It was another day and our second day at work.

We arrived early in the store to fix the tables and chairs and the ice creams that was delivered to be placed in the freezer.

We opened and there wasn't any customers yet. A group of teenagers came in after an hour.

"Omo! Unnie, you're UNIQ's girlfriend, right?" The first girl said happily.

"Jinja? She's the girl that you're telling me?" The second girl ask.

"Yes! Isn't she pretty?" The first girl answered.

They were making their googly - eye look to me and I jerked backward.

"Trish is there - oh, hi there." Wenhan went out from the kitchen and greeted the girls.

They were squealing when they saw Wenhan. He silence the girls and took their orders.

They chose their seats and was stealing glances to Wenhan who was standing beside me.

"I'd rather stay in the kitchen. I'll take your place and you take mine." I smiled widely and he was about to protest but I was already in the kitchen.

Seceral minutes later, I heard the door chimed. I peeked and saw Wenhan was already cleaning the table where the girls ate.

-------------

Evening came and we didn't sell much because of the cold weather. We cleaned the place and said good bye to Laticia.

We arrived home and saw Sungjoo was in the living room, lifting weights that Wenhan was using.

"Omo! Sungjoo, do you have a girlfriend?" I smirked.

He lost his balance and the weights that he was holding almost fell as to what I said.

I snorted when he became weak and can't lift the weights properly.

"Aish. You're losing my concentration." He frowned and regain his strength and started lifting again.

"Wenhan, why don't you teach him how to lift? He looks like he's constipated by lifting those." I acted like I was a gym instructor.

"Yah!" Sungjoo said and slowly placed the weights in the floor and went to the kitchen.

I chuckled and went to my room to change.

I went out and saw Seongyoun went out too from their room.

"Oh, annyeong noona." He greeted me with a cheerful smile.

He passed by me and I smelled his perfume. His 'breath taking' perfume.

What is wrong today? These guys are acting like they're impressing.

I went to the kitchen and saw Yixuan, making mango shake with pearl or in short, same as mango tapioca.

"Oh, hi there." He greeted me.

"Hello. Uhm, is there something wrong?" I frown.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Your kids are acting strange." I said plainly.

"Oh, you mean 'our' kids?" He said.

Seriously? This guy too?

I exhaled and went to the living room.

Yibo was doing his yoyo trick and was doing perfectly. His face was - well, you know, no emotion. At all. It's like that was what he was doing all of his life.

Picture this: Sungjoo was lifting weights, Yibo was doing his yoyo trick in the opposite side of Sungjoo, Wenhan was doing his push ups in the middle, and Seongyoun was in the couch, taking selcas.

I went to the balcony and put my earphones on. I looked at my phone and saw my Instagram account, where TOP oppa was posting his picture.

I chuckled at his posts since he used the same picture, but he was just cropping it.

I saw one of his posts that a fan commented, "eyes, nose, lips! oppa, saranghae!" but he didn't reply.

"Oppa, I like your eyes. saranghae!" I commented in his photo.

I felt my phone vibrated indicating I have a notification.

"Thank you, Trish. Saranghae! Hope to see you soon." He replied.

While I was reading, I choked at what he said. He even mentioned my name! My friggin' name!

"Yah! Are you pregnant?!" I heard Seongyoun screamed in the balcony door.

I almost fell from my chair and he started to laugh.

"What is your problem?" I stood up, arms crossed and eyebrow raised.

"Nothing. I'm just getting your attention." He smirked and went back inside.

It has been a boring night for me so I went to my room and took my book out from my bag and sat down in my bed and read.

I was already halfway in reading when I saw my door open.

"Dinner's ready." Sungjoo mouthed the words since I'm wearing my earphone.

I nodded in reply and read the last sentence to end my reading.

"Love was a dance floor, where everyone you lost left a mark behind." (this passage came from the book 'Teardrop' written by Lauren Kate)

I went out and saw that we have guest.

"Lee Min Ho? Yah! The Lee Min Ho?!" I said in surprise, obviously can't keep my chill.

"Yep. Annyeong!" He greeted.

Omo~ Gu Jun Pyo greeted me.

"Ne, a-annyeong."

We sat in the dinning and talked casually, while I suddenly ask Sungjoo why was he here.

"I dunno." He said flatly.

The conversation was light and we chuckled when Lee Minho was making jokes.

After we ate dinner, I offer to help arrange the table but since they know that I was curious as to why Lee Minho was here, they all gave time to both of us to talk for a while.

We sat in the couch and I suddenly blurted out, "Why are you here?" in the inappropriate tone.

His eyebrow raised and I was now shocked at what I just said.

"I-I mean, why are you here in a nice tone. I didn't mean to-"

"She's nervous when she stutter." I heard Yibo said in the kitchen doorway.

I smiled shyly and he understood.

"Nothing. I just wanted to visit since UNIQ has also been very popular these days." He said with a smile.

"Hi, I'm Tricia." I offer my hand.

"Nice meeting you." He said and accepted to shake hands.

We converse for a while and it was time for him to go since it was already late.

He said good bye and thanked them for the dinner.

Yixuan locked the door as he usually do, Wenhan and Sungjoo locked the balcony door and closed the curtains and Yibo and Seongyoun was in the couch, waiting for them to finish.

I said good night to the boys and headed back to my room.
