  Sana's father was out and so was Mina's whole family. Mina figured it was best showing Sana some of the basic things the early morning. Last night was not the nicest choice because neither of them had gotten much sleep. Sana was easy to catch up on things. It didn't take 30 minutes to show her around the house.  "I have to leave. You can handle this now, right?" Sana looked like she was astounded. Mina fights the urge to roll her eyes. "You talked." Sana mumbled.  "What?" Sana must have felt completely dumb that she faked a cough.  She must have thought I didn't know her. Or that I am not aware of her existence at all. Mina thought it was cute. She tried to stifle a smile. Mina was walking out the house and Sana followed suit.  "How will you think I showed you around without talking?" Her voice was calm. Too calm for Sana's liking. Sana felt twice as dumb. She couldn't show her face and tried composing a sentence but couldn't think of anything. Mina reached out her hand and Sana thought she was trying to shake hands with her but instead she saw a small paper in between her fingers. Sana swept the paper from Mina's hand. There were numbers on it. "In case of emergency, there's dad's and mom's numbers." Mina said before shouldering her bag.    ∞∞∞   "You're lucky. That's the last. And you would have at least wait for another two weeks." Tzuyu whispered. Mina slightly nudged her when she hand over the bills and thanked the cashier.  She was now holding her limited Fender bass guitar. Mina would have looked like a psychopath walking in a shop if she weren't born with a pretty face. Tzuyu was checking out some drum sticks and think about customizing them. She was holding two different pairs and went about what to choose. "Hard time picking?" Mina said over Tzuyu's shoulder. "Actually, no. I just wanted to kill time." "Great you're involving me to waste." Tzuyu slung her arm on Mina's shoulder leading her out of the shop. "Can I come over?" Tzuyu asked. "I don't think I can do anything worthwhile at home." "No." Mina said firmly.  "Why not?" Tzuyu pouted. "We have guests and I'm so sick of your face. Being with you is like being reminded I am in a band who would have their competition in less than two weeks and will lose eventually." "You're being too much!" Tzuyu fainted a fake hurt. Tzuyu grabs Mina's wrist and marched her way in Forever 21. She checked on some tops and sweatshirts. Mina watches as Tzuyu's smile fades and turn to frown as she touched the flimsy price tag only to be returning it back the rack. "So much for wasting all my allowance for Christmas." Tzuyu moaned.  Mina twisted her shoulders to the front, already feeling the ache of carrying a guitar on her back.  "So can I come over?" Tzuyu asked, once again.  "I told you we have guests." "So? We can just stay in your room." Tzuyu retaliates. She got her hopes high. Being stuck at home means getting bored and getting bored means thinking of someone she shouldn't be thinking of.  "She's someone from school." Someone from class, rather. "From school?" Tzuyu raises her eyebrow.  "Uh-huh. My father texted me late in the afternoon yesterday and told me someone would come over." "For how long?" "Until uncle Ryou would find another job and could sequester their property." "You share the same blood?"  "No. He was my father's friend." "Does he have a child?"  "A daughter." Mina groans, but Tzuyu isn't taking it as a signal that Mina's getting annoyed because of being bombarded with her questions. "What's her name?" "Sana."  Tzuyu thought for a second. Then she'd remember her as the girl who was outgoing and who owns a laugh that magnets their teacher's sermons. She was scolded in class for like five times already and they've been in school for just six months.  "Wasn't she your childhood friend? Or was it Moro? Nomo? All I know is that she's Japanese." "I don't know. Now, stop asking questions." Mina literally whacks Tzuyu's face away.  When Tzuyu's done window shopping, Mina insisted that they go home because she felt her s houlders  getting dislocated. Tzuyu complied only after eating at McDonalds.    ∞∞∞   When Tzuyu wanted something or someone, she always gets it— excluding Nayeon and Mina always felt sorry for her about that. Tzuyu and Mina were now nearing Mina's gate. After a lot of whining from Tzuyu, Mina had enough and decided shutting her up is telling her she's fine with it. "Don't frighten or pull pranks on her. Or flirt with her. Okay?" Mina warned Tzuyu as she fishes her keys inside her pouch.  "When did I start flirting?" "I'm just thinking of possibilities." "Are you her keeper? I know Sana Minatozaki. L
