Minho POV:

It's been almost two months since the sleepover, since I've moved into this new place, since I've met Hana, Seungmin and Jeongin. Obviously, Hana and I have gotten close, all though she doesn't always match my energy, but I see her put in the effort to carry out a conversation.

Remember those texts Seungmin sent me after the sleepover ?
Those texts still make me wonder why Hana needs someone to keep an eye on her. She seems okay, but Seungmin's text made me a little unsure. I tried to do what Seungmin told me, I mean she's my roommate, so there's nothing wrong in keeping an eye on each other, after all, I'm doing it for her well-being, right? Except there's no each other, just me- looking out for her.

Seungmin and Jeongin call or even text me often, either in common chat groups with our other friends or in personal chats, talking about random things, which usually leads to asking about Hana, but there's nothing much I can say. Because she's almost never free. And, I'm not gonna lie, it makes me feel a little lonely, because it doesn't feel like i have a roommate, but she has her priorities straight. I aspire to be her in studies, which i never was because i was busy doing sports and was not the best at school. I bet Hana could find a way to juggle more than one things even if it meant sacrificing a few other things. 

We did hang out on the weekends, for a few hours, catch breakfast together and talk about random things. Seungmin was right, she might seem boring and quiet, but she can yap- okay, that just sounds like I'm annoyed. Yes, She can talk a lot, but I could hear her voice the whole day. What I mean is that it's better than having her go through her periodic quiet phase. Yes, in my almost 3 months here, it's happened twice already. When I told Jeongin this he said,
"That's just her, she gets like that often because she gets tired every now and then."

My break from training gets over day after tomorrow, that means I won't stay home a lot, and I need to get back to hardcore training again. I've met most of my friends before that happens, and I'm meeting Seungmin, Jeongin, Felix and Hyunjin today. I get ready to go out, but don't forget to feed my cats before i leave.

"Are you leaving?"
I heard behind me suddenly

"Ahh shit- Oh it's you. You scared me. Yes, I'm going out."
I said, keeping a hand over my chest.

"Yeah, Seungmin told me. Where do you go first?"

"Uh- to Jeongin's and Seungmin's house because they want a ride. Seungmin told me you don't want to come. Why?"

"Ah yes, I've got a lot of things to do before Monday. But have fun alright?"
She said, before turning to go back inside

"Hana-ya, wait.
I said holding her wrist, but immediately regretting it and withdrew my hand. 

"We're going to hangout and eat some hot pot, a few drinks maybe. Hyunjin and Felix will be there too, You sure you don't want to come? It'll be fun."

"No, I can't afford to take a break right now. I have too much to do."

"Are you sure? You're always working. Just take a break for one night."

"Not it's okay, of course ill be just fine."

"I might not come home, will that be okay? You won't be alone or bored?"
