“Hello? Hello?!” Jessica yelled through the phone

“What is it?” SeoHyun asked innocently

“Tiffany just hung up on me” Jessica said with disbelief

SeoHyun bit her lower lip as she turned her gaze away

“I bet she’s with the Elites…” Jessica grumbled as she put her phone away

SeoHyun just nodded slowly at Jessica’s comment. She then saw Yuri and Yoona exiting the college laughing together and suddenly felt something inside her move.

Jessica followed SeoHyun’s gaze and rolled her eyes when she saw Yuri and Yoona

“Let’s go” Jessica muttered as she walked off

SeoHyun stood still as she watched the two walk pass. She saw Yoona’s mouth drop wide open as she laughed at Yuri. For some reason, she really missed Yoona’s laugh and was beginning to doubt whether ignoring her was the best thing to do

“SeoHyun!” Jessica said aloud as she stomped her foot

SeoHyun jumped with surprise as she turned to look at Jessica who had her arms crossed

“Sorry…” SeoHyun apologized as she ran up to Jessica

“We did perfectly fine without them. Just pretend we never met them” Jessica mumbled

SeoHyun just nodded slowly at Jessica’s advice. She then looked back to see Yoona being attacked by Yuri and sighed

Yoona who was under Yuri’s arm and receiving a harsh punishment from Yuri caught SeoHyun’s gaze and sigh and immediately stopped laughing. Yuri noticed Yoona’s sudden change and released her

“Something wrong?” Yuri asked as she fixed Yoona’s hair

Yoona gave a long sigh as she shook her head

“Nothing really” Yoona whispered

Yuri raised her eyebrow as she searched around to find what could’ve unsettled Yoona. As she looked around she noticed two figures walking away from them, Jessica and SeoHyun. She gave a sympathetic smile as she patted Yoona’s head

“Don’t worry about them. I’m sure Tiffany will help with the problem” Yuri reassured

Yoona just nodded her head as she walked to her car. Just as she was about to open her car door Yuri’s phone rang

“Hello? Oh Tiffany… They started walking back… Not quite sure…” Yuri said through the phone

“Oi Yoona. Where should we meet Tiffany” Yuri called out

Yoona took her hand back from the car door and stared at Yuri confusingly

“She said she wants to know as soon as possible” Yuri shrugged

“This after… Nevermind…” Yoona trailed off

Yuri raised her eyebrow

“She should go back to SeoHyun and Jessica. We can tell her another time” Yoona said dully as she got into her car and started her car

Yuri bit her lower lip as she watched Yoona drive away

“Hello Tiffany? Could we do it another day? Yoona thinks that with the way things are between us and your friends, you won’t get very far… You should probably go back for today and we’ll tell you when we’re free… Sorry” Yuri apologized

“It’s okay…” Tiffany answered slowly

“Good luck” Yuri encouraged

“Thanks” Tiffany chuckled as she pressed the end button

Yuri put her phone back into her pocket as she got into her car and drove back home.

 

“I guess I should get going” Tiffany sighed as she rubbed Bubz’s chin

Bubz rubbed its head against Tiffany’s hand and gave a small whine

“Taeyeon will be back soon. I need to get back to my friends before they get really angry” Tiffany chuckled

As if understanding Tiffany’s words, Bubz slowly walked to its bed on the side of the room and rested inside it.

“I’ll be sure to visit” Tiffany smiled as she grabbed her stuff and exited Taeyeon’s house, making sure to lock the door behind her

She then quickly hurried to the streets, trying to retrace her steps back to the train station. After twenty minutes of walking and jogging though, Tiffany was in the middle of nowhere, not recognising anything around her

“… Uh oh” Tiffany said to herself as she checked the time

It was starting to get late again and she just knew that Jessica was going to hang her if she didn’t get home before dinner

“You and your sense of direction” a voice chuckled from behind

Tiffany quickly turned around and had her handbag ready to attack

“Need a lift?” Taeyeon chuckled as she pointed to her car

Tiffany felt her heart jump at Taeyeon’s sight and her body started to feel warmer than usual

“No?” Taeyeon raised her eyebrow

“Y-Yes please” Tiffany quickly interjected

“Get in” Taeyeon used her thumb to point to her car as she went to the driver’s seat

Tiffany quickly scrambled to Taeyeon’s car. As she was walking, or stumbling, towards Taeyeon’s car her ankle decided to give way as she stepped onto it. Her ankle rolled as she fell to the floor, her stuff flying everywhere

