| Ep. 7 |

Miho felt bad when Vasco's nervous face scared off the girls. If only the female population looked past Vasco's seemingly scary exterior, they would understand that he was actually a pretty cute guy! 

"Next, the fashion Dept's Daniel Park!" He perked up from his silent musings. A bunch of girls- even a handful of boys- gushed over his pretty friend. Miho knew his first friend was undeniably gorgeous and the fact that he was approachable as well only made him even more desirable.

However, the expression on Daniel's face caught his attention. The uneasiness marring his features concerned him. What happened for him to express such worry while on the stage? Nervousness, he could understand but the worry on his face also worried Miho.

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Jay approaching the booth with two girls- probably the staff. Miho quickly approached the blond and tugged on his sleeve. "What's wrong, Jay? You seem really worried about something."

After a few gestures from the blond, Miho got a gist of what his friend was trying to say and just like him, the situation perturbed him as well. Miho glanced at the girls with pleading eyes. He knew for a fact that only girls were allowed to bid but that wouldn't stop him.

"Pleaseeeee can we, miss?"

The girls looked at each other with doubtful expressions. One of the girls gave him an apologetic look. "I'm really sorry, Miho. Only girls are allowed to bid. No matter how high, boys aren't allowed." 

The albino pouted as he and Jay shared worried glances before glancing at Daniel who was uncomfortable on the stage. Red eyes widened in realization as he leaned on the table, his face only a few centimetres away from the girl in front of him.

Her face turned into different shades of red, her companion's cheeks turning pink in the process as well. "Then, can you bid for us, miss?"

"Eh?"

"Whatever price it is, Jay and I can pay for it."

"But-"

Miho leaned in even further, his eyes seductively half-lidded with a smile on his face. Jay was about to pull the shorter boy away when the girl suddenly fell off her chair from leaning away. "I'll take you out on a date in exchange, miss."

Jay jerked in surprise, his head whipping around to face the shorter boy who simply kept smiling at the girl. "S-Sure! What do you want me to do, Miho?" A simpering smirk curved itself on his lips.

oooOooo

If it was possible- and not at all embarrassing- Daniel would have fainted there and then. The girls in the crowd were fighting over a slab of precious meat- him. This Lala Kim character has bidden quite the price, and it was making him nervous after what his senior said.

However, Daniel saw a familiar face in the crowd who had doubled Lala Kim's price. It was the nice noona from the convenience store! He thought she was older, with the way she dressed up during the night but seeing her in a uniform caught him off guard.

The last bid was five-thousand and it came from the pretty noona. Just before the auction ended, he saw another girl lifting her hand and doubling the pretty noona's price. It was a girl from their school.

Daniel bit his lower lip. If only males were also allowed to bid, maybe- wait, where was his line of thought heading to? Spending his time with an unknown girl just worried him, but why would his thoughts head to there? Being with an unknown male would also be uncomfortable.
