“Yoboseo?... Ah! Hyomin-ah good morning… Yah! What do you mean with that? I always wake up early! Anyway I have something to do… This evening? What time?... Ok, I’ll be there… Deh… Don’t worry unnie, I will… Bye bye”
then Eunjung hanged up her cellphone.

‘So it will be this evening mmh? Seem it will be an interesting night. Ah~ what would I do if there wasn’t Hyomin? Eheh, anyway it’s better if I hurry to get ready’

-Jiyeon POV-

Jiyeon woke up hearing her cellphone ringing, it was a message from Hwayoung:
<<Unnie where are you? The lesson is about to begin>>
<<I’m home. Yesterday I was late so I decided to stay here. This afternoon can you send me the homework please? ><>>
<<Uhm… what if I come to your home and we have dinner together? There is something that I want to talk about>>
<<What is it? Is everything ok?>>
<<Yes, don’t worry. I’ll tell you when we meet>>
<<Can’t you tell me now? I’m so curious~>>
<<Nope, I said that I will tell you later. Now I have to go, the class is starting>>
<<You’re a bad unnie L I’m so curious that I can’t sleep anymore!>>
<<Then go to the kitchen and eat something, I’m sure you aren’t too curios for that right? Anyway take care unnie, see you later~>>

‘Aish! I hate when she’s so mean, I don’t eat much… Uff, I don’t think I can sleep anymore’
so Jiyeon got up and went to the kitchen to have breakfast, she took a glass of milk from the fridge and was preparing some bread with marmalade when her cellphone rang again:
<<Good morning unnie! How are you? I’m sorry for write to you now , probably you’re at school… but I miss you so much! T.T>>
<<I miss you to T.T and don’t worry, I’m home>>
<<What? And what about the school?>>
<<Yesterday I was at the bar and when I came home was late, so today I decided to stay here and have some rest>>
<<At the bar? So did you get the job?>>
<<Yup! The owner was satisfied with my work and now I’ve officially found a job>>
<<Really? Wah~ I’m so happy for you! We have to celebrate, what about this Saturday?>>
<<It will be great! Just the two of us ok?>>
<<Perfect! I’ll text you later for where we will meet. Love you unnie, bye bye~ >>
<<Deh~ love you to unnie, bye~>>
“Ah~ finally I will be able to meet my sister-in-law! It’s been a while. I wonder how she look like… anyway let’s eat now”

The day had pass lazily.
After breakfast Jiyeon took a refreshing shower, did the laundry, had lunch and then she passed the afternoon watching random programs on the TV.
Around 5:00 p.m. she decided to check what there was to eat and she found out that there was barely nothing, so she send a message to Hwayoung:
<<Call me when you’re out of school>>
and after some minutes her phone rang:
“Yoboseo?”
“Hey, what’s the problem?”
“I don’t have enough food to cook… it’s a problem if we go to the market?”
“M-mmh, no problem”
“Ok, then let’s meet there. I have to take the bus so I’ll be there in ten minutes”
“Deh, see you later unnie”
“Bye bye”
she took her billfold and went out of the door.

Jiyeon went down to the bus stop that was nearest to the market and when she arrived at the entrance Hwayoung was already there waiting for her.
“Hi unnie! Sorry to keep you waiting”
“It’s ok, I just got here”
both of them hugged and went inside to buy what they needed.
“So, how was the school?”
“To be honest it was boring, we didn’t do that much, so don’t worry”
“Oh thank god!”
Jiyeon said, letting out a relieved sigh
“Anyway, what do you want to eat?”
“Mmh… what about some ramen?”
“Adjudicate! Then we need meet, eggs, bean sprouts and nori seaweed”
“Are you sure that you have all the other ingredients at home?”
“Of course! I’ve checked the fridge and the pantry before, remember?”
Jiyeon pouted
“Ok ok, sorry”
Hwayoung said wile patting the latter’s head.

