-10 AM-

-Jake's House-

"Hey there!"

He smiled widely. This was a sign that he was happy to see Ye-un. She waved back at him. She didn't know what to reply as it was her first time over at someone's house other than Sunghoon's. Jake noticed that and spoke up.

"Come in, what are you waiting for"

He laughed which made Ye-eun laugh too. She was greeted by Jake's mom right after she stepped in.

"How are you dear? It's so nice to meet you again"

She smiled and pulled in for a hug. Ye-eun hugged her back.

"It's so nice to meet you too Mrs.Sim, I'm great!"

They broke the hug.

"Do you want something to eat?? I'm making cookies right now!! Did you have your breakfast??"

Jake started laughing. Ye-eun gave out an awkward smile looking back and forth at laughing Jake and the considerate mom.

"No, it's fine Mrs.Sim, I had my breakfast before arriving. But I indeed am looking forward to trying those cookies!"

She smiled.

"Sure it'll be ready soon"
.
She replied.

"Mom, can you deliver it upstairs in my room? We'll be there"

Jake asked and his mom agreed.

"Come let's go"

Jake said grabbing her hand and walking upstairs.

"So this is my room!"

He said letting Ye-eun enter the room first. He entered the room behind her closing the door.

-YE-EUN POV-

His room didn't look like how I expected it to be. I expected a messy room with clothes disorganized. Rather it was neat and clean with Polaroid garlands above the bed and yellow string lights on all sides of the room. It felt like heaven.

"Did you expect a messy room?"

He asked, laughing.

How the hell did he know?

I tried denying the fact that I thought his room would be a complete mess.

"No- I didn't have such expectations but at the same time I didn't expect your room to look this good"

"Yeah I know, I love myself a tidy room. It took me so long to organize everything to my liking. It was worth the time spent"

"Yeah I can tell"

I said as I took another look at the whole room. He went ahead and sat on his bed.

"Have a seat"

He said as he patted the bed, indirectly asking me to sit next to him. I didn't hesitate a bit and sat next to him. Silence filled the room for a while. We both were looking down not knowing how to start a convo. It was awarded. I decided to put in a word first. I looked at him at the exact moment he looked at me seeming to say something. Our eyes met, and we didn't break contact for a while. Starting at each other like that I busted out laughing followed by him.

"It's so awkward"

I said covering my mouth with my palm trying to control my laughter.

"It indeed is"
