ONE WEEK LATER

Each of the members spent two hours memorizing the choreography for their upcoming debut, and some members became fatigued over repeated practice sessions. The instructor decides to take a break during the break, but Jeongwoo continues to dance.

"Jeongwoo ah, take it easy~" 

Hyunsuk warned him this time to prevent him from fainting from over-exhaustion like last time. 

When Sukhee glanced at the group, she asked worriedly, "Can we bring them something to cheer them up? They're all so stressed."

All staff immediately agreed with her.

Sukhee asked away, "Whose up for ice cream?" 

Apart from Jeongwoo, every member of the group raised their hands quickly. 

Yedam's face was filled with worry. 

"Why is Jeongwoo acting so strangely?" 

Hyunsuk remarked confusedly, "Usually he gets excited about things like this."

However, Haruto hesitated before asking Sukhee, but finally asked, "Noona, may I ask where you're ordering the ice creams?"

"The Baskin-Robbins where my sister works."

In an effort to get the orders, Haruto asked, "May I go?"

"Don't worry, she will bring over the orders when she gets here." 

As Jeongwoo was constantly thinking of Y/N, he was unable to hear what they were saying, therefore he did not respond to them. 

Y/N were overwhelmed by the order they received. 

"Why are there only eleven flavors of ice cream?"

That boy does not go with the guys anymore. 

"I will get them ready now so you can get it to them as soon as possible."

I quickly regained my composure and asked, "Can you make one more? Make it chocolate."

Without a thought, John nodded. 

YOUR POV

Since this building is so huge, it took me a while to find their practice room. A peek through the see-through window revealed Sukhee, making me feel happy and causing me to enter the room, "Baskin Robbins is here~" 

Sukhee and the staff greeted me with a smile as they looked at my end. 

The five people who met me before gasped in shock and looked away, "It is her, isn't it?"

Jaehyuk repeatedly nodded his head. 

It was impossible for Haruto to believe what he saw. The fact that he didn't expect me to deliver the order caused him to blush a little and hide behind Yoshi. 

Sukhee hugged her tightly, "You're here? I missed you so much!"

The awkward smile returned to my face, "Ah, what's wrong? We're at work right now." 

"Why aren't you getting over that shyness? Everyone knows you except the boys." 

"Who are the boys?"

When I looked up, she nodded and took a few steps aside for me to take a good look, and all the people were looking at me shyly as I gasped surprisingly to see familiar faces. I smiled politely and said, "Hello~ It is nice to meet you all, and thanks for looking after my sister." 

They gasped in amazement, "Are you guys siblings?"

I laughed as Sukhee ruffled my hair in a hysterical, "Yup! We're identical, aren't we?" 

Then I brushed her arm off and said, "Unnie, you did it again!" 

"She will be happy to serve you all your favorite flavors. It's about to melt." 

Taking turns, they lined up in a row and took their favorite ice cream. I smiled at their cuteness, and when Haruto's turn came, "Oh, it is you again!"

The boy bit his lip and giggled softly, "It's nice to see you again." 

My eyebrows rose in a playful way and I smiled lovingly at him, "I'm glad you're debuting soon with these guys~" 

In a sulk, Junghwan pushed Haruto aside, saying, "It's my turn! My ice cream is about to melt already!" 

Laughter erupted from everyone. The practice was filled with laughter and happiness. I didn't see that boy again. Sukhee saw that I still had one ice cream, prompting her to ask, "Did you add one more accidentally? I thought I ordered 11 ice creams."

When I turned around I stuttered, "O-Oh, t-this is for me! I'm going now."

Sukhee was surprised by her sudden goodbye, "B-Bye~" 

I was embarrassed for believing I would see him again, but he wasn't there. 

It was a disappointment to get my hopes up for a few seconds until I accidentally bumped into someone. My heart sank as I realized I had splashed some ice cream on his white cloth, "I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to-"

At that moment, I looked up and never imagined this would ever repeat itself in the same way. He stared at me as if he were devouring me with sweat streaming down his face, and I got mesmerized by his looks. 

Later on, he interrupted it by asking, "Are you just going to stare like that?"

Taking a few steps back, I blinked tightly and apologized, "I'm sorry. I didn't look properly, and I got dirt on your shirt...".

"All of this can be washed anyway, so why are you here?"

"I brought the ice cream." 

As he stared at the ice cream I was holding secretly, he said, "Is that my ice cream?"

My heart began to beat faster again and I could not reply. 

"I was just joking, Y/N. I didn't need one anyway."

He knows my name? 

After he walked by me, I felt regretful so I grabbed his hand and gave him the ice cream. "I thought you might want one, so I asked for another so you don't feel left out."

As a response to my TMI, he laughed, "Are you a rapper? You did not need to talk fast."

I blushed harshly and didn't think it would make him laugh.

"You even remember my favorite flavor? Thanks, I appreciate that."

"W-Well, that's what you've been buying at our café every time you come."

"I know you've been checking me out when I come with my squad." 

"I-I wasn't!" 

Jeongwoo widened his eyes at my shout, which had him giggle softly. I cannot stop the beating of my heart anymore. As I was about to confess my feelings, he suddenly pats my head and gave me his pretty smile again. 

Ah, I can't be with him.

He is going to be an idol.

I am just an orphan.
