Girl, Get up.

Chapter 40

By the time Minji and the girls get to the cafeteria, they can see that Yunjin and the three musketeers+ gang are already friendly with each other. Minji moves away from Haerin and goes to Hanni to whisper something in her ear.

"See, I told you she'll be fine," Minji said smugly, Hanni laughed and swatted Minji's shoulder. Haerin sees in the corner of her eyes that Hanni's head leaned in closer to Minji's head, both of them tap the side of their heads together and laugh.

"I can see why you thought they were going out before," Dani says to Haerin as they both watch the two girls in front of them.

"Mhm," Haerin says as she keeps her eyes on the girls, they keep whispering to each other and she sees that Hyein has joined both of them in whatever it is they're doing.

"$20" she hears Hyein say. Hanni looks like she's deciding something, Minji shakes Hanni's shoulder and looks at her. The girl shakes her head when Hyein and Hanni both shake each other's hands in agreement

They reach Minji's group of friends and they can hear that Yunjin and Chan are yelling at each other, Hyewon is egging both of them and Felix is watching from the sideline (he's just happy to be there) Chaewon has her hands holding her temples

"Hey guys! Are you guys enjoying the Yunjin special?" Minji says as she joins them at the table, she puts her arms on Yunjin's shoulder and sneakily puts the girl in a chokehold. Yunjin's arm flailed around as she didn't expect Minji to get her like that, everybody at the table laughed at the two, except Haerin. She's still watching Minji, she watches as the girl in front of her is different than what she's used to. She's not used to seeing Minji being so friendly with people outside of her usual friend group, she's more playful, touchy and loud compared to how she was before she left.

"Minji, please take Yunjin away," Chaewon says with a groan, Yunjin pouts at the girl, Chan puts his arms around Yunjin and pretends to comfort the girl. Chaewon glares at Chan and he immediately takes his arms off of Yunjin. Minji laughs and asks the group what Yunjin has done now.

"Her and Chan are using cheesy pickup lines on, Chae," Felix says as he happily greets the other girls. He pats the seat beside him for Hanni to sit and the girl thanks him and sits down.

"And I'm guessing Hyewon isn't helping the situation," Minji says with a laugh as she sees Hyewon with a mischievous smile, Hyewon looks at Minji and bats her eyes at her.

"I'm making it better" Hyewon smiles, she looks at Minji and both their eyes twinkle with excitement. Minji moves to Hyewon's side and wraps her arms around the girl, she looks at Hyewon and bats her eyes at her.

"Did we go to school together? Cause I could've sworn we had chemistry" Minji says, using an overly sweet tone to the girl. Hyewon puts her hands on her chest and slightly gasps

"Let me tie your shoes. I don't want you falling for anyone else" Hyewon says as she pretends to tie Minji's shoes. The action between the two makes the group laugh. Chaewon groans and complains about how childish they're being right now.

"Are you a magician? Because when I look at you, everyone disappears" Hanni joins in with Minji and Hyewon, Yunjin high-fives Hanni and Minji leans over the table for Hanni as she extends her hands out to her.

"Your hands look heavy, can I hold it for you?" Minji says as she reaches out to hold Hanni's hand, Hanni giggles at her. The older group continues with their cheesy pickup line contest while Hyein, Dani, and Haerin watch them.

"Do you think Hanni-unnie has used those pickup lines on someone before?" Dani asks as she watches Hanni and Yunjin continue with their pickup lines, Chan tries to join them but Hyewon and Minji push him away and cheers on both the girls.
