Baekhyun woke up to the smell of food that came from the kitchen. He went to the kitchen as he rubbed his left eyes. "What are you doing this early Saturday morning?" He asks as he sat on the dining table. "Cooking. Obviously." Dahyun replied and Baekhyun smiled alone to the table. Dahyun turned around with the food in her hand feeling shocked. "Byun Baekhyun! You haven't wash your face yet! Go make yourself presentable before you come here!" She said sounding more like a mom. Baekhyun pouted and shook his head.

"I'm still sleepy." He said. "That's why you need to wash your face." Dahyun said as she set the food down on the table. "Don't eat unless you have clean yourself." She demanded. Baekhyun saluted to Dahyun's command with his eyes half-opened. He went to the bathroom and did what he should have done. Meanwhile, Dahyun was eating alone at the dining table while she scrolled down her phone. There's a lot of missed call from her father. She hasn't checked her phone like a years. 

Also, one name caught her attention in the call log list. 

- eomma

She called me. For the second time. She dial back the number and waiting for the other line to accept it. But, she gained nothing. No one's answering except for the operator, the one who always take our phone call. Mostly. "Now I'm ready! Can I eat now?" Baekhyun asked and sitting on the chair in front of Dahyun. Dahyun looked up and saw the now handsome Baekhyun. She nodded. "Finally I met the real Baekhyun. I thought there's a monster before." Dahyun said. "Why did you suddenly being so savage?" Baekhyun asked and began to eat the food deliciously. 

Dahyun just shrugged. "I'm always like this though." She replied. Baekhyun shook his head. "Nope. You aren't." He said. Dahyun only looked at him silently. "Well, I guess...I'm starting to like this new side of yours. Let see how far you're going to be hard to catch?" He said. "What? I'm not pretending to be hard to catch. It just that I won't let you catch me. There's many handsome boy outside and you're not that handsome." She replied. Baekhyun scoffed and rolled his eyes.

"Really? If the boy is handsome, they obviously won't choose you. There's also a lot of beautiful girls outside." Baekhyun retorted back. Dahyun pouted feeling that what Baekhyun has said is true. "Well, even if you sound so true.......it's not like there's a girl waiting for you at this moment!" She said. Baekhyun raised his eyebrows. "There is. My fans are everywhere." He replied. Dahyun shook her head. "It's not that. I mean, are you not going to pick up your phone? It keeps ringing for a while already." Dahyun said and pointed to Baekhyun's phone on the table.

Baekhyun just realized it and he immediately checked it. "Well, it's....not like what you think. She is not my girlfriend...just a friend. A common friend you see at school. I think, s-she wanted to ask about the homework." Baekhyun said. Dahyun nodded with a nonchalant face. "It's not like I care." She replied. Baekhyun gulped down his now cold tea. Dahyun picked her plate and glass to the dishwasher. Both of them remain silent for a while.

Dahyun's POV

Why the hell did you need to jealous? We're not in a serious relationship. Kim Dahyun! Come to your sense. He deserves to get his own real girlfriend. Who can make him truly happy. Not a fake like you. You should have been looking for a boyfriend too. 

The sound of someone cleared his throat woke Dahyun from her day dream. "Are you....going to waste the water more?" Baekhyun asked. "Uhm...no. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...." She said and washed her hand before leaving Baekhyun's side. She turned off the water and went away but Baekhyun caught her by her arm. "What now?" She asked. "I'm sorry. Okay. She just a normal friend. She called me because she wanted to know if her boyfriend was with me. She has a boyfriend already." Baekhyun said as he leaned on the sink counter with Dahyun standing still on front of him.

"Why did you tell me all of this? I'm not your official girlfriend." Dahyun said. Baekhyun stares fell to the floor. He suddenly just realized it. "Don't forget what we have been promised. We're not on real relationship, our relationship are......are something....we are...default. Our relationship is default. It can change anytime, anywhere." She said and pull her arm from Baekhyun's. "You right, we're default." He muttered once Dahyun aren't in front of him anymore.

Baekhyun's POV

She's right. What am I doing? Why did I feel so scared. Why did I scared that I'm going to lose her. Why? Like she said, we're only default . Why did I feel, like I just get dumped. Why did it hurts a lot? Maybe, because she is too straightforward on telling her feeling. It obvious she didn't like me. Why did I'm hoping?

Baekhyun heard the front door being opened and he just realized that Dahyun has said something but, he isn't listening. As he came to his sense he immediately run to catch Dahyun. She has not going too far yet. "Kim Dahyun!!" He shouted and Dahyun stopped on her track. She froze. She are not going to turn back. She need to really going back to her home.But, at the same time she wanted to stay. Suddenly, her cold body begin to warm as she felt a hand wrapped tightly on her body blocking any movement to come. Baekhyun just back hugging her.

"Don't leave. You will just get hit by your dad." Baekhyun said. "That's what I get for running away from home." She replied. "It's not your fault. I'm the one who brought you." He said. Dahyun sighed. "It's our faults. I just can say no but, instead I leave with you to your apartment." She said as she turned around to face Baekhyun still in Baekhyun's arm. That closeness got both of them turning red. "This isn't feel right." Dahyun said. "Yeah." Baekhyun said and he loose his hand from Dahyun and both of them parted away. 

"Then, you shouldn't have to be punished alone. We should be punish together." He said as he held Dahyun's hand and they walked to Dahyun's house together.
