"No? Listen to me! She is bonkers!" Jihyo said to Tzuyu who was facing the bar.
"Look,  Jihyo, Let them handle their own problem, I am sure Jeongyeon is  already talking to that hoe." Tzuyu said, stirring her cup
"Oy! Language!" Dahyun commanded

"Sorry!"
"It's just that it annoys me too much to even see Irene have her hand all over Jeongyeon!"
"get over it, that was just a publicity stunt for Red Scarlet. Besides! ICEY got their fame enough." Tzuyu said monotonously

"Yeah? then why is IRENE going all over Jeongyeon again?! Why is she here?! Isn't she and Red Scarlet global now?!"

"Jihyo? If you were not in love with Nayeon right now, I would think you are gay for Jeongyeon!" Tzuyu laughed
"Shut up! So this is what a guy gets for being a good friend huh?"
"You are way too protective"
"I am the leader! I have to be!"
"Whatever!" Tzuyu laughed "By the way, have you told Nayeon to meet us here?"
"Yeah probably on her way after her vocal practice."
"Seriously.. why haven't you told her yet.." Tzuyu smirked
"Tzuyu.. you know Nayeon has a thing for Jeongyeon right?"
"eh.."
"I am not stupid to do such a thing and hurt myself.."
"You already are stupid.."

*Cling*

"Welcome- oh! baby!"

"Hey babe, Mind if we chill for a bit?" Momo giggled
"pft. Give me a break" Sana scoffed

"Why the long face Sana-chan?" Dahyun laughed and patted her back
"Stop it, and go make someone else Jealous! you two will break up soon!" Sana scoffed
"Harsh!"
"Shut up!" Momo smacked Sana's nape

"anyway, Come on,Tzuyu and Jihyo are here too." Dahyun smiled
"eh what?"
"oh!" Momo smirked and nudged onto Sana
"Shut it!"

Dahyun led the girls onto the counter where Tzuyu and Jihyo are  found. They see the boys talking and laughing and over all just having  fun in the conversation. Sana began to feel nervous the closer they  reach to the boys.

"Oh! Look! It's Sana and Momo!" Jihyo waved catching their attention "Hey girls! Over here!" he waved
"Hi boys!" Momo laughed "what are you guys doing here?"
"Chilling? Our practice are done so.."

"-How's ThinkBlack going?" Tzuyu interrupted and asked Sana
"oh geeze, hi Tzuyu, yes! Thank you for noticing me" Momo puffed
"Hey! I waved and bowed!"
"Yeah well you only care for our Sana.."
"No I don't!"

"Don't worry! She likes you too! Now go get a ro-"
"Momo!"
"What!! well you do? didn't you tell me he-"
"Shut up!!"

Tzuyu chuckled and continued sipping his tea. Tzuyu and Jihyo moved  to an open area where it is easy for Jeongyeon and Nayeon to find since  they are anticipating their friends to come by.
"Nope! You sit across me!" Momo told Sana with a smirk
"What?!"

"Okay! let's eat!" Jihyo snickered and instantly sat beside Momo
"I know what you are doing!" Tzuyu bent down to the latter and grabbed his collar
"What  are you on about? This is my seat!" Jihyo smugged. Tzuyu loosen his  grip and began sitting beside Sana with his eyes closed and his arms  crossed. The two acquaintances were silent.

The girls began ordering food and Dahyun gladly served their orders without hesitation while the business runs smoothly.

***

Chaeyoung and I began walking the street on the way to  Dahyun's coffee shop. It is kinda quite, too quiet. she has never said a  word ever since we stepped out of the house. I am pretty sure the girl  we saw at the mall this morning, was her girlfriend.. EX? girlfriend? I  don't even know..

"Mina" Chaeyoung uttered my name and froze in place
"Yes? I am here.."
"You should be disgusted of me right?"
"What? I would never!"
"even if you knew i like girls?"
"you  have the right to love Chae.. It's not my duty to tell you who you are  not allowed to love." I smiled and held her hand "besides, you're my  friend because I like you and I feel comfortable with you."

