NCT's Girl Squad

Unexpected Meetup [LMH]: Chapter 7

Rix

What does he mean?

"Found it! I should be going now. See you guys next week" He said, standing up.

"We should also head back." Julie stated, all of us agreeing.

Closing the door behind, we all sat on the couch tiredly. "Did someone call Keithlyn?" Julie asked, alarmed.

Oh yeah... Keithlyn was left in the Philippines since she has to finish something. She'll be here by next month. "It isn't too late though. It's still... 8 in there." Jean answered. Julie opened her phone as we prepared ourselves, fixing our hair and straightening our clothes.

"Keith!" We said simultaneously when she accepted the call. "Hey girls!" She replied brightly. "How's Korea treating you?" She continued. "We went to Smtown without you!" I said, teasing. "How dare you guys! You better take me there when I get there." She said, almost crying.

Then, our conversation started.

Mark

"Woah, hyung. They seemed pretty nice." Donghyuck said, amazed by what I told him. I nodded at him. "Too bad, you didn't meet them earlier." I said.

"Wait. Are they the ones who Jisung said weird?" He asked.

"Oh... That was Leslie." I answered.

"How's she weird?"

"She's bolder than you thought. Once we get to work with them, you'll see her in a different picture. Much different than your first impression." I finalized. He looked at me as if I grew two heads. "Don't believe me? Wait until next week."

"Hyung. Then who's the person you were looking at?" He suddenly asked. "Oh. Rix. She's the girl that I keep meeting on unexpected times." I said. "How many times? Hyung, do you believe in destiny?" He asked.

I looked at him as if he's the weirdest when he is. "No. And I met her like 4 times now." "Hyung. You guys are meant to be together."

"What?!" I almost yelled out at Keithlyn. "You're ridiculous, Keith. Just because we met a lot of times, that doesn't mean we're really fated for each other." I added.

"What? It could be possible." Leslie helped Keithlyn. "You know... You watch a lot of Kdrama, Keith. And you, Les, you read a lot of books. Look at the effect, you're deceiving Rix' mind." Jean defended for me. "That's why I love you." I said to her.

"Maybe." Keithlyn shrugged. "Keith. We should rest. All of us should rest." Julie said looking at us. "We have to make scripts for the concept next week and you have to finish the project you're working on there." She added.

"Bye babies... I'll see you soon." Keithlyn said, almost crying. "Watch our video while you're there." Leslie said, pointing at the screen. "Yeah... I'll even stream it if you want." She joked. "See you soon, seriously. We'll tell the manager about adding you once you come here." Leslie said.

"Bye Keith!" We all said to her before ending the call. "I'm serious about the brainstorming thing tomorrow. So, we also need to sleep." Julie informed me. As we all stood up and went to our rooms.

Now lying on my bed, scrolling my news feed, the thought being fated to Mark came to my mind.

80% part of me hoped it was real.
