Chaeyoung walked towards the canteen, wearing her casual clothes because Taehyung lend her some since she's about to get discharged today. While walking though, she sees a certain girl sitting in the corner with two other people, she smiles and approached them.
"Hello," Chaeyoung greeted shyly, the three girls turned their heads and stared at Chaeyoung who cutely waved her small hand to them. "Can I join?"
"Of course! Come, sit beside me, Chaeyoung-ah." Sana offered and lend some space to Chaeyoung which is right next to Mina.
Dr. Chou coughed, "Sana, can you please move a little? It's a bit suffocating."
Sana pouted and hit her arm, "you've been like this yesterday, Tzu! You acted like we were strangers!"
Dr. Chou chuckled, "but that was only because I was trying to keep it professional."
"Professional your ass."
While Chaeyoung was tuned in to their small argument, she can't help but notice their other companion is quietly eating her food as if no one sat around her. Chaeyoung stared at her until the latter would notice and when she did, Chaeyoung smiled at her.
"Why are you so quiet?" Chaeyoung asked.
Mina just stared at her before looking back at her plate, "not in the mood." She shrugged and took a bite of the pancake on her plate.
Chaeyoung hummed, "when will you be in 'the mood'?" She asked.
Mina kept still and her voice stern, "when you're discharged."
"What-"
"Chaeyoung-ah! Your phone has been vibrating since you sat next to me!" Sana informed her.
Chaeyoung silently thanked her with a smile and fished out her phone to see what it was.

|yes mam!Chaeyoung heard Sana hum, she looked at her and saw Sana's eyes on her phone. She then look at Mina who she caught side-glancing at her phone. She sighed and closed her phone, putting it back in her pocket.
"Wow, Chaengcasso is too talented." Sana mused. "I mean, you can compose lyrics, make such wonderful artworks. What's next to be exposed?"
Chaeyoung sighed, "it's not like I wanted to be known, it's just my hobby."
"Oh yeah! And Dahyun also told me that you love photography, next time show your skills!" Sana happily chewed the pancake on her plate.
Dahyun is too talkative.
Chaeyoung wanted to facepalm herself but because of someone beside her, she chose not to and a feeling of pride took over her system when she heard Mina hum a tune of approval.
"Oh, do you know Mina?" Dr. Chou asked.
"Uh, yes, Dr. Chou."
Dr. Chou laughed and waved her hand, "stop calling me Dr. Chou when you're not my patient. Or start calling me Tzuyu since you're older than me."
"Really?" Chaeyoung couldn't believe it, so it meant maybe Tzuyu was a year younger or maybe months younger.
"By the way, how did you and Mina meet?"
Chaeyoung smiled and glanced at Mina who had her ears perked to their conversation. "I just wanted fresh air so I went to the rooftop and saw her standing on the rails and thought she was about to commit suicide."
Tzuyu let out a chuckle, "Mina, you still enjoy standing on the rails? Seriously, one wrong step and you'll die." She said but is still laughing.
"A serious matter really," Chaeyoung agreed. "She almost fell but thanks to my quick reflexes I caught her leg."
Sana gasped, "oh yeah, Taehyung told me that. He said that he was really worried."
Tzuyu leaned in, "oh yeah? If I were him, I'd die out of worry since Mina almost died."
Sana shook her head, "no, he was worried about Chaeyoung because.. uh, well, her past. He didn't really share it but his face was dark and he looked really upset."
"Because why wouldn't he be concerned about his girlfriend?" A voice from behind sounded out, they all looked behind Chaeyoung and saw Mina chewing the last piece of pancake while her eyes stared back at them with bore.
Sana laughed along with Tzuyu and Chaeyoung who just smiled awkwardly.
"Why are you laughing?" Mina asked.
"Mina-ssi, he's not my boyfriend." Chaeyoung giggled.
"Then what is he? Your fiancé?"
Chaeyoung shook her head, "let's say that... he's a special friend of mine,"
"Oh, a crush--" Mina's words were cut and her nodding soon turned into embarassment.
"-and he's gay." Chaeyoung added which brought Sana and Tzuyu's laugh more, Mina's face reddened once she knew she was wrong about her thoughts.
Chaeyoung smiled at Mina widely when she saw the latter turning into a tomato with how reddish her cheeks were. Mina stood up and grabbed her plate she cleared her throat, "I'll return my plate." She excused and started waddling like a penguin towards the counter where she talked with a staff or something.
Chaeyoung now laughed along with Sana and Tzuyu, she watched how clumsy Mina was when she revealed that Taehyung was gay. While watching, she let her palm catch her cheek and a content smile on her face.
How cute,
Chaeyoung's thoughts were the same as Mina's yesterday and who could've thought that the two is more connected than they expected.