“Oww” Tiffany exclaimed as she held her ankle

Taeyeon heard Tiffany’s cry of pain and automatically walked back a few steps to find Tiffany on the side with her stuff scattered everywhere and holding her ankle which seemed to be turning a little red. She rolled her eyes as she walked over to Tiffany and picked up all her stuff before throwing them into the car. She then returned to Tiffany and checked her ankle

“Why are you so clumsy?” Taeyeon growled under her breath

Tiffany held her breath as Taeyeon touched her leg. Her hands were just as warm as they were that day at the train station

“Can you walk?” Taeyeon asked, stopping Tiffany in mid thought

“Y-Yeah” Tiffany said as she quickly got up

As soon as she put pressure onto her injured leg she winced in pain and fell back down, only to have Taeyeon stop her from having her injure her backside by holding onto her arms. Before Tiffany could even register that Taeyeon had caught her, she threw her arms around her shoulder and carried her to the passenger seat of the car

“I-I’m fine. Really…” Tiffany stuttered as she felt Taeyeon’s body warmth against hers

Taeyeon just ignored her as she set Tiffany down into the passenger seat and put the seat belt onto her.

Tiffany gripped onto the sides of the chair nervously as she waited for Taeyeon to move away from her. When she finally did, she let out a sigh of relief

Taeyeon popped into the driver’s seat and started the car

“Minus twenty points” Taeyeon suddenly said

Tiffany looked to the side at Taeyeon with her eyebrow raised

“I’ve decided on a little system that might help. We’ll use points. Every time you do something and I start to like you from that action, I’ll give you points. If you do something to make me like you less, I’ll deduct points” Taeyeon said calmly

Tiffany’s eyes popped wide open at Taeyeon’s system

“Once you’ve reached five-hundred points, it’ll mean you’ve succeeded in making me fall for you” Taeyeon continued

“Five hundred?!” Tiffany exclaimed

Taeyeon just nodded as she started driving down the street

“You have until Christmas. I give and take points easily too, so it’s a win or lose situation”

Tiffany was speechless

Not only had things just gotten harder, but now she had minus twenty points

“I’m sure you’ll be able to remember the points. Or would you like something to record the points on?” Taeyeon asked as she turned her attention to Tiffany

Tiffany knew that she wouldn’t be able to forget her points that easily, but she wanted to make sure

“What do you have that can record the points?” Tiffany said determinedly

Taeyeon just nodded as she reached her free hand to the back of the car and pulled out two new iPads. One with a pink cover and the other with a blue cover.

“There’s a counter app installed on that iPad. You record the points on yours and I’ll also record the points on mine, that way neither of us can cheat. Every time we add or deduct points…” Tiffany winced at the word ‘deduct’. “We’ll check the scores to see if they’re both the same” Taeyeon said without taking her eyes off the road and handing the pink one to Tiffany

The iPad looked as though it was just bought. Not a single scratch or marking on it

“Did you just buy these?” Tiffany asked curiously as she lifted the iPad up

Taeyeon just nodded briefly

“You probably also called Yuri and Yoona to ask about immortality right? You can record them onto there, there’s a file in which you can save the information you collected. That file is protected by finger print pass code so only you’ll be able to access it” Taeyeon explained

Tiffany furrowed her eyebrows

“I don’t think such an app exists” Tiffany interjected

Taeyeon just chuckled

“I’ve got my ways. I think I know more about IT than all of Microsoft’s and Apple’s designer’s combined”

Tiffany blinked a few times, trying to understand what Taeyeon had meant

“I won’t be giving you information. You have to find it yourself. That iPad will be your personal iPad. Do whatever you like with it. As long as you don’t accidently leak the files or tamper with the counter that is”

“Why are you doing all this?” Tiffany asked sceptically

Taeyeon shrugged

“We’re here” Taeyeon said as she undid her seat belt

Tiffany looked out to see that they were in front of Sunny’s house

“I only needed to go to the train station” Tiffany said slowly

Taeyeon opened the passenger seat door and undid Tiffany’s seatbelt as she helped her up

“With an ankle like that? I don’t think so” Taeyeon said with a serious tone

Taeyeon, with Tiffany’s arm over her shoulder, reached to grab Tiffany’s new iPad and stuff from the back of the car before proceeding to help Tiffany up to the door

Tiffany started blushing as she felt Taeyeon’s breath close to her cheek. The image of Taeyeon kissing her replayed again in her mind.

