Seokmin let out a heavy sigh as he settled in the couch, ignoring the curious look from Momo who then went to the kitchen to make some warm tea.

"This is bad for a first impression, isn't it?"

Momo peeked out of the kitchen and flashed a gentle smile to the male, who gave one in return when the lady shook her head.

"If you're talking about crying, it just shows that you've been strong. I don't see anything negative about it."

The lady spoke as she boiled the water and she leaned against the counter with her arms folded when she heard a soft really? from her guest.

"Besides, when a man cries because of friendship and love, that just shows that he really treasure his fellow friends. And, he's deeply in love with someone."

"Aren't you, Seokmin-ssi?"

The said male hummed in thought, nodding his head with an airy yes which earned a giggle from the lady who went out from the kitchen to sit beside him.

"Must be nice to be in love... I haven't been in love before."

Seokmin gaped at the other, earning a naive what with a grin. The lady faced him with the grin still on her face and shrugged her shoulders, "I just haven't found the guy for me. Maybe my ideal type is too hard to find."

"What is your ideal type?" Seokmin asked curiously as he faced her too, earning a smile from the lady.

"Well. I like it if someone is taller than me, and he's also quite manly but cute. He's protective and has a cute laugh with a smile. It's nice if he is talkative and well-build! Maybe a man who is boyfriend material? A romantic guy would be nice too..." She trailed off in thought which earned a chuckle from Seokmin.

"Sounds like Seungcheol hyung a little bit."

Momo leaned her chin on her right palm, placing her elbow on her lap. "Seungcheol? Who is that?"

"He's like the father of my group, but he has already graduated! Anyways, he has a boyfriend so he's out of the lane for you~" Seokmin grinned cheekily, making the lady pout.

"There goes my chance then."

The male laughed loudly, making the lady rolled her eyes in annoyance. Momo grabbed the cushion beside her and stuffed it into the male's face, catching him off guard and she stifled a laugh as the cushion fell and revealed an ugly face.

"We just met, but I feel like we are going to be really good friends.." Seokmin said slowly, turning to the other and flashed a small grin. Momo shrugged her shoulders with a cheeky smile.

At least he's distracted, right?

Chan hugged his knees to his chest as he rocked forth and back patiently, waiting for Soonyoung to finish searching for Seokmin from his sources. He was inside the Dance Studio, where everyone had left except the SoonHoon couple and Wonwoo.

Wonwoo was just sitting beside him, mirroring his actions except he didn't move, he just stayed still as he stared off in space. The other male observed him and noticed the worry and hurt from the older's face, probably because of Mingyu. Jihoon was just scrolling through his phone but there was an evident of worry from his facial expression than his usual straight face. Soonyoung was texting someone harshly on his phone near the speakers of the room, his eyebrows furrowed together in concentration.

"Chan-ah! I know where he is!!"

Soonyoung smiled widely at the younger male who returned a softer smile in return, approaching him with quick steps before kneeling down to reach his eye level.

"Jungkook told me that he went to Momo's house, you know the girl from Dance. I already texted you the address so you can go there now with Wonwoo. It's best to go with accompany!"

Chan let out a heavy breath and nodded his head in gratefulness as his smile grew on his face, "Thank you so much hyung! Wonwoo hyung, do you mind...."

"No, I'm fine with it. You want to get going now?"

As the two males rushed to the venue given by Soonyoung, Seokmin was trying to relax himself by watching some dramas on the television. Momo was busy making dinner, the portion for more than two. She was expecting unexpected guests, from what Jungkook had texted.

They are coming.
Just don't get shock when Chan sprint into your house.

Thanks for the notice, Jungkook-ah.
I appreciate it.

Momo sighed deeply as she fried the egg omelete with a dull look on her face, her true emotions starting to blind her as she tried to hold herself back.

Besides, faking your smiles is really hard.

i would love to really die now
