An arranged marriage of convenience...

A fake couple...
""If it's only for one day...""
Two girls forc...
NAKYOUNG ASKED HER YOUNGER SISTER IF SHE KNEW SOOMIN.
Hyerin looked at Soomin in thought, "Uh... I think so...? Are you in Mr Seo's Chem class?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
Soomin chuckled awkwardly and shook her head, "No. I'm in your Music class, though."
Hyerin didn't seem to be embarrassed, rather her eyes widened in realisation and she clapped her hands together. "Oh! You're the guitar girl." She pointed at Soomin, "You're friends with the martial arts girls aren't you?"
"Uh, yeah." Soomin chuckled shyly, taking a sip of water.
Nakyoung held in her laughter and looked between the two, "Cool, so, Hyerinie, do you mind if you hang with Soomin for a while? Yubin's coming over and i'm sure Soomin doesn't exactly need babysitting."
Hyerin hesitated for a second, but nodded nonetheless. "Yeah, sure. Bring your stuff." She motioned for Soomin to follow her.
It was a little weird having someone you've never spoken to before, nevermind barely remembering their face, in your own room; A place that's supposed to be intimate and personal.
Hyerin's room was small and fit a single bed, a desk and was left with a spot for a small circular carpet on the floor. It was decorated with whites and purples, a few plants here and there. It was small, but cozy.
"So... Why'd you need babysat?" Hyerin asked as she cleaned up a few things in her room.
"My sister's getting married, so she's meeting her fiancé today. My mom wanted me out of the house." She explained simply, placing her bag gently onto the floor.
"Ahh, i see." Hyerin's mouth formed an 'O' shape as she nodded, "Arranged marriage?"
Soomin nodded and watched the girl tidy her desk.
"You can sit, by the way. The bed's fine." Hyerin offered a smile as she did so, finishing up cleaning her desk.
As Soomin sat on the edge of her bed, Hyerin soon joined her by sitting in the middle with her legs in a basket.
"What do you normally do in your free time, then?" Hyerin asked once again.
"Uh... I don't know, um, anything?" Soomin questioned herself, "I watch a lot of movies when i'm alone."
Hyerin nodded and her eyes went wide, "Me too!"
The pair talked about movies for about half an hour, before actually watching one. They decided that it wasn't a good idea to watch a horror, but a comedy instead.
Soomin still felt a little awkward with Hyerin, considering their difference in social status, but had a lot of fun nontheless.
"You know, i wonder how that lunch with my sister is going." Soomin mentioned after their first movie.

WHEN IT TURNED TWO O'CLOCK, the doorbell of Seoyeon's parents' house rang throughout as Seoyeon herself looked in the mirror about a thousand times.
She didn't come down from her room until her mother called her from below. "Seoyeon, honey!" Her mother's voice sounded more polite and sweet than it usually did.
Seoyeon took one last glance in the mirror of her room before heading down the stairs.
When she turned the corner, she looked up at the three figures standing by the kitchen. She froze up for a second, as did her brain, but she shook it off rapidly and politely greeted them.
She firstly shook hands with the man and woman, who called themselves parents, with another polite smile.
When she went to shake hands with her new fiancé, she examined her face. Her thoughts were confirmed once she seen the woman's eyes. They weren't quite something she could forget easily.
Seoyeon narrowed her eyes at the woman, silently telling her that she'd be having a chat with her later. But she had her back turned so no one else could see.
When it was time for them to sit down and eat something, Seoyeon's mother had a chef to prepare something before hand. It wasn't something she did regularly, but on special occasions.
Throughout the meal, it was basically just the parents talking; Bragging about their daughters, who sat uncomfortably in their seats.
The two girls occasionally glanced at each other, trying to read what the other was thinking during it.
"Oh, yes, that was quite the meal." Yooyeon's father silently applauded as he wiped the corners of his mouth with a white napkin.
Seoyeon's mother chuckled delightfully, "Yes, i thank our wonderful chef, Miriam." She nodded as they carried on their conversation about Miriam from Egypt.
Seoyeon cleared her throat as delicately as she could and rose from her seat, "Excuse me, uh, hope you don't mind if i get some fresh air for a minute?"
Yooyeon followed suit and stood from her chair, her eyes desperate, "I'll come with you."
"Oh, of course, sweetie. A good opportunity for you both to get to know each other." Seoyeon's father nodded at the two sweetly.
Seoyeon noticed that it was the first time throughout the whole meal that she saw a real smile.