“Wait” Tiffany suddenly said as she planted her feet to the ground

Taeyeon stopped and gave Tiffany a weird look

“Close your eyes” Tiffany said softly

“Why?” Taeyeon asked bluntly

“Just do it please?” Tiffany whined

“Why?” Taeyeon asked again

“I said I’ll be trying to make you fall for me right? I want to try something” Tiffany bowed her head low

Taeyeon raised her eyebrow but then just sighed as she closed her eyes

Tiffany looked up to see Taeyeon’s eyes closed

*An eye for an eye, a kiss for a kiss* Tiffany thought determinedly

She then leaned in against Taeyeon and pressed their lips together

Taeyeon’s eyes immediately popped open as she felt Tiffany’s lips touch hers. She immediately pulled back and used her arm to cover

“What are you doing?!” Taeyeon said with her eyes wide open

Tiffany tilted her head to the side and gave Taeyeon a curious look

“An eye for an eye, a kiss for a kiss right?” Tiffany said innocently as she began pouting

Taeyeon stared at Tiffany as she tried to understand what Tiffany was saying

“A kiss for a kiss” Tiffany said bluntly as she used her finger to touch her lips

Taeyeon sighed with disbelief

“Are you serious?” Taeyeon said in a sarcastic tone

Tiffany furrowed her eyebrows

“I was repaying YOU the kiss. I didn’t ASK for a kiss” Taeyeon emphasize

“Repaying me?”

Taeyeon just scoffed and stuck her tongue into her cheek

“That night when I carried you back home drunk. You pulled me into you and pressed your lips onto mine. I only kissed you back then as revenge for that night” Taeyeon explained in an annoyed tone

Tiffany blinked a few times as she tried to remember that night

Taeyeon then just rolled her eyes again as she took Tiffany’s new iPad out and unlocking it. She then opened the counter app and deducted twenty points.

“Minus twenty from before” Taeyeon whispered before deducting another fifty points. “Minus fifty now”

Tiffany’s eyes popped out of their sockets as Taeyeon turned the iPad around, revealing her minus seventy points. She opened to argue but was stopped when Taeyeon held up her finger

“I can easily deduct more” she interrupted

Tiffany automatically closed and pouted

Taeyeon smirked at her new found power and locked the iPad.

“Hurry up. I don’t want Jessica to have another reason to come after me” Taeyeon muttered as she took Tiffany’s arm and threw it around her neck again, helping her up to the door

*This * Tiffany complained as she hopped along

 

 

 

“Hmmm. Looks like she’s found a new toy” Gikwang snickered from afar

The dark figure was also with him

“Toy?” The figure asked as they turned around and looked at Taeyeon who was carrying Tiffany to the door

“Looks like they were doing something with points” Gikwang shrugged

The figure narrowed their eyes as they focused on Tiffany

“She’s going to slow down the process of getting Taeyeon back…” the figure whispered

“Most probably” Gikwang shrugged

The figure slapped Gikwang from the back of the head

“Ow!” Gikwang exclaimed

“That’s not a good thing” The figure growled

Gikwang rubbed the back of his head and mentally cursed the person who had hit him

“Well if it happens it happens. Not like we can do anything about it” Gikwang complained

The figure this time pulled on Gikwang’s ear

“Owwww oww oww!” Gikwang whined as he followed his ear which was being ripped from his head

“We can do something about it. For now observe what the relationship between the two are. And if needed, interfere” the figure growled before letting go of Gikwang’s ear and walking off

When the figure was nowhere in sight Gikwang stuck his tongue out in their direction and rubbed his ear

“What a ” Gikwang cussed as he turned his attention back to Taeyeon.

 

 

“You’ll be fine from here” Taeyeon said as she set Tiffany’s stuff down

“Aren’t you going to apologize to Sunny again?” Tiffany asked quickly

Taeyeon shook her head

“Maybe next time” Taeyeon said as she walked back to her car

Tiffany pouted as she watched Taeyeon get into her car.

The door behind her opened suddenly as Taeyeon’s car drove away

“Finally!” Jessica yelled as she opened the door widely and let Tiffany in

Tiffany bent over to get her stuff and hopped inside

“Where were you?” Jessica wasted no time in asking

“I told you. West side Seoul” Tiffany grumbled as she hopped to the nearest chair

Jessica watched curiously before taking Tiffany’s stuff away from her

“Did you fall over again?” Jessica sighed

Tiffany just bit her lower lip and nodded

Jessica rolled her eyes as she proceeded to put Tiffany’s stuff onto the table while Tiffany hopped, limped and dragged herself there

As Jessica put the load of stuff down, she noticed a pink casing that caught her eye.

