“Momo, you're drunk. You need to rest” Mina heaved a tired sigh. 

It's been half an hour already since she started convincing the drunk Momo to rest but the latter just kept insisting that she's alright and that she wasn't tired yet. 

“But I'm still talking to my friend” a pout formed on Momo's lips. 

“But you're only talking to that empty bottle of soju!” Mina retorted

“It's not just a bottle! It's my friend. You're hurting Juju's feelings” she held the said bottle closer to her while answering Mina. 

“Juju? She just gave the lifeless bottle a name!” Mina whined to the others who were just watching the both of them the whole time

“She's drunk, unnie. What do you expect?” a small laughter escaped Chaeyoung's mouth 

“But she's been talking nonsense for a long time already.” a cute frown became visible on Mina's face

“Then get used to it. Momo usually talk nonsense so take this as you're training stage before you take her as your girlfriend” Jihyo shrugged before giving her fellow 97-liner a teasing smile. 

“I already got used to it, even though I've just known Momo for a month” Mina looked at Momo who's still enjoying the bottle's company, before talking again, “I find it cute to be honest. She's really cute right now and it makes me adore her. But she's seriously drunk right now and she badly needs to rest” Mina sighed with a concerned look

“You got a point. Well, if she doesn't listen to you then you must use force” Dahyun gave Mina a smirk while wriggling her eyebrows. 

“Force?” Mina gave her a curious look in return 

“Yep. Why don't you just carry Momo unnie just like what Tzuyu did.” Dahyun suggested and before Mina could reply, she added “But to be original, just piggyback her instead”

“Trust Dahyun to have ideas like this” a chuckle escaped from Jeongyeon's lips

Mina pondered for a while but once she took a glance on the drunk Momo, “I guess I don't really have a choice” she closed her eyes tight before letting out a deep breath then she slowly faced Momo. 

“Momo” she calls out, trying to get the latter's attention but failed 

“Hey Momo” Mina called once again but this time she patted Momo's shoulder that successfully got her attention 

“Eh? What are you doing here?” Momo asked while squinting her eyes at Mina 

“Huh? We've been talking just minutes ago. And this is my house so of course I'll be here” confusion was written on Mina's face since Momo had asked another weird question

“This is your house? But aren't penguins supposed to be in Antarctica? Why are you here? And why are you talking? Does penguins talk these days? ” Momo continued to ask the younger some questions and Mina could only face palm while the others couldn't help but to laugh at the scene. 

“This moment is ing priceless” Jeongyeon burst out laughing 

“I agree” Chaeyoung high-fived with Jeongyeon while laughing along

“Be quiet guys, Mina's having a hard time” Nayeon scolded them 

Mina glared at the two, completely shutting them up but they were still laughing but less audible this time. 

Mina then looked at Momo again but was surprised to see that the other Japanese is staring at her cutely with squinted eyes. 

“Hey, wanna do something fun?” Mina asked Momo with a grin

“What?” Momo asked then tilted her head to the side 

“Hop on” the younger then turned around before continuing, “It'll be an experience to ride a talking penguin right?” she turned her head to give Momo a smile, urging her to ride on her back. 

“That's awesome! I'm going to brag to Sana about this” Momo squealed in excitement before hopping on Mina's back

Mina adjusted to Momo's added weight on her back first before standing up. 

“Unnie, you can put Momo unnie at the couch since it's big enough that three people can basically sleep on it” Chaeyoung suggested which Mina agreed to

While on Mina's back, Momo kept snuggling on Mina's hair, inhaling her scent. 

“You're not a penguin” Momo suddenly said

“Huh?”

“You're scent, it's Mina's. Are you Mina? Or are you a penguin who's pretending to be Mina?” Momo asked

“It's up to you. You can depend on your imagination” Mina replied with a smile, she find it amusing that Momo remembers her scent

“Hmm..this is nice” Momo sighed in satisfaction while snuggling closer to Mina

“It is.” 

After a few steps, Mina gently placed Momo on the couch and was about to go get a blanket for her but Momo held the younger's wrist 

“Do you need something?” Mina asked

“Yes”

“What is it?”

“You” and in a swift motion, she pulled Mina by the wrist causing the latter to fall on top of her

“Y-you're really d-drunk! Ju-just rest well o-okay? I'll g-get a blanket f-for you” a blush crept on Mina's face then she tried standing up but Momo held on her real tight, securing her in place that it was impossible for the younger to even give Momo some distance. 

“I don't need a blanket. You're warm. You're warmth is enough to prevent me from getting cold” Momo said in a seductive manner while looking at Mina's lips that didn't go unnoticed by Mina

“Don’t look. You're too young for this” Dahyun suddenly placed her hands on Chaeyoung's eyes, stopping her from seeing the scene