She grasped my hand tighter when I said those words to her, It looks  like she is in need of appreciation. How dare this person does not  appreciate such a loving girl as she is. If I were a boy, I would date  Chae.. oh wait, If I wasn't straight I would I mean.. because, ha.. she  likes girls, so even if i am a boy she would not date me- you know.. you  get the point!

"Mina? Is that you?" A familiar voice called out behind me as I turned to see who it is.. Oh !

"Omy gosh! Mina! It is you!"
"Oh.. h-hey Irene! you're back in Seoul" I smiled awkwardly as she grabs me for a hug
"YEAH! i just got back, three days ago! how are you and Bambam?!"
"ha,,ha.." I pulled away from her and smiled "actually, we broke up.."
"Seriously? when?"
"2 days back.."
"omy  I am so sorry! WHAT DID HE DO TO YOU!!" She searched my body for any  type of bruises, but I pulled away before she gets to see my wrist.

"Nothing really.."
"omy I am sorry! are you in a middle of something?" She pulled out
"Oh no nothing really, My friend and I are just about to go to a coffee shop for-"

"Chaeyoung.."
"Hey Irene.."

"Wait? you know each other?"
"Yeah.. a few years back when I was a trainee at SM Entertainment.."
"What a small world indeed.."
"ha..  yeah.." Silence broke between us for a moment and she uttered a word  once again "I hope you and Bambam could fix it.. I mean it's been 2  days.."

"Yeah, I doubt that.." I laughed
"Oh? You found someone?" Irene laughed
"No? I am just.. happy with what I have, focusing on my career." I smiled
"Right!" she smiled.

Chaeyoung gripped my hand tighter trying to indicate for us to get  going and leave. I am way ahead of you Chae! I wanna leave this girl the  moment I saw her... In case you are all confused?
This is Bae  Joo-hyun.. In short, IRENE of Red Scarlet. A famous Visual all over  Korea and her group. They've been running global now so I barely see her  often. She and Bambam, are.. hmm. Best of friends.. and I am all in of  ignoring or staying away from anyone who is associated with Bambam  itself..

Now? I just learned that she knows Chaeyoung.. For a famous celebrity.. I am confident she knows ICEY as well..

Why  am I associated with artist?! The only artist I should be associated  with was Momo, Sana.. and the YG Family... ONLY!! Did I mention ONLY?  Yes! ONLY! but ever since Momo met her online girlfriend Dahyun, who is  in fact Best friends with Tzuyu, who happens to be part of the ICEY Boy  group, and Chaeyoung happens to be Jeongyeon's best friend... to Which  in simpler terms!..

MOMO! YOU ARE MY ROOT CAUSE!!! GOD DAMN IT!!!

"Mina.. we gotta get going now.." Chaeyoung spoke
"ah right- Irene, I'd love to catch up, but we needed to meet our friends-"
"can I come with?"
"Wait.. what? - I mean the place we'll be at is crowded.. so i dont-" Irene hanged her head low and pouted.

God damn it woman!!

"It's okay.. I understand you are busy..I-"

"Okay come with us!"

I.. DID NOT MEAN TO SAY THAT! GOD DAMN IT MINA!

"Really?" She smiled and Chaeyoung looked at me weirdly
"y-yeah.." I saw Chaeyoung rolled her eyes as she let go of my hand and walked away
"Come on let's go.." I said
"Okayy!" She exclaimed

***

Jeongyeon arrived with Nayeon at Dahyun's coffee shop and  found Momo, Sana, Jihyo and Tzuyu playing a Jenga game while shouting on  the edge of the corner.

"JIHYO! WHAT THE HECK!! STOP CHEATING!!" Tzuyu smacked Jihyo's head for blowing over the Jenga tower
"NO!? I AM NOT! I AM GIVING YOU AIR YOU STUPID MAKNAE!!"
"Boys! Boys!" Momo laughed
"Wow! You two are just amazing at the game!" Sana continued laughing
"You know Jihyo is cheating!"
"I know but watching you two is hilarious!" Sana added

"Shut up loser!"
"What did you just call me?!"
"Loser!! I CALLED YOU A LOSER!!"
"TAKE THAT BACK TZUYU!" Sana shouted
"No way! Get away from me! Ew! you got cooties!!"
"What are you!! NIIINE?!?!"
"SHUT UP!!!"

