"You have functioning ears, I recall." Jennie said with sarcasm, giving Yoona a sickening smile. "And you're not retarded, so there's no way you didn't understand what I said."

Yoona clicked her tongue, refraining herself from strangling the girl from the attitude she's showing. 

Ignoring the lustful gaze from Jennie, Yoona refrained from losing her cool. "You know," Yoona began, her frustration evident. "Your attitude right now is making me want to choke you."

"What's stopping you?" 

Their eyes locked, an intense energy passing between them. Jennie held Yoona's gaze firmly, yet her smile remained. As moments passed, Yoona couldn't help but chuckle, amused by the peculiar situation. "Jennie, what are we doing?" she asked, her voice tinged with laughter.

Jennie, usually confident and charismatic, couldn't hide her annoyance at Yoona's nonchalant response. Her eyebrows furrowed, revealing a mix of frustration and longing. "You think this is a joke? You don't take anything seriously." Jennie retorted, her tone playful yet serious.

Yoona's laughter subsided, replaced by a contemplative look. She searched Jennie's eyes, trying to decipher the meaning behind their banter. "What do you want, then?"

Having this kind of conversation with this woman is making me go thirsty all of a sudden. , I shouldn't feel this way. 

Jennie's lips curved into a sly smile, mischief dancing in her eyes. "I want to be your sugar mama, as I said, or maybe something more." she confessed, her words hanging in the air with a daring proposition.

Jennie Kim must be tripping right now, better yet, she's actually TRIPPING. What in the world does she know what she's talking about right now.

Yoona's heart skipped a beat, caught off guard by Jennie's bold statement. She was momentarily lost for words, her mind racing to process the weight of the confession. Before she could respond, Chaeyoung appeared out of nowhere, her eyes filled with concern.

"What took you two so long?" Chaeyoung asked, her voice laced with worry and subtle hints of her feelings for Yoona, sensing the charged atmosphere between them. "Is everything okay? Everyone was wondering where you two went."

Yoona quickly composed herself, offering Chaeyoung a warm smile to dismiss any unease.

Beneath the surface, Jennie simmered with annoyance, discreetly observing the interaction and longing for Yoona's response, but concealing her impatience. As Chaeyoung voiced concern, Jennie's eyes met Yoona's, silently urging her to be honest.

Yoona, aware of Jennie's anticipation and Chaeyoung's emotions, smoothly deflected the tension with a charming smile. "Oh, don't worry, Rosie." she playfully reassured. "Jennie and I were just caught up in our little game. You know how competitive we can get."

Chaeyoung's brows furrowed, sensing more to the story than Yoona revealed. Her eyes darted between Yoona and Jennie, curiosity evident. However, she chose not to press further, realizing some matters were better left untouched.

Jennie, relieved by Yoona's quick save, relaxed a little, chuckling lightly. "Yeah, it's all good. Just a silly moment between us." she added, downplaying the intensity.

"Alright ladies, as much as I love the idea of a with us, let's head out before our friends come back and drag me outside."

Both Jennie and Chaeyoung blushed at Yoona's remark but understanding the underlying message. They knew all too well the chaos that could ensue if their friends caught wind of the tension in the air.

Yoona flashed a warm smile, gesturing for Chaeyoung and Jennie to go ahead of her. "After you," she said playfully, her eyes lingering on Jennie who reciprocated the gesture with a knowing smile.

Just as Yoona was about to follow them, Jennie leaned in, her voice barely a whisper, sending shivers down Yoona's spine. "Let me show you a world beyond imagination." 

Yoona bit her lip, surprised and delighted by Jennie's words.

"Think about it, hun. The possibilities are endless." With a tantalizing smirk, she turned and walked away, leaving Yoona standing there, her mind spinning with thoughts and emotions.

"I wonder if she's taking any drugs. There's no way Jennie Kim would want to be my sugar mama." Yoona mumbled, her eyes fixed on Jennie's figure. "She's on to something."

In the cozy Seoul Eats restaurant, Yoona, Jennie, and their friends enjoyed grilled meat, samgyupsal. The traditional Korean atmosphere featured vintage posters and artwork on wooden-accented walls, complemented by soft music. At the center of each table was a grilling station, where they cooked their marinated meats, while the staff in traditional Korean clothing provided attentive service.

Outside the restaurant, Yoona leaned against the wall, pretending it was her mother on the phone to avoid teasing, especially from Jennie, who had given her a side-eyed glance earlier.

"Well, well, well, Mrs. Kim. To what do I owe the pleasure of your call today?"

"Mrs. Kim? Babe, you're a few years too late on that one. I shed that title along with my ex-husband."

Her piercing gaze scanned the bustling street, a mischievous smile playing on her lips.

"My apologies, Jessica. Some habits die hard. But you'll always be a queen in my book."

Spending time with Jessica made Yoona learn more about the woman. She slept with older women before, but Jessica was currently one of the most interesting. 

"Flattery will get you everywhere, won't it? Though I must say, I enjoy being the subject of your playful banter. It's refreshing."

The night air enveloped Yoona, carrying a hint of excitement and a touch of mischief. She exuded an aura of magnetism, effortlessly drawing the eyes of those around her. Her relaxed yet commanding stance sent a ripple of curiosity through onlookers.

