Yoon Bomi, Lotte Hotel.

"Jeong Eunji, what are you doing here?!" I tried to sound as calm as possible, once we were seated, I can’t believe she’s here.

"Calm down and happy Christmas to you too, Yoon Bomi~" she pinched my cheek, I had to remind myself this is a gala event.

I saw that Chorong-unnie looked strangely to us.

"Chorong unnie, this is my best friend Eunji... I didn’t expect you two to meet" I said while Naeun smiled shyly.

Something looks suspicious. I'm pretty sure they're up to something.

"We met recently." Naeun said nonchalantly. "Chorong unnie, look at this."

She showed her a card with the names of the people we would share the table with us.

"You can act freely with us, don’t feel uncomfortable at all. In fact we are here to help." Naeun continued saying, this time she was smiling broadly showing her support and Eunji wiggled her eyebrows playfully.

How can it help if they’re behaving in that way?

"That's right. Chorong-ssi, you can be at ease, we'll do what it takes to get everything right." Unnie nodded.

She's been quiet all this time, I guess she's uncomfortable.

I took her hand to assure her that everything would be fine, she looked at me and smiled.

You now what?! To hell with it, I’d stand Eunji and her annoying speech later. I could feel the fangirl auras beside me.

At that moment a group of people approached, Solar holding hands with a man, the other girl I knew back then, was her name Wheein? Accompanied by another girl I didn’t recognize. I guess they'll sit with us. They greeted us, and then the show started.

I will summarize the next two hours, because even I’m surprised and I need to recover from all this…

Throughout all the program we were holding hands, playing with our fingers, gazing lovingly between us. 

Eunji and Naeun talked with everyone at the table, making odd comments about how well we fit together. Who would think they’re actually helping? Because even Wheein and her friend Whasa agreed —they’re hilarius people and if it wasn’t because this is a competition, I would say that I like them—.

I whispered a few times in Chorong-unnie’s ear, without any embarrassment, things that would tell her if we were really together,

About how beautiful she was.

About how honored I was to have her by my side. 

I hope she didn’t take it wrong, I was just telling the truth tho. I could notice the blush on her cheeks.

When the food was served, she fed me and wiped my lips with her thumb, causing me a tachycardia.

The couple in front of us seemed somewhat uncomfortable, they showed up as a couple but there wasn’t much interaction between them.

I guess we were ahead of them, or did we intimidate them?

Solar unnie seemed to be looking in another direction all the time, to two women that were talking at the next table. She seemed sad, even her friends patted her back and looked at her in consolation.

In my years of Human Behavior study, I know certain things. That was jealousy and sadness.

I don’t want to get involved in other’s affairs, so I went back to mine.

A band started to play and to my surprise Chorong unnie took the initiative this time and we danced, at first
