“I just couldn’t sleep thinking about you.”

                “I care about you, don’t you get that?”

It was already 3:00 am but So Hyun was still wide awake. She kept on hearing the words that Joo Hyuk and Sung Jae had said to her that clearly showed their feelings towards her. She couldn’t sleep at all, thinking about them and the feelings she have for the both of them. She started to get confused and she felt terrible about it. She kept on thinking and thinking and thinking.. Until she finally fell asleep.

                “Wake up!” So Hyun could hear someone. “Wake up, you lazy bum.” So Hyun finally opened her eyes.

                “Good morning sunshine!” Suhyun greeted and So Hyun sat up from her bed lazily.

                “Geez, I thought you have a sleeping curse or something. You’re so hard to wake up.” Sung Kyoung accused.

                “Oh. So Sung Kyoung was the one who called me a lazy bum.” So Hyun thought, rolling her eyes.

                “Are you feeling sick So Hyun-ah? Why are you still in bed at this hour?” Hayi asked.

                “Why?” So Hyun asked groggily. “What time is it exactly?” She continued.

                “It’s 1:00 pm.” Hayi answered.

                “What? That late?” So Hyun was shocked. “But what are you guys doing here? Barging in my room like this.” So Hyun accused but the three girls were just looking back at her excitedly.

                “We’re going shopping!” Suhyun exclaimed enthusiastically.

So Hyun, Hayi, Suhyun and Sung Kyoung were in a mall. The four girls were so happy to be together, shopping and having fun. It has been a long time since they got to go out just the four of them. After shopping, they decided to go in a cafe just inside the mall. They decided to sit just outside the store. Sung Kyoung and Hayi were already seated while So Hyun and Suhyun were still ordering inside the store for their foods and drinks. As soon as they got out from the store, So Hyun felt a presence hovering around and she scanned the place to look but again, there was none.

                “What is it?” Suhyun asked.

                “It’s just.. It’s nothing.” So Hyun lied.

So Hyun and Suhyun reached their friends and sat directly to their seats. So Hyun and Suhyun sat side by side while Sung Kyoung and Hayi were seated just in front of So Hyun and Suhyun respectively.

                “What’s wrong? You’re having a weird face.” Sung Kyoung commented.

                “I know, right? But she wouldn’t tell me.” Suhyun accused.

                “It’s not that serious, okay?” So Hyun assured but the girls just gave her their knowing looks. “Fine. These past few days I felt like someone was following me where ever I go.” So Hyun confessed.

                “What? Who?” Hayi asked, worried.

                “Oh, come on! She might just be imagining things.” Sung Kyoung stated, sipping her frappe.

                “Exactly! That’s why I didn’t want to tell you in the first place!” So Hyun accused.

                “Come now, dear. Let’s just all enjoy our frappe, okay? And after this, we shall continue shopping.” Suhyun suggested and the others started to scowl at her direction.

                “Haven’t had enough? Seriously! Do you really want to empty the mall?” Sung Kyoung exclaimed.

                “Oh, if you only knew. I could do this all day!” Suhyun declared.

                “Just give it up, Kyoungie-ah. You know Suhyun is a shopaholic so you shouldn’t be surprised at all.” So Hyun reminded, shaking her head.

                “Umm.. Guys? Shouldn’t we worry about the lurking unknown person who’s after So Hyun?” Hayi asked.

                “Aissh. Yah, Soo Hayi. Didn’t you hear what everyone had concluded? It’s just So Hyun’s wild imagination!” Sung Kyoung stated. “After all, So Hyun is quite imaginative and wild.” She added and snickered.

                “Yah! What do you mean by that?” So Hyun accused.

                “I don’t know guys. I just felt threatened all of a sudden. What if So Hyun’s imagination is true? What if someone’s after her? Or us? And worse, he might be a secret assassin whose mission is to kill us!” Hayi said, wearing a horrified look and the girls just looked at her like she was crazy.

                “THAT.. Is what I call a WILD imagination.” So Hyun exclaimed and Sung Kyoung nodded in agreement.

                “Hayi-ah, do you still need some coffee? I guess you need some more.” Suhyun said. “Here, you can have mine.” She added, giving her the half full cappuccino frappe.

                “Oh! Thanks Suhyun-ah.” Hayi accepted the drink happily.

After having their snack, they continued on shopping. They were inside a clothing store – The YG Fashion Boutique. The place was a lot bigger compared to a regular boutique. It was designed like of that in a house made of mahogany. It was lighted with a large crystal chandelier and the ambiance was refreshing. They even have a small cafe for the customers.

                “Wow! As expected from YG.” Suhyun praised. “Yoon Sung Kyoung.. You lucky wench!” Suhyun was jealous of Sung Kyoung being the model for the YG clothing line but Sung Kyoung just ignored her.

Sung Kyoung was not in the mood because of her period (menstruation). She needed to go to the bathroom so she grabbed Hayi with her while So Hyun and Suhyun stayed and waited for them to return. When Sung Kyoung was in the cubicle, she told herself that she needed to change but she didn’t have an extra napkin with her.

                “!” Sung Kyoung cursed.

                “What’s wrong, Kyoungie-ah?” Hayi asked from outside the cubicle.

                “Hayi-ah, do you have some spare napkin with you? I forgot to bring an extra with me.” Sung Kyoung exclaimed.

                “Oh. I’m afraid I don’t have any but I can bring you one.” Hayi stated. “I’ll be right back.” She added and left.

So Hyun was busy choosing a dress when she saw Hayi passed by the window store. She noticed that Hayi was in a hurry and Sung Kyoung wasn’t with her. She became worried and decided to follow Hayi but ended up losing her.

                “Great! Now I lost her and what’s worse, I lost my way. Where the hell am I?” So Hyun thought.

So Hyun was about turn back from where she came from but she again felt like someone was watching her. She stopped from walking and she could hear footsteps along with hers but it stopped as soon as she stopped walking. She started to get scared and tried to scan her surroundings. There weren’t much people so she immediately spotted a man in black, wearing a face mask and sunglasses. She panicked and started running until she saw a sign indicating a Comfort Room and quickly ran inside. So Hyun entered one of the cubicles and locked it. She stayed inside until she heard someone.

                “Kyoungie-ah!” So Hyun heard Hayi’s voice. “I brought the napkin that you need.” Hayi informed.

So Hyun felt relieved hearing Hayi’s voice but she suddenly flinched in surprise when Sung Kyoung cursed. So Hyun was worried so she immediately got out from the cubicle she was