“Well what do we have here?” Jessica said as she took the pink casing and lifted it, revealing the new iPad

“Don’t… I mean… I got a new iPad” Tiffany quickly said as she took the iPad back

Jessica raised her eyebrow at Tiffany

“Since when were you earning money?” Jessica asked suspiciously

“I had been saving up for a while…” Tiffany lied as she put the iPad back

“Oh welcome back Unnie” SeoHyun greeted, unofficially ending Jessica and Tiffany’s discussion

“Oh Hyunnie. Could you get me the first aid kit? I rolled my ankle recently” Tiffany smiled sweetly as she point to her ankle

SeoHyun just nodded slowly as she went to find the first aid kit

“What’s up with her?” Tiffany said, noticing SeoHyun’s glum aura

Jessica shrugged

“You know how she’s like. Never gets mad at anyone for too long. I think the guilt is getting to her” Jessica said casually

Tiffany raised her eyebrow at Jessica

“I told her that we got along fine without the three, we can get along fine now” Jessica shrugged again

Tiffany frowned at Jessica’s theory

“What?” Jessica said innocently

Tiffany was about to say that Yuri, Yoona and Taeyeon were innocent. That what they were doing was for their own goods and that they had no right to be mad at them or blame them for anything. But SeoHyun came back in before she could even open

“Which foot is it Unnie?” SeoHyun asked as she opened the box

“It’s fine I’ll do it. Thanks SeoHyun” Tiffany smiled as she took the bandages out

“I’m going to tell Sunny to make the food” Jessica said tiredly as she walked out to find Sunny

SeoHyun let out a long sigh as she sat on the floor beside Tiffany’s legs

“Unnie… You’ll listen to me right?” SeoHyun said quietly

Tiffany blinked a few times, surprised that SeoHyun would ask such a question

“Of course I will. Why, what’s wrong?” Tiffany asked sincerely as she sat down beside SeoHyun

SeoHyun pulled her knees up and rested her chin against her knees

“It’s about Yoona and the others” SeoHyun said slowly

Tiffany waited for SeoHyun to continue

“Jessica says that we’ll get along fine… And I really think that she’s right… But somewhere inside me… I feel like I’m going to regret this in the future” SeoHyun said sincerely

Tiffany just smiled as she patted SeoHyun’s back

“Why do you feel like you’re going to regret it?” Tiffany asked as she returned back to bandaging her ankle

SeoHyun just shrugged

“I don’t know” SeoHyun whispered as she hid her face into her knees

Tiffany clipped the poorly wrapped bandage in place, promising to do a better job later, and shuffled closer to SeoHyun

“You know SeoHyun, you have to learn to think for yourself. As your Unnie I’m glad that you listen to your elders and do what we tell you to, but you really have to learn to stop relying on our decisions” Tiffany said quietly, making sure that Jessica couldn’t hear

“But I’m scared that if I decide for myself I’ll get things wrong” SeoHyun mumbled

Tiffany just chuckled

“SeoHyun, you’re old enough to know what’s right and what’s wrong. I’m sure you can make decisions on whether one action is right or not. And besides, everyone is allowed mistakes once in a while.” Tiffany smiled

SeoHyun took her face from out of her knees and looked at Tiffany

“Unnie… I want to talk to Yoona again” SeoHyun whined as her eyes began to water

Tiffany smiled brightly as she brought SeoHyun into a hug

“I’m sure you’ll be able to talk to her soon. You just have to make the first move” Tiffany said in SeoHyun’s shoulder

SeoHyun just nodded as she buried her head further into Tiffany’s shoulder

“What are you two doing?” Jessica interrupted

She was standing at the doorway with a piece of bread in

“Just sisterly bonding” Tiffany smiled as she pulled away from the hug

SeoHyun quickly controlled her emotions and put on a smile

“I’ll help Sunny” SeoHyun excused herself as she scuttled to the kitchen

Jessica stopped chewing the bread in as her eyes followed SeoHyun

“What’s up with her? Wasn’t she depressed a minute ago?” Jessica asked curiously

Tiffany just shrugged

*One more to go* Tiffany thought to herself as she stared at Jessica
