Sometimes Yuqi would be creeped out by how quiet the Yeh household was, The only thing she could hear was the faint noise of Shuhua’s mother humming in the kitchen as she makes dinner for the two girls while her father was locked up in his office, nose buried into his paperwork; Too focused on his work to care for anything else, the few times Yuqi saw him, behind his desk, she couldn’t help but notice how Shuhua looks a lot like him, with that focused look in her eyes when she does anything, always trying to achieve perfection. 

Sometimes Yuqi thinks nothing can ever satisfy Shuhua.

“What are you doing?” She asked as soon as they entered the taiwanese’s room and the younger one made her way to her desk and started to take her notebook out of her backpack, quickly writing something on it. 

"I had some ideas for the play, so I better start working on it" 

"I thought we were going to have fun" Yuqi grabbed her shoulders, trying not to think how she had caught Mrs.Yeh and her husband in this same position when she was younger, back when the woman had to drag him out of his office so he wouldn't miss Shuhua's birthday. "Why don't you take a break?"

Shuhua sighs. "But I-"

"The preparations only began, you don't have a deadline you know?" Yuqi could be loud and crazy at school but in those moments, she had to be the mature one so Shuhua doesn't go overboard. "So no need to hush"

"Fine… Fine, What do you wanna do?" 

"Let's play games" 

"Again?"

"You loved to play games!" Yuqi complained, moving to sit on the bed and Shuhua followed, sitting next to her. "Heck, you even would call me and make me come here to play with you"

"Ah that was before, is boring now"

"Boring she says!" Yuqi complained and Shuhua rolled her eyes while smiling before turning on the console so they both could play.

Meanwhile on the other side of the city there was Soojin, in her pink pajamas with cherry patterns, all comfortable in bed as she texted the girls, legs kicking against the mattress. 

Then she got notified that Miyeon added her to a group chat with Soyeon. 

Miyeon:

Girls.

Soojin: 

What now?

Soyeon:

Ok, clearly is something she doesn't want the other three to know. What is it?

Miyeon:

Minnie has been acting weird.

Soojin:

Why?

She didn't hold your hand for 5 seconds?

Is that the issue?

Soyeon:

AKSHAIJSJAU

Soojin:

How dare you keysmash to my face.

Miyeon:

Girls i'm serious

It's the second time she cancels our dates.

Soyeon: 

what? u think she's like

cheating on u or something

Soojin:

Soyeon 

what the

Miyeon:

I WASN'T UNTIL U SAID THAT

Soyeon:

oops

Soojin:

ok calm down

She's probably tired since that little devil shuhua acts like she owns the basketball team's souls and makes them practice too much. just talk to her

minnies probably exhausted

Miyeon:

Or with another girl :(

Soojin:

Look what u did soyeon

Soyeon:

it was a joke!!! leave me alone

Unnie just

talk to her?? that ain't hard

Miyeon:

Okay, I'll try.

Soojin:

oh so when Soyeon tells u to talk to her you'll do it but when i do it, you ignore me!

Soojin sighs as she hits send, she knows what this was all about, Minnie has been very focused on planning something for their 8th month of dating, but obviously she couldn’t tell Miyeon that and ruin the surprise, but seeing the older being so sad about it was hard as well. So she decided to send someone a text as she ignored the notifications from Miyeon and Soyeon’s texts.

Soojin:

Hey

It’s me

Soojin stared at her screen, waiting for a response that took ages -it was 5 minutes- to come. 

Yeh Shuhua:

Whom??

Soojin:

It’s Soojin,

I need something

Yeh Shuhua:

I already said you’re not my type

‘Just take a deep breath Soojin, don’t let her provoke you like this’ She thought to herself as she tried to ignore the need to curse at the girl and her stupid messages, especially at how she could picture her smirk and the cockiness in her voice as soon as she read the text; Shuhua knew how to annoy her, and Soojin hated how she couldn’t keep it cool once the provocation started. 

Soojin:

Anyways

I need you to give minnie a break

Miyeon wants to spend time with her and she can’t

because of you forcing Minnie to do your work

There was no reply, 5 and then 10 minutes have passed and Soojin couldn’t believe the girl simply decided to ignore her texts like that; and this was their precious maknae, the girl thought annoyed as she started to type something to get her attention but was interrupted by Shuhua’s rep
