"...Jeongyeon came and surprised me! Flowers in her hand, roses' petals on the ground and a table in the middle with candles and wines.." Nayeon's eyes twinkle as she reminisces about the event that happened a week ago.
Jihyo scoffed, "Daniel did the same thing on our first anniversary. He made it extra special by hiring a violinist throughout our romantic dinner date. Imagine how much it cost him just to make me the happiest woman in the world..."
The bragging between the two continued as no one wanted to back down. Mina mindlessly poking her food, she lost in her friends' conversation about how their partners surprised them. She actually finds it funny how the two banter about it today. But as time passed by, she'd gone boring listening to them and ended up losing her appetite.
She sighed, checking the time. 1:27PM it says. Three more minutes and the others will finally arrive. Today they decided to go shopping to spend their eventless weekends. But to her luck (pun intended), she'd stuck with these deep-in-love friends of hers that no other than talk about was their love life.
'Why did my other friends call last minute and say that they will be late? Now I'm stuck here listening to their cheesy way of surprising my friends.' She mentally complained and bluntly rolled her eyes before slumping her head on the table.
"Hey, sorry we're late."
She abruptly sat up, "Finally!" Startling her friends, she stood up and gave them a lip tight smille. "Let's go."
As they walked from store to store, the conversation didn't end there, unfortunately, the conversation turned to her. "You know, for you single ass to relate, why don't you entertain all your suitors who are desperate to score a date with you?"
Mina halted and turned around to look at Nayeon. While Nayeon gave her an intimidating look. "You know that--"
"I'm not interested in the moment to be in a relationship." All her friends nonchalantly said.
"You already know my reason, why still ask the same question?" She scowled, rolling her eyes as she continued to scan the set of clothes trying to ignore her friends, more like ignoring the conversation because she's not having it again today.
"Mina, the last time you dated was like...3 years? Or was it 4 years ago?" Jihyo interjected, looking all concerned towards her friends. All of their friends are in a relationship: Jihyo and Daniel, Nayeon and Jeongyeon, Momo and Dahyun (well almost there) and lastly Sana and Tzuyu.
Mina was all that left. They feel guilty whenever they talk about their relationship when she's with them knowing how she feels single that made her feel bitter with all the scowl in her face and the boring look she always plastered when 'that' conversation started.
Mina 'the single-ass' Myoi.
Mina rolled her eyes, "Don't make it sound like it was a decade or century ago." She heard Sana snickered behind her followed by Momo who's bluntly laughing at her remark.
Jihyo shrugged, "Well, I'm just saying." She walked beside her and mindlessly checked all the clothes in their section. "Trying to agree to your suitors won't hurt. We never know if one of them is the one." Just the sound of her voice made her roll her eyes. She knows Jihyo has this annoying smirk plastered on her face.
She moved from different kinds of clothes while Jihyo followed suit, quietly. The others roamed around the shop, coming in and out of the fitting room to check the clothes they would probably buy.
"I'm worried."
She glanced at Jihyo.
"Haven't seen the love sick smile ever since your dumb ex cheated on you." Her voice was laced with concern. She actually understood where she was coming from. They'd been together since senior year.
