"For one who advised me severally against Seungmin and his likes, you sure do, do same", Daya commented that Saturday evening, while they were making dinner.

Nari mixed the salted vegetables together. "Huh?"

"What's up with you and Hyunjin?"

"What are you on about?. Nothing, Daya", Nari replied, she picked out some carrots and fed the girl. "Did it blend nice?", she nodded, chewing it up. Nari smiled to herself. At this rate she will be a great cook.

"Seungmin told me to tell you to give Hyunjin a listening ear. That means something, no?", Daya met her eyes briefly, cracking an egg into a huge bowl.

Nari scoffed. "There is absolutely nothing between us. I deal with emotions so I can't do whatever they love girls to do"

"I'm glad you still work that way", Daya smiled. "Let him be for the girls like me. The emotionless ones"

Nari laughed, "You are far from being emotionless you know. This sweater I have on, says so"

Daya let her gaze fall to the black and white striped sweater she gifted her on her 22nd birthday. She knitted that with so much love. She bit her bottom lip to stop her smile from showing. Nari simpered, she pulled the oven open and pulled out a baked buttered chicken, all brown and crispy.

"Isn't this much food meant to be saved for Sunday?"

"I will be busy tomorrow", Daya replied, moving to the pan above the low heat of the stove, still whisking the huge batter of eggs.

"Busy?", Nari asked suspiciously.

Daya poured the eggs into the pan. "You heard me, Nari-sshi"

Nari's lips pulled in a big, bad smirk. She quickly stood next to the older girl. "Ah~~, I see. Seungmin asked you to come over?"

"He didn't spell it out but I will be going", Daya moved the eggs about in the pan by shifting the pans in different directions.

"But... isn't that risky?", Nari folded her arms across her chest. "If you get caught?"

"Yah, I won't", Daya exuded a convincing confidence. She rolled the eggs up with her chopsticks, letting both sides cook. "I don't know what's up with you and Hyunjin for Seungmin to even talk to me about it, but listen to him first", Daya advised. She removed the pan from heat. "Turn the gas off for me please", standing behind the counter, she carefully placed the rolled egg on a cutting board and with a neat knife, she cut it up nicely into sizeable square shapes of egg rolls.

When she was done, she packed them into a neat container. Turning to Nari who still stood by the gas, a snicker left her. "Yeah, I'm sure something is going on. Be careful, Nari-ah. Dish the rice into the containers while I take a quick bath. I smell like curry and onions", she complained, going towards the bathroom.

Nari pursed her lips in a pout. "I said nothing is going on, unnie"

Why can't she believe me?.

Because something is going on, but it wasn't known to her yet.

Two girls walked over to dorm 6, with beautifully wrapped boxes in their hands. They, like always, complained about the steps.

Dayeon was sure going through a lot.

Daya knocked on room 984. It opened and Hayun smiled at the seniors. "I'm see you are free of the pins today", Daya chuckled, walking in.
