The time was 7pm, though the sky was still bright. The two planned to meet up at a pizza place that wasn't too far from where she lived.

Heejin quickly changed her outfit into something more presentable - a grey Champion top along with black, ripped jeans. She hadn't washed off her makeup from school so she slightly topped it up with some mascara and lipgloss.

Once she was ready, she grabbed her phone and car keys before skipping down the stairs.

"Where are you going?" her father had asked from behind, he adjusted his glasses which seemed to slip off of the bridge of his nose. "It's a little late Lee Heejin."

Slowly, her figure turned around and put on the most innocent face. "I know dad. Aalia was struggling with her assignment so she called and asked if I could go over it with her," the lie flowed through her lips so easily. "You don't mind, do you?"

"No, just don't be late and call me if you need anything. Saranghae." She managed to catch a glimpse of his smile before shutting the door behind her.

"Nado saranghae," Heejin responded, fully aware of the fact that he wouldn't be able to hear.

{a while later}

She arrived at the pizza place at exactly 8pm - the time they had planned to meet. Her eyes wandered around the room in hopes of finding Min Yoongi. Instead, she found a couple making out and a middle aged woman sitting by herself.

She walked towards the back and sat down on a table-for-two. She let out a sigh. The waiting game had begun.

Instinctively her eyes glanced around the nearly empty room. Though, the decorations helped bring it to life. It had a vintage/cultural vibe to it. One of the walls were painted a golden orange, whereas the others were simply a brick wall. There was a bunch of paintings hung up on the orange wall. All of which were completely different, yet they all held its own story.  Heejin was so enthralled with her surroundings she had almost forgot why she was there in the first place.

She occupied herself by playing video games and talking to Park Jaebum, one of her best friends and has been since knee-height.

As she took a step out of the pizza place, her heart sank and drowned in disappointment. A strand of hair plopped in front of her eyes, weighing down on her newly-done eyelash extensions. Unbothered to move it, she let it sit still.

She was grateful that she hadn't parked the car too far. Looking to the right side of the road and then the left, she began to cross-

"Heejin!"

"Heejin!"

It took her a while to realise her name was being called but when she did, her head shot up in bafflement. Seconds later, Heejin had already turned back and was on the pavement again.

"I was stuck in traffic," Yoongi admitted, taking a few steps towards the pink-haired, a grin planted on his face. "I brought you cookies."
