"Are you sure you're fine to do this?" 

The longer they kept him from doing what he planned on doing, the more they were getting into his head and Baekhyun's sudden doubt made Kai rethink about his plan. The cafe that Kai brought them to was the cafe that he bumped into with Mira, and it now seemed a lot smaller, now that it had him and the other guys taking up two tables which was almost a fourth of the cafe.

"I thought you guys were all for it? I thought you all wanted her to remember?" Kai questioned, not sure why everyone was being so distant and unsure now. They were so in favor for her to remember, but now it was as if they were getting cold feet.

"It won't be easy, you know that right?" Sehun asked with a stoic expression. Kai nodded boldly.

"This may not turn out how you want it," Lay added. Kai nodded again. He was well aware of the consequences and he was willing to take the risk despite what may happen.

Kai tried his best to regain the hope that the guys were now losing. "Hey dudes... We all knew that this wasn't going to be some walk in the park. We all knew that this plan may not go the way we want it to go. We know that she may not remember. But remember what we agreed on? No matter what the hell happens, we will always stay by her side. I mean, even if she doesn't know why, we owe it to her for bringing us back together," Kai informed everyone and hoped that people would come back to their senses.

It was no easy task but if there was any chance that she could remember, they would take that chance and do anything to get her to. "Are you guys ready for this? I mean, this will affect us all; each and every one of us," Baekhyun confirmed and wanted to make sure everyone was alright with this. Slowly but surely everyone nodded their heads. "Now... How exactly are were going to approach her?" Baekhyun asked a good question.

Some bit their bottom lips and some averted their gaze else where. Everyone was quiet and didn't know how they should all approach her.

Sehun spoke up first quietly and everyone's attention flew to him. "Well... My parents know about all of this and... They believe it's best if we do it at our house. They want to be there, too... And at least if things don't go the right way, then she'll already be at home and my parents can comfort her. They want to have a dinner and would like to invite you guys. I mean, it's not something we have to do. It's a suggestion though." 

"Well, let's do it then! No need to think of another plan, right?" Luhan agreed and gazed at everyone. 

"Plus your parents must want to help. We should consider their feelings, too," Kyungsoo added on and asked Sehun. 

"Alright, guess that's settled then. We just have to figure out when to hold the dinner," Sehun sighed out of relief and was glad to get that issue resolved. They just needed a day where all of the guys are free. 

"We should do it after the auditions. If we talk to her now, it'll distract her. She really wants to make it in," Kai explained to the guys and didn't want to jeopardize Mira's chance of getting in the dance show, especially since he plans on dancing with her.

"When are the auditions?" Chanyeol asked and in return, Chen briefly answered, " It's coming up in two weeks. On Thursday. After that, then we'll be ready to talk to her." Everyone approved and they would have more than enough time to prepare themselves. Sehun stated that they should all be prepared mentally and if they have anything that would help her to remember, to bring it.

At last, they could all relax for awhile. The guys who bought boba were sipping the life away from their drinks while others bought crepes and desserts. Sehun got up to buy himself another drink, in which Kai got up as well to buy more. Chen, Tao, Luhan, and Chanyeol all requested for more drinks and gave Sehun and Kai money.

The two walked to the line and were contemplating on what to get themselves, when the door opened, causing the newly put holiday bell over the door to chime. "Hey, dude! What's up!" Kris called out from behind the counter to the guest who came in.

"Hey, man!" The stranger walked over to the cash register and greeted his friend. They high-fived and did a quick handshake, making Kai quite jealous of their close friendship. Surprisingly, Sehun, as well. But neither expressed that.

"Hold up, let me help the customers real quick. I can help whoever is next!" The stranger agreed and nodded his head while he stepped aside the cash register and waited.

"Sehun! Again? Haha, I know you loved bubble tea but not so much that you would want more drinks within the hour! Just kidding. What can I get for you guys?" Kris smiled.

Sehun and Kai repeated their friend's orders to Kris and he swiftly rung them up, read out their orders without any mistakes, and informed them to stay around the side so they could pick up their drinks and pastries. Kris returned to his friend while Sehun and Kai waited in front of the counter to wait.

"So, what brings you to my work?" Kris asked. The other male took off his sunglasses and placed them on the collar of his shirt before brushing his hair back with his hand. Sehun noticed his bold actions and turned to Kai as he nudged him with his elbow. "Ey! What?" Kai groaned and rubbed his ribs.

"Look at this pretty boy," Sehun scoffed. "But I'm diggin' his kicks though," Sehun nodded his head towards the guy's shoes, in which Kai looked and agreed. "His jacket is pretty fresh, too. Damn, this guy looks like he makes bank," Kai assumed, looking at the male from head to toe.

"Or has bank," Sehun corrected. Either way, whether if he earned the money or his parents provided the money, he looked pretty wealthy either way. 

The male caught a glance of the two boys and gave them a princely grin, catching Kai and Sehun off guard. Kai whispered lowly to Sehun, "Okay, cocky much?" Sehun couldn't help but let out a laugh and covered his mouth.

"Who are those handsome fellas?" The stranger nodded towards the two laughing kids, Sehun and Kai, and directed the question to Kris. 

"Ah, the tall, skinny one, Sehun, is a friend of the family business. His family owns the restaurant I told you about; the one I want to take you. And the more well-built guy with the blonde hair, Kai, is his ex-best friend. They're good guys," Kris spoke genuinely of them and smiled at their youthfulness.

