One Step At A Time
"Finally!" exclaimed Sooyoung when she saw the two walking out of the elevator. "What took you so long?" She then saw the little girl between them. "Hey, Jiyoon!" She ran towards the girl, squatted down and kissed her cheek. She grimaced a little at the familiar frying oil smell although it had been considerably reduced since Taeyeon and Tiffany helped the grandmother by installing a kitchen exhaust at her home.
"Jiyoon?" Yuri turned her head.
Jongin stood up when he heard the name. "My buddy!"
The little girl ran towards the young man, giggling with her arms open.
Jongin scooped the girl up in his arms. "How have you been, buddy?" He lifted one hand and the girl high-fived it.
"Pretty good, buddy."
Everyone laughed when they heard the reply.
"You're teaching her to be disrespectful towards older people," Taeyeon commented.
"Nah. She knows it's just our thing, right?" Jongin grinned.
Jiyoon nodded.
"Well, I better tell Captain Im that you're here." Joonmyun stood up from his seat and went to knock on Yoona's office door.
"Why is she with you?" Sooyoung asked Tiffany.
"Mrs. Yoon isn't feeling well so we're babysitting for the night."
"Babysitting again?" Yuri spoke. "That's like... what now... every day this week?"
"Yeah. Well, we can't help it," answered Tiffany. She looked at the girl now talking excitedly with Jongin and smiled. "Besides, we don't mind."
"What's going on anyway?" Taeyeon asked her friends.
"Not sure. Captain called and told me to come here as fast as possible," said Chanyeol. He then sighed audibly. "The date was going well too."
"You had a date?!" Taeyeon asked a bit louder than she should.
"Sshh! Noona!" Chanyeol looked around cautiously.
"What? Afraid that the rookie fan will hear me?" teased Taeyeon.
"She's not a fan, okay?" Chanyeol protested.
"She's been popping up every chance she could, bringing you food and stuff. Ugh." Sooyoung shuddered.
"You should talk. I heard that Haejoon oppa's in town this weekend," Yuri remarked with a cheeky grin.
"Shut up!" Sooyoung hissed, slightly blushing.
"What? Haejoon oppa's here and he didn't tell me?!" exclaimed Taeyeon in shock. She then narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing her friend. "Are you two getting serious?"
"He lives three hours away, okay? We're just good friends," argued Sooyoung.
Yuri scoffed. "Right," she muttered under her breath.
