Sungjae is still in the studio with Hyomin, they discussing about her comeback song,

“I’ll just give you a fun song, but not dance song. What do you think?,” he asked her.

“It’s okay, I like that kind of song,” she said, then Sungjae smiling,

“Okay, I’ll make that kind of song for you. We’ll meet again after I finished the song, okay?,” he said while get ready to leave the studio,

“Before that, should we have dinner tonight?, as my gratitude,” she said, then Sungjae in deep thinking,

“We’ll having dinner after I finished all of this,” he said, she is pouting her lips, “I don’t want to creat anything that make our CEO angry. I’ll leave first, if the song is ready, I’ll contact your manager,” he said then standing, but Hyomin stoping him again, “why?,” he asked,

“Then, you can contact me after you finished the song, I’ll give you my number, or you give me your number,” she said while taking her phone,

“I think it’s better to contatct your manager,” he said,

“Then, he has your number?, okay then, thank you for today writer-nim,” she said then bowing. Sungjae look confused with her behavior.

“Wah..I think she is starting to like you,” Peniel said after heard Sungjae talking about that girl, “she is trying to get closer to you.” Sungjae come to greet them at their dorm after getting text that they just come from their tour,

“What are you saying, today was our third meeting, it’s ridiculous that she is starting to like me, I didn’t say anything to her, except about her comeback song and her voice,” he said.

“Maybe, she found out that you have so many charm after the third time meeting you,” Minhyuk said.

“I said to you, right?, don’t ever make song for girl, it always end up like this. It’s like when we were students. Some of the girls will come to you, and asked you to make a song for them. Song for festival, song for competition, and anything, and you granted that, ” Hyunsik who was with him when university student told them about Sungjae’s past,

“I granted that because they give me money,” he said.

“Hmm..I know, then after that they were starting to gave you something else, like chocolate, flowers, then letter, love letter,” he said, Sungjae look upset after hearing what he said,

“Wahh..I bet if you were the one who became one of melody member, fan will go crazy, right?,” Ilhoon joining teasing him, Sungjae just ignoring them,

“How was your tour?, you’ll go to Hongkong next week too, all of you must be tired,” he said, then standing,

“Hmm..we are tired, but where are you going?, we ordered your favourite food, it’ll come in minutes,” then he is back to his seat, “you never refused your favourite food,” he said then prepare the plates and glasses before the food come,

“You should join us in our tour, it’ll be more fun if you there,” Minhyuk said.

“I have work to do here, I won’t go anywhere before that work finished,” he said, making Minhyuk sigh,

“Then, did you decided what kind of song that you’ll make for her?,” Hyunsik asked.

“A fun song, maybe she’ll featuring with someone who can rap,” he said. Not long after that, the food come, while eating the food, they starting to tell the other something that they don’t know,

“To tell you the truth, I was her boyfriend,” Ilhoon said, “but it’s not that long..just for 3 months,” he said then drink,

“Who are you talking?,” Peniel asked,

“We just talking about that rookie soloist, right?,” the four of them turning their face to Ilhoon, “she was my girlfriend, but we already break up because of some reason, 4 years ago,” after heard that, Sungjae spit out his food, Hyunsik chouging, Peniel went blank, and Minhyuk blinking his eyes so many time,

“Why are you just telling us now?,” Minhyuk asked, “we shouldn’t talking about her.”

“It’s okay, it’s all in the past anywhy,” he said cooly, “then, how about you,” he is pointing at Sungjae,

“I think, I found another reason why I must go to subway station,” he said.

“Why?, aren’t because those reasons that you told us before?,” Hyunsik asked,

“I’ll add it, she’ll became my other reason, ” he said then smiling, “her humming really couldn’t come out from my head.”

“She?, who is she?,” Ilhoon asked.

“Someone that I meet since about  ten days ago, she always there and she always said that we’ll meet again everytime I leave her,” he told them, “she even know when I’m upset about something,” he said.

“Then..what’s her name?, you said before that you don’t  have to know her name,” Minhyuk asked.

“Miss. X, she told me to call her by that,” he said, the four of them looking at each other,

“Why she made that kind of name?, just ask her real name,” Ilhoon said.

“I’ll, I’ll aks her someday,” he said then smiling,

“Wah, you get curious about a stranger, it’s really something that never happen before,” Hyunsik start again.

He goes to subway station earlier than before, not long after he sit, someone sit next to him, he know that she just come so he put off his headphone,

“You came?,” he said, she smile to him,

“Are you waiting for me?,” she look happy, “you look happy today, Yook-ssi,” she said.

“Yook-ssi?, it sound strange, “ he said then looking at her, “You never change your clothes,” he said,

“Because I’m student, so I’m wearing my uniform, is that wrong?,” she said, he shake his head, “something good happen today?,” she asked.

“I can’t do it now, I’ll do it later,” she said without facing her,

“Why?, is there any particular reason?,” he asked, she is shaking her head, “then why?.”

“I’m not in the mood to writing lyric,” she said, “are you taking interest in me now?,” she asked.

“I’m more into your humming, it’s a good melody so I’ll wait for you to write the lyric for it,” he said.

“I couldn’t complete it,” she said, “I lost the chance to do it,” she said, she is looking at someone who just come out from railway office, then smiling, he never see that kind of smile before, so he asked,

“Who is he?, is he, your dad who worked here?,” he never know because everytime he talked to her he always put on his headphone then closing his eyes, she do that everytime when she saw that old man,

“He is my dad who working here for years as train engineer,” she said, “he is really work hard,” the train that  just come from opposite direction is Sungjae’s train, “your train come.”

Sungjae standing from his seat,

“I’m waiting for your song and I’m waiting for you to let me know your name, Miss X. Your real name,” he said then take step to get closer to the train, then he turn his body to waving his hand to her, “I’m leaving now, let’s meet again tomorrow,” he said.

“I’m happy that you start to open your heart for me,” she said after he get in to the train.  There he still waving his hand to her, “stop that waving hand, the other looking at you,” she said then smiling.

He is still smiling although he couldn’t see her anymore,

“Ahh..what’s wrong with me?,” he asked to himself. Then he heard his phone ringing, “why?,” he asked. It’s from his cousin who live with him since 4 years ago, now he is college student, “tell me the reason why I must do that?,” he asked. He want Sungjae to buy ddokbukki for him, “hey, Cha Eunwoo..,” he raised his voice making the other passanger starring at him, “just get that yourself, order it from the restaurant. Don’t order me around,” he said then end the call, “he always busy with something that made himk come home late, why suddenly he come home earlier than before.”

He is Cha Eunwoo, his cousin from his mother blood line, although they live together in one house, he never want to know what he is doing, because he always make his day busy,

“You come home earlier today,” he said while put the ddokbukki on the table, Eunwoo saw that then smiling happily,

“Why?, you don’t like it?,” he asked.

“Hmm, I like it when you spent so much time outside the house,” he said then enter his room. His room is bigger than his living room, because he use his room as his work room too, a lot of his collection he place there,

“Her family want me to come home earlier because I look tired,” he said.

“What?, her?, a girl?, in this past year you come home late because you meet a girl?,” he asked.

“I have crush on her since 2 years ago, she go to the same cramp school as me,” he said.

“What’s her name?,” he asked, “Did you confessed to her?,” he become curious about someone love live,

“Her name is Park Sooyoung, I did confessed to her but rejected. But I won’t give up until she know what I mean by saying ‘I like you,’” he said.

“Stop being so cringy, ” he said.

“I learn from you, you wrote all those cringy lyrics with your own hand,” he said then earned hit from his beloved cousin.
