"I want all of you to meet, Yoon Seeun. She has joined us through foreign exchange program-" "Ayeee, stop being so formal. Hola guys! I'm Yoon Jaehyuk's cousin and Lee Sihmin's best friend. The one she bitches to, about all of you." Seeun cuts Sihmin mid sentence and points her index finger at all of them with a smirk.
"Just kidding, have heard only good things about you." She changes her statement after receiving a playful glare from Sihmin.
"Stop fooling around, Se. Moons aren't used to your tactics." Jaehyuk stands up and welcomes her with a hug followed by rest of the Suns. Perks of being Jaehyuk's best friends, they had already met Seeun before.
Before they could proceed with the introductions, another pair erupts through the door causing the Moons to hoot. A weary looking Nori follows closely behind, trying her best to smile.
"Sister-in-law!" "Finally Mashiho will calm down." "He won't stay on the phone during lectures anymore." "Welcome to TIAH Rami." Shaking his head at his friends, Mashiho clears his throat and turns towards the Suns who were already goggling at them.
"Guys, meet my girlfriend-"
"Katsuno Rami." Yedam completes Mashiho's sentence, jaw dropped.
"You know each other?" Mashiho questions, looking surprised.
"We da-" "We are friends! When he came to Japan, we used to hang out often. Good old days those were." Rami fakes a smile catching Yedam off guard.
•••
"Now Moon should introduce themselves t-" "No need. I think I can guess who's who. After all I've heard a lot from Mina." Seeun interrupts Yoshi with a smug look.
"Be our guest." He signals towards all the Moons including Rami who were sitting in a circle with Suns.
"Let's start with the easy ones. Mashiho and his girlfriend Rami as you guys just introduced yourselves. And since Junghwan and you're joined at the hips, you must be Jeongwoo." Seeun claps once Jeongwoo nods.
Upon seeing the new couple together, Yedam resists the urge to break in tears. After all it was his ex being lovey dovey in front of him with another guy.
"Not now Dami. Control." Hyunsuk pats his back and whispers.
"Since you two look somewhat alike and the visuals are on point so, Asahi and Yoshi. Sorry, don't know who's who." Seeun scratches her nape in embarrassment after guessing.
"It's okay. I'm Yoshi and it's a pleasure to meet you." Yoshi greets her while she replies with equal modesty.
"Asahi here." Asahi gives her a nod, keeping his usual expressions on face.
"Not the talkative type. No problem! Moving on to the tall attractive guy sitting beside my bestie." Jihoon brushes his hair back, ready for his turn as he was sitting on Sihmin's right.
"Must be Haruto Watanabe, my brother-in-law." Jihoon's face falls, Sihmin chokes on air while Haruto's face reddens. He pats Sihmin's back while Seeun clasps her hands together, in awe at the sight of the couple.
"I mean eventually you're going to be my brother-in-law if things go your way." She grins sheepishly.
"No, he'll not." "Yes, he will." Jaehyuk and Yoshi exclaims in unison leaving everyone dumbfounded.
"So he's the captain of their ship." "He's not in favor of their relationship, interesting." Both of them think simultaneously before Jaehyuk clarifies himself.
"I mean I'm still not sure if Watanabe's worthy of Mina or not." Jaehyuk gives an arrogant sneer to Haruto.
"Well I think they're made for each other. Just look at these two." Yoshi comments just as Haruto wraps his arm around Sihmin, embracing her from side to agitate Jaehyuk. Rest of the table agrees with Yoshi while Sihmin curses him under her breath.
"What are you doing Haruto?" She tries to jab Haruto only for him to tighten his hold.
"Giving him a taste of his own medicine, babe." Haruto answers keeping the eye contact with her. Sihmin begins to melt under his gaze but looks away before he could read her expression.
"Let's leave these love birds to themselves and come towards Mashiho and Rami." Doyoung announces and begins to play Q&A with Rami meanwhile Jihoon looks at all of them in disbelief.
"You didn't even try to guess my name. It was my turn." Jihoon whines while pointing his index finger at Seeun.
"Rude boy, don't go pointing fingers at others. Besides I have heard the most about you." Seeun scolds but eventually smirks by the end of her sentence.
"Oh really, Ms Yoon? I mean I agree it's hard to resist my charms." He cheekily brushes his hair back once again.
"Tch tch, playboy alert. Not gonna fall for you, darling." She rolls her eyes and diverts her attention towards the others leaving Jihoon flabbergasted.
"Are you feeling alright?" Breaking the silence between them, Junkyu mutters to Nori.
"Was just feeling blue. Nothing else." She answers, not wanting to make a big deal out if it.
"Why? We can leave if you like." He suggests in a concerning tone.
"Nope. I'm having fun with all of us here. Besides who knows when we'll be able to witness this kind of bonding again." Nori admits, feeling melancholic.
Once she completes the bet, she was afraid everything won't remain the same between Suns and Moons. She didn't want to break the connection which formed after two years of rivalry. She didn't want to break the heart of the one she fell for.
"This bond is life long, Nori-ah. It can't be broken that easily. Don't worry about it. Take care of yourself for now." Junkyu reassures her.
"We've been in a long distance relationship for a year now. Thanks to my uncle, I'm finally here. He helped with the transfer and other procedures." Rami explains squishing Mashiho's cheeks while others look at the cute couple with heart eyes.
"No force can do us apart." Mashiho adds and kisses the back of her hand.
"Fvck myself!" Yedam mutters under his breath and slams his head on the table.
•••
"Her best friend whom I remembered as Mashiro was actually Mashiho." Yedam continues to bawl his eyes out, hugging Hyunsuk meanwhile latter heaves a sigh fed up with the younger one's behavior.
"Stop crying for God's sake. Didn't you already move on from her?" Sihmin asks rhetorically and passes him a tissue.
"She didn't even acknowledge that we were a thing back there." He blows his nose out on the tissue causing Seeun to eye him in disgust.
"What's the deal with him?" She asks Doyoung who was the only one left in the room beside them.
"Rami's his ex. They dated for 4 months when Yedam enrolled for an undergraduate course in Japan. Now she didn't even acknowledge him as her ex. Mashiho was a fresher in TIAH at that time. That's why he's unaware." Leaning towards her, he recites their dating story.
"That could only mean one thing, Rami didn't tell about this whole ordeal." Doyoung nods, agreeing with her judgement.
"Handle him please. I've a few tasks to complete with this guy's help." Sihmin throws the tissue box in Seeun's lap abruptly and rushes out of the room dragging Doyoung along.
"Be quick, bitvh." Seeun shouts behind her and continues to judge Yedam.