They arrived at the meat counter and were trying to choose which piece of meat took:
“Unnie what about this one?”
“Mmh… it doesn’t look good. What about that one?”
“To expensive… Ehy! What about this one?”
“…”
“Neh, Hwayoung-ah did you eared me?”
After receiving no response again Jiyeon lifted her head and saw Hwayoung that was watching in another direction lost in her mind.
“Hwayoung-ah!”
this time Jiyeon raised her tone hitting her friend shoulder and it seems to work, knocking the latter out of her dream land:
“Uh? What?”
“I asked what do you think about this one”
“Oh sorry, I th-“
her words were cut off by someone speaking:
“Ehy, so we meet again”
Both of the girls turned to discover that the voice belonged to a young woman with long, blonde hair.
Jiyeon didn’t know that person so she turned toward Hwayoung and noticed that she was nervous:
“A-ah deh…”
Hwayoung said with a light and embarrassed bow of her head, making the latter showing her pretty smile:
“Now I have to go, I hope I will see you again”
“D-deh, I hope so too”
“Bye~”
“B-bye…”

After the girl left they stayed quite for few seconds before Jiyeon spoke:
“Soo… Who is she?”
Hwayoung let out a frustrate sigh before speaking:
“She’s the ‘something’ that I wanted to talk about”
“Well, it looks like a someone more than a something”
“Well… let’s talk about this later ok? I’m so hungry that I could die”
“Ahah ok, then it’s better hurry”
Jiyeon said pulling her friend toward the cash.

After they finished cooking, Jiyeon and Hwayoung were sitting on the couch eating their ramen.
They were talking of this and that when Jiyeon came out with the question:
“Ok, now, let’s talk about that girl. Who is she?”
“She’s a waitress of the café”
“The café?”
“Yes, do you remember that yesterday I went out with our classmate?”
“Oh yes, yes! Now I remember. So? What happened?”
“Nothing in particular. We just went there and we were deciding what to order when she came to our table”
“… and?”
“And nothing! That’s the point! She did nothing, I was the one who started to be nervous without reason”
Hwayoung said massaging her temples.
Jiyeon thought about it for a while before saying:
“Well… maybe you were nervous because you just wanted to make friendship with her”
“… do you think so?”
“Yup… because Unnie, let’s be honest, you’re a very cheerful girl, but when you meet someone for the first time you’re always nervous and shy. So don’t worry too much ok?”
“Maybe you’re right… thanks unnie, you’re the best!”
Hwayoung said while hugging her friend
“No problem, I’m always here for my giant-baby”

When it was time to go, both of them went down the building and took a taxi.
When Jiyeon arrived at the bar she was wearing a pair of pink jeans ripped on the knees, a black shirt with short sleeves, withe wedges and a black hat.
She walked toward the bar and greeted to the barman:
“Jiyeon you’re here! Come on take a sit, soon it’ll be your turn”
“Thanks, can you give me a coca, please?”
“Sure, just a second”
While the guy was preparing her drink, Jiyeon took a look around and noticed that there were more people compared the day before:
“Woow, tonight there are a lot of people”
“Yup! And they’re all here because of you”
he said giving to Jiyeon her order
“Because of me? Really?”
her eyes went wide open hearing his words
“Of course! Yesterday was a big success, today also came two more musicians asking for a job”
“Debak!”

Jiyeon was really surprised, she never though that so many people would come just to hear her sing.
As she was sipping her coca, a waiter came near her:
“Jiyeon-sshi, sorry if I disturb you but… it’s almost time for you to perform”
she was about to spit her drink by hearing what he said
“Really?!”
she took a look at her wristwatch
“Omo I can’t believe time had passed this faster, let’s go”
she finished the rest of her drink in a one-shot a run toward the stage.
After few minutes the owner came out and introduced Jiyeon, when the light went on her heart started beating really fast again:
‘Omo I’m so nervous, but I’m glad to see that the most of these people came here for me’
“Goodnight everyone! My name is Park Jiyeon and first I want to say that I’m glad to see so many familiar faces. I hope you guys will enjoy my performance, tonight song will be ‘Lies’”

