Mina and Gowon exited their dorm sleepily and groggily as they had fallen asleep late last night since they were busy indulging in the new drama that both of them had been watching ----The Penthouse Season 2. 

It seemed like that they were not the only people who stumbled out of their dormitories with sleepy looks written all over their faces. In fact, a lot of people had staggered out of their respective rooms tiredly as the campers had played three rounds of morning calls to wake them up every morning. 

Mina felt odd that she had not received a love letter from either of the so called 'H' yet. 

Did she get play again? 

A question that she would not dare to voice out as her mind was fried from all of the information yesterday. 

Sluggishly, both of the girls made their way to their table where some of them still looked tired while a certain raven haired boy was up, smiling brightly at Mina. 

"Morning, Mina-ssi!" Hyunjin greeted Mina enthusiastically as Mina nodded back, tired to greet anyone. 

"Why did you sleep so late, Mina? Don't you know that it's unhealthy sleeping in late?" He asked, concernedly as his voice gone soft as if he was speaking to someone that was extremely fragile. 

While on the other hand, Jugyoung, Sunoo, Gowon and Seojun were irked at how fake Hyunjin was before sitting down as they ate their breakfast that were warmly served in front of them. 

"Oh... I was too caught up with Penthouse's recent episodes! It was really hard to get my mind off of it! Hehe!" Mina laughed awkwardly as she rubbed the nape of her neck. 

"Today's breakfast seemed really bountiful!" Mina chirped, attempting to lighten up the tense atmosphere as Sunoo smiled. 

"It seems really nice!" Sunoo agreed. 

A hand was on Mina's shoulders, causing her to swerve around to find another boy from other group to held a note in his hands. 

 "Is there a matter?" Mina insinuated as she turned around and met the boy. 

His hands were shaking tremendously as his brown eyes flickered from Mina to Hyunjin who was sitting next to her, glaring at him as if he dared to blunder.

"S-someone a-asked m-me t-to p-pass y-you t-this!" The boy stammered, shivering under Hyunjin's harsh gaze as Micha and Chaeri who had just joined in, interrupted the interaction between Mina and the boy. 

"Wait, is there someone trying to confess to Mina early in the morning?" Micha gasped as she covered her mouth. 

"It's like watching a scene from kdrama unfurled in front of us!" 

"Shush! You are ruining the moment!" Chaeri hissed as she hit her loud roommate. 

"Oh? I will accept this and make sure to tell that the person has my sincere thanks." Mina answered him nicely as she reassured him with a smile on her face. 

The boy breathed a sigh of relief before glancing momentarily at Hyunjin who nodded slightly, earning the boy an immense amount of relief. 

'My, my, the power of money can really bring all of the people down to your knees and do whatever you want.' Hyunjin thought as Mina received the letter.

The boy bowed and swiftly walked away as Mina turned to Gowon with a puzzled look on her face. 

"Do you think 'H' could send another boy to confuse me?" She whispered just as Micha and Chaeri swiftly ran towards them and yanked the note from Mina's hands. 

"Let's read the note together!" Micha squealed loudly, attracting attention from everyone in the cafeteria who was looking at them with annoyed expression written across their faces. 

"Can't you guys keep it down? Some of us here are still sleepy." A boy shouted as Mina sheepishly stood up and bowed as an apology. 

"I am sorry, everybody! They are just excited!" Mina said as Gowon sighed and turned to Micha and Chaeri who were excitedly opening the note. 

"Hey, that is not meant for you to read!" Gowon sighed as she felt a headache forming in her head. 

"What? You are not even Mina! Why are you even stopping us?" Micha hissed as Chaeri nodded her head. 

"It is not polite to read the letter that is specifically addressed to Mina!" Gowon argued as  she glanced at Hyunjin. 

"As a leader, are you not supposed to stop them from reading it?" 

"Well, curiosity kills the cat. If Mina allows them, then they can read. So, what do you say?" Hyunjin said as he turned to Mina who was scratching the back of her neck awkwardly. 

"Um, it's alright." Mina sighed as Gowon turned to Mina with a sharp look. 

"Yay, thank you, Mina! You're the best!" Micha cheered as she hugged Mina tightly. 

"Let's read this!" She continued as she opened the note and read. 

"My dearest Mina, 

I hope you are able to gather clues about me by now. My next clue is I am in the same group as you.

From, H."

"What is this even?" Jugyoung scoffed as Seojun nodded his head, getting a gist at who the sender might be. 

Just then, Beomgyu, Felix and Huening Kai came to the cafeteria, looking perplexed and gave each other some looks before heading to their table. 

"Hey, what has made this gone lively?" Beomgyu smiled, attempting to break the sickening tension between their group members. 

"Good luck, bro. You need to man up for Mina's sake. You kissed her, right? You have an advantage than Hyunjin." Felix whispered as Huening Kai nodded his head. 

"You can do this!" Felix said encouragingly as he gave Huening Kai a thumbs up before taking a seat next to Hyunjin who only glared at him. 

"Someone has sent a love letter to Mina-ssi! Aw, it's  adorable!" Micha squealed as Gowon pinched the bridge of her nose. 

Mina could only be silent as she sat, slumped next to Gowon who only looked at her worriedly. 

"You know, you don't have to allow them to read it." Gowon announced as Mina shook her head. 

"Adorable?" Felix questioned as he looked at Hyunjin with a warning look on his face. 

He could not help but to feel even more annoyed at Hyunjin till the point that his best friend had let his venegance to be an impostor of someone else's love life. 

"Hey, Mina." Huening Kai said as Mina turned to him. 

"Do you want to go on a walk to the garden afterwards? Just you and me?"
