Game - Haechan

³¹

"Yoonna."

The said girl was walking down the corridor with the rest of the Wayv members when a voice called her name. The rest of the members turned their head towards the voice, seeing Mark and Haechan standing nearby. The former was currently pushing the younger one towards their direction, ignoring the younger male who was frowning at him in dissatisfaction.

"He wants to talk to you," Mark smiled innocently.

Haechan coughed in awkwardness, being pushed in front of the female, failing to resist Mark's strength. Remembering that the others didn't know they had practice together privately, he reached out a hand towards the girl, his ears turning slightly red under his hair.

"Umm, hope that we can work smoothly."

Yoonna looked back at Kun and Ten, who snickered at the male as he glared at them. The girl held his hand, playing along with him, shaking it slightly.

"Sure."

"Well then, we will get going. See you guys soon."

Haechan quickly finished his sentence and dragged Mark away, who laughed at their interaction. Yoonna shook her head at their childishness, turning back and entered their practice room.

"Eh eh, Yoonna," Xiaojun hurriedly followed behind, seeing that the girl was going to shut the door. He grabbed her wrist and led her to her seat, making her seat down and poured a cup of water for her before sitting beside her.

The rest of the members sat around her, Yangyang and Hendery plopped onto the beanbag laid beside the table that were used for their leisure. Kun and Ten crossed their arms behind Xiaojun while Winwin stood beside her.

"What? What is with this staring contest?"

Yoonna put down her cup and questioned after they stayed in this position for a few minutes, watching her drank her water. She glanced at Winwin, who shrugged.

Kun sighed, seeing that the members were waiting for him to speak.

"Yoonna, is Haechan still picking on you?"

"No, why?"

"Ah, then its nothing."

Yoonna frowned at them, squinting her eyes as she scanned them before turning her chair towards her computer.

"If nothing else, can I start with the practice?"

"Oh, oh ya." "Okay okay."

The rest of them scattered to their seats, Winwin patted her head and shooed Xiaojun away from his seat. He sat down on his chair, beside the girl's table and held out a letter to her. Yoonna tilted her head in question, receiving the envelope. Winwin smiled at her, averting his sight towards his screen.

"Your salary for the last competition."

"Yes! Now I can add some stuff to my house. Thanks Winwin-ge."

With the sentence ending, everyone logged onto their accounts and started practicing. Cheers and groans occasionally coming out from the room. 

Hope that things will go smoothly...

- Few days after -

The youngsters were now walking into the company after gathering at the dorm, the house at the other end of the corridor. Haechan had went back to his house after receiving a call last night. Although Mark had volunteered to accompany him since it was late night, the younger male had assured that he will be fine by himself and return back soon.

Currently, only the male haven't arrive at the company, the rest of them doesn't have an extra car to drive down the town and find him other than Yoonna. The girl had been driving back and forth from the small town to the city, each journey took around one hour and a half. Although the rest of them felt bad for her, they know that it has to be done to avoid incidents happening.

"Oh come on, it isn't like you don't know him," Renjun exclaimed as the group of boys, along with the girl, walked down the hallways as they headed towards the lift.

Yoonna shook her head.
"No, but I don't think he would be happy to see me at his house."

"But...none of us have a car except for you, and most of us didn't have the time yet to get a license."

Mark groaned in frustration when Haechan didn't pick up his phone for the seventh time. He looked at the girl, pleading her to help them since they need Haechan to be there only then two teams could be formed for their practice.

"Guys, our manager is urging us to go in. We have an impromptu meeting."
Yangyang said from the room. "He wants us in right now."

"But Haechan isn't here yet."

The male popped back into the room possibly to tell their manager about the situation, his head appearing back at the door a few seconds later.
"Hyung ask if Yoonna could go grab him quick. He will record the meeting for the two of them, the CEO is already waiting inside."

Yoonna sighed, giving into their pleads and took out her key.
"Send me his address, I will try to get back as fast as I could drive."

"Thank you Yoonna! You are the best!"

Jaemin hugged her in glee, which the girl swatted him away and leave them to enter the room.

"Remember to pay for my fuel."

Renjun and Chenle snorted at her words.

"You wish!"

"No more coffee for the both of you."

"I take back my words."

Renjun pouted at her figure. The rest of them who didn't understand the conversation looked at each other questioningly.

"Let's head in the room first."

Hendery pulled the youngest two into the room, the rest followed as they started planning on their strategies and tactics for the competition.
