That was so good.

Daya sighed quietly, dropping her glass bowl on the table. A feast of kimchi jiggae stew was enough to draw her mind away from her present chaotic life. "Thank you for the food", she said to Seungmin and he nodded. He wasn't done with his and Daya washed off her plates, returning upstairs.

Is he causing her much pain?. Seungmin glanced at the stairs where she'd disappeared to.

But it's hard to let her go.

He has an addiction and it wasn't easy getting rid of an addiction. Why did people care anyway?. It's not like he is dating anyone or cheating. So why are they pressed?.

Ah.

"Yesun", Seungmin mumbled. He set his chopsticks down, picking up his phone. Placing it to his ear, he stared into the meal he prepared for them. It was war to get him to go to a kitchen, but he did, today. "Oh, hello. Jisung"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"Can I get Yesun's number?"

"O-oh. You are not about to cause trouble, are you?"

"Trouble?. She stirred up some first"

"Yah, but calm down. This girl knows your mother!. Your mom is backing her. Don't do something rash, for Daya's sake atleast"

There it was. Jisung was always worried for Daya whether indirectly or not. It was never that way. Seungmin let it go. "Alright. But if you'd see her, just tell her to give her boyfriend a detailed explanation of when they started dating"

Jisung chuckled. "Why are you speaking in 3rd person?. You are the boyfriend"

"You really want to give up the ghost, don't you?"

"My bad. No. Just let loose, Seungmin. You aren't a thing with her anyway", Jisung advised and the younger boy's sigh reached him. "If you get this bummed, yah, then how about Hyunjin?. He's had sex with her for quite a long time. And Beomgyu?!"

Seungmin laughed. "I know right. Soobin will kill him if he finds out. Thanks, man"

"Don't mention. Take your time. You can even come back when the dust has settled down a little. There is nothing serious going on in school anyway"

"We are out without permission", Seungmin reminded. They couldn't stay the night even without permission on a norm, as long as you live in the dormitories.

"Minho hyung will get that for you. You just have to pay him well"

Obviously. The boy loved money so much, it was appalling. "Give in a good word for me then. Bye. And please, keep the room neat"

"Will do", Jisung assured with a titter, ending the call.

Seungmin pocketed his phone, getting to his feet and clearing his plates away. As the clean freak he is, he cleaned his plates right away, going upstairs.

Entering the room, he found Daya doing exactly what he wanted to do.

Sleeping.

Nari made her way to the restroom, holding her headsets. Maybe she should have worn it. Passing one of the classrooms along the corridors, she heard Chaeryeong's voice. "You, what's wrong with you?. I get that you relate to Daya so well but this is totally not acceptable"
