Lunch had passed, and soon, the bell sounded for the end of the day. The entire day, a certain duo had been silent in their group chat. This was nothing new, of course; the other chat members were used to their silence.

However, they were making it obvious. Typing and then staying silent; reading messages and leaving them that way.

"Anything?" Jeongin asked. They were in an ice cream parlor — where else would they spend their Wednesday afternoon? He scooped another pale brown bite into his mouth, humming at the coffee flavor.

Ro only shook her head, looking at the ivory ice cream in front of her sadly. They didn't have the cotton candy flavor she adored — how could they not have it? — so, she settled for birthday cake. It wasn't the same and she wasn't happy about it.

"I haven't checked, honestly," Ro spoke. Her voice was almost bland, matching the monotonous look on her face. It differed from the cheery way she spoke in the chat. "If anyone texted, it was probably fiend or cinnamon. Maybe twinkle toes."

"It's so weird to hear you call them that when I know their names," Jeongin grinned. A noise interrupted them, both of their eyes looking at the phone that had just vibrated. "That was yours... check it, check it, check it!"

Ro huffed, setting down her spoon. "Can you calm down, Angel? It could be Chan or Woowoo." She unlocked her phone anyways, blinking at the new message. "Oh."

"Oh? What does oh mean?" Jeongin asked frantically. He was nosey, and he wanted to know if his lets ignore everyone plan was working. Snatching the phone out of her hand, he dimmed. "Oh."
