The long meeting finally concluded as they sorted up with the new composer regarding the distribution of groups and the other things which needed to be settled.

"It's nice to meet you Minho" Hannah said, smiling as he brought forward her hand which Minho shook it.

He didn't react much.

"Uh... Let's go and eat something? It's nearing lunch time and we won't have break after that." Hannah said, trying to ease the tension between them.

Minho simply nodded as they walked out of the meeting room.
"How do you feel it here? It's your first day too." Hannah said, looking up at him as he was looking ahead at the path they were walking in.

"Not bad" Minho said, not looking at her. His tone being slightly cold. Giving her chills.
"Oh that's... Nice" Hannah said and continued "If you don't want to eat with me it's fine, I just asked if you really wanted to."

"No it's fine." Minho said as they got into the cafeteria.

In the early afternoon, the SM Entertainment cafeteria transforms into a vibrant, bustling hive of activity. Sunlight pours through the large, floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a warm, golden glow over the sleek, modern interior.

The scent of freshly prepared meals wafts through the air, a tantalizing mix of Korean dishes and international cuisine, blending seamlessly with the low hum of conversation and the occasional burst of laughter.

Artists, trainees, and staff members, each engrossed in their own worlds, move fluidly between the food counters and the seating areas.

Trainees, with their bright eyes and hopeful expressions, watch their seniors with a mix of admiration and determination, drawing inspiration from their presence.

Hannah and Minho took up their respective plates, selecting upon various options over there. After the selection, they sat up near the entrance door as the only vacant spot.

The meal was silent as they ate. Minho kept his eyes on his plate, focused on his food, while Hannah glanced around the bustling cafeteria, taking in the chatter and movement around them.

Mark stepped in, his hair was drenched in sweat from the exhausting practices to see Hannah with an unfamiliar figure. Not really minding much as he thought it can be some of her friends that she talked of.

As Mark grabbed a few bottles of water and headed back to the practice room, he heard footsteps behind him. Turning around, he saw Hannah hurrying to catch up with him.

"Gosh you walk so fast." Hannah said, panting slightly.
"Oh dude how are you?" Mark asked casually as their footsteps were in sync.
"Good Mork, how about you?"
"Good too"

"So next concert location?" Hannah asked, curious.
"Nagoya, Japan. We're leaving by June 1st for it." Mark said as Hannah nodded.
"Excited?"
"Of course yo"

They got into 127 dance room as Hannah still had time left.
"How's the choreography?" Hannah asked as Mark moved the discarded jackets of his members to a side making room to sit for them.

"It's cool yo, it gives the cool hip-hop vibes you know. The actual concept of 127." Mark said as Hannah nodded.
"Is the choreography hard? Like harder than the previous one?"
"It wasn't that bad but the coordination matters a lot, we're still lacking a bit on that." Mark said.
