chicken

"ooh~ and this one is fried chicken from alverna. it's marinated in sweet and sour sauce though. but it's 3.99$ for a bucket, so it might be worth it."

woojin and effie were seated in front of effie's laptop, trying to work out an ordering service in america. woojin was suddenly an expert in knowing what chicken was imported from where, what kind of sauce they put on the side, and even telling her fun facts about chickens from time to time.

"woah, slow down." effie tried to process the information that woojin had given her in the last half hour. "so this one is good, but expensive, right? and this one is a three out of five stars, but they charge a lot on delivering the chicken to you? okay, then get this one,"

effie pointed to the fried chicken that was the fourth option on the menu. woojin nodded, "nice. they use only chicken that are slaughtered humanely too. let's get it."

after ordering food, woojin called jisung - who was sharing a room with hyunjin - and minho - who was sharing a room with effie. they seemed reluctant to wait for the food for 20 minutes, but then heard that effie was there, they said yes. woojin hung up on them, muttering on about 'favourites' and 'flicking foreheads.'

they reached the room quite quickly, considering they were all on the same floor. jisung was the first to arrive, "effie, my dear~"

effie cringed, "yeah. hi, lover boy."

minho was next, "it's so fun to have you as a roommate ef. let's be roommates back at the dorm too, right?"

effie laughed, "you only want to be my roommate because i don't ask you to do anything that involves walking.

"and?"

"sure, minho. you're upgraded to roommate effie level. jisung, sorry to say this, but you're being downgraded to hyunjin level."

jisung looked offended, "whatever, effie. at least hyunjin won't try to pour orange juice over my socks at six in the morning to wake me up."

"but it did wake you up, didn't it?"

"yeah, but that's not the point. i swear-"

jisung had his head in his hands, "i can never win an argument with you, can i?"

effie shrugged, "nope."

before anybody could say anything, the bell rang. "chicken!" woojin smiled, answering the door.

woojin brought in the food, and they started eating.

"let's send a picture to the rest to bait them in here," said minho, his mouth full of a chicken thigh.

the four members posed for the camera, not even two minutes later, they heard the doorbell from woojin and chan's hotel room.

"fbi, open up!"

effie rolled her eyes, "i guess felix has arrived."

they opened the door, and found felix and hyunjin, who were sharing a room.

hyunjin was about to say hi before felix interrogated effie, "i smell chicken with a hint of traitor. and i'll take a quick guess that the scent of a traitor is you four."

"you want the chicken or not, lix?"

felix shot through the door past effie, "hyunjin come on, there's still some left!"

effie and hyunjin came back to the living room and saw felix sitting on top if the mini fridge, eating a chicken leg.

when seungmin, changbin, and jeongin had joined, all what was left were a few thighs and bones.

"aw, we missed it~" jeongin pouted. effie, being the caring 'mom' she is, gave jeongin her last piece that she was saving.

"thank you," jeongin hugged her, happy to eat.

"we missed it, no~" changbin tried to mimic jeongin's pout.

effie shrugged, "sounds like a you problem."
