Uhm.. Thank you" with a low volume voice, she thanked. Mina didn't respond.

Still eating, with a deep thought.

Chaeyoung's mind is confuse.

Thinking, that why would Mina eat with her? Isn't she busy? She's a Vice President and she can't be always free.

Mina is just always silent, if she tells you something. You should listen carefully. Because she won't explain herself further.

"You felt lonely, didn't you?" asks Mina. "I did..."

"But i came" Chaeyoung stopped for a moment.

'She did...' she thought.

"Yeah.. You came" she agreed. It was true anyways. "Call me if you need me, I'll be right away"