"Well, someone's got to keep you on your toes, Ice Princess. Can't have you getting too comfortable now, can we?"

"Touché, my dear. But don't forget, even the Ice Princess has a warm side. You're the lucky one who gets to witness it up close and personal."

She tilted her head, running fingers through her hair, effortlessly maintaining confidence.

"Oh, I consider myself extremely fortunate, Jessica. To have a sugar mama as sassy and clingy as you, it's a rare gem."

"Clingy? I prefer the term 'affectionate'. And let's not forget, you're the one who can't resist my charms. I must be doing something right."

Yoona chuckled, knowing Jessica was right.

"Anyway, the reason I called is that I'm hosting my own party for another fashion event, and I'd be in glee if you'd be there."

Yoona hesitated, a fashion show meant public attention. Is she ready to be seen with Jessica in front of so many people close to the latter?

"No pressure, okay? I was just reminding you early so you'll have time to think about it."

Yoona bit her lip, contemplating her decision. "When will it be held?"

"Next Sunday. I know you probably won't come, but I still want to convince you."

"Right, and you'll be busy with preparations next week." Yoona had already decided not to attend. "I'll give you an answer before the event. I have to go; they're already calling me inside."

"Yeah, we won't see each other for a while, but we'll communicate through the phone. I'm hoping you'll decide to come and be my other half. Have a good night, honey."

"You too Jessica."

After the call, a whirlwind of thoughts cascaded through Yoona's mind. Her family's reputation loomed large, reminding her of potential consequences if news of her involvement with Jessica surfaced. The media's prying eyes could subject her to scrutiny and judgment from her parents, who could be cruel if she didn't behave appropriately. 

The thought of bumping into Jessica's friends and acquaintances at the event further deepened Yoona's reservations. As she mentioned before, Jessica's friends are unnecessary to her and she had no desire to meet them.

In Yoona's mind, Jessica was simply a woman who fulfilled her needs, no strings attached. She had consciously kept their relationship devoid of emotional entanglements. Risking it all for Jessica wasn't a price she was willing to pay.

After contemplating outside, Yoona returned to the restaurant and found her friends smirking at her, eyeing her like she had done something scandalous.

"There's no way it is your mother you were talking to Yoong, you don't took long enough talking to her before." Jisoo spoke while drinking her beer.

They knew her well enough to realize that long phone conversations were a rarity, especially with her mother.

Chaeyoung, Nayeon, Sana, and Irene were pretty much just watching their banter with amusement. It wasn't new to them to see this kind of scenario from them.

Momo cheered and nodded, urging Yoona to spill the beans. "Come on bro, was it one of your girls?" she playfully prodded.

Yoona grinned and shook her head, playing along. "No, no, it was really my mom this time." she said, rolling her eyes.

"If you know Yoona Lim, any words she said are all lies!" Dahyun interjected, earning laughs from all of them and an eye-roll from Yoona and Jennie.

"If there would be a genius record for the best liar, our dearest Yoong is the winner." Seulgi butted in, finding it hilarious to team up with her friends against Yoona. "Right, Lis?"

Everyone looked at Lisa, who let out an awkward laugh as Yoona stared at her with a challenging smirk. "What? No, that's a lie. You all know better that our dearest Yoong here is more capable than that."

Yoona shook her head, realizing her friends were teaming up against her. It usually happened whenever they hung out outside school with others, and she was used to it, especially knowing some of her friends wanted to boast to get attention from the ones they liked. Seulgi with Irene, Dahyun with Sana, and Momo with Nayeon.

As Yoona settled back into her seat, ready to join the rest of her friends between Lisa and Jisoo, she felt a sudden jolt of surprise. To her bewilderment, Jennie and Chaeyoung had taken the seats beside her, displacing Lisa and Jisoo.

What in the world.

Her[Y] brow furrowed in confusion, but before she could question her friends, Yoona looked at Jennie, who returned her seductive gaze with a smirk, sending a shiver down her spine.

At her other side, Chaeyoung wore a sweet and charming smile that made Yoona's heart skip a beat. The combination of seduction and sweetness left her head spinning and she couldn't help but wonder how she ended up between these two captivating women. 

Turning her attention to her friends, Yoona found them avoiding her gaze, and it suddenly clicked. They had planned this all along, orchestrating this intriguing scenario with Jennie and Chaeyoung sitting beside her. 

They're dead.

Throughout Yoona's life, she had never experienced a moment quite like this—finding herself in an unfamiliar and somewhat embarrassing situation, caught in the spotlight with all eyes on her. While she enjoyed being the center of attention on her own terms, being sandwiched between Jennie and Chaeyoung was not exactly the attention she had in mind at the moment.

"How's working at Chaeng's Cafe, Yoona?" Sana asked, seeking a reaction from her[Y], a gesture noticed by Irene and Jennie. "Chaeng's been gushing about how her profit increased since you started there." 

Yoona nodded, relieved that she had contributed significantly to her job. "There are no words to express how thankful I am to be working at your Cafe, Rosie. You've been a lifesaver." She flashed a grateful smile at the blond, who shyly smiled back.

Their small interaction amused everyone, except for Jennie, who rolled her eyes. Irene noticed and suppressed her laughter, earning Jennie's glare, which she casually brushed off.

"Why are you giggling?"

Irene shook her head, signaling it was noth
