"So what, did those two really sleep together?" Momo asks with curiosity in her voice.

"Yeah, they really did," Jeongyeon chuckles. "Those idiots even tried to blame it on alcohol."

"Well, it was so obvious that they were flirting anyway," Nayeon puts a spoonful of rice into her mouth, "They decided to just sleep together before starting to date."

As Nayeon and Jeongyeon proceed to gossip about two friends of theirs, Momo and Dahyun sit across the table and silently listen to them while eating. They've decided to visit a restaurant after leaving practice so late, since none of them have the energy to cook for themselves right now.

"So," Momo picks up her beer, "They're actually dating now?"

"Obviously. They're having the time of their lives," Jeongyeon answers.

"Well, good for them," Nayeon says as she shrugs her shoulders. "It's hard to find your perfect match nowadays."

Momo lets out a small chuckle and then takes a sip of her beer. The foam sticks to her lips and she quickly licks it off in embarrassment, hoping that nobody saw. Well, she's sure that the two older ones didn't, since they're currently drunk and in their own world. But Dahyun did see. In fact, she is still watching Momo with the corner of her eye, looking at the pink tint on her cheeks, the almost fully erased lipstick on her lips.

A few beef skewers and glasses of beer later, they leave the restaurant. Two cars are already waiting for them. They live in two different apartment buildings that are not in the same direction, so the company always sends each pair their own drivers to avoid inconveniences.

"Then, see you guys later," Jeongyeon says as she tries her best to support the drunk Nayeon to their car. "Be careful on your way home!"

"Yeah, goodnight!" Dahyun calls back as Momo waves at them while laughing, making Dahyun laugh too. "Huh, are you laughing at me?"

"Wasn't Jeongyeon just as drunk as Nayeon? How come she's suddenly sober and helping her?" Momo laughs again at the thought of Jeongyeon scolding Nayeon for getting drunk even though she might have drank more than her.

"Well, I guess it's natural to forget yourself when a loved one needs help."

Dahyun's sudden but sweet words make Momo turn her head towards her. Their eyes meet instantly, since Dahyun was already looking at her, but that's no surprise. When is Dahyun not looking at Momo? Perhaps the purpose of those words were just to make Momo look at her. Who knows.

Momo gives her a tender smile and Dahyun returns it with a bigger one. But it's not very nice to make the driver wait, is it? They get startled by a loud honk of the car.

The ride is quiet and comfortable. Seoul is truly beautiful at night, lights from various stores and venders eliminating the darkness of the night. The girls are sitting in the back and looking out the windows. Momo takes a sip of the soda she took with her and then she glances at Dahyun.

"Want a drink?" she asks, holding out the soda can.

"Ah, yeah," Dahyun takes it, "Thanks."

As she puts it to her mouth and drinks, she gets flustered by how Momo is watching her. She feels like she is gonna choke any second now.

"Did you drink a lot?" Momo asks.

"Huh? No?" Dahyun gives the soda back, "It's still half full."
