Seulgi and Wendy knew everything about Joy and I because I told them about it today at lunch. What's the point of keeping it a secret when they'll find out sooner or later? 

They knew that Joy was in the house, yet they charged right in like little kids, off to do their own things. Joy could be sleeping ya know!!

I strolled through the door that they left open. 

This is great right? Everyone's here together and safe, but I don't feel so happy-go-lucky because I could sense Joy's gloominess from her room. I went to mine first and cleared my mind before going into Joy's bedroom. I can't believe clearing my mind was that difficult and I know who to blame for that. It was all the racket that Wendy and Seulgi was making upstairs about something stupid -.- 

I knew Joy was in there because when I walked past her room, I heard the air-con going. 

Ok Yeri, pretend to be a psychotherapist so that I can make Joy feel better after talking with her. I pushed the door that's already slightly ajar until more than a third of the room was showing. No sign of Joy. Well, now I know that Joy wasn't on that side of the room. Before I went any further, I knocked, "Joy, may I come in?" I heard some shuffling noises before I entered. She was probably lying down initially, but once she knew it was me, she sat up to look more welcoming. I dunno but that's what I always do every time my parents comes into my room unexpectedly lol

The first thing I saw was the funny-looking pajamas that she had on. I wanted to laugh, but her expression made me suppress that urge. 

She gave me a weak smile, "Hey Yeri." She looked like she was about to burst into tears. I guess she wasn't over the fact that she got suspended... They suspended her for such a dumb reason. Just you wait Mister Kwon or whatever your first name is, imma tell it to you straight that Joy's suspension should be lifted off.

I'm sure Joy knows that she isn't the only one experiencing this. Some people are suspended for a longer time than she is in other parts of the world. Knowing that, she should be able to get over this obstacle pretty quickly with enough support if Master Kwon doesn't change his mind.

The neatness and brightness of her room nearly made me forget the reason why I came here. I scanned the room for hints that I could use to start a casual conversation with her. 

"Sooo, I guess you've found the cake huh?" I asked sitting beside her on the bed. It was just a wild guess because she couldn't have gone the day without looking in the fridge right? The woman needs fooddddd, and it seems like I'm spot on.

"Yes um, i-it was very appetising, and it was cute how it had my name on top of it." She said chuckling. YES! She liked it! Thank-you god Wendy (or/and Seulgi) for making it.

"Did it melt when you saw it?!" I asked eagerly remembering that Wendy or I had to clean the leftover mess if it did. She looked at me funnily, "Don't worry, it didn't melt, thanks to whoever placed it in the fridge in the first place." That's odd, even Wendy was sure that it melted. Maybe Joy cleaned it up for us instead? hmmmm, it wouldn't be surprising because she's a kind soul anyway.

I didn't want to say it was me (even though it was I, who put it in the fridge) because I didn't want to be an attention-seeker. It's more the opposite. I just wanted her to feel good about herself in this rough time. 

"You guys made it because you wanted to make me happy again. I can't thank you enough." Holy Jesus, was she blushing? I swear this is the first time I saw her blush. But then again, she's always had those rosy cheeks. 

"Um yeah no worries, we were actually planning to surprise you yesterday, but you didn't turn up, so I looked for you." Her face darkened. "And... I don't think I need to go through what happened afterwards." I tried laughing it off, but it was making things more uneasy. She's taking this harder on herself than she has to. It has already been done, and there's nothing we could do to change that. It's either we accept it as our first step into our 'relationship', or we move on and forget about it. I hope we don't get to the second
