Yonghwa’s grip on his beer mug tightened when he heard Chanyeol “Yah! Will you listen to me now? And forget the love of your life for a moment.” He looked at Chanyeol irritably and a hint of jealousy painted his tone
“Chill!” Chanyeol responded while holding his hands up in surrender “So he really has realized his feelings.” He thought smiling to himself “Chuwa!”
Yonghwa drank his beer before he continued the lies he made up before he came. “Is my acting convincing enough?” he thought while looking at Chanyeol behind his long lashes
“So you wanted Shin Hye back?” Chanyeol asked “I’d be glad to help.” He continued
“Aniya!” Yonghwa said forcefully that made Chanyeol startle. He bit his lower lip and said after a pause “I mean, don’t you think it’s a little too soon for me to pursue her back? I think I’ll give her more time”
Chanyeol nodded “If you say so. Just tell me if you need my help.” He said

Joo Hyun and Chanyeol were having their break from dance rehearsals and were drinking their bottled water. They were talking animatedly when Chanyeol’s sentence was cut mid way; he saw a girl came in. Her face that of an angel, dressed in tights and loose shirt she walked gracefully inside the dance studio oblivious of the stir she made because of her presence.
Chanyeol blinked his eyes once and then twice. He felt his heart has quickened as he stared at her.
Joo Hyun looked at Chanyeol’s expression with a smile on her face, she knew her friend too well. She saw that expression a long time ago and was glad it has passed. She motioned her hand in front of his face. “Yipou?” she asked
Chanyeol’s eyes rounded in amazement as he looked at her. “How did you…?” he asked
Joo Hyun spread a teasing smile. “Of course I’d know!” she said now grinning
Chanyeol’s face reddened in embarrassment “Aniya!” he said and look the opposite way but the girl’s reflection on the mirror was all over the room.
“You’ll have to leave the room if you plan not to look at her. She’s all over the place literally.” She said in a teasing tone “Aigoo! Uri Chanyeol is growing up.” She tapped his head as if he was a little child
Chanyeol gave her the warning look before he stood up and started to dance.
“Arasso.” she smiled and went to the girl who is now drinking water to Chanyeol’s surprise.
“Annyeonghaseyo.” Joo Hyun said politely to the girl, she slightly bowed
The girl smiled and bowed “Annyeonghaseyo.” Now sealing her water bottle
“I’m Seo Joo Hyun.” She introduced “You’re a new trainee?”
“I’m Park Luna” she responded and nodded “Yes, I just got accepted the other day.” She said silently
“Nice meeting you.” Joo Hyun answered and inquired about her age “Oh, you can call me unnie then.” She said in a friendly tone
“Kamsahamnida, for approaching me first. I was really worried, since I’m a bit shy” Luna said her face flushed
“Don’t mention it. You can be with us if we’re here. Our schedules might not be the same” she offered
“Us?” Luna gave her a questioning look
“Yes, us. I’m here with my best friend, a trainee too. Come, I’ll introduce you both.” She said leading the way
Luna followed her to the young man dancing “Wow, he’s really good.” She thought “Unnie. Is he your best friend?” she pointed at Chanyeol shyly
Joo Hyun nodded “Yes, he is.” She smiled proudly
“Omo, your best friend is a guy?” she said a little startled
“Yup. Is there anything wrong with it?” she answered
“Ani, it’s just that I expected him to be a girl.” She smiled a little bit embarrassed
Joo Hyun and Luna stood side by side across to the now panting Chanyeol. “Yah, I want you to meet a new friend.” Joo Hyun smiled mischievously
Chanyeol reached for his towel and wiped his face before he faced both girls. His face void of any emotion, he looked at Joo Hyun and gave her a barely noticeable raise of his left eyebrow before his eyes flew to the girl he was looking at earlier “Yipouda” he thought
Joo Hyun knew that she got a warning sign again; she smiled to herself when she saw him acting cool. “This is my best friend Chanyeol.” she started to introduce
Chanyeol bowed “Park Chanyeol imnida.” And smiled lightly while looking at her
“And this is Park Luna, a new trainee here. She’s our age.” She continued
“Park Luna imnida” their eyes held each other, she bowed and smiled lightly her face turning bright red
Joo Hyun looked at the two getting awkward; she chuckled and clapped “Ok! Let’s practice together!” she said and went to play the music
Chanyeol and Luna was relieved when they heard the word practice, they both sighed and started to move freestyle.

Chanyeol went out to buy snacks when he spotted Yonghwa outside the dance studio. “He must be waiting to see her” he thought and smiled “Why won’t he just confess?” he said
“Oh, he thought we’re together. That’s why!” he mumbled “Now he’s acting like a stalker.”
--
“Yah! It’s getting late. Let’s go home.” Joo Hyun whined while looking at him and Luna
“How about you go ahead and just leave me here, I wanted to practice more.” Chanyeol answered
“Luna?” she asked while looking at her
“I’ll practice a bit more.” She said while she glanced at Chanyeol shyly, who is now busy rumbling his bag for something
Joo Hyun pouted, she turned and started to gather her things “Aish!! You only met today and you’re already flirting with each other. Aigoo” she mumbled to herself when she noticed Chanyeol texting “Yah! I thought you’re practicing? Why are you texting!” she yelled at him
Chanyeol gave her an innocent look “Huh? I was just activating my alarm so that I won’t stay too late tonight” he reasoned to Joo Hyun’s retreating back “See you tomorrow Dangshin!” he yelled
--
Yonghwa received a text message from Chanyeol “Joo Hyun passed out! Please come here ASAP!” that’s what it says. Without second thoughts he stormed in the dance studio.
Joo Hyun was walking hurriedly when someone bumped her. She closed her eyes tightly expecting pain from her fall when she felt an arm encircling her waist in swift motion which prevented her landing on the floor.
Yonghwa was preoccupied over Chanyeol’s text to see his surrounding when he bumped someone hard. His reflexes reacted to prevent the woman he bumped from falling.
“Mianhe. Kwenchana?” a familiar voice said. She opened her eyes slowly and looked at the familiar eyes that have been hunting her dreams.
Yonghwa took a good look at the one he bumped and held her even close when he recognized her, he looked at her beautiful face and glanced on her full lips.
Their position seems awkward, too close. She straightened herself as soon as she realized their situation and cleared her throat “Kamsahamnida. It’s okay, I did not see you coming too” She said trying to sound calm, when her heart is racing “I’ll go ahead.” She said and walked passed him
