Mina's P.O.V.
"You made me change outfits three times! Is it good now?"

YES. "If you had let me help you with it, you would've been successful on the first try."

"I'm literally in the same thing I wore to walk the dog, but in a different color."
Exactly.
"What was wrong with the other things I pulled, huh?"

Everything! "Who wears a dress shirt to meet a baby? Also, the things we had on this morning had dog hair on them. I don't know if he's allergic to dogs and I don't plan on risking it."

"That's fair.."
His confusion got replaced with a smile, wrapping a scarf around my neck.
"You're being very cautious, and I'm sure they appreciate it."

When you say it like that..
"Too much?"

"Maybe just a little bit. A mask is a good idea, but you don't have to apply hand sanitizer all the time, unless you touch your face or something." Okay.. Okay.

I appreciated the honesty. "What if I don't remember that I touched my face, and I end up touching him right after?"

A chuckle. "Babe, the kid won't die. You're not even sick. You're getting anxious."

"I know, but still."
I wasn't getting there, I was anxious.
"He's so tiny, and fragile, and precious. Dawn-ssi and eonni would be so upset."

Joonie kissed my forehead and picked up what we were bringing over to their place. "Right now, they're gonna be happy to see us and not have to cook. Okay?"

Fiiiine. "You're so positive today."
I locked the door, and we made our way to the elevator.

"Because we're spending time with our friends, and we don't have to worry about being late to anything after it."

"That is a very good point, Handsome."
I'd make him even happier then.
"Want to drive?"

"Yes, please! I'll be careful. I promise." You're paying for the damages if there are any, Mister.

"Want us to help with anything?"
I think my boyfriend and I glared at them at the same time, because Jessi raised her hands.
"Sorry I even asked, jeez! Our baby boy is napping, I figured we could be useful."

Joon stole the words from my mouth. "You not lifting a finger is how you can help. Enjoy your coffee, ask us questions if you'd like. Anything you want."

I handed him the ingredients I chopped to put them in the pan. "He's right, eonni. We're here to see all of you, and have a nice chat."

"M'kay, theeeeen.." She sat on her bistro chair, at the kitchen isle.
"I'm looking for gossip. Got any? Something that hasn't been posted on social media, because it's literally what I'm watching all day. Hmm? Do you?"

"Do we?" My partner and I maintained eye contact for a while.
Many things happened, the question was: what is okay to share? He started with something mild.
"We watched the first episode of Masked Singer with the guys and we can't agree on who the green team is. The second aired last night, but I doubt watching it will help us come to an agreement."

"You're having trouble?"
Jessi grinned. "I have my own guesses, but it is a very difficult season! So many teams have me confused. One is too obvious."

Don't react, just ask. "Really? Which one?"

"Come on! You can't tell me the yellow team isn't Taeyeon and Kibum."

It made so much sense! "Wait, wait, wait. Can you put that song they did together? Hate me. I just need a refresher."

"Sure, girl!"
She played it on her phone.
"So, am I right?"
