Mingyu looked at his phone wallpaper and smiled

“I miss you” he muttered

Mingyu stood up and walked towards the door

“Where are you going?” Joshua asked

“To the restroom” Mingyu said

“Be back soon~” SeungCheol said as Mingyu nodded

Mingyu walked to the drinks section as he grabbed a drink for him when his gaze shifted to the girl struggling with the drinks

“Here let me help you” Mingyu said as the girl looked at him
“Ah Kim Mingyu of Seventeen right? You’re here for the dream concert too?” the girl asked as Mingyu nodded helping her carry the drinks

“I am Yeri of Red Velvet” the girl said as Mingyu nodded

“I know…” Mingyu said

“I am a fan of Seventeen!” Yeri said as the two walked towards Red Velvet’s waiting room
“The boys listen to Red Velvet a lot too” Mingyu chuckled

“Ah jinjja? Maybe Red Velvet and Seventeen could meet someday” Yeri smiled as Mingyu nodded

“And congratulations on reaching number 1” Mingyu said as Yeri nodded

“I hope Seventeen will shoot to the top with the promos” she said as Mingyu chuckled embarrassed

“Let’s hope so” he said as Yeri looked at the door in front of them
“This is our waiting room, do you want to meet the unnies?” Yeri asked

“Maybe some other time…the boys are waiting for me” Mingyu said as Yeri pouted

“Arasso then…let’s meet again” Yeri said offering her hand for a shake as Mingyu shook it

“I’ll see you around” he said bowing and walked away

Yeri smiled at herself as she walked into their practice room

“Drinks” she said as the girls cheered.

FEW DAYS LATER: THE DORM – Tokyo

Mingyu called Byul

*The number you are trying to reach is out of coverage area—*

“Aish” he muttered

“she must be busy, give her a break” Wonwoo muttered when the manager walked in

“Mingyu, did you break up with TaeByul?” the manger asked as Mingyu looked at the manager

“Ani, wae?” he asked as the manager looked at the boys

“Anyone else knows about this?” he asked as the boys looked at each other

“About what~?” SeungCheol asked

“Did they really break up?” Dino whispered to Veron

“Or maybe she dumped him” Minghao whispered

“If you guys want to talk secretly at least lower your voice a bit” Seungkwan sighed

“Hyung, what were you just telling us?” Mingyu asked, a bit worried

“The CEO said there has been a rumor since that Dream Concert” the manager said

“What rumor?” Mingyu asked as the manager showed him the photo of Mingyu and Yeri smiling and talking to each other

“Isn’t that a member of red velvet?” Hoshi muttered

“What’s this?” Jun muttered

“Yah hyung, there has been a misunderstanding…I was just helping her” Mingyu said panicking

“But would the people think you were just helping her?” the manager sighed

“Oh god he is so dead” Woozi whispered

“Is it out yet?” SeungCheol asked

“Not yet…” the manager said as Mingyu sighed

“We need to get back to Seoul” he said as the manager nodded

“Go pack your bags boys” the manager as the boys nodded.
