Mina's POV

As I walked into the hallway

I saw a familiar guy heading in my direction

Oh, God...

I immediately went back to where I had walked, trying to take rush steps.

Where's Momo and Sana? Geez, I should've waited in their class.

I prayed to God that Bambam won't notice me--

"Mina-ya!" I mentally cursed at myself. I heard Bambam's voice shouting my name again.

I could only shut my eyes close, annoyed.

No, please someone help me...







And as I opened my eyes, I saw a familiar figure of someone, and it was Chaeyoung who was walking in my direction.

She didn't notice me since she looks like she was talking to someone over the phone.


And I had no choice but to do the only way I could think of right at this moment.

Ugh, this is the only way. It's better than being pinned down by that guy again.

Luckily, Chaeyoung must have noticed me when she suddenly looked up and smiled at me.

And Bambam was getting closer. He was about to say something but I beat him to it.

"You're late" I blurted out in front of Chaeyoung. I was surprised that my voice sounded calm despite feeling nervous that Bambam was just behind us.

Such a perfect timing

"W-what?" Chaeyoung asked, a little surprised.

I mentally cursed at myself again for dragging Chaeyoung into this mess

Oh my God, what should I do?

'What's what? Chaeyoung? Still there?' the voice from the other line spoke.

Then Chaeyoung noticed Bambam behind me, then looked at me again. It took her a few seconds to understand my situation. She suddenly flashed a smile.

"Yeah, uh, She's already here...waiting" Chaeyoung stated over the phone, voice louder than normal, and her eyes never left mine.

I felt relief when she got the telepathic message I sent through her eyes.

'Eh? Who the f--'

"I'll call you later, Unnie," Chaeyoung said and immediately ended the call.

"Mina?" I felt a tap on my shoulder, and it was from the person behind me.

Arghh, I thought he already left

"About the lunch I offered? Are you still on it?" Bambam said, still not taking his hand off my shoulder.

Chaeyoung's eyebrows furrowed as she stared at Bambam's hand, and then to my stiff shoulders. She could see that I was feeling uncomfortable right now.

Chaeyoung then took few more steps to get closer to me, her smile went back, "Mina, I'm sorry I got late and made you wait." Chaeyoung calmly stated, but loud enough for Bambam to hear.

Then finally, Bambam's hand let go of my shoulder

"I-It's fine, shall we go now?" I asked. I mentally slapped myself for stuttering.

Chaeyoung's smile widened, "We should," she said and suddenly held my wrist before leading me away from Bambam.

I took one last glance behind and saw Bambam's annoyed face.

As we are finally going far away from Bambam. I let out a sigh of relief.

"T-Thank you, Chaeyoung-ssi" I broke the silence. She suddenly stopped walking and faced me.

"Maybe you can thank me by treating me lunch, Mina-ssi" she playfully grinned at me, showing her dimple.

I felt a jolt on my chest, and I couldn't help but smile.

"Sure," I said and proceeded to walk with her beside me.

Sana's POV

I can't help but giggle at the person in front of me. She was so busy eating her food as if she hadn't eaten for decades.

I didn't know she's such a big eater

She noticed me smiling at her, so she stopped with a bump of food on her right cheek l, she raised her eyebrows.

"I'm sorry," I said, but I'm not really sorry about it.

She's too cute

"You just look like you haven't eaten food for decades," I said and bit my lip as I tried to hold my smile

She chewed the food and sipped on her iced tea, she chuckled

"Long story," she said and continued eating

"I'll listen," I said encouraging her to talk more

She just looked at me amused and then she shook her head

"I haven't eaten breakfast and forgot to bring my lunch box, and when I was about to buy food, I bumped into someone" she chuckled once again, remembering what happened earlier.

"By that 'someone', you mean an admirer of yours?" I said teasingly.

She furrowed her eyebrows

I stiffened, thinking maybe I shouldn't have teased her like that, but I was wrong...

"I don't get why you guys keep saying those things," she said, a frown on her face. She was practically frowning at her food.

"Aren't you aware that you're popular?" I asked in disbelief.

"Popular for what? Being intimidating?" She raised her eyebrows at me

Such a sassy

A small laugh escaped my mouth. I suddenly remembered that time when I told her she looks intimidating.

"Not just because of that, you're also--" I immediately stopped on track realizing the word I was about to say,

Attractive...

"What? That I'm pale?" She said now teasing me also

I shook my head in amusement

I didn't know she has this playful side

"Maybe?" I said joining the teasing game

She flashed a half-smile

I didn't really expect to be this comfortable around her

"And now, you finally showed your true colors," she said and sipped on her iced tea

I furrowed my eyebrows

"What do you mean?" I asked curiously

She pressed her lips together as if she's searching for the right words to say.

"They say, you're friendly and bubbly, but you only showed me the shy, clumsy, and nervous you -- but now, you're proving me wrong" she said and shrugs.

I controlled myself from laughing or even flashing a grin

"It's because you're--"

"Intimidating" she finished the last word. She then playfully rolled her eyes.

And that's when I failed to suppress my loud laugh, it echoed inside the fast-food chain.


"I don't know her" Dahyun playfully stated at the waiter who walked past them, looking at Sana in amusement.



God, I didn't know she has this funny side.
