Y/n's Pov

Bada has been speaking to Tatter for quite some time now. I wonder what's so serious that got them so engaged in that conversation. One must say that it might be some extreme news that it even got them to pace around the passage like that.

I have been watching g them through my window, and I could see how stressed Bada seems to be. As for Tatter, I normally see her with her hyper, bubbly personality, and it stresses me out to see her this stressed. I know for a fact that if it got Tatter to be this stressed, then it's definitely a big issue.

Just as I was watching them, Amelia's door opened, and she walked out of her apartment. Both Tatter and Bad seem surprised, and they exchange glances, more like scared glances. Amelia looks at them confused and greets them. They greet her back, and she walks up to my door and knocks on it.

I walked towards the door and opened it, and I was greeted by Amelia's smiling faces. Before she could say anything, she turned back around to look at Bada and Tatter for the last time, which caused me to look at them as well. My eyes fall on Bada as we both make eye contact. I flashed a smile on my face for her, and she smiled back, but it was more of a guilty smile. Her face was plastered with nothing but guilt and terror. I then let Amelia inside and close the door to leave Bada and Tatter alone again.

"Woah!? That was a bit weird." Amelia says, and I walk up to the window again to check exactly what was going on. "I know, right? They have been standing there and chatting for about an hour now. I don't know why they can't just come in and chat inside. Worse part, they look terrified and stressed about something." I say with a bit of panic in my heart. I hope Bada isn't hiding anything from me. Her face showed guilt all over. As if she wanted to tell me, but she was scared.

I just hope that I am wrong. "Mmh. I mean, the minute I walked out of my apartment, they immediately stopped talking and looked at me as if they were scared. Anyways, how are you?" I let out a heavy sigh and walked to the couch to sit. Short seconds Amelia joins me. "I'm doing okay, except for the fact that dad texted me today to ruin my entire day." I let out the heavy truth that was caught up on my throat.

"Oh. Well, did he say something to get you angry?" I slowly shake my head. "No, he just told me that he is coming to see me tomorrow. And that I should not tell anyone. But here I am telling you. I haven't even told Bada yet that my dad is coming tomorrow."

"Ahhh, yes. About that. When exactly were you planning on telling me about the Bada and your issue?" A smile slowly creeps to my face as I make sure to avert my gaze from Amelia. "It just happened too fast that I didn't get the chance to tell you." I blush while expressing my small confession.

"Oh really? Mmh... alright then, I will forgive you this time around." We both let out a chuckle, and before we know it, my front door opens. And there, Bada and Tatter coming inside my apartment. With that, Amelia and I both stand up from the couch.

"Ohh, you guys are done talking?" They exchange glances before Bada walks up to me and places her hands on my hips and kisses my forehead. "Yes, we're done. Sorry for taking too long. We had something important to discuss, and it involved my family, so I was caught up." My heart immediately sinks, and I reach up to touch her cheeks. "Is everything okay? Is your family fine?" I ask with a worried expression on my face. I can't believe I doubted her, and she was only worried and stressed because of her family.

"Ahm, ye-yes. They are fine." She replies. "Anyways, I was thinking of us going to dinner tomorrow. You're in for that?" I squint my eyes after she said that.

"You know, that's not a proper way to ask someone on a date." I say to her playfully. She laughs as she throws her head back. "Is that a yes, madam?" She asks with a smirk on her face.
