Game - Haechan

²⁴

"Yoonna. Yoonna, wake up."

Her eyelids fluttered open, shutting back at the sudden brightness and blinked a few times to adjust her sight. She turned her head over to see Yoonsu and Yuta on her left, Winwin and the doctor on her right.

"Yoonna, do you feel better?"

Yuta worriedly asked her, a hand held onto her tightly and she squeezed back as an assurance.

"Water please," she croaked out. Yuta passed her a bottle as Yoonsu helped her sit upright, and Yoonna thanked them.

She laid the empty bottle on the bedside, realising that she was currently in her room.

"What happened?"

"You passed out after encountering Haechan, do you remember...?"

Winwin hint, hoping that she wouldn't have another round of memory loss.

"Yeah, he has been hating me since our first encounter. I don't understand, what did I even do to make him hate me?"

Yoonna questioned them, earning widened eyes as the four looked at each other, surprised.

"You finally remembered?!"

"Huh?" Yoonna confusingly watched them giving each other happy smiles.

Yuta grinned, "So the only thing that we needed to trigger her lost memories was Haechan. I can't believe he was someone important in your heart out of all of us, I'm hurt."

Yoonna was so lost when the rest grinned along with him, giving her a knowing look before they left her room one by one, telling her to get more rest.

What the hell is wrong with them.

Yoonna leaned over the counter, sighing as she looked over at the cafe where the customers were enjoying their time on the computers. She didn't understand why she still had to come over to work in this cafe if Kun hired Hendery and Johnny volunteered to help him.

Her sister claimed that she hadn't recovered all of her memories after Yoonna confusingly stated she doesn't remember anything related to the cafe. Now she was here, standing behind the cashier bored. The two older males had errands to run and Kun was in a meeting with the managers.

"Why am I even here," Yoonna complained as she mindlessly tapped her fingers on the counter. An idea creating a new design on the coffee popped into her head and she happily skipped over to the machines.

"I should make the little yellow birds that accompany Snoopy every time in the comic instead!"

Yoonna hummed a tune as she worked on her coffee art, unaware of a customer standing at the cashier watching her every move.

"Holy shit," she flinched, her coffee accidentally spilling onto her apron and she whined at the mess she made. The male rubbed his nape sheepishly, having jolted at her exclaim too out of surprise.

"Sorry Noona," Jisung apologised hurriedly as he rounded the counter to help her wipe the coffee off from the counter, offering her a wet towel to wipe her hands and her apron clean. Yoonna shooed him away after he almost tipped her coffee again when he wiped the counter, and Jisung smiled apologetically.

"Why are you here? Weren't you supposed to be having a competition today?"

Yoonna pointed out sternly. Jisung smiled at the mention of it, showing her his medal he kept in his pocket.

"We finished early, the opponent was your previous company's senior team, Hyari? Or Jyari?"

Yoonna struggled, feeling another white flashing through her head as she held onto it. Jisung panicked slightly, not knowing what to do as it was his first time encountering Yoonna's condition even though Taeyong and Kun had briefly told them what to do if she suddenly fell unconscious after gaining a part of her memores.

"Noona, oh no, what am I supposed to do?"

Yoonna shook her head, one of her hands on his shoulder to gain some support.

"I'm fine, it wasn't as painful as the previous one."

"Are you sure noona? Should I call Taeyong hyung or Yuta hyung just in case?"

"No, don't disturb them. Just help me to the staff room."

Jisung nodded, holding Yoonna to support her as he lightly kicked open the door to the back. He let her sit down on the comfortable couches and grabbed a cup of water from the counter.

"Thanks."

Jisung sat down beside her, watching her pale face gaining some colour back after she finished the water. Yoonna placed the cup on the table, sighing softly.

"Are you feeling better, noona?"

"Yeah...I just remembered some stuff."

"Hyari?"

"Jyari. They were so biased, and unfriendly."

"Do you want to talk? I'm all ears, and I promise I won't tell the others without your permission."

Jisung held three fingers up. Yoonna chuckled at him, nodding before she continued.

"I was the last one joining the team, that alone gave me disadvantages. They already had their main players, so the manager suggested that they don't change for the first evaluation."

"But eventually, the coach started picking on me during training even though I had never touched a keyboard in the company from the start. One of the teammates told me to get used to it, because the player I substitute in for was his nephew, and I was the first and only female player in this industry."

Jisung nodded, understanding where she was coming from.

"Don't worry noona, our company won't make the same mistake like that if you are potential enough."

"I doubt that," Yoonna sighed. "I had made quite a scene during my first evaluation and I'm sure the evaluators weren't please with my performance."

"I have heard," Jisung sympathetically patted her shoulder as a comfort.

"Our coach lectured him for three hours, and I think he liked how you perform despite Haechan hyung's attitude affecting you and the other hyungs' evaluation. If I'm not mistaken, he said he will try to talk with the evaluators out and maybe promote you over to Kun hyung's team first."

Yoonna shrugged, not minding what their decision was in the end, she was more concerned on how to avoid seeing Haechan, again. Jisung smiled slightly, patting her arm slightly as ressurance and changed the topic back to her previous team, making the girl forget about Haechan and ranted on how biased and fake mannered the previous company was.

Yea, that's my sarcastic noona I know.
