Book 1 - O2

Chapter 28

It's been 1 week since Jihyo's death.

The girls were informed that they were safe and could resume their living in their respective floors.

Jeongyeon refused to come out of her room and hence you could hear Nayeon's tantrums, day in and out.

Everyone was mentally tired. Moreover the pressure of exams. How did things escalate so fast?

It's like the girl's are running for a marathon, but they can't seem to stop themselves. They have been running constantly panting, gasping for air. Their own will has withered down.

Nothing was the same. But the question is....Why are they so bothered with Jihyo?

For sure Jihyo flinged with them in one way or other, but it's also a fact that they were just friends, more or less acquaintances, who shared a relationship or so to speak a mutual friendship with the Once University President, Yoo Jeongyeon.

But nothing was so close or similar to either of them.

Not being able to control her frustration, Nayeon already spat fire on her best friends who are now very badly cross with her and refuse to have any kind of negotiation with Nayeon. Yes, Nayeon was acting like a bitch, but with everything happening so fast, one loses to keep track of their time and this time it was the *Japanese Girls.*

"Nayeon. Stop it already. Like you, everyone is also messed up." Mina hints Nayeon, folding her hands.

Nayeon is fuming right now and the amount of anger that rests at the tip of her nose is humongous. If she loses her patience, hell will break.

"Mina shut that tiny mouth of yours and sit back on your seat. Don't mess with me rn." Nayeon darts back with authority in her voice.

Mina flinches and comes towards Nayeon. She leans in to whisper to Nayeon.

"Stop acting out you little shit! Everyone knows you are hell bent fawned over Jeongyeon. But that seriously doesn't give you the right to treat others like mere animals." Mina hits the back of Nayeon's head to bring back some sense into her.

Of course that didn't work. It added fuel to the enlarged fire.

Without thinking Nayeon gives a slap to Mina and Mina cuts her lips with the sudden action. Chaeyoung who has been observing everything from the kitchen counter while making coffee, comes dashing towards, where her two unnies were standing.

"WHAT THE FUCK ?!!" "MINA ARE YOU OKAY?" Chaeyoung caresses the cheek of Mina and Mina nods. Totally unaffected by Nayeon's slap as if she was used to it.

Mina starts laughing hysterically. Her eyes share glances at Nayeon in intervals while she laughs and this creeps out Nayeon. At another level. Sending shivers down her spine.

Chaeyoung glares at Nayeon, without any sort of affection in her eyes.

She takes a step towards Nayeon but Mina stops Chaeyoung while trying to stop her laughter. "Nayeon, you can be so funny sometimes." Mina answers back patting Nayeon's shoulders and leaves the living room, dragging Chaeyoung along with her. If she left Chaeyoung, she would have literally killed Nayeon.

 -------------------------------------------------------

Chaeyoung's POV:

Damn. That was something. Mina drags me out of the room. You can literally see smoke coming out of my ears. I am so furious. Why wouldn't I be? Tell me? That tiny little unnie hit my Mina. No body has the right to do that. Plus she's her best friend?? Pfffff- Do you hit your Best friend like that? That's so absurd. Also the way Mina laughed was....Like a psychopath and now I am scared....

I keep stealing glances at Mina and she is still wheezing her ass out. Giggling every now and then. And believe me. It's very Creepy. What is she laughing about? Sheesh. I hold her hands and look at her.

"Mina?" I look at her. Her eyes are squinted and she just cannot stop giggling.

"AW....hahah...sorry Chaengie.."

"Mina-yah...you are scaring me now." I look at her nervously. My hands are trembling now.

On hearing me, she stops and says, "Sorry Chaeng. It's funny seeing Nayeon change her faces every now and then."

"Care to explain dear?"

I wait for her reply.

She takes a moment to reply. "Let's talk in your room Chaeng." She clears her throat and the lift door opens.
