As i was walking down the street with Irene, i heard a girl complaining to a staff of a restaurant. She was around the same age as me and had shoulder-length dark brown hair.

"What?! There's no more Jokbal?! I came here yesterday and you said that there's none left. Today too?"
"I'm sorry. Would you like to try other dishes?"
"But i want Jokbal..." The girl whined.

Another girl beside her covered her head with the hood of her jacket and tried to drag the girl away. "Yah...let's go. You're embarrassing me."
"But Dubu, i want to eat Jokbal..."

"HAHAHAHA. She hasn't changed a bit." Irene laughed.
"You know her?" I asked Irene.
She nodded her head. "She was in the same primary school as me and Seulgi. She loves Jokbal when she was young and she still does now."

"Hirai Momo!" Irene shouted to the girl.
"Bae Joohyun!" Momo exclaimed and ran over to Irene.
"How are you?"
"I'm fine. This is my friend, Wendy." Irene introduced me to Momo.

"Hi, nice to meet you." I greeted her.
"Nice to meet you too. I'm Momo, i'm from Japan. Do you like Jokbal?" She asked me.
"No, she can't eat Jokbal." Irene immediately replied in my stead.

"What? No-" I was interrupted by Irene.
"Hey, do you know that Jokbal is pig's trotters? You're allergic to pork, right?" She said to me.

'What?! Since when i'm allergic to pork?' I thought to myself.

"She's from Canada. She isn't good at Korean. Hahahaha." Irene told Momo and laughed. The latter looked at us with a confused expression.

"Is there even such allergy?" Momo asked.
'Exactly.'
"Of course. There's even people who are allergic to strawberries!" Irene replied.

"We have to go, see you soon. Bye, uh, Momo's friend." Irene bid farewell to Momo and her friend before dragging me away.

"Bye Momo! Bye, uh, Dubu!" I shouted to them since i was being dragged away by Irene.

"Why did you interrupt me?" I asked Irene.
"Because you wouldn't want to eat Jokbal everyday, would you? In the past, Momo always made us eat Jokbal with her."

"Oh, so she loves Jokbal."
"It's more than love, she's totally obsessed with Jokbal. She had fought with a stranger for the last piece of Jokbal during a buffet."

"Wow. And there i was thinking that Yeri is obsessed with Banana roti."

We went to a pizza restaurant for our dinner. I decided to tell Irene about the fake relationship between me and Jimin.

"I have something to tell you."
"What?"
"I'm in a fake relationship with Park Jimin."
"What?!" Irene exclaimed, causing other diners to look in our direction.

"Shhh...I'm not done yet. Actually, my parents are homophobic so i haven't told them about me and Seulgi."

"Your parents are homophobic?! Then what's going to happen to the both of you?" Irene said.

"Wait, let me continue. I wasn't ready to come out to them. And just yesterday......" I told Irene everything that happened.

"Wow......I'm speechless. So your parents think that you're his girlfriend?"

"Promise that you won't tell Seulgi, please." I told Irene.

Irene nodded her head. "Just don't hurt her, okay?"
