Chapter 3 - Planned

Rei

My phone dinged again, notifying me of something. I opened my Instagram to be greeted by a spam of messages.

I didn't bother to read what they were saying. My mind was too busy on finding our grandma aka Gaeul-unnie. She had told me to meet her in the food court because Yujin-unnie was hungry and that they were going to eat without me if I didn't hurry.

"Yujin-unnie where are you?"

"Oh I see you! Look to your left"

"Left.. Ah I see you!"

"Okiee"

Called ended

I slowly approached Yujin-unnie, turning my phone off as I walked. The closer I got, I noticed that Gaeul-unnie was with her.

"Oh Hi Gaeul-unnie, I didn't know you were going to be here" My lips curved up, showing my bright smile.

"Yeah I sort of forgot to tell you.." Yujin-unnie scratched her nape, awkwardly grinning.

"It's okay unnie. I haven't seen you guys in a while so it's fine. Can we eat first? I'm a bit hungry" I shyly asked. A stabbing feeling grew in my stomach and I needed something to get down my system.

A loud growl came from my stomach. Why did it have to be so loud? That's so embarrassing..

"Are you sure you're a bit hungry?" Yujin-unnie teased. I could feel my face burn up and laughter escaped my lips out of embarrassment.

We got to the food court and chose between a variety of foods. Wanting food from different places, we separated for a while. I sat a table and Yujin-unnie soon sat with me.

"Unnie, you didn't get anything?" I asked.

She shook her head. "I couldn't find anything I wanted so yeah.."

I looked down at my tray of food. "If you want, you can share with me"

"Actually that looks really good"

With the chopsticks in my hand, I grabbed a piece of meat and gave it to her. "Woah! It tastes as good as it looks"

"Wait, where's Gaeul-unnie?" I looked around, trying to find the missing unnie.

"Ahh.. she said she had to go do something"

I looked around the food court, trying to find either Yujin-unnie or Gaeul-unnie. Before I could even fully examine the place, I was pulled, making me turn around.

My eyes widen in shock. "Unnie don't do that! You scared me!"

"Sorry, I'm just in rush. Yujin should be eating over their near the Asian restaurants. Sit with her and I'll be back soon" Gaeul-unnie started walking away before I could even ask her where she's going.

"Just take a deep breath, you'll be fine Rei" I spoke to myself, preparing for any sudden questions Yujin-unnie might ask.

"I'm not taking sides, I'm trying to help both of you. Neither of you will cooperate and I'm just as tired of this as you are. Talk to each other, I'm not some bird who passes messages around"

As I got closer to the table and realised that someone else was with her. It definitely wasn't Wonyoung. Maybe Leeseo? Wait no that's..
