Chef-d'oeuvre

"We're bestfriends."

Another school year has started in the prestigious school named Kim University. It is the biggest school in Seoul and every college student is dying to get in.

Not only the school is picky, but also they need to be rich to get in. They also offer scholarships, but only 10% of the examiners passed this year, and it's gradually decreasing.

“Chaeyoung-ah! let's eat lunch together.” she shouted the second Chaeyoung stepped out of the Science room.

It's her.

"Don't we always?" she let out a smile, exposing her dimples.

They walked quietly, exiting the campus to go somewhere else to eat. Mina suddenly held her hand, surprising the younger girl.

Mina.

"Where to?" Mina clings more to Chaeyoung. She can't help but to sigh and let her do it. "I want ramen." Chaeyoung utters. Her eyes sparkled, it was some of the many times she decides what they will eat. It makes Mina happy, not knowing why.
"Me too! How about at the old ramen house?" Chaeyoung couldn't help but to grin. Mina was always enthusiastic when they are eating, and she is always happy when she is.

Her happiness, is also mine.

You see, that's the problem when you've invested feelings you shouldn't. You know you have to chose what's more important. It sucks, to be honest. No matter how much courage you gather, how much motivation you received you can't just say it, especially when it's your best friend. You can't just say that...

I love you, to the moon, and back.

They silently ate their ramen at the said shop. Chaeyoung stealing glances on Mina while she eats.

No.

She stopped doing it and focused on finishing her ramen.
"Are you that hungry, Chae?" Mina giggled as she see Chaeyoung continuously eating her noodles and making non-stop slurping sounds. "I didn't ate breakfast earlier."
The older scowled at her. She doesn't like it when Chaeyoung skips a meal in a day. "I told you to not skip meals!" Chaeyoung laughs and looked at her, "I'm sorry, unnie." Mina glared at her for the last time. "I don't like you getting sick, and you know that." the younger nodded.

Right, we're bestfriends.

It was hard for Chaeyoung to just ignore her feelings, especially when Mina just care so much about her to the point that Mina's other friends gets jealous because of her treatment with Chaeyoung. She always puts her first, which is why Chaeyoung fell for her.

She makes me feel special. Damn it, Mina.

They finished their bowl of ramen and went back to the university to meet their other friends.

"You two together again, not even bothering to invite us." Nayeon rolled her eyes. They both laughed at their unnie's reaction. "You all got classes. Ours finished an hour ago." Mina countered. Nayeon rolled her eyes. "Just admit that you two are dating now, there's no harm in that." Sana teased them both, making Mina laugh, and the other girl blushed. "We're not, Sana unnie." Chaeyoung defended. "We're witnessing a blushing Chaeyoung." Momo laughed, which everyone noticed and laughed at her, making her feel embarrassed towards Mina.

"Your laughters can be heard everywhere." Someone said while walking towards them. "You're always the party pooper, Jeongyeon." Nayeon bantered her, which made Jeongyeon scrunch. "Thank you for the compliment, Nayeon." She chuckled. "Jeongyeon unnie, how's class?" Mina asked her, Jeongyeon scratched her nape. "Still the same. Boring as ever." Jihyo rolled her eyes.

"Jeongyeon never really cared about her studies."
"But still manage to pass all her subjects." Dahyun budged in.

It's true, Jeongyeon was the cool student and the campus heartthrob, boys— and even girls like her because of her aura and personality; a cold expression but so soft at the same time. Whenever she pass by a hallway full of students, some will scream, some will murmur on how she's looking that day, and the likes. And knowing that her family is well-known in the country, everyone wants to be with her.

"So? Where are we going to eat? I'm famished." Jeongyeon asked them, no one replied, instead, they walked away.

Except for Chaeyoung.

"Let's go, hyung." She offered her hand, Jeongyeon chuckled and shook her head.

This girl is so precious.

She smiled at Chaeyoung and instead of holding her hand, she puts her hand around her shoulder. Chaeyoung laughs that made the others look at them.

"Jeongyeon unnie has a soft spot for Chae, huh?" Sana smiled while looking at them. "Yeah, they have a special bond that non of us can really understand." Jihyo uttered.

The nine of them went to the canteen. It wasn't cramped, surprisingly, but as they enter the canteen, other students talked about how cool they look. The nine richest and smartest students are all together in one table.

"Don't they just love us?" Nayeon smirks as she hears it. "But I love you more, though." Tzuyu kissed Nayeon's cheeks, making her red as a tomato. "Not in front of my salad, please." Jeongyeon uttered before getting another lettuce on her plate. "You're just jealous because you don't have someone who does it to you." She scoffed. "Why would I be jealous when almost everyone here is dying to have me?" Nayeon just rolled her eyes, because she knows it's true.

-

All of their classes ended, Nayeon and Tzuyu going to Nayeon's condo, Dahyun and Momo will go food hunting as usual, Jihyo and Sana were going to the movies, Jeongyeon to somewhere they don't know. So there's Mina and Chaeyoung, together again.

The two of us, yet again.

"Us again, huh?" Mina chuckled and held Chaeyoung's hand. "Wanna go somewhere?" Mina hummed, "To our usual café?" Chaeyoung grinned, exposing her dimples. "Alright."

They hired a cab to there. The both of them was surprised that they didn't bumped into any traffic today, so they got there in no time.

"Say, Mina, don't you get tired of us always being together?" The latter laughed, shooking her head. "Why would I get tired being with my happy pill?" Chaeyoung shrugs, "I don't know, just a thought because we're always together." Mina shook her head again. "Never in a million years, Chae. We're inseparable, we promised that, remember?" The younger girl chuckled. "Yeah, we're inseparable."
