I quickly leave the classroom, bowing to the teacher. I weave my way through the swarms of people, moving to the canteen. 

after getting my lunch, I locate where Minsu, Yoona and Micha are sitting. they always manage to get here faster than me, which makes it easy for me to find them. I walk up and sit next to Minsu. they were in the middle of discussing some male jyp trainees. "Ara! we're thinking of going to the jyp cafe after school today, you want to come too?" Yoona asks, the rest of the group looking at me eagerly. I mentally go through his typical schedule three times before answering. "sure. I haven't been before and have been meaning on going." I say, eating some rice. I smile at their excited and joyus reactions. "THIS IS GOING TO BE SO COOL!!" "maybe you guys will be able to 'woo' some trainees" "Ara, why are you like this" "she does have a point though." I laugh as Yoona and Micha hi-five each other. "anyways, like I was saying before Ara joined us, I SWEAR I CAUGHT THE EYE OF A TRAINEE. HE WAS DEFINITELY LOOKING AT ME." I try to stifle my laughs by eating more of my lunch. "sure he was, like the other four guys you swore were checking you out that time we went for boba. I still think that one of them was looking at Minsu." "THAT'S STILL THREE GUYS." "wasn't this when we saw that squirrel fall into the bin behind Micha." "tHEY WERE LOOKING AT A SQUIRREL??" 

DING DING DING

I wave to Minsu and Micha, as Yoona and I head to our next class. we were talking about random nonsense when I felt someone staring at my back. "yah! Yoona! I think someone's staring at me, do you mind checking?" I whisper- shout to her. she peers behind to see who was looking at us. "I can't see anyone but Chung Seok. come on, let's walk a little faster." Yoona says, lightly grabbing my arm.

"Ok class, that was the bell, you can go home now." Ms Sung says, waving her hand in a shooing motion. "Ara! let's go, Micha messaged me, her and Minsu are waiting outside the classroom." we pack up our things and exit the classroom quickly. "come on guys! if we don't hurry, we're going to have to catch the later bus!" 

we race to the bus stop and get on the one waiting there. the whole way there, our discussions were chaotic. Yoona and Micha kept giggling and looking at some of the guys our age on the bus. I saw a guy try and hit on Minsu, but back off because of how weird and crazy our conversation was. sitting down, surrounded by my closest- only- friends, I felt safe and happy, like all the stress and anxiety he pushed onto me just rolled off. "come on Ara! this is our stop!!" I hurry and follow them off of the bus. 

we walk into the cafe laughing and find a table to sit at. I tune out and just look at the cafe. there was a large tv with an mv from a group I didn't know playing. the atmosphere was warm and friendly and there were high ceilings. a makeshift stage caught my attention though. I suppressed the urge to ask if I could go up there and perform a DAY6 song, my inner myday making a small appearance. my eyes finally land on a male in a hoodie on his laptop. from the angle I was sitting, I could see part of his laptop. the Bookshelf logo flashed up on his laptop and he logged in. my vision of his laptop was disrupted by a hand waving in my face. "Ara! Moon Ara! you there?" "huh? yes?" "we're going to order now, what did you want?" "ah, just a watermelon bubble tea please." I say, trying to see what the male was doing on Bookshelf. "alright, now rock paper scissors on who has to go up and order." Yoona says, already forming a fist. "rock, paper, scissors, shoot!" we say, smiling. "hahaha, yess! I am safe from ordering!" Micha cheers. "rock, paper, scissors, shoot!" Minsu, Yoona and I say. "yes Ara! we're safe from ordering, up-top!" Micha and I try to hi-five, but fail hilariously. "Yoona~ can we go up together please." Minsu asks. "fiiine. I'm only agreeing because the cashier is kinda hot, lets go!" Yoona says, standing up with Minsu. 

I look back at the male's laptop and strangely, I see my latest post on his home feed. I hear him chuckle a little and kept scrolling along. "Ara, are you done checking out that guy's back?" Micha says, laughing a little. I feel my face heating up a tiny bit. "i-it's not like that, I-I wasn't checking h-him out." I stutter out, covering my face with my hands, willing the blush out of my cheeks. I look up at Micha when I feel her rapidly kick my leg under the table. she signals to me that someone was at our table, barely covering her laughs as coughs. I turn to see who was at our table, my face heating up a little again. the guy who's laptop I was looking at, was standing there, looking quite amused. up closer, I noticed that he was quite attractive. "I couldn't help but overhear your conversation and I'd like to say that I'm flattered and think that you're cute." he says, winking at the end. "I-I u-uhm" I malfunction. I see Micha silently laughing her ass off. "if you wanted to contact me again, here are my socials cutie, see you another time hopefully." he gives us a smile and waves before leaving the cafe. 

"we have arrived with the drin- woah, what happened?" Yoona says placing two drinks onto the table gently. "hahaha, Ara got busted for looking at a guy and hahaha, he called her cute and gave her his socials ahahaha." Micha says, body still shaking from laughing at my reaction. "was he hot though-" "Ara seemed to think soo aha" "sh-shut up guyss. I wasn't checking him out, although he was kinda attractive." "damn, I leave to go and get drinks for us and miss out on the good looking guys. that's not fai- oooohh, guys guys look!" Yoona says, whacking us to gain our attention. three good looking guys just entered the cafe, one of which being the guy who gave me his socials. I immediately ducked my head down and faced the other way. I hear the others laugh at my reaction.

we watch as the guys walk back to the table where the guy was originally sitting. Micha's laughter increases as the original guy winks at me as they pass our table. I look down at the paper he gave me.
