"I'm sure your mom thinks we're crazy."

"But we have a point. I mean, think about it. What if we are just that...reincarnated versions of our uncles?"

Sunoo and Sunghoon sat in the living room of the latter's house, thinking about the earlier conversation.

"I think this is a lot to think about.", Sunoo replied.

"Well we will get our answers. All we need to do is hang out more."

"Is this your way of asking me out?"

"Maybe. That and Jake texted me this morning saying he had extra aquarium tickets for today."

"Today?"

"If you don't want to go, it's fine. I understand. After all, last night-"

"I'm okay now. As long as you're here."

Sunghoon blushed.

"You're cute when you blush."

"I'm going to look like a tomato in a few seconds if you keep complimenting me."

The two laughed.

Sunoo leaned over on Sunghoon's shoulder.

"I'm down for the aquarium. I want to see some sharks anyway."

"Why sharks?"

"They remind me of a certain scary looking boy on the swim team."

"Jake?"

"No, you."

"You think I'm scary?", Sunghoon asked pouting.

"Aww, you're cute when you pout too!"

"It kind of seems like we switched personalities. I'm supposed to be calling you cute 24/7. This is backwards."

"We just found out we may be the reincarnated versions of our uncles and me calling you cute is what's backwards?"

"You're right. Anyways, I'll text Jake and ask him to bring the tickets."

"I bet he's taking Heeseung."

"Oh for sure."

Heeseung was stalking the cafeteria area, which was near the entrance on campus when he was approached by Jake.

"Ready for our date?"

"Shhhh, look over there."

Heeseung covered Jake's mouth, and they both looked towards one of the tables.

At the table sat Jay and Jungwon, with the younger laughing.

"They look so cute. We should play matchmaker.", Heeseung said.

"I wouldn't be myself if I wasn't playing matchmaker."

Jake held up two tickets.

Heeseung watched as he walked over to the table where Jay and Jungwon sat.

After a minute or two of conversation, Jake handed the tickets to Jay and came back over to Heeseung.

"So they're joining us?", Heeseung asked.
