Renjun got woken up when a thud was heard, followed by a quiet whimper. Even in his sleepy state he was able to feel that something was wrong, and carefully got up from the floor to not wake Hyuck up.

Seol was clasping her trembling hands and looking at the floor, where the kitchen knife that she had in her hands a few seconds ago was thrown. The male was quick to take it away and return it to the drawer, before turning to the girl and hugging her.

"Shhh, it's okay, I'm here... are you hurt anywhere?" She shook her head and tightened her arms around him. It hasn't been an hour since the two men fell asleep, and she already had another episode overcoming her.

"I'm glad... you did great..." Caressing her hair Renjun thanked the lord for her strength today, as she could resist her negative thoughts. Trying to stay quiet and not wake up the sleeping man, he comforted Seol until she felt better.

"Come on, let's get some sleep, hmm?" Leading her to the bed and covering her slightly, Renjun held the girl's hand until she finally fell asleep. Instead of joining his friends, he took his tablet out and started drawing, worries not letting him rest.

Donghyuck felt his friend move around and leave him, but he pretended to be asleep when he heard the whimpering. He heard some rattling and the clanking sound of metal before Renjun's hushed voice was heard.

He guessed that something had happened, as the silent cries of the girl got muffled by his friend's hug he assumed. His confusion only grew as Renjun started praising her for doing great...? Hyuck tried to figure out what happened, but as it got quiet again he also drifted back to sleep.

"Time to sacrifice Mark!" Seol exclaimed as she returned from the bathroom after getting changed into her swimwear and a long flowy green skirt. Her loud voice woke Donghyuck up, and the dazed pudu almost got a heart attack at the said words.

It took the tan male a few seconds to remember that Mark was not a living being but a watermelon, and his sacrifice would only mean that they'd be having fruit salad. Calming his startled heart he finally got a good look at the girl, who was pulling out the round fruit from beneath the bed.

Her clothes, or rather her lack of proper clothing made him a bit flustered since she was about to go out like that. He did see her in swimsuits before, but the girl usually wore a shirt to cover her shoulders and upper body. Now, seeing her in only something short and tight made the dazed male realize that she was indeed of the opposite gender.

Renjun took over the splitting and dicing of the fruit after saying a short "it was nice to have you around Mark".

Was it not enough that both believed in the existence of aliens, now they also started befriending fruits? Did Hyuck's friends go insane this past month without him?

The beach bag was quickly packed, and Seol left the two males behind to get ready, as she made her way to the beach. Finding the same spot in the shade where they left their towels the day before, she claimed it once again. The white long sleeve shirt that she threw on to protect her from the 4pm sun was tied at her waist, and she once again placed her sunhat on.

Waving at the approaching males to signal her position, Seol left for the sea with light steps. Walking along the shallow water she once again kept her eyes on the sand, looking at it glittering under the sunlight. Her attention was diverted when she walked past a crying boy sitting beside a ruined sandcastle.

Recognizing him and his sister, who tried consoling him, she decided to approach the two. "Hey there little one, what's the matter?"

"Oh, pretty Miss! My little brother is crying because the water destroyed our castle and washed away the shells you gave us yesterday." The little girl answered as she wiped her brother's cheeks.
