         Seungmin was upset all day about what to do. He skipped the school for preparation. Nothing was there to prepare but, he had to know beforehand where he would take her. As his dad mentioned he was the one to prepare this day. 
         Seungmin was angry for sure but he too knew, it wasn't something that his dad would plan. If this had happened a few years ago, he might have cursed him. But now he knew the truth.
         For a day, he couldn't think of anything else. As in a hurry, he forgot to charge his phone. That's when Yoona called him. He was already at a venue, finding a good spot to charge his phone. Well, the hall was booked, but the boy didn't have a charger. He called someone from the house to bring him it. And that took time.
        As planned he had to go to pick Ahn at 7:30 PM. Already everything is decided. He kept his phone there and left for the given mission. With half-hearted!
         On Hyunjin's date. He arrived at the place itself on time. He didn't have to get a girl as being there was all satisfaction to them. Before he entered, the phone was taken. ( Then how he talked with Seungmin)
         At about 8 PM both dates sat with their partners. Ahn was excited with lots of planning in her mind. And Seungmin didn't want to mess with anything, not to break Ahn's heart and his parent's wishes too.
         Hyunjin sat in front of Yeoseol, staring at her. And in reply, she too was staring. Yeoseol is also a planned future wife of Hyunjin. To which Mr Hwang opposed from the very start. But as if it wasn't heard, he was getting ignored every time.  
          Then how did Hyunjin break free from this? Since when they were child, Hyunjin and his future wife would fight over little things. Not only verbally but they both tried to harm each other physically. They are not likely to each other. Hence their parents decided not to make them talk to each other.
          As for now, when they were in High school,  the old men tried to make their plan work. It didn't go well. They argued every time they met. But still, the old men tried to accompany what they wanted.
          Hyunjin and Yeoseol had the same plans so they decided to co-operate. They would go on dates when they planned and just scrolling through their phone not getting involved with each other.
          But this time, as if those old men knew, they denied them to have phones. Hyunjin sat there folding his hands, looking at her as if, it was all her fault.
          No talks, just food and deadly stares. Yeoseol and Hyunjin didn't want to walk on what others decided, and being with each other was a sign that they were playing how others wanted them to. That was the reason they hated each other the most. But after getting adult they knew, it wasn't their fault. But working together was far more than enough.
           About half an hour, Mrs. Hwang entered. She was surprised to see, that not only they were sitting peacefully but not even a single thing had been destroyed. She smiled looking at both of them.
           "Oh, Aunt Hwang!" Yeoseol hugged her.
           Hugging her back with a smile, Mrs Hwang took out something from her bag. The cellphones of those two. The dull face got brightened.
           "Oh, mom! You are the best!" Hyunjin hugged his mom as if she was his saviour.
           "Thanks your dad!" Said his mom winking.
           Hyunjin giggled. And Mrs. Hwang left. Gesturing them both to enjoy the date.

          While here Seungmin was having dinner with Ahn. Ahn had a lot to talk about. From school to college. Yes, their childhood stories. Which involves Seungmin too. And he was laughing too, remembering how the days passed by.
           This was the only best thing when they two met. The talks of memories. Ahn had a beautiful collection of memories. And she loved only to share them with Seungmin.
            Seungmin's laugh made her day. Spending time with him is what she loved the most.
          "Shall we take pictures?" Ahn asked.
          "Ah, sure!" This was the time only when Seungmin realised he didn't have his phone.
           Ahn asked for a few poses and Seungmin helped her with it. And then telling her to get his phone he left. He came to the place where he kept his phone, only to find it was turned off.
           He opened it and found, he had a call from his girl, "Nyangi 3 missed calls". Seungmin was taken aback by this. Well, this was all he wanted. But having a busy day he didn't find time to call her. He dialed the number forgetting that he was on a date with someone.
           The ring lasted for a minute but Yoona didn't pick up. He tried again. He went to text her when found, that Hyunjin was online. What? How can he? Didn't he go on a strict date? He called him, expecting he would answer his question.
          Not get a satisfactory answer but only a brief explanation that she was on a date with Felix he cut the call. Hyunjin was angry with him, well he have full rights. Seungmin was avoiding Ahn with reasons of Hyunjin. And so he had to go on a date because of him.
         Seungmin was about to call Felix when Ahn came calling his name. And he hid his phone. He followed her back to his date.
         A few minutes later, about 9:30 PM. Seungmin had to walk her around the date hall. He was done with all. He didn't want to spend more time knowing all Ahn meant to end this with Romance. And he doesn't feel a thing toward her. He was finding a reason to leave. But it's not that he wasn't enjoying it. Chaewon was his childhood friend and you never get bored with them. It's just as always been in past. he didn't mind spending his time with her.
