"AAAAAAAAA!!!"

A scream echoed around Minjeong's apartment, causing her to turn off the stove and quickly walk toward the living room.

There she saw frightened Ryujin who appeared to be hiding behind Sakura's back at the very corner of the room.

"What the heck happened?"

Sakura gagged, "A moth flew at Ryujin's face."

Ryujin cleared , "My despise for bugs is immeasurable."

Minjeong chuckled, "Where's the moth?"

Ryujin laughed nervously, "I don't think you should approach it."

The brunette rapidly nodded her head in agreement, though not feeling anything Minjeong playfully rolled her eyes and searched the living room only to see the moth that looked unusually big.

When it abruptly flew off, flying around the living room. Minjeong immediately ran toward the corner of the room where her two friends stood, it was unfortunate how the three of them were scared of such size.

It wouldn't be a problem if it was small.

Minjeong smiled stoically, "I don't think any of us are going to catch that thing and release it outside."

"Should we kill it?" Sakura couldn't help but just laugh at the situation.

Ryujin faced the wall, "DO WE HAVE A CHOICE?"

"I'll get the mop and broom," Minjeong carefully ran back toward the kitchen where the things mentioned were placed.

"Give me your biggest pan!" Ryujin yelled.

Minjeong chuckled, "What for?"

"So I could whack it like a tennis ball if it ever flies at my face again."

Sakura burst out in laughter, "Wow, you really are taking precautions huh?"

In a haste, Minjeong grabbed the stuff and distributed it to her two friends. It was also the right timing the moth landed near the apartment's doorstep, that's when Ryujin ran inside the bedroom to snatch a blanket.

"What are you going to do with that?" Sakura furrowed her brows.

"Trap it, then we whack it there."

"But I don't want to do the laundry..." Minjeong mumbled.

"We either kill it now or die later."

With that conclusion, Ryujin stepped on the couch and aimed the blanket toward the moth. The other two girls then positioned themselves, waiting for whatever the heck their friend was about to do.

"YEET!"

Ryujin successfully threw the blanket, trapping the moth under it. From the girl's sudden exclamation, the two friends weren't able to hold themselves but laugh.

"Was that yell necessary?" Sakura covered .

Ryujin shrugged, "I've always wanted to do that."

Minjeong approached the blanket, "Ryujin is beyond our understanding." she crouched down to examine it.

Trading a few laughs, the other two eventually crouched beside Minjeong to secure the bug. That's when the three of them exchanged a few glances, nodding at each other to indicate that they were ready to kill it.

Positioning their "weapons", the three aimed toward the blanket.

They were about to whack it all together, well not until the entrance door suddenly opened. Revealing Minjeong's three closest friends, standing in place while looking at them with confused expressions.

.

The three internet best friends froze in place due to the unexpected company. Unfortunately, the three just had to freeze in a questionable position, causing them except Minjeong to feel deadly embarrassed.

"Did we come at a bad time?" Aeri covered to suppress her laughter.

Ning pointed her thumb outside, "I mean... we can go out if the three of you aren't finished." 

Jimin chuckled, "I feel like we just witnessed a murder or something."

"Welp..." Sakura composed herself and patted Minjeong's shoulder, "You're the most capable to explain everything, I'll be inside your room." she hurriedly stepped inside her friend's bedroom.

Ryujin cleared whilst nodding her head, "Use your alexithymia!" she lightly pushed her friend toward the three figures before trailing Sakura.

Minjeong groaned, "Don't treat it like it's a superpower!"

"Because it is!"

Ryujin's voice echoed through the bedroom's corridor, causing the girl to groan once more.

With the two now out of her sight, Minjeong fixed her gaze on the entrance door and chuckled nervously.

Even though she didn't feel any embarrassment, she was still annoyed at the fact this abrupt situation happened.

This was one of the last things she wanted to happen.

Also, the thought of having more than three people inside her apartment made her grunt in dissatisfaction. This was the first time her home have gotten so crowded, she couldn't help but feel goosebumps.

Ning laid her eyes on the fabric in front of her friend, "Looks like what just happened had something to do with that blanket on the floor."

Jimin approached the blanket with curiosity, "What's with it anyway?"

Aeri followed and grabbed on the blanket, "Well there's only one way to find out!"

Minjeong swiftly stood up from her position to back away as fast as possible, "Wait! Aeri-"

"EEEK!!!"

———————————————

In the end, Jimin caught the bug that happened to be as big as her hand with the use of a mixing bowl and folder. She released it outside the window, then told everyone that it was fine to go out of the bedroom.

That's when Minjeong was about to request everyone to leave so that she could spend her alone time.

However, that idea immediately got overthrown once Aeri suggested that they all watch a movie since it was a good opportunity to get to know each other.

Minjeong's internet friends and real-life friends, the girl never imagined that such an event would happen.

So crowded...

Before Minjeong even realized it, everyone was already seated on her couch comfortably as well as a bunch of snacks placed on her coffee table.

She stood near the kitchen's corridor, back laid against the wall. The girl was admiring the sight that was foreign to her, well this situation did happen to her twice a long time ago.

It was when Ning and Jimin were the only friends she had. Of course, the two never interacted with each other in high school so those movie times had to be spent on each one of them separated.

That thought caused her to unconsciously release a faint smile in wonder at how she suddenly received such good people by her side.

Everything happened so fast, and it all started when she became neighbors with her best friend.

"How peculiar," she mumbled.

About to sink into her thoughts, Jimin suddenly called out the girl's name which made her snap back and turn her gaze on the latter.

Jimin gestured for her best friend to come, patting on the space next to her on the couch in an indication that she should sit down next to her.

With no other choice nor any reason to object, Minjeong approached her best friend and sat down next to her.

"So what movie are we going to watch?" Ning asked.

Ryujin puts a handful of popcorn into , "I'm good with anything."

"Romance?" Aeri suggested.

Minjeong solely nodded her head, "I doubt I'll understand everything but I'm down."

Sakura smirked, "Interested?" she gave the girl a light nudge.

Minjeong slightly tilted her head at the thought, "...Maybe?"

"Then romance it is." Jimin grabbed the remote, "So what to watch?"

Aeri raised her hand, "Orange."

Sakura snapped her fingers, "Oh yeah, that's a good one! Though I never got the chance to finish it."

"Right?" Aeri pointed at the girl in agreement.

Now decided on what movie to watch, Jimin opened Netflix and chose the mentioned movie. Everyone then stopped talking and focused their attention on the tv screen.

...

An hour into the movie, while everyone was so in. Minjeong found herself confused the whole time, not from the storyline. Rather, from the emotions, the characters were feeling.

Because of this, she gradually got bored and released a small yaw
