HEARTLESS KISSERS

Two

“Hey sweetie, have you heard?” Darren asked his girlfriend. They are on a secret late dinner date right now. The schedule today was too full; this is the only time where Irish can see her boyfriend after so many weeks.

“heard what?” Irish fixed her cap and took a sip of her cola. She did not remove the cap even when eating. Although the place is private, she needs to be extra careful so that no one will recognize them.

“there’s a gang fight again.. you know it’s near your dorm. You should be careful, okay?” Darren said looking to Irish. He’s really worried for his girlfriend thinking their place is very dangerous. Especially, they’re not so simple people.

“gang fight?” Irish tried to look interested on what his boyfriend is telling her although she definitely knew all of that. She doesn’t want to look suspicious.

“yeah, you know that gang who leaves a lipstick mark, yellow I think?”

“ohh, the HK gang?” Irish said without thinking, her focus is on the steak she’s cutting.

“HK gang??” confused with what Irish said, Darren looked at her still busy with the steak.

But with that, Irish stopped and realized what she just said. She doesn’t know that the name of the gang is still unknown by the community. She needs to think of a good excuse, she tried to look normal and add a little innocence on her face.

“I heard that’s the name of the gang..” she said and ate a piece of a steak she’s been trying to cut a while ago.

“really? I wonder what is the purpose of that gang..”

“you seem to be interested with them, aren’t you?” Irish asked.

“not really, I’m just thinking how dangerous they are. And well, I’m worried for my girlfriend of course.” He said while wiping the side of Irish’s lips.

“Thanks.” Irish smiled. He’s always doing sweet actions for her but it still makes her heart flutters.

“I’m Home!” Ice yelled upon entering their dorm coming back from her solo activity. She lazily went in and threw herself in the sofa.

“how’s work?” Kris asked sitting on her favorite couch with her laptop on.

Ice sighed heavily. She’s really exhausted today. After the schedule of the group, she went straight to her next schedule. She doesn’t want to talk anymore, she feel tired and sleepy.

Kris looked at her for a while then went back to her laptop. She knows the leader is tired upon hearing her sigh.

“here.” Heaven handed Ice her favorite apple juice then sat with her and turned the tv on.

“thanks, baby!” Ice is so thankful Heaven is her baby. Despite of being the youngest, she always took care of the leader. They always have that ‘big sister-baby sister’ relationship.

Ice drank the apple juice with joy, as if it was her energizer. Well, being taken care by Heaven is actually her energy booster.

“where’s Irish, by the way?” Ice asked. Being the leader, she always sees to it that she’s seeing all the members at a time like this. She knows Irish doesn’t have a schedule for tonight so she must be here by now.

“I think she said she’s going out.” Kris said, still focused on her laptop.

“with who?”

“don’t know. Probably, with her boyfriend.” The three already know that Irish has a boyfriend and their suspecting it is Darren. They don’t want to tell her because they want Irish to personally spill everything about him.
