So we went to the city. The apartment was indeed a penthouse. The building was according to the windows eight floors high and surrounded by similar ones. They didn't look older than two years.

This must be some newly built area for rich people.

The drive was anything but quiet. The car was a big black van for I think 10 people. Jeongyeon was in the driver's seat and I one the passenger's seat. Dahyun and Sana were far in the back and Mina and Tzuyu in the middle.

Sana and Dahyun were screaming and laughing with each other. It was like they had their own "little" party in the back. At first it was quite amusing but as time passed it got more and more annoying.
Although Jeongyeon scolded the two girls some time, they didn't really care and kept going. She gave up in the end.

Half an hour later we finally arrived.
After Tzuyu stepped out, I saw her taking some earplugs out of her ears.

That's one way to deal with those hyperactive girls.

"I'm sorry for the noise." Was the first thing Jeongyeon said when she stepped next to me.
"I'm curious how you keep up with them, noona."
"I don't. But they are so cute that I can't be mad at them. They are just enjoying life."
"I guess so. Anyway, where are we going?"
"First we get you a haircut." I wanted to jump in, but she cut me instantly off as soon as I tried to open my mouth. "No! Don't complain! As I said, you have to pay it off."
"And how?"
"You'll be working at our restaurant."
"Uh what? You have a restaurant?"
"Yep. I think you'll be a good cook."
"I should cook for you? Don't you have one? Wouldn't I steal someone's place?"
"It's just us nine who are working there and well, not anybody is suitable as a cook." She then looked over to Dahyun and Sana.

They were holding their hands and spinned in a circle, squealing like little girls.
"Can you imagine one of these cooking?"
"Well..."
"Or Chaeyoung."
"What about her?"
"One time she almost burnt our old house down. She got hungry at night and wanted some midnight snack. So she tried to make some sausages. In the end we got all woken up by the fire alarm. I mean, who fucks it up to fry some sausages in a pan."
"Wow, okay."
"And only Jihyo and I really have some talent to cook."
"I see. Well, I'm up for it. It's the least I can do to pay you back."
"Great. So let's go."
"But why do you have a restaurant?"
"First, we still need to make money. Secondly, we have to appear normal to the general public. And by having our own business without other employees, it's much easier to move to the city or country when we have to leave. We let the rental agreement expire and tell the people around us, that we move to another city or so to try something new."
"Ah, I see, makes sense."

We started walking and I almost forgot what I wore. Only the suspicious looks of the other pedestrians made me remember it. I tried my best to hide behind the girls but even Tzuyu was one head shorter than me.

After maybe five minutes we arrived in front of a hair salon. Jeongyeon went in first, then the two loud girls, followed by Mina and Tzuyu. The both latters were really quiet all the time and rarely talked.

Mina seemed like a very shy and introverted person around the others. Sometimes wanting to talk or join the conversation, but not having the courage to.
Tzuyu on the other hand just didn't seem to care.

I went in last and Jeongyeon was already talking to a hair stylist. It was a blonde guy and he looked really stylish. I liked his fashion sense.
He wore a white T-Shirt that reached almost to his knees, black ripped jeans and white sneakers. Simple, but good.

As Jeongyeon pointed in my direction, his eyes grew wide and he tried his best to hide his laugh, but failed eventually. I couldn't blame him.
After some time he composed himself and came over to me.
"I'm sorry, mate. I didn't mean to be rude, but-"
"No problem, it's okay. I know I look hilarious."
"Make him fresh. He'll soon start working at the restaurant." Jeongyeon then said.
"I think I know what I'm going to do. By the way I'm Felix." We shook hands.
"Seungjae."
