"Um... Kai, Hobi?" Jimin called, a little bit nervous.

Hobi and Kai stopped walking on the hallway and looked at Jimin.

It's another day, another morning, another class. And Jimin was lucky to spot Kai and Hobi was walking to the hallway, so he walked faster so he can walk with them. And Jimin thinks it's the right time to ask the two if he was able to join their shared apartment, and he hoped that he could join because he couldn't find any vacant apartment around their school.

"What is it?" Kai asked curiously as he slung his arms on Jimin shoulder.

"You see, I couldn't find any vacant apartment, so I was wondering if I could join you?" He asked with a little hope in his eyes. "You mentioned lately that only you two in there right?

Hobi and Kai looked at each, as if they are talking mentally.

"Jimin, um-"Kai start but cut off by Jimin

"it's okay if you don't want, I totally understand" he smiled at the two. He noticed how the two were hesitant to answer so he didn't want to raise his hope.

Hobi waved his hands. "It's not like that, Jimin. We just don't know if the landlord will allow it, because she mentioned that her nephew would join as after this semester." He explained sadly.

Jimin just nodded, feeling defeated. But he understood the two, they didn't have the power to dicede about that.

Kai gived him with a cheerful smile when he thought about something. "Don't worry, we will help you to find a vacant apartment."

"Yeah Jimin, we will help you"

In the quiet corners of the library, Taemin and Jihyo found themselves engrossed in a conversation that veered toward the connections blossoming within their circle of friends. The air was filled with the soft rustling of pages as they exchanged glances, both pondering the dynamics of Jimin and Nayeon's growing closeness.

"You know, it's strange," Taemin began, his gaze fixed on the architecture books before him. "Jimin and Nayeon seem to be getting really close lately."

Jihyo, engrossed in her sketchbook, looked up, her eyes reflecting a subtle hint of concern. "Yeah, I've noticed that too. They spend a lot of time together outside the studio."

A moment of silence lingered between them as they processed the implications of their friends' newfound bond. Unbeknownst to Jimin and Nayeon, Taemin and Jihyo couldn't help but feel a twinge of jealousy, a sentiment they hadn't expected to encounter.

"I mean, it's great that they're friends, right?" Taemin remarked, trying to downplay his own emotions.

Jihyo nodded, but her sketching slowed, her thoughts momentarily elsewhere. "Of course, it's great. But... I can't help feeling a bit left out."

Taemin sighed, sharing the sentiment. "Yeah, it's like they have this exclusive connection, and we're just on the sidelines."

"Yeah, looks like they have favorite in this circle"

"See! you noticed that too" Taemin said

"And I don't like like that treatment" Jihyo said with a hint of jealousy "I hate Nayeon"

"Me too, she was too drama queen, always wants Jimin's attention" Taemin replied

"Exactly. She always clinging to Jimin like a leach" she said irritatedly

Taemin rolled his eyes. "Looks like you have crush on Jimin" He joked

"I do" Jihyo said with hesitation
