At the Arcade:

"What should we play?" Shua asked everyone.

"Hmm, I want to play the shooting game," I said excitedly.

"Me too!" Dino and Wonwoo chimed in simultaneously.

"Alright, we need one more person since it's a two vs. two game. Shua, care to join me?" I looked at Shua with puppy eyes, hoping he'd join me.

"Of course," Joshua said, patting my head. "Yes! Let's go."

"Alright, how should we choose our teams?" I asked.

"Me and Dino, you and Shua hyung," Wonwoo suggested.

"Okay, watch out! You guys are going down," I said, smirking at them.

"Shoot, Oppa!" I shouted as we left one zombie to kill before winning the game.

"Yes, we won!" Wonwoo and Dino sighed, looking defeated. "Alright, good job, Areum noona. You're pretty good," Dino complimented me. I smiled at Joshua, feeling happy about our victory. After finishing, we went to find the others.

We saw Mingyu, The8, and DK playing a basketball game.

"Ya, S.H.O.T, shoot!" Mingyu shouted at DK to throw the ball in. I chuckled at his silliness and the fact that he spelled "shoot" wrong.

"S.H.O.O.T, shoot," Shua corrected Mingyu.

"Jinja?" Mingyu said, looking confused which made me laugh.

Arisa's POV:

Fifteen minutes later, Scoups came behind us and asked, "Alright, guys, should we go eat lunch?"

"Yes, please, I'm starving," Vernon said. We went downstairs to get some food and decided to order a big portion of Rose Tteok-bokki and some ramen.

"Mm, that was so good. I miss Korean food too much," I said as I finished my last bite of ramen.

"Which university did you go to, Areum?" Mingyu asked me.

"Oh, I went to Yale and studied business because I didn't really know what I wanted to do yet, but now I kind of know. My parents have always pressured me to take over their company," I explained. Talking about this made me feel a bit uneasy, and then I felt someone rubbing my back—it was Hoshi. I think he knew how I felt about this because my parents always pressured me to take over the company. I smiled softly at him, reassuring him that I'm fine.

After lunch, we all went to watch a movie.

"We can watch Meg 2 since it just came out, and I heard some really good reviews about this movie," I suggested, and they all agreed.

"Tickets for 14 people, please," Scoups said as he bought the tickets. While Scoups handled the tickets, I talked to some of the guys to get to know them better. I was really glad Hoshi brought me out today; it was great to get to know them and make new friends.

"I got it. Let's go watch the movie," Scoups said as he passed us the tickets.

I sat between Hoshi and Shua during the movie, and halfway through, I felt a head on my shoulder—it was Hoshi. He must have been really tired from all the training for their upcoming comeback. Throughout the whole movie, I didn't move so as not to disturb him.

"Hoshi-ya, it's time to wake up. The movie has ended," I said softly.

"Uh, Areum ah, sorry. I don't know why I suddenly fell asleep," Hoshi apologized.

"It's okay. I know your comeback season is near, so you must be tired from all the training," I reassured him.

Soon, we left the theatre.

"Thanks, guys, for meeting me today. I had so much fun, and it was great getting to know you guys!" I told them as we were about to head back. They had an early schedule tomorrow, from what I heard just now.

"No problem, Areum. We had fun too, right guys?" Hoshi asked.

"Yep," everyone agreed.

"Annyeong, Areum ah. See you in 2 days," DK waved goodbye to me.

"Oh, annyeong," I waved back at the guys.

I drove back home, took a quick shower, and got some rest. I was still a bit jet-lagged from the plane ride, so I needed to fix my body clock. Today was fun, and I'm really excited to start work on Monday—it seems like it will be more interesting than I expected.
