Hidden Truth revealed

Drama

Tzuyu watched Mina disappear into the crowd, her heart heavy with concern. She knew she had hurt Mina's feelings, and the guilt was suffocating.

 Just then, Sana appeared by her side, a questioning look on her face. "Tzuyu, what happened? You look pale". 
Tzuyu took a deep breath, trying to process her emotions....
"Mina unnie... she confessed her feelings to me. Romantic feelings".  Sana's eyes widened in surprise, then narrowed in understanding. "And you told her about us?" Tzuyu nodded, feeling a lump form in her throat. "I had to, Sana. I couldn't lead her on, I couldn't give her wrong idea about me being single, more over I want everybody to know that I'm yours, I belong to Minatozaki sana, but I know I can't, at least not now".

 Sana's expression softened, and she pulled Tzuyu into a gentle hug. "You did the right thing baby. We can't control how others feel, but we can be honest about our own feelings, it's okay, it's fine, don't worry, minari will understand soon".  Tzuyu nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. But as they hugged, she couldn't shake off the feeling that this was only the beginning of a complicated situation....

They hugged for a while, forgetting about everything happening around them, just then someone cleared their throat from behind, Sana and Tzuyu pulled apart from the hug and looked behind, and there was standing 3mix and Dahmochaeng, while momo was clinging onto dahyun, chaeyoung had teasing grin. "Let's go both of you, we're going for the celebration dinner" Nayeon said. "Yes u-unnie" sana stuttered, with a hint of embarrassment. 

All of them went to dine in.... everyone was seating and chatting with each other, mina was yet to arrive. Just then chaeyoung noticed the absence of mina and asked, "Where's mina unnie".
Sana and tzuyu looked at each other, tzuyu was about to say something-

 "Sorry I had to run some errands, but I wouldn't miss the celebration of tzuyu" a voice came from behind.
"Dahyun can you please move to another place; I want to seat with our star of the night, our maknae" mina asked dahyun who was seating at the right side of tzuyu and at the left was sana....

Then mina proceed to seat beside tzuyu.... "Congratulations once again tzuyu-ah" with that she kissed tzuyu's crown, everyone was too shocked at this sudden gesture, or they could say this sudden change of behavior of Mina. Tzuyu was too shocked to speak.

The tension is palpable! Mina's sudden arrival and request to sit beside Tzuyu raised eyebrows, especially Sana's. The kiss on Tzuyu's crown was a bold move, and Tzuyu's shock was evident. Sana's eyes narrowed, her grip on her chopsticks tightening, "Minari, that's quite a... warm greeting," she said, her voice laced with a hint of warning.
 Mina smiled 'sweetly', her eyes locked on Tzuyu's. "Just showing my love and support for our star, Tzuyu-ah". Tzuyu, still in shock, couldn't respond. She felt like she was being pulled into a game of cat and mouse, with Mina making the first move. Chaeyoung, oblivious to the tension, chimed in, "Yes, congratulations again, Tzuyu! You deserve it!"

The table fell into an awkward silence, with all eyes on Mina and Tzuyu. Sana's gaze burned with intensity, while Mina's smile seemed to hide a thousand secrets. 

Mina's hand brushed against Tzuyu's as she reached for the dish in front of them. "Try some of this, Tzuyu-ah, it's your favorite", she said, her voice sugary sweet. Tzuyu's eyes darted to Sana, who was watching the exchange with growing unease. Tzuyu politely declined, trying to create some distance between them. But Mina persisted, her hand lingering on Tzuyu's arm. "Just a little bite, Tzuyu-ah. For me? Please?" showing her rare aegyo.

Sana's patience wore thin, "Mina, I think Tzuyu's made it clear she's not interested," she said, her voice firm but controlled. Mina's smile never wavered. "Oh, Sana unnie, don't be so serious. I'm just showing my affection for our Tzuyu-ah".
