A couple of days had passed and it was three days before Jeno's father's funeral. He invited us because he thought we should come. I haven't thought about it yet, as my mind was preoccupied with something else.
"Chenle, Jisung, how can I invest in my happiness?", I asked the two who I was currently video-chatting.
"Get back together with Jeno", Chenle nonchalantly replied. "Maybe that'll work. Who knows?"
"I mean—"
"Hyerin", Jisung interjected. "You have been hinting things related to him for the past few days ever since you wanted to invest in your happiness."
"I totally did not", I disagreed.
"Says the person who keeps whispering 'bub' every second", Chenle brought up. "C'mon. Your timing is this exact thing you've mentioned. Investing in your happiness."
"How?", I asked, giving up on all my endless thoughts just to fix one.
"Jeno's been facing the toughest time this year trying to save Lee Cosmetics. I think you should encourage him and bring up the topic there", Jisung shared his opinion. "Then boom! You're back to your disgusting bub calling thing."
I looked away from the screen and checked the time on my wall clock, reading that it was currently 10am. Did he eat lunch yet? He always skips his meals, which is alarming.
"I gotta go guys. My brother asked me to do something", I lied and left the call. I rushed out, asking Taeyong to drive for me.
"What's with all the rush?", Taeyong asked as he started the engine.
"Let's go to Panda Express and then to Lee Cosmetics", I ordered.
"Finally taking my advice?", Taeyong asked as he stepped on the pedal.
"Maybe."

"Oh right, I'm kind of curious about something Doyoung said back then", I said, before leaving the vehicle. Taeyong raised an eyebrow, waiting for me to say what made me curious. "He said there was someone working with the two of you or something. Who was that person?"
"Oh, him", Taeyong said as he pointed out of the window. "Secretary Moon. He informed us about the CEO's actions."
"Wait, you're kidding me", I was in disbelief. "Him?! Really? He should really get an award for acting."
"Yeah, no. He cooks better", Taeyong chuckled. "We call him Chef Moon."
"Really?", I questioned.
"Yes really", Taeyong replied. "Now, go get your man. You ain't staying single forever."
"I could say the same to you", I chuckled. "I'll take my leave."
"Don't come back!", Taeyong jokingly shouted while waving his hand.
