Four Letters (Chaeyoung×MiSaMo)

[61] Going Around In Circles

"It's been a week dude, you said you'll tell her." Was the first word Chaeyoung heard from her friends. Coming from what they talked last time and what she promised, she knew exactly what she needed to do. To finally tell Mina everything, her act, her lying, everything.

But to say is harder than to do, she's been trying but just couldn't. It frustrates her too more than anyone. Chaeyoung just sighed as she dropped herself on the bean bag. "I know, I just can't find the right timing." She answered.

Tzuyu also slumped on the couch and crossed her legs, so as her arms. "Are you worried that she might be mad?" The younger asked and Chaeyoung nonchalantly shook her head.

"I'm not worried about that, I'm actually ready and expecting for that possibility. She has every rights to be mad, it's just that now a days Mina just seemed... quiet."

A scoff and a chuckle coming from Dahyun made the two glare at her. "Come on Chae, it's Mina she's always been quiet."

"Try quieter hyun, will that help you understand?" She explained like a pre-school teacher then threw a rubik's cube all across the room. The two could feel her frustrations, and the best answer to that is to let their friend let it all out.

"It's just that one day I come home and she's not even available for dinner anymore. I even waited for her until past midnight just to hear a goddamn 'I already ate at the meeting?" Chaeyoung even mimicked her girlfriend's voice. "Since that spawn of a hell day, she's been going home late. She never makes breakfast anymore, well, I mean she never had to in the first place. But you know..."

"You got used to it." Tzuyu was the one to finish her sentence. She released a sigh once again before boringly nodding her head.

"She surely isn't ignoring me, she just seemed really distant these days. I don't even know what's wrong." The sadness of their problematic friend had slowly affected all of them. Now, even they can't think of any solution and instead just submerged themselves in Chaeyoung's emotions.

"What the hell is this again?" Their hero finally came. It's like the spirit of happiness and hope in the whole galaxy had possessed them as they lift their head up in joyfulness. "Alright, I'm all ears." Jihyo sat on the couch besides Tzuyu and listened how the three child at heart, grown up women told her about Chaeyoung's problems.

It was like a math equation and Jihyo was the one that gets the solution after just hearing one round of the problem. They've anticipated as Jihyo agape her lips, getting ready to speak.

"Why don't we set up a nice dinner tonight, for you and Mina and altogether you find out what's wrong then make up for it. It's crucial that you get her forgiveness first before you drop another bomb on her." Jihyo explained the first part of her equation, the three intently listened. "You tell her everything after the atmosphere starts to lighten and the mood brightens, okay?" The three nodded like little kindergarten kids listening to their teacher. "I'll try to convince her to go home early tonight and you three could set up everything here."

After the final part of the plan was told, Chaeyoung stood up and gave her best unnie a warm and tight hug. "I will worship you forever." Jihyo laughed as she tapped the back of the younger.

"I appreciate your effort of making things right Chaeyoung."

"Well, I should. See you tomorrow, I hope this will go well." Chaeyoung breathed out and smiled at her.

"It will." A group hug was shared one last time before they went their ways and get ready for everything.

Mina with a very tired aura came home earlier than usual today. Because their company building was suddenly having an electricity check-up? Well that information was delivered by Jihyo, which according to her came from Jisoo, Mina's assistant.
