"You call Jackson your homeboy?" Dessa quickly interjects.
I shouldn't eat in the morning. I get so hyped up, I can't take the smile off my face.
"Hey, we're coming with you right? Did Yuggy tell you?" Jackson asks as I sit down beside him.
"Yeah, sure," Dessa answers so I look at them.
"Coming where?" I ask.
"You're finishing your thesis, right? We're coming with you to Dessa's."
"Why was I not informed?" I can't help but ask.
They look at me quizzically.
"So... you're on the stage where he has to tell you where he's going?" Dessa asks slowly.
"No, that's not what I meant," I quickly answer anyway. "I mean... I was talking about you. Why did you not tell me they're coming? I thought it's just us. I can't work when there are other people."
"Then I'll do the work and just check it after," Dessa says nonchalantly.
"Check ours too!" Jackson says which makes me pout. Here we go again.
"Come upstairs," Dessa guides us to her room. She sits in front of her computer since she will be the one editing. I take the chair beside her. Jackson scatters his papers around him, leaving Gyeommie a space on the corner. He settles there and plays with his phone.
"Gummy, can I borrow your phone?" he asks so I silently throws him my phone. Jackson and Dessa looks at us but don't say anything.
"Password?"
"111797," I answer. Gyeommie looks at me while I tear off my gaze and tell Dessa which is our file.
"1117? You mean like November 17? Isn't that your birthday bro?" Jackson asks so I sigh.
"You have his birthday as your password? Confirmed."
Confirmed what exactly Dessa?
"Here," Gyeommie throws my phone back.
"What did you do?" I ask while putting it back in my pocket.
"I sent our picture to me. You never uploaded it."
And here goes Dessa with her fake hyperventilation. "You guys have a picture? As in just you two? Let me see!"
"It's just a picture Dess."
"When did you take that? When you made thesis on his place? I should've come!"
"Wait, you made thesis on his place? So why did you come here, bro? You're not even doing anything?" Jackson points out.
"Cause we're already done."
"What? So you're just here to watch us?"
Yugyeom shrugs. Jackson and Ella look at each other knowingly. I roll my eyes. These guys, really...
That night, I decide to change my profile picture because some of them aren't aware that I've cut my hair and probably won't recognize me. It hasn't even been a minute when a notification arrives.

I found out that Jackson likes Dessa so he pleaded me not to tell anyone about it, in exchange for his everyday compliments. I'm not planning to tell anyway since Dessa is happy with his boyfriend but Jackson insisted that he would comment hearts on everything I post or tell other people how awesome I am. So whatever, let's leave him and his unrequited love be.
