Collab or Co-love?//BOOK 1//

40: Don't know what anymore

"Chaeyoung"

"Chae"

"Cubs"

"Kid?"

"IDIOT!"

Jun shouted and Chaeyoung jumped out from her seat. She got into her defense stance, still half-asleep.

"The fuck are you doing?" Jun asked and Chaeyoung opened her eyes.

"Oh... It's just you" Chaeyoung dropped her stance and went back to her seat.

"Are you eating enough? You look shabby" Jun said and put her bag on the table and sat on the couch.

"I'm fabulous" Chaeyoung said and took a sip from her yesterday's apple juice.

"Disgusting" Chaeyoung made a disgusted face.

"That's gro- wait. Did you take a bath? You smell like the dumpster behind the building" Jun pinched her nose close.

"The one with the dead rats? That's the other building's dumpster" Chaeyoung said and stretched her upper body.

"So you didn't take a shower?" Jun asked with nose still pinched close.

"Mhm" Chaeyoung hummed.

"DiSgUrSTinG shAt" Jun copied Lee Min Ho and Chaeyoung laughed.

"I'll take a quickie Unnie" Chaeyoung said and Jun made a terrified expression.

"What?" Chaeyoung asked as she noticed her Unnie looking at her in horror.

"You'll take a QUICKIE?" Jun asked emphasizing the word.

"Uh yeah? A quick shower" Chaeyoung said and looked at her confused.

"Oh! Oh.... Oh... Oh"

Chaeyoung gave her a look face before grabbing her extra clothes in the drawer and headed to her bathroom inside her office.

Chaeyoung took a bath and finished in half an hour. She just wore a simple plain black shirt. White lose pants and specs.

"Now that's much better" Jun said as she sighed in approval.

"But what happened to you? You really look like a homeless bum who sneaked inside the office and decided to sleep here" Jun said and Chaeyoung shrugged.

"Hey... You can tell me anything" Jun said while looking at her sincerely.

Chaeyoung sighed. Its been 96 hours since Mina flew back to Japan and she misses the penguin ever since.

"I just miss Mina" Chaeyoung confessed.

"To the point where you won't take a bath?" Jun asked and chuckled when chaeyoung scoffed.

"No but really though. Day 4 since Mina went back to Japan and you're like this. She'll stay there for a month. What will happen to you?" Jun asked and Chaeyoung laughed softly.

"I just miss her Unnie. You're just exaggerating stuff" Chaeyoung said.

"Idiot. If I haven't said that you smell like trash, you won't shower" Jun said and Chaeyoung shrugged.

Jun sighed and pulled her tablet out to check for emails, messages and schedule of Chaeyoung.

Chaeyoung looked at Jun and sighed. She started working again.

"Mina? Honey?" Mina's mom knocked on the door.

Mina fluttered her eyes open and the sun rays hits her face. She groaned and rubbed her eyes.

"I'm coming in" her mom opened the door and went in.

"How's sleep?" she asked.

Mina smiled a little and greeted her mom a good morning.

"It was good. Thank you for asking"

"No problem honey. Let's eat breakfast. Your Otou-san is already at the table waiting" her mom said and she nodded.

Her mom went outside the room as she said she just needs to take 5. She stood up from her bed and went to her bathroom.

She saw her reflection on the mirror. Messy hair. Dark circles around her eyes.

"Why did I slept so late last night?... Oh yeah..."

Mina sighed and brushed her teeth.

(Flash back)

"I'll go sleep now. Goodnight Okaa-san, Otou-san and nee-san" Mina kissed their cheeks and went to her room.

"Has it been 4 days since I went here?" Mina asked herself.

She laid on her bed and hugged a tiger pluzhie her dad bought for her.
She looked at it's face and rembered one specific person.

"Chaeyoung-ah" Mina smiled and patted the tiger's head.

She suddenly misses the cub and so she grabbed her phone from the lamp stand.

She turned it on and tapped the gallery. She started browsing the pictures in her phone. Mostly, it's he remembers and Chaeyoung.

Then she stumbled again on the picture. (A/N: see ch. 31)

She stared at the picture. Just stared at it. No thoughts at all. She saw how she looks at Chaeyoung.

"I look so... Inlove. Am I gay? But I had a crush on Bambam... So I'm bisexual? But I might be just crushing on Chaeyoung because she's cool... I'm so confuse" Mina shook her head and put her phone on the table without turning it off.

"I'll just sleep" Mina closed her eyes and a few minutes later, she's sleeping like a baby. Baby ni Chaeyoung hihi.

(Eof)

"Oh honey! Goodmorning~" Mina's dad greeted with a big smile.

"Morning Otou-san" Mina smiled back and sat on the chair in front of her mom.

"Where's Kai nee-san?" Mina asked as her mother gave her a bowl of rice and grilled salmon.

"Oh he went to work early. But he said  to say good morning to you" her mom smiled.

She nodded and ate rice with grilled salmon on top. It was a normal and typical breakfast but it was sure filling for their stomachs.

"I'm going to shop. Do you want something?" her mom asked and gave her meds with a side of glass full of water.

"Anything works for me" Mina smiled and drank her meds.

Her mom nodded and she kissed their cheeks before going back to her room.

She laid down on her bed and just stared at the ceiling. She's in a deep thought about last night.

"Chaeyoung..."

As soon as she said the name, her heart started beating fast.

"Oh my god..." Mina blushed. She hid her face with a pillow and tried to calm her fast beating heart.

"D-do I like her?" Mina asked no one and closed her eyes.

"I need to talk to Okaa-san... I've never felt this way..." Mina said and sighed.

Indeed, she have never felt this way. She might have crushes but falling inlove is a different case.

Ya think she's I live with Chaeyoung or just an infatuation?
