I hadn't seen Hongseok in a week.
It was hard, but..
I had finally started working with Seunghee's
Background dancers.

They were working me pretty hard, even though Seunghee had told them to not overwork me.

Jun was really the only one who had listen to her.
- Take a break, Yerin.
Jun said.

I was currently at practice, and I felt like dying.
- she needs to work more. Look how skinny she is. Do you even have muscles?
One of the dancers, Rena said making the others laugh.

- come with me, Yerin.
Jun said.

We walked out into the hallway.
Was he going to scold me?
I really had worked as hard as I could.
- you've worked really hard this week.
He said.

- but in order to get better. You need to eat more.
He said.

So that's what this was about.

- I'm going to make you a diet plan. You should consume at least 2000 calories every day.
He said.
- that's a lot..
I said.
- not really. Not for someone who works as hard as you.
He said.
- I have some... issues with eating.
I said.
- I know. It's not hard to tell.
He said.
- but you have to try.
He said.
- what if I can't?
I asked.
- then you won't be able to dance.
He said.

No.. I can't lose this..

- I'll try.
I said.
- promise?
He said.
- I promise.
I said.

Jun wasn't so bad. Actually he was really nice.
I understood why he was Seunghee's favorite.
- good. Now go home.
He said.
- but practice isn't over.
I said.
- you should go home and rest, and then eat.
He said.
- but.. I can come back tomorrow right?
I asked him.
- of course.
He said.

I said goodbye to Jun, but I didn't bother saying goodbye to anyone else.
I walked back home, because it wasn't that far, and I didn't want to bother Seunghee.

When I got home, I went to the kitchen.
I had to eat, right?
I need to be a dancer.. so bad.

I opened the fridge, and was about to get some fruit..

Wait.. this won't be enough.

I looked at everything in the fridge..
It's so much food.
How come Seunghee's fridge was always full?

There was some containers with food, so I took one, and opened it.
Woah.. kimchi.

I suddenly felt weird.
My stomach was growling.
Oh my god.
I'm..
I'm hungry.

Hongseok's POV•

I was playing video games with Wooseok, and as always I was winning.
Actually everyone won against him.

But he seemed more mad then usual.
- why are you so mad at me?
I asked him.
- because I lost.
He said.
- that can't be all. You've been mad at me the last couple of days.
I said.
- well, good luck finding out why.
He said, and left the room.

Had I done something to him?
I didn't understand.

- you don't give me any attention lately.
Kino said as he suddenly came in to the living room.
- I'm breaking up with you.
I said.
- oh my god why do I even talk to you?
Kino said, and left.

This never gets old..
I thought to myself and laughed.

- Seunghee is picking me up soon.
Yuto said, making me jump a little.
Had he been here this whole time?
- Wait, can I come with you?
I asked.
- that's why I said it.
He answered.

I was going to see Yerin again..
if she wasn't sleeping already.

It was literally all she had been doing this week, except when she was practicing.
I missed her so much.
- Seunghee's here.
Yuto said.

I ran to the hallway and got dressed as quick as possible, making Yuto laugh.
Before we left, I went to the kitchen where Kino was.
- I'm sorry it had to be this way.
I told him.
Making Jinho and Yeo One laugh.
- shut the hell up.
Kino said, making them laugh louder.

- Hongseok, let's go.
Yuto said.

We went outside, and saw Seunghee plucking of dead leafs from the plant outside our door.
- I'm taking this with me.. it's dying.
She said.
- uhh...Sure go ahead.
I said.
- I'm gonna name you Uehara.
She told the plant.
- you're so weird.
Yuto said.
- you can carry it to the car. Also you can sit in the back.
She told him, making me laugh.

Me and Seunghee got in the car, while Yuto carried the plant to her trunk.
- you miss her don't you?
Seunghee asked me.
- so much.
I answered.
- you'll see her very soon.
She said.

Yuto got in the backseat, and we drove away from our dorm.
When we got to the apartment, I ran inside.

Yerin wasn't in her room, so I decided to check the kitchen.

Oh my god.
She was sleeping on the floor, with a bunch of empty food containers around her.
- Oh my god..
Seunghee said, as she and Yuto entered the kitchen.
Then she started laughing really loudly, waking Yerin up.
- I.. I think I ate too much..
She said.
- it's ok.
Seunghee said.
- my stomach hurts.
Yerin said.

I decided to pick her up, and carry her to her bed.
- why are you smiling?
She asked me.
- because you finally ate.

• Yerin's POV•

- because you finally ate.
He said.
- it was so good.
I said.
Hongseok laughed, and patted my head.
- Ill probably lay here for the rest of the day.
I told him.
- so you can leave if you want.
I said.
- I'm not gonna leave when my girlfriend is hurting.

Did he just call me his girlfriend?


AN: I'm so happy for Yerin, but it's also kinda hilarious because she's literally me every time I get home from work.
