"Where are they?"

Yugyeom stiffly turns around to face the older.

Jinyoung was looking at him, waiting for his answer.

"H-hyung..."

He started scratching the back of his head trying to make a sensible answer.

What if he leaves too after I told him they already left? That would be so much embarrassing!

"I-I...think...they...already left?"

He hesitantly said, trying to sense the older's possible reaction.

Jinyoung stares at him with that blank expression. He's not really sure if he heard that right?

"You think?"

He asks, being suspicious.

"Well..."

Yugyeom said, massaging his nape, not really sure if he should just make an excuse for them or just tell him the truth.

Lifting his head to look at the older's eyes, Yugyeom lets out a sigh and just decided to be honest, after all, Jinyoung is a wise a guy, he would immediately hinted that it was planned out no matter what excuses or reasons he pulled out.

"They're actually trying to set us up..."

He said and lowers his head, slightly regretting that he tells him the truth because the older might think he was the mastermind of it.

"Are you on it, too?"

Jinyoung asks, his voice sounds so stern and serious.

"Oh, no! No, hyung! I just knew it once I got back from the counter and they're all gone!"

Yugyeom immediately lifted his head and shakes his hands in front, denying it with all of his might.

He swallowed an invisible lump on his throat as he waited for Jinyoung's response while the older is just looking at him with that same straight face. Yugyeom didn't know but he feels so tensed right now.

"Here's your order sir!"

The awkward silence was broken when the ramen house crew suddenly pops out beside them holding their tray of foods.

Yugyeom flinched a little and awkwardly smiles at the crew, helping her to put down the bowls of food in their table. After thanking him, the crew finally left them, leaving the two of them in that awkward scenario.

Yugyeom was still keeping his head down low, feeling a little bit ashamed for letting his hyungs do that. What if the senior didn't want to hang out with them again after this, thinking they were just all ganging up on him?

On the other hand, Jinyoung was still contemplating whether to just leave now too or stay. As much as possible he didn't want to give him too much response and considerations, he didn't want him to think that he was entertaining him and immediately get used to it, but believe it or not even though, Jinyoung is undeniably rude, he was still trying his best not to be so rough on him because he was still their friend, they weren't the closest among their group but still.

Seeing the set of bowls in the table, Jinyoung lets out a sigh and just decided to sit down.

'I'm hungry now though, so...'

He thought.

Yugyeom was still standing there at the side of the table, watching his hyung in confusion as he starts eating his bowl of ramen.

"Are you just going to stand there or what?"

Jinyoung said not even looking at him.

Yugyeom finally snapped on reality and immediately sits down, still trying to sink in what was happening right now.
