"Was that Yuqi with her boyfriend? Or am I seeing things?" AhRin asked me when the two of them had already left the cafe, I was also shocked that they were here at this cafe as well but their conversation tells me that they are having a fight with each other and they shouldn't be having a fight with each other.

They are a couple and I have never seen them fight and even if they do, it is just tiny squabbles that I have seen from time to time and they are really trivial but this fight is not a simple one. I have known Yuqi for a long time and she is not the type to get angry for no reason and she doesn't want to speak to anyone when she is angry and you would not want to mess with him.

It might have been just a simple fight that they had but something tells me that it is not that simple and Yuqi needs some comfort right now and I don't think that Shuhua could be there for her, she might have been hurt as well since Yuqi came back looking angry from that meet up that they had.

"Did you think that they had a fight?" AhRin continued to ask me things that I don't have an answer for and I will only get an answer if I get to talk to her about it.

"Maybe," I said to her. "But I am sure that nothing bad is happening to them, he is the guy that she is planning to marry in the future so he is not going to hurt her that much. If he were to hurt her that much, she would not have stayed loyal to him for so many years."

"I hope so, I am rooting for the two of them and they will last long together." She said to me. "Like how the two of us would."

I smiled. "Let's get home, shall we?"

I drove her home and I dropped her off at her doorstep and I waited for her to get in before I left her place and I immediately texted Yuqi whether if she wanted me to meet me to talk and I won't pester her about it, if she didn't want to talk about it, I will do her a favor and pretend that I didn't see.

I also texted Jungwoo to check up on his wife so that I would know that if it was indeed a serious issue that needed to be talked about, YanAn really didn't seem to be the type to hurt his loved one and I wished that it was just a misunderstanding so I would not have to poke my nose into their affairs.

But I am going to be there for Yuqi whether he likes it or not because she is my friend and I don't want to see her crying, I wasn't able to make her happy the last time and now that she finally found a partner, I would not want her to be sad again.

Jungwoo replied me just before I took the lift, Soojin didn't say anything so it is a very serious issue and I just wondered what did he say to her friends. He might have done something horrible and he didn't know that it would be uncomfortable for her, but I know what exactly is bugging her so that it would be better for me to understand.

I arrived at my place and there was someone sitting on my doorstep and her head was down, I know that exact outfit and the curls on her hair. "Yuqi?" I called her name and she looked up at me, her eyes slightly teary.

She is definitely not in a very good mood and she needs to eat food, food that will comfort her in times like this. I unlocked the passcode on my door and she got in first, making her way to the sofa and flopping herself in the middle and making herself at home.

I didn't say anything to her and I proceeded to cook her ramyeon because that is the only thing that I have in the house and it is the easiest thing to make, if I were to wait for delivery to come, it would be too long and she would get even more upset.

I placed the pot on a piece of cloth and I informed her that I made ramyeon and she should have it quickly before it turns cold and soggy, but she doesn't budge at all and I looked at her, she is curled up in the same position as before and she is not even tempted by food.

I let out a sigh and I took a bite of it, trying to slurp my noodles as loud as possible so that she would hear it and make her feel even more hungrier and she is indeed in front of me, with my blanket wrapped all around her. She sat down next to me and I brought it closer to her and I passed her a clean pair of chopsticks and she immediately digs in without worrying that it might be a little too hot for her, she didn't even wait for me to give her a separate bowl to scoop her portion.

And she doesn't stop eating and she finished the whole thing in less than 10 minutes and she looked at me, telling me that she wants a second portion and I let out a sigh, cooking another portion for her and not forgetting to cook my share in a separate pot so that I will be able to eat it too.

The next 30 minutes is just filled up with slurping noises and we didn't spoke a single word to each other because there is no need to, we are being comforted by food and that is all that it matters to the both of us. Song Yuqi ate 3 packets of ramyeon and I thought that she is going to wipe out my entire week's supply of ramyeon when she finally stops eating and she continues to sit there with a sunken look on her face.

"So what did YanAn even do to you?" I asked her, and she looked up at me and her eyes slowly filled up with tears and I was waiting for the moment that it just poured out without stopping.