While Jiyeon was going toward the bar everyone were complimenting her, she was so proud of her music and seeing that everyone were enjoying her work made her very happy.
“Good job Jiyeon! Here, let’s have another drink to celebrate!”
“Thanks oppa but I can’t. Tomorrow I have school, so it’s better if I go home”
“Ok, be careful on your way home. Goodnight”
“Bye bye~”

Jiyeon was already out of the bar when someone took her hat from her head:
“Hey sweetie”
Jiyeon was so shocked by hearing that familiar voice, she turned abruptly and said aloud:
“I-it’s you!”
Eunjung put the hat on her head while showing her charming smile:
“Did you miss me?”
“Why are you here?”
“I knew that you were going to perform tonight, so I came here”
“How did you know? I’m working here just from yesterday and I’m pretty sure that you weren’t here. Have you been stalking me or what?”
Eunjung crossed her harms and looked in another direction:
“I don’t know what are you talking about. To be honest it was one of my friends who told me that you were going to perform here”
then she shifted her gaze again toward the younger girl and went closer to her:
“Why? Don’t tell me that you didn’t miss me”

*Flash back*

While Jiyeon was getting in the taxi she was so excited to not notice that someone was watching her.
‘Well well, what a nice coincidence’

-Hyomin POV-

Hyomin had just finished to organize the photoset for the day after, she took a shower and since she wasn’t tired she decided to went out.
She wanted to visit her girlfriend, but Sunny had worked all day at the radio station and didn’t want to be disturbed.
‘Uh… what a pity, I wanted to stay with my bunny’
Hyomin decided to go for a drink, a disappointed expression was on her face.

After some time she finally arrived at her destination.
When Hyomin entered, there were some people that were blocking the entrance, so she had to struggle her way toward the counter and when she finally reached it, she sat on a stool and ordered a beer.
While she was drinking her beer the barman approached her:
“Hello there, I’m Joon. What’s your name?”
“I’m Hyomin”
“So Hyomin-sshi, are you here alone?”
“Deh, my girlfriend couldn’t came with me”
“… your girlfriend?”
“Yes, my GIRLFRIEND”
at first the boy started panicking, then he stammed:
“I-I’m sorry, I wasn’t trying to hit on you, neither wanted to be offensive. It’s j-just that it’s rather late and our boss wants us to keep an eye on the girls that are alone”
After hearing what the young boy said Hyomin started laugh:
“It’s ok don’t worry, I understand”
“That’s a relief, I tough you were going to spill your beer on my head or something. Anyway, if you aren’t busy, can you stay a bit more? Soon will be performing our new singer”
“New singer? Ok, I’m not that tired”
Just after Hyomin finished speaking a man went on the little stage behind her and started to introduce the new singer:
“Ladies and gentleman, tonight I’m going to introduce you a young girl who’s going to perform on this stage for the first time, so let’s give her a big applause ok? Here’s to you miss Jiyeon!”
When the curtain opened the attention of the costumers was captured by the girl sat on a stool while holding a guitar.
When Hyomin noticed the younger girl a questioning look appeared on her face:
‘Wait a second, that face isn’t new… where I saw her?’
she mulled it over for a while and when it occurred to her a surprised look appeared on her face:
‘OMG, I can’t believe it!’

When Jiyeon went down the stage, Hyomin stood up and followed her until the entrance and watched her leaving in a taxi:
‘Well well, what a nice coincidence’
While she was going back to the bar with a huge grin on her face, Hyomin took out her cellphone and wrote a message to her best friend:
<<Guess who I just met~>>
 

