The group entered Starbucks. Unlike yesterday, the cafe was packed with people today.

“We might be better off taking our orders to go. We’re like a bunch of sitting ducks out here.” Namjoon suggested, as they stood in line waiting for their turn.

“I agree.” Jin responded.

“Are you guys still getting the same orders as yesterday?” Jake asked and they all nodded. “Bella and I can get them for you while you guys find a quiet corner to wait.”

“Don’t forget my dessert!” Hobi reminded the maknae as Hobi, Yoongi and Jin stepped out of the store.

Namjoon stayed with the couple as it was his card they were using.

“You remembered their orders from yesterday, baby?” Bella asked, surprised.

“Baby sis, he memorizes lyrics and dance steps for a living.” Namjoon reminded her.

“But that’s different. You repeat them several times a day. This was one time.” She countered.

“Actually, that’s not entirely accurate, baby.” Jake corrected her.  “We do order coffee a lot except for V-hyung. After years of seeing them order the same thing, I kind of already know which drinks they like best.”

In no time at all, they were leaving the store. Jake, Bella and Yoongi walked into Greenwich after they realized that they hadn’t grabbed lunch yet. They ordered the same lunch that they ordered yesterday to-go.

Bella’s room was clearly the default living room and it seemed set in stone that they would all go there once they arrived back at the hotel. They placed the food on top of the table and each got their share of the pizza and pasta.

“I had a great time today.” Jin declared. “Learning about this city was fun."

“Couldn’t agree more, Jin-hyung.” Hobi nodded.

“Which ones were your favorite?” Bella asked.

“The crocodiles!” Jake answered. “Those were some huge ass crocs.”

“I enjoyed seeing the church.” Namjoon said, in between bites of pizza. “And to think the local government gave the inmates a chance to do something productive like that. It makes staring at the artistry of that beam more meaningful, if you ask me. I loved how the beams met at the top and cascaded down as if they were the beginnings of a step pyramid.”

Hobi sipped his iced tea. “I liked that Plaza just across that church. What is it called, Corgi?”

“The church was the Immaculate Concepcion church and the Plaza is called Plaza Cuartel, Hobi-oppa.”

“Ah yes, Plaza Cuartel. It was fun posing on those bicycle-led carriages. Honestly, it was kind of a novelty but then again, it was so cute and so eye-catching.” Hobi continued.
