"Hi honey!" Ara greeted Yunho as she entered the apartment.

"What did you tell Changmin?" Yunho asked smiling a little.

"I told him that you can't come to work later 'cause we're going out today." Ara said, circling her arms around Yunho's neck.

"Where are we going?" He asked.

"Hmmmmm.. Here?" She laughed.

"Here? What are we going to do here? Yah, I should just go to work instead. Aissh!" He said as he pushed Ara a little to have a space between them.

"What!? Don't you want to be with me anymore!?" She exclaimed, folding her arms in her chest.

"Honey, that's not it. You see, I'm not as rich as you are. I need to work to earn money to live and for my family." He explained.

Ara pouted her lips and stomped her feet like a kid, "But I want to be with you today!" She shouted.

"Aish! Okay, okay. I'm sorry." He said hugging her.

"Is your work more important than being with me honey?" Ara asked.

"What? Of course not. I just- Let's not talk about it. Okay?" He said.

They sat on the couch.

"Is there any special occasion today?" He asked again.

"Nothing. I just want us to be together. Actually, I want to be like this forever. Honey, let's get married. So that you won't have to work anymore. I have money for us." Ara said.

"Huh!?" He said. /Are you crazy!?/

"Why? Don't you like my idea?"

"Honey, I'm a man. I should be responsible for the person I'll be with for the rest of my life. I need to work hard and earn money for us to live and have a good future."

"But you'll marry me, right?"

RING RING RING ..

" that phone of yours!" Ara shouted.

Yunho just smiled. /Oh, thank God! My phone saved me./

~~~~~

"You can go home now." Boa said with a sweet smile.

"Thank you ma'am." Jaejoong said, bowing.

Junsu walked with him outside the coffee shop.

"I wish I could go home with you now." Junsu said.

"Don't worry Junsu. I'll wait for you. Hmm.. I think I'll go to the mall for now." Jaejoong said.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Don't worry."

"Okay. I'll call you when my shift ended."

"I'll wait. Goodluck!"

"Bye! Take care. See you later."

Jaejoong then went to the nearest mall to kill some time.

~~~~~

"Who was it?" Ara asked after Yunho finished talking on his phone.

"My mother." Yunho answered.

"Oh, what did she said?" She asked.

"She's just checking if we're fine here."

"Does she knows Jaejoong a lot?"

"Yeah. Jaejoong and I we're best friends since we're in kindergarten. Our parents were best of friends as well."

"Really? You know honey, I think Jaejoong is gay."

"What!?"

"'Cause he's so smooth when he's moving. He's like a girl."

/I know he's not./ Yunho thought.

"Is he dating someone?"

"I don't know." Yunho shrugged.

"Yah, I thought you two are close? Why didn't you know?"

"He doesn't tell me. Maybe he's shy."

"See? A guy can't be like that. If he's straight, he'll be proud to tell everyone the girl he likes."

/She's talking nonsense./ "Oh, I forgot. I'll check him out on the cafe." Yunho said.

"Who?"

"Jaejoong."

"Why?"

"I just want to pick him up after work."

Ara crossed her arms on her chest, "Do you like him?" She asked.

"What? What are you thinking? He's my best friend and he's a guy. Stop thinking that way honey."

"Okay fine."

~~~~~

Jaejoong is sitting on a bench near the fountain outside the mall.

/Sighs. Maybe he's already at work now./ He thought.

"Jaejoong?" Someone called his name behind him then he turned his head to look who it was.

"Yoochun-ssi?" He stood up and faced the man he met at Junsu's house.

"What are you doing here? Didn't you go to work? Is Junsu in here also?" He asked.

"Oh, no. He's not here. He's still at the cafe. I- I just- I'm waiting for him."

"Uh.. Okay. There's still 2 hours before his shift ends. You want to come with me for now?" Yoochun asked.

"To where Yoochun-ssi?" Jaejoong asked him.

"Hey, cut the -ssi," Yoochun chuckled. "Just call me Yoochun."

Jaejoong smiled shyly, "Okay, Yoochun."

"I want to buy something for my sweety. Can you help me?" Yoochun asked him.

"I think so?" Jaejoong said.

"Great! But before that, let me help you with your things." Yoochun offered help.

"Oh, thank you!" Jaejoong smiled.
