"Okay! Y'all know the drill! Not less than a hundred words, write an essay about your thoughts on the movie we've been watching- Still Alive. You are dismissed, go now! Scoot, skedaddle!" Sir Park enthusiastically dismissed his students but one student wasn't feeling the enthusiasm,
Yoo Jeongyeon is half thankful Nayeon's not serving a full dish of revenge on her or her sister, half curious why.
It's been three whole days the last time she texted or talked to her about anything at all. She just shrugged and went off to the cafeteria for lunch.

•

It's been three whole days, I haven't talked to Mina-unnie again, Chaeng thought.
"Someone's in deep thoughts." The older sister sat beside her and unintentionally slammed a stack of papers and some notebooks on the table.
"Yeah, well someone's busy." The cub gestured at her sister's load of stuff on the table.
"Uhm... I haven't got a chance to give these back to Nayeon."
"Why?" Her sister asked innocently while picking some strawberries
"Well, nothing much but she's kinda mad at me at the moment."
A smile slowly crept on Chaeyoung's mouth,
"I'll give these to her then."
"Uhh, no. If she's mad at someone, she's mad with the whole human race."
"So... how about I ask Pengui- ... Mina-unnie to give it to her?" She then snatched the pile of notes and headed off.
It all happened so quick Jeong wasn't able to react, she just shrugged it off thinking it'll be alright since Mina's way nicer than Nayeon.

"Since she wasn't in the cafeteria, she must be in the library." Chaeng muttered to herself.

"Why drag my pretty here in the library, Myoui?" Nayeon boringly said
"I didn't drag you here, you followed me when you saw Jeongyeon's shadow."
Nayeon groaned with disapproval.

"Hi there, pretty unnies!" Chaeng greeted, her dimple showing
"What brings you here, Chaeyoungie?" Nayeon smiled back
"Oh, good timing. I have these for you, it's from Jeongyeon-unnie." She slowly put the papers on the table,
"These are your notes, apparently you're mad at her, she said, that's why I came." She said while stealing glances at Mina, Nayeon noticed it and rolled her eyes at Mina, who only shrugged and smiled.
"Tell your cowardly sister that she is a complete jerk for making me carry these."
"Will surely do!"
Nayeon stood up and fixed her things and was about to leave,
"Where you going?"
"I'm just gonna put these in the car, Mina." And left.

Mina and Chaeyoung sat beside each other in silence, the latter couldn't contain the pounding of her heart, she missed the penguin,
"Uhhh..."
It was Chaeng who spoke first after a while,
"You're always here. In the library. Why?" Chaeng cursed herself for the stupid sentence composition.
Mina chuckled, making the smol blush,
"Don't you feel safe when surrounded by books rather than people?" She smiled
'You'd be a lot safer in my arms' Chaeng mentally said, she couldn't help but grin at her own thought.
Mina noticed the younger one is grinning like a fool, she took the chance to poke her deep dimple. She let her finger stay there for some time while tilting her head to flash her gummy smile at the tiger cub.

Mina's finger on her cheek plus her gummy smile is equaled to Chaeyoung stiffening plus dizziness plus heart skipped several beats plus blushing redder than Nayeon's lipstick. 'In a much simpler term, I'm dying.' She thought as she thanked God for her deep dimple.
"Since you're blushing that hard, I assume you'd have the guts to ask me out for a snack later."
Chaeyoung composed herself, silently inhaled all the air she could muster and exhaled rather slowly to calm her nerves, and took Mina's hand that was poking her dimple, intertwining it into her hand (which was probably sweaty, she'll apologize later). Mina could probably hear her heartbeat, she couldn't think straight because she was holding Mina's hand, she repeated that to herself gazillion times. When their eyes met, Chaeng noticed Mina was blushing (might even be redder than hers), she laughed.
"You find this funny?" Mina shyly asked
"You're blushing." Chaeng sheepishly said
"So you're saying I look funny when I blush?"
"No, not at all. You look cute. And look" she raised their intertwined hands "our hands fit each other perfectly."
This is dangerous, Mina thought. The tables have turned, Chaeng now has a complete hold of Mina's blush switch. 

Mina could only look down because she was blushing so hard and her heart couldn't stay on its normal beat. She never thought Chaeyoung could affect her this much, she looked up and saw Chaeng's cutest smile and that was that, she now has a crush for what felt like a million years.
"So, wanna drink some strawberry milkshake with me later?" Chaeng was now caressing Mina's hand with her thumb.
'Screw it, I'll say yes' Mina smiled to herself,
"Yeah, sure."
Chaeyoung lifted her free hand and planned to touch Mina's blushing cheek, her hand was just an inch away when somebody behind them cleared , and as if guilty of something, they freed their hands,

"Well, I'm enjoying the Who Blushes Harder game of you two but I'm afraid I need to snatch this penguin away since we still have our classes." Nayeon looked at them both with a smug face.
Mina rolled her eyes at Nayeon,
"I'll see you later Chaeng."
"Wait! Can I have your number first?"
Mina grabbed a piece of paper from Nayeon's grasp and wrote her number and gave it to Chaeng.
Nayeon shot Mina a Seriously?! look and headed out, Mina followed. Before she exited, she signaled Chaeyoung a call me later action.
