Chapter Four
“You’re going on a date?” asks Tiffany in disbelief as her and Jessica walks out of the food court, using the second half of their lunch to do some shopping. Jessica nods her head, as Tiffany hooks pinkies with the older girl. “So does that mean your-“
“No. It’s a date to get the midget pervert off my back. Maybe you should do the same for your idiot,” states Jessica.
“And miss out on all the free stuff? I think not,” Jessica nods her head and leads the girl into a store. “So any clue where she’s taking you?”
“Somewhere well lit with lots of people and I can see her hands.”

“Scored a date?” Taeyeon nods her head happily as she leans against the counter of the shoe store where Yuri and Hyoyeon work with Sooyoung behind her eating. “Where you taking her?” asks Hyoyeon as she hands a customer their change.
“Somewhere dark, so she can’t see my hands and very little people,” responds Taeyeon as she examines a pair of shoes.
“You’re asking for another beating,” states Sooyoung.
“I’m joking…I’m joking. I have no clue…” admits Taeyeon, “I thought she was going to say no again.”
“How about a walk in the park?” asks Hyoyeon.
“Yeah after you feed her something really cheap,” states Yuri as she stacks shoe boxes. “She looks like the type that want money spent on her. Which you have, right?”
“Not allowed to touch the trust fund, Yuri,” says Taeyeon as she turns around, “why do you think I’m working at the ice cream stall. I need money in my pockets.”
“Yeah after she bought the car they put our trust funds on hold, can’t touch it til we graduate from college,” states Hyoyeon.
“Well if I didn’t, we’d be stuck walking,” responds Taeyeon. “Anyways a walk in a park and what else?”
“A nice meal,” states Sooyoung.
“Yeah…and seriously keep your hands to yourself. I don’t want to be explaining to our parents why you have stitches again,” orders Hyoyeon.
“Hey in my defense I didn’t know the book would do that.”
“You also didn’t know she could slug you the way she did the next week, busting your lip. Or how about the kick resulting in a large bruise,” adds Yuri.
“My favorite was the scream that resulted in two week ear lost,” comments Sooyoung.
“So when is the date?” questions Hyoyeon.
“After she gets off work. What should I wear?”
“What you have on,” remarks Sooyoung.
“And keep it on,” orders Yuri. Taeyeon nods her head looking out the shop to see Jessica walk by with Tiffany, pinkies hooked.
“Are they going out?” asks Taeyeon curiously, turning to look at Sooyoung.
“Uh…they’re step sisters…I think. Or about to be step sisters. Or something? I don’t know. I just know that they’re real close. Like super close. Like super freakishly close,” Sooyoung pushes herself off the wall. “Well back to work for me.” Everyone waves Sooyoung off before returning to work.
“I’m off to,” states Taeyeon as she puts one of the shoes back on the display. “I’ll tell you all about it this evening.”