"I see. They seem fun to be with. Wait, ex-best friend? They look like friends still?"

"Separated because they went to different middle schools and although they go to the same high school, they didn't start talking again until this year; their senior year. All because of Mira, Sehun's sister," Kris informed his friend with the information about the group. 

"You always know the gossip around here, Kris. I admire that skill of yours. Hm, you mentioned a girl? Mira? What is she like?" The friend asked Kris, but the sound of Mira's name suddenly sparked an interest in Sehun and Kai. How is it that this stranger knows her name? They couldn't help but eavesdrop onto their conversation.

Both Kris and his friend were both oblivious and were too absorbed into their conversation to notice that Kai and Sehun may be listening. "She's a real jewel. Sweet girl, been through a lot, tough like a diamond. A diamond in the rough. But don't even think about pursuing in a special girl like her. Plus you're not worth it," Kris teased his friend and received a playful punch on the arm.

"Says you! You don't know what kind of guys she's into! Unless... Did you two date in the past?"

Kris laughed loudly and denied that accusation. "No! She's like a sister to me! A really good friend. Nothing more. That's why I'm telling you this, as a friend. Don't do it. If you won't fear me, be prepared to go through a line of guys in order to get to her," Kris informed with a serious tone now.

"Sehun, your drinks and food! Enjoy~" A girl employee called out cutely and was quite familiar with Sehun and his family too. She also has a crush on Sehun and was glad to hear that Mira was like a sister to him and not his girlfriend. She has tried many times to befriend Mira, but Mira wouldn't let her get close to her. The girl batted her eyelashes and tossed her hair back in front of him and his friends, who didn't really notice to be honest.

"Thanks, Suzy. Hey guys, get your stuff!" Sehun called out to the guys and sat back down on the couch. 

"Suzy, don't worry. Sehun is blind. He likes girls but he's picky. Hang in there!" Chanyeol assured Suzy before returning to the guys. He sensed that she had a crush on Sehun. It wasn't completely obvious, but then again, every time she saw Sehun, she bats her eyes and tosses her hair back. Suzy blushed at Chanyeol's some-what encouraging words and ran off to the back to hide from her embarrassment.

"Hey Kris, mind introducing me to them? If I'm going to stay for awhile, I'd like to make some new friends. Not that I don't appreciate you as a friend, haha!" 

"Yeah, c'mon! I'll introduce you." He called out, "Hey Suzy! Can you work the front for a little bit please? I'll be right back!" Suzy came out from the back in an instant and agreed.

Kris took off his apron and walked out of the door and met his friend around the side. They both walked towards the group of boys, which made them shut up and just look at Kris and the random male. 

"Hey Sehun! Sehun's friends! For those who don't know me, my name is Kris. The one who makes your drinks most of the time and gives you discounts," Kris introduced himself and received cheers and thanks from the guys.

Sehun named off all of the guys from left to right, "This is Chen, Tao, Baekhyun, and Kai. And on my left, you already know Chanyeol and Kyungsoo. And these guys are Lay and Luhan. Thanks again for hooking it up, man!" He directed the thanks to Kris.

Kris bowed and smiled. "It's no problem at all! Anyway, this is my friend and he's back in town for awhile." Kris patted his friend lightly on the back and smiled.

The male bowed and gave off his princely grin again, making the other guys almost question their ual orientation. Almost. He did have a nice smile, face, and clothes. "Hello, everyone! Nice to meet you all! Many call me Suho. I'm not from around here and asked Kris to introduce me to you guys; I hope we're not bothering you."

"Don't worry, man. You're not bothering us! Nice to meet ya, Suho!" Baekhyun greeted with a happy tone and already the atmosphere was calm. Suho grinned and thanked all of them.

Suho looked down at his white-gold watch, which was super shiny and attracted the guys' attention. "Well, I have to get going. I have to help my parents unpack some more things," Suho answered and apologized for having to leave right after they met. The guys' eyes now turned to Suho himself and forgot about the watch in order to say goodbye. 

After they all said bye, Kris offered to walked Suho out, while Sehun and Kai felt uneasy and looked at each other. After hearing Suho talk about Mira, they weren't sure if they wanted him to get close to her. Like Kris had informed, she's been through a lot. He doesn't know her past like they do and they still have to break the truth to her. 

Kai whispered lowly to Sehun, "It may be just me, but I don't trust that guy, Suho." Sehun smirked, making Kai raise his eyebrow. "Good thing we both agree on something," Sehun replied. Although they haven't talked in a while, the two were still able to agree on some things.

"One and two, and three and four, and five and— Chen, what are you doing?"

"Huh? What? I'm doing the dance!" Chen answered optimistically with a grin on his face.

"No, I know that. But, what are you doing? With that?" Mira pointed at the item in his hands, which made him look down.

"Oh, this?" He held up the cup of ramen in his hands. "It's food. I'm hungry! You haven't given us a break for almost two hours now!"

Chen's whining was too similar like a kid's whining – Annoying, annoying, and oh! Annoying. But Mira thought maybe she was being a little strict. Or too strict. With the auditions in a couple of days, there was no way she was going to let all of them slack off.

"Fine, fine. We'll have a ten minute break and—"

"Fifteen!" Chen interrupted and yelled out, but Baekhyun pleaded with no shame, "No! Thirty!"

"Twenty-five and that's it, okay? We'll be do