"Wow! it's oddly lively in here" Jeongyeon uttered coldly walking towards them
"Please guys, don't scare my customers away?" Dahyun pouted
"Jeongyeon! Nayeon! You made it!" Jihyo cheered
"Yeah! can you guys kick Jihyo out?" Tzuyu scoffed
"Whatever! he is just salty!" Jihyo laughed
"YOU!! BLEW MY TOWER DOWN YOU IDIOT!!!"

"Boys! stop!" Nayeon laughed "You two never changed.." she chuckled
"Oh right- Nayeon I want you to meet Momo, my girlfriend and her friend Sana.." Dahyun smiled

"Hello nice to meet you" Momo and Sana bowed
"Nice to meet you too, My name is Nayeon, Im Nayeon." She smiled and reached out for their hand

"Wait! Im Nayeon.. You mean the soloist? right?" Sana exclaimed
"haha, yeah, Glad you heard of my work."
"Heard it? I loved it! I am so sorry I did not notice you at first glance!" Sana bowed
"no no no. it's okay. Please.. treat me like an ordinary person.." Nayeon chuckled
"Yes mam. I mean. Sure!"

*ding*

"oh a text!- It's from Chae" Tzuyu uttered as he read the message his eyes widened. "Oh no.."
"what is it.."
"It's Irene.. she's coming here.." Tzuyu showed the text message to the group

"Irene? you mean Red Scarlet Irene?" Sana asked

The boys nodded and in urgency they began standing up and tried to  pull Jeongyeon  off his seat but was suddenly alerted by a small cling  from the shop's door

A loud crowd outside of Dahyun's coffee shop can be heard and the customers inside went ballistic.

"Looks like she did pay you a visit.." Nayeon smiled
"Whatever" Jeongyeon remained calm and relaxed with his eyes closed

As soon as Irene came walking through the coffee shop door, Chae and I were followed by mobs of fans.

*cling*

God damn! These fans! what is wrong with them. Irene is just a normal person..

"Irene! Irene! Please give us an autograph.."
"Irene!"

"Okay! okay! Everyone out!" Dahyun said pushing all the customers out of her shop's door

"okay! Hey Irene! Looks like you'll run me out of business yet again.." Dahyun joked.
"Sorry Dahyun.."

Of course, Irene knows Dahyun, and definitely knows ICEY! Yeap! I  can never get passed around her now.. I would be fine.. Only if you are  not Bambam's freaking best friend..

"You know Irene, There is such a thing called.. Covering up your face?" Nayeon laughed

"Nice to see you again Nayeon." Irene laughed

"Hey Chaeyoung!" Nayeon waved at her
"Hey Nayeon- this is Mina. A new friend of ours."

Chaeyoung introduced me to Nayeon, who I already know by the way. A  solo artist under JYP, about to hit her first world tour soon. And her  songs are amazing! yes, Another artist!

Meeting this much artist in my life makes me feel bad about myself of  not pursuing the Entertainment gig! At least, Chaeyoung and I are  normal! Everyone else are just born to be an Entertainer.. Oh wait..
Chaeyoung is a painter.. great, okay, so am I the only one born to be down in the dumps?!

"Hi Mina, Nice to meet you" Nayeon smiled at me
"Nice to meet you too!" I chuckled
"Wow, you seemed to be such a normal person to talk to.."
"well, I got you famous celebrities around my life now, and I know how it feels to be normal once in while" I winked
"perfect! i love you already!" She hugged me..

Even tho in all honesty, I am fan girling right now! IM NAYEON IS HUGGING ME!!! HOLY !!! I mean.. Ahem.. yeah.

We began walking to the corner to find Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Tzuyu and Jeong..yeon?
"Hey Mina!" Sana waved and the others smiled

Weird atmosphere in here..
"Hey, are you guys okay?" i chuckled, Tzuyu and Jihyo dropped their heads and gave a thumbs up

"Hi.. Jeongye-"

"Jeongyeon?.." Irene said from behind me.

Irene called him, but he did not answer. He remained in position with his eyes closed. Is he sleeping?

"Jeongyeon.... I missed you.."

Aww she missed him... ..... eh. .....  WAIT!!! WHAT?!
