Pleasant Imagines (Jinjoo)

Housewarming (short)

"When are they reaching?" Yena restlessly lies on her couch with her phone above her. Ignoring the risk of it falling, she kills time by playing Kart Rider. 

A few minutes later, a little tune starts playing, causing her to leap out of the couch. She goes to the digital panel to see nothing but white.

"Hm?" She wonders if it's spoilt but soon saw Yujin's dimple smile filling the screen. "That scared me." Her hand went to her chest.

"Unnie!"

Yena spams the button to end the call, unlocking the glass doors in the lobby. "She's still so loud." She camps at the door, looking through the peephole.

She saw Yujin carrying a whole stack of toilet paper and behind her was her other guest. A girl she has never seen in a long time.

She opens the door, instantly having Yujin squeeze her way through. "Unnie!" She threw herself onto Yena, potentially suffocating the latter with her tight hug.

Minju held the door open while taking off her shoes. "You're not going to take off your shoes?"

"Ya! I just cleaned the floor!" Yena peels off the girl who listens, tossing her shoes by the door.

"You two came together?" Yena looks at the two of them, earning nods.

Minju takes the time to look around the new apartment as Yujin closes the door. The younger girl shoves the stack of toilet paper into Yena's arms. "Yuri unnie said you didn't get these. I made sure to give you a few months' supply."

Yena inspected the tissues. "I don't think this will last a month with how many of you are coming here." She settles it aside and thanks the girl.

"What's that?" She points at the small cooler bag Minju was holding.

"Baskin Robbins."

Yena gasps softly, reaching her arm out for it. "Good sense." She gave Minju a thumbs up, going to the kitchen so she could put the tub of ice cream into the freezer.

Yujin plops onto the couch as if it was hers. "Unnie, can I stay here? It's so quiet." She stares at the ceiling, getting her leg slapped by Minju who wanted to sit.

Yena came to the living room, shaking her head frantically. "I don't need another Chaewon," she said. "I don't get it. You guys have your own dorms and it's bigger. Why do you guys always want to stay here?" She complains.

"Then can I stay here? I don't have a dorm." Minju smiles innocently, earning an unamused glare.

But Yena goes, "You are an exception. You're welcome to stay here, Minju-ah."

Yujin sat up. "Why does she get to stay here? You're not staying here." She told Minju.

"I'm not going to listen to you. I'll stay here." The brunette sticks out the tip of her tongue as a pillow flew onto her lap.

"Minju's quieter," Yena said. "I bought this place so everything would be quieter."

"But you can't live alone."

"That's why I have Chaewon. But that doesn't mean you get to do anything like that." She warns Yujin who could only pout. "Tell me before you come. Don't come here unannounced or I'll actually kill you."

"Harsh," Minju mutters, finding the tv remote.

Yujin lies back on the couch, sighing. "I'll figure out the passwords to this place." Oh, she was determined. 

A ping was heard as Yena looks at her phone. "Uh oh."

"What is it?" Minju looks at her.

"I have to go for a fitting."