-Eunjung POV-

Eunjung was almost in her dreamland when she heard her phone ringing:
‘What the… who the hell is annoying me at this hour?’ she grabbed her phone and saw a text message from Hyomin:
<<guess who I just met~>>
The short haired girl took a big breath and sighed before texting back:
<<Who?>>
<<The prey that you let slip last night has reappeared>>
<<Really? Where?>>
<<At the same bar, it seem like she work here as a singer>>
<<What luck. Tell me more>>
<<Everything at the right time, do you really thought it was that easy?>>
All the excitement in Eunjung went away, she frowned and said aloud:
“Oh c’mone! You wake me in the middle of the night and now you’re telling me to wait?! Seriously Hyomin, sometimes you really piss me off>>
She took some time to calm down and then replayed:
<<… what do you want?>>
<<Mmh… I don’t know, let’s just say that you own me a favor ok? I’ll text you later for more details>>
<<FINE! But be fast>>

After sending this message, Eunjung put her cellphone in silent mode and trowed it on the couch at the other side of the room and turned her back to it:
“ it, I need to sleep. I’m not going to let Hyomin have fun of me any longer”

-Hyomin POV-

Hyomin was having so much fun by teasing Eunjung, she decided to leave her on the thorns a bit more.
When she reached the bar she called the young barman and when he was in front of her she asked for his number:
“E-excuse me?”
“Ahah come on, don’t be so nervous, I won’t hurt you. It’s just that I like you… wait, I don’t mean in that way. It’s just that I find you interesting, so how about we keep in contact?”
Joon kept watching her with a blank look
“Ok, let’s say it in the most easier way. What about if we became friend?”
“Oh, ok. Eheh sorry, I didn’t reach the message”
he took a slip of paper and wrote something on it before giving it to her:
“Here, this is my number. Tex me whenever you want ok?”
“Thanks Joon. Now it’s better if I go home, good  night”
“Good night my new friend!”
he said in a exited tone that made Hyomin smile while was going toward the entrance:
‘Seriously, that guy is odd. Maybe we’re really going to became friends’

THE NEXT DAY

-Eunjung POV-

Eunjung woke up early in the morning, she was getting ready to meet her parents.
Last time she met them was three months earlier and for all the time they just kept asking her if she had found a good and rich boyfriend, when she’s going to get married ecc… ecc…
so she was so excited to see them again.
While she was wearing a pair of jeans she noticed that the light of her phone , she reached it and saw Hyomin’s number on the display:
‘Ok Eunjung, STAY CALM.
You know what kind of person is Hyomin, if she feel that I’m mad she won’t stop teasing me. So keep your blood cold!’

“Yoboseo?”
“I have some interesting news for you”
“Ah! Hyomin-ah good morning”
“This is impressive, how could a sleepy head like you be awake at this our?”
“Yah! What do you mean with that? I always wake up early!”
Eunjung stopped for a second and bit her bottom lip, she kept saying in her mind:
‘Don’t be mad, don’t be mad…’
 “Anyway I have something to do”
“Whatever, you’re little girl is going to perform again this evening”
 “This evening? What time?”
“Around half past ten, more or less”
“Ok, I’ll be there”
“Jungie, is it today  that you are going to meet your parents, right?”
“Deh”
“Mmh… well be patient, arasso?”
 “Don’t worry unnie, I will”
“Ok, now I have to go. See yah”
“bye bye”

*End of flashback*

-Jiyeon POV-

Eunjung stepped closed but Jiyeon pushed her away:
“Stop acting like this! Seriously, what’s wrong with you?”
“Nothing, I’m just interested in you. Is that a problem?”
“Yes it is, now excuse me”
and after saying that the younger girl turned around and went in the first taxi she saw.

Jiyeon was so annoyed by the latter acting, she told to the driver to leave as fast as she closed the door.
But then she noticed that her eyes were searching in the driving mirror Eunjung’s figure:
‘What the… Jiyeon are you crazy or what? Why are you looking for her? And why the hell my heart is beating this fast?!’

-Eunjung POV-

Eunjung tried to catch up the girl, but her attention was taken by something that was under her foot
‘Mmh, maybe I overdid a bit… again. Ah~ whatever, what is this?’
She picked it up and started to curiously examined the object:
“Oh god! I can’t believe it”
she said rolling her eyes toward the sky in an unbelievable tone, while a huge smile appeared on her face.
