'I was afraid. but when you hold my hand I feel safe'

Momo released a breath, staring at ceiling. She was lying on bed but her eyes resisted to be closed yet. Mina's words kept replaying inside her head. Every time she closed her eyes she would see the girl with drops of rain running down her face. Adding to that even now she could feel those lips moving gently against her. She had kissed Mina back. Although she thought it was part of her boy-disguising thing, but she wondered about the feeling it brought in to her. If it was only acting then why her heart fluttered when Mina kissed her or looked at her. 'Does it mean I like her?'

Her eyes widened and she shook her head swiftly. "No, no, I don't see girl that way," she mumbled. "I'm a girl too so it means I should like guy. Yes, it should be a guy not a girl."

Her mind then went to the mysterious dancer. After they got caught by Mrs. Bae and Mina, Tzuyu decided they skip street dance for a while so she didn't meet him. Somehow she was curious about him. It was a little shock for telling the truth since she never thought about guy before. But that night he surely had sent a shiver down her spin. Even now she couldn't forget his attractive smile. 'Wait, it means I'm attracted to him?'

"What on earth has happened to me?" Momo rubbed her face. She glanced toward her roommate. Jeongyeon was deep in her sleep. If she told Jeongyeon, the girl would undoubtedly tease her. Perhaps Tzuyu was the right person if she wanted to have girl talk.

"Hold on, since when I have girl talk?"

Momo covered face with pillow and groaned. "Oh god I hate this stuff."

Tzuyu noticed Momo's cloudy face. Momo was eating her breakfast in silence. She laid yogurt spoon on tray before leaning toward the girl.

"You okay? You seem to have no appetite this morning, what's wrong?"

Momo fidgeted with her spoon before putting it down on plate.

"Just sleepy."

"Sleepy?" Tzuyu asked. She sensed something was bothering Momo. "Miss your girlfriend?" She let out a laugh as Momo looked at her in annoyance. "Sorry. But seriously what's wrong? You know, you can talk to me or Kyungwan."

At the mention of her boy's name Jeongyeon's turned her head. "I heard my name, what's up?"

"Nothing," Momo replied and Jeongyeon turned back to talk with Nayeon and some girls. "It's alright really, just can't wait to know about the festival." It wasn't the time and place to talk.

"I'm excited too," Tzuyu said "I wonder what kind of performance we will have for the festival. You think we will sing again, like at annual party?"

"Perhaps, I don't know. That's why I'm curious. I heard..." Momo stopped when Tzuyu moved gaze up to someone behind her. She turned head around and was surprised to find the person.

Tzuyu and other students quickly rose up, moving to another chair.

"Hi, Haru," Mina greeted. She took a chair beside Mina and sat down.

"Uh, hi," Momo replied. Suddenly the large hall turned silent. Everyone in dining room was looking at them. 'Now everyone will think we're really dating, great'

"Hey, what's wrong? You didn't eat your breakfast," Mina said "You don't feel well? Do you have cold?" She reached for his forehead.

Momo moved head away. "I'm fine." Now it turned noisy with whispers and squeals. 'This is embarrassing' She couldn't lift her head as blush slowly made its way up to her face.
