Minju came out of the shower to see an empty room, confused as she sat down on the chair, wondering where Yujin went.

She sat comfortably with hands furiously rubbing the towel on her head, hearing the room door creak open.

"Where did you go?"

Yujin held up the air conditioner remote control. "It died." she slotted it back to where it belongs and just stood there, looking at Minju who was drying her hair using the hairdryer.

The younger girl walked behind her and naturally took the device from her, drying Minju's hair gently.

"You've worked too hard," she spoke, diligently ruffling her fingers into her hair, earning a few nods from Minju.

"Your hair grows fast," Yujin remarked since Minju cut her hair short, slightly below her shoulder about a month ago.

"Does it?" she looked up, seeing the girl nod.

"Ah, you're coming with me later." Yujin raised her eyebrow. "Where?"

"The team's going for barbeque at 8." The younger girl turned off the hairdryer, placing it back into the drawer as Minju combed her hair using her fingers.

She saw the older girl turn her body around, still sitting on the chair. "Must I come?"

"Yes." 

She held onto Yujin's shirt, slowly pulling her closer.

"There's no alcohol involved, right?" she asked.

Minju raised both eyebrows. "That's why I need you to come with me." Yujin narrowed her eyes and placed both hands onto Minju's head.

"I trust you," she uttered and slightly brushed Minju's hair. "Why won't you come with me?" she asked, earning a small sigh from Yujin who was hesitant to reply.

"Is it because of her? That's why you don't come with me whenever I meet up with the team?" Yujin puckered her lips and shook her head. "No..." the inferiority within her is slowly eating her up with Minju's intense stare.

"Maybe...but I had my reasons." she admitted and retreated her hands.

Minju sighed softly, gently wrapping her arms around Yujin, her body being supported by the back of the chair.

"Just come with me," she mumbled into Yujin's torso as the girl softly caressed her hair. "Don't worry, I won't drink." she tried convincing the younger girl.

After some thought, she agreed on going with Minju, making the girl beam widely.

"It's okay, you can drink." she glanced downwards, making the girl tilt her head.

"I'll be there to bring you home." Yujin let out a petite smile and tucked Minju's hair behind her ear.

"But I'll need to claim you first," she added, feeling Minju's grasp around her loosening as she met with her intense gaze.

"And what do you mean by that?" she suspiciously asked and watched as the younger girl walked in front of her, getting ready to carry her.

"Are you tired?"

Minju just knew what she meant and felt Yujin's hands under her arms.

The older girl grabbed onto her right hand and lifted it in front of her, scoffing softly.

"I took them off."

Yujin wiggled her fingers, showing how she removed her acrylic nails as Minju squinted her eyes at her cheeky intentions.
