When I was deciding if I should write these and post them online in a hope to be known in the vast online community, Mr. Min side-eyed me in distate.

"Nothing exciting ever happens in your life," can you imagine the look on his face? He dared to scrunch up his handsome and say that my life was not interesting! But I retorted saying,

"I guess meeting you wasn't that interesting either," the look on his face was worth a gold medal. I wish I had his camera to take a picture of that moment.

"I'm the best thing that's ever happened in your life!" Said Mr. Min in an offended tone. I chortled while hitting the couch repeatedly in my fit of laughter.

"Honey, when did you start liking me?" We sat across from each other, each holding our own pair of chopsticks while slurping up noodles.

"Don't talk when eating," Mr. Min said.

"My noodles are still hot though, come on, answer me," I urged, my eyes brightened up. What came in return was no reply, but a hand that swapped his bowl of noodles for mine.

"Mines half cold, hurry and eat, we need to leave in ten minutes."

"..."

His bowl that was half eaten.

I was out shopping with Juda and Vina one afternoon. Vina being the one leading both me and Juda almost around the entire mall.

"I think the beans are getting to me, where's the nearest restroom?" cried Juda. When we located one, Vina also decided to go so she wouldn't have to have an emergency break later, leaving me alone to watch the shopping bags.

After scrolling through social media on my phone for a while, who knew a group of outstanding looking men would start hitting me up! I have to say, it truly gave me a boost of self confidence in myself at age 27.

But before I could even say a single word to the group of guys asking for my number, my phone started ringing. The name flashing brightly on the phone screen was 'Min'.

I smiled in apology to the few guys and picked up the phone only to be greeted by a,

"Call me honey right now," it was a voice that allowed no objections to be made. So I called out in my sweetest voice,

"Honey~"

Right as I said so, the group of men left after the shocking revelation. Even so, I questioned,

"How did you know I was being hit on?"

Juda and Vina came out from the corner of the restroom entrance patting my shoulder... I could guess by then who was the spy.

"I wasn't actually gonna give them my number, it just feels nice to be flattered..."

"You only need to be flattered by me. I'm making your favorite kimchi fried rice for dinner, make sure to come home early," all I can say is during that moment, it felt like I was on cloud nine, I even smacked my lips and made a loud 'muah' sound. Causing Juda to churn and Vina to squeal. And right before we hung up, he spoke another order,

"Change my caller ID in your phone contacts to 'honey' too."

"..."

And that's how I started calling him honey, whereas he started calling me 'sweets'; together we are as sweet as honey!

Flipping through my school yearbooks made me think of the time when I first met Juda and Vina. It was quite funny actually.

It was at the beginning of our senior year. I was a relatively good student. Though I was late to my first period one day because I was a bit sick with a cold, so I woke up late by accident. And when I entered through the door, a girl about 2 inches taller than me was talking to the teacher. Not really paying attention to her, I said,

"Mrs. Teacher, I have a slight cold so I woke up a bit late," Mrs. Teacher furrowed her brows causing wrinkles to be seen.

Mrs. Teacher didn't have time to reply before another girl ran in the classroom right behind me shouting for the whole world to hear,

"Sorry Mrs. Teacher, I have a cold today so I woke up late!"

At this point Mrs. Teacher gave a very ugly grimace and reprimanded,

"If all three of you coincidentally have a cold and woke up late causing you to be tardy at the same morning period, who really has a cold?!"

It turned out we were all said to be caught using an excuse to be tardy and were put on cleaning duty for a week. The truth being I was the only one that was actually sick with a cold...

This one time on a family road trip, we drove for half a day. I remember when Liana and I walked in the hotel room, there was only two beds. One would be for our parents while the other...

"I call it!"

"Mine!"

We both tried to claim our territory at the same time. We both threw ourselves onto the bed, and started squabbling around with each other, trying to throw the other off. Our brawl had yet to end when we heard our dad state calmly,

"Let Liana have it, she needs her beauty sleep," hearing this, Liana brightened up and stuck out her tongue at me. I felt betrayed.

"Don't I need any beauty sleep? Am I really your biological daughter too?"

"I'm not sure, we should go get a DNA test sometime to see," my mom casually threw out. Liana burst out laughing on the bed.

"..."

We both ended up sharing that one bed anyway.
