She thumbed down the console as her eyes pierced right to the screen. She didn't even blink. It was her versus Ryujin. They've been fighting for about half an hour and no one seemed to give in easily.

She had her feet on the table as she leaned comfortably to the arm sofa whilst chewing her bubble gum.

"Minjeong-ah, why are you here? It's Saturday afternoon." Chaeryeong stated as a matter of fact. She took a bag of chips and filled it inside her mouth. She just arrived at Wonyoung's place and didn't expect the shorty to be there since she usually ditch her friends to spend more time with Jimin.

"Yuji is going shopping with her friends." She replied shortly. "Damn it," she muttered under her breath. She was about to lose one of her hearts because of the other short creature beside her.

Ryujin didn't respond.

"Unnie, you will lose to Ryujin unnie," Wonyoung snickered. "Just wait for it, wait for it..." She laughed loudly. "Bam!"

"Damn it, Wonnie!" She shouted, slammed the console. "What's with you all disturbing my game, seriously!"

"I won't! Woohoo!" Ryujin punched the air. "Woah! That was tiring," she smirked smugly.

"Whatever, I'm not playing that again," she sulked as she snatched the chips from Chaeryeong's hand and grabbed a hand of it and ate it in one go.

"Oh you cry baby!" Ryujin mocked her. "Come on, one more game." She handed her the main console, ready to press the play button.

"Go play with Aeri, she's way too quiet." Aeri wasn't paying attention to her friends. She was looking at the table blankly. "Yo Aeri!" Minjeong threw a peanut that successfully landed on her head making her jump.

"What the heck!" She combed her hair to find the peanut.

"Play with Ryujin," she said easily.

"I don't want to," she replied, irritated.

"She's been moping about 'I-can't-even-know' a lot lately," Wonyoung quoted it with her hands. "Tell her to spill it, unnie."

"You heard her, Aeri. Spill the beans already, what's up with you?"

"Come on, Minjeong! One more game!" Ryujin poked the console to her head.

"Yah!" She shouted. "One more and that's that, Soonkyu. You're a game freak, gosh!"

They start a new game as the others do their own business like watching the battle or eating snacks or dumbly mistaken the nutshell as the peanut and spitting it out right after.

"What is it, Aeri?" Minjeong saw the scene with the corner of her eyes. "You're weirder than usual."

"Nothing," she mumbled.

"It's clearly something, stop that long face and talk to us." Chaeryeong chimed in.

Aeri sighed. "Minjeong-ah? Do you know Yeji?" Aeri said cautiously.

"As in Hwang Yeji the Satan? Yeah I know her, why?"

Aeri frowned at the statement. "What do you think about her?"

"Plankton," she replied shortly.

"What?" Wonyoung laughed. "Are you really talking about that plankton, unnie?"

"Uh-huh," she nodded. "Now I come to think about it, she's more like Squidward. Grumpy, pretentious, cynical, that's what I thought about her."

"YES!" Ryujin shouted! "You loser!" She shoved Minjeong's shoulder, her face palmed at her own bad game.
