"Well, uhm... You can stay in my apartment for tonight." Hoseok offered that made Momo flustered.

She gave him an are-you-serious look. Just the thought of her being under the same roof with a guy for a night made her blush.

"Ya. I know what you're thinking right now but, no, I'm not taking advantage of this situation to do the thing you have in your mind right now—"

"Hey! What do you mean the thing I have in my mind right now?" Momo interjected, glaring at Hoseok, her face was even redder than before.

"Alright, alright. I'm just saying that I'm only concerned to you. You said you don't know where to stay for tonight, right? Since you lost your key? I'm just offering you a help. I caused you this. If it wasn't for me, you won't be losing that key right now, I mean, if I didn't ask you to go out with me today," he explained himself.

"It's okay. It's not your fault that I'm careless," she said then let out a deep sigh.

"Don't worry, You can use the extra room I have in my apartment." He smiled at her reasuringly.

"O-okay. If you really insist," she finally agreed and went with Hoseok to his apartment.

Hoseok offered Momo to sit on the couch as soon as they've arrived in his apartment to which the latter did. Momo's eyes wandered around the apartment with an awed expression drawn all over her face.

'Woah! His place is cleaner than my room. Now, I'm embarassed for being less tidy than a guy.' she thought.

"Are you hungry?" Hoseok suddenly asked as he sat on the other end of the couch where Momo was sitting, being careful not to make her uncomfortable as much as possible.

"I'm always hungry," she said, following it with a chuckle.

"Yeah, it's so damn obvious. Why did I even ask?" Hoseok shook his head, chuckling.

"So, what are we gon'na eat?"

"How about we order pizza?" he suggested.

"I love pizza but, I just had pizza earlier," she groaned.

'I wonder how this girl still keep her body in shape despite being a food lover.' Hoseok shook his head to take that thought off of his 'pUrE' mind.

"I actually don't know how to cook."

"Then, how are you still surviving living alone if you don't cook?" she curiously asked.

"I eat cup noodles."

"All the time?!" she unbelievably said, concern was visible to her voice as she gave him an are-you-crazy look.

"Uh, well, sometimes, l order food and eat in my friends' house especially in Jin-hyung's, that guy should really be a future chef," he said, bragging about his friend Jin who was good at cooking.

"Oh! No wonder why Nayeon-unnie likes him." Momo abruptly covered her mouth as she realized what she just blurted out. 'I really hate my stupidity sometimes.' she thought and mentally slapped herself.

"What?"

"Huh?" she looked at him innocently.  "Anyway, what you're doing is very unhealthy!" She said as she tried to change the topic and felt relieved when she succeeded.

"What can I do? I don't know how to cook any dishes," he shrugged.

"Where's your kitchen? I'll cook," she presented, standing up from being seated on the couch.

"Oh, okay, but I'll lend you some comfortable clothes, first, for you to change into and show you the room you'll use," Hoseok said as he stood up as well. Momo nodded and followed him to the room. Her eyes automatically wandered around the room, checking how many windows there were and how small the room was. She was so thankful that the room wasn't that small and has two sliding windows across the wall of the room. This action of her was already in her nature since she was claustrophobic. She'd go check every room she'd get herself into.
