I took a bus to get to the mall. There were no more seats so I had to hold the pole and stand. I saw my outfit reflect in the window. I wore a pastel pink button up blouse with pockects on the chest. It had lace over a solid material but was still lightweight. The sleeves were cuffed, but it's not like you could see them over my large black jacket that met my baby blue skirt at it's end. My shirt was tucked in. I also decided to wear black lace tights to go with my coat. My shoes were my red school converse because I could care less about my shoes. I made sure to bring a handbag with sufficient funds if anything caught my eye. I wanted to wear an outfit that made it look like I tried, but in reality it's just a bunch of corresponding patterns and colors presenting the illusion.

The weather was soooooooo nice. It was warm out but with a cool breeze. Not like it mattered though considering we'd be indoors :'). The bus stopped and I walked out to be greeted by the shiny lights of stores. I texted the group chat to see where everyone was. I did show up 10 minutes late because of the traffic.

In chat 1

Me: Hey, where are you guys? Traffic got me.

Sominniehearts: We're at the front tables of the entrance. Wouldn't have fun without you!!

Sikandhandsome: Hurry up!!! 😥

I put away my phone and walked up to the large front doors. Behind the glass waited everyone expected...except Taeyong. Questions clouded my mind. Did he forget? Did his plans override the event? Did he not wish to see us? To see me?

Sungsik's face filled my view out of no where from the other side of the glass and I jumped. I would've started yelling at him if I didn't bump into someone behind me. I instinctively swiveled 180 to bow and apologize to whoever I hit.
I didn't see the face but I knew the voice.

Taeyong: I'm fine, but the real question is are you? You look like you just had a heart attack 😂

I straightened up to see Taeyong with his hands in his jean pockets with a small smile. He wore plain fashionable clothing I can't quite describe. His hair was styled to look like it could endure a typhoon and be fine. I must say that is amazing.

Me: I want to say I'm sorry for hitting you, but since it's you I'm not sure if I can.

Taeyong: You're so harsh.

Sungsik appeared next to me with his hand on my shoulder.

Sungsik: Well look who decided to show up. Took you two long enough. I began to worry you kidnapped my Yoonae.

Me: Your? Not this again.

Taeyong: I would've been on time if the traffic wasn't so busy.

Me: Exactly, now why don't we all start browsing.

The three of us joined the others in the building and told them of our plans while introducing ourselves. Somin hugged and greeted me then returned to Hirahara's arm. I assumed that they'd probably be inseparable for the whole time. Sungsik kept desperately trying to gain my attention, while Ji looked slightly depressed from her lack. Taeyong remained by me considering I'm the only person he knew.

To see what this day had in store... literally.
