---Lunch---

You started eating but for some reason your apetite is gone. You punt in the food and sometimes you also take some to eat. But it doesn't taste.

You look at Tao who sits towards you. He eats happily and as he notices your look, he smiles
"The salad is so great...." he says while chewing.
You give him a little smile while you're punting in your salad.
"You don't like it?" he asks.
"Its ok..." you answer.
"Then why you're stabbing in your salad?"
"I don't know. I'm not hungry."
"Oh I see. If you want we can ask the waiter to wrap it so you can eat it later." he says and takes a bite of your salad.
"Hope you don't mind that." he says and you shake your head.

You lean your head against your hand. You look at Soojin. Nate shares his food with her and they seem really happy.
I know that Nate likes her ,but Soojin? What is wrong with her? She never acted like this when she was with Nate.
She always said: Nate is my friend. I don't want more.
And suddenly this?

Tao waves to the waiter.
He walks towards your table.
"What can I do for you?"
"My friend would like to take her salad home so she can eat it later. Can you pack it please?
"Of course." the waiter says and takes your salad.

"Thank you Tao." you say.
"Dani..you should really talk with Soojin about it. You both don't eat and also don't talk much since you told them about the new situation."
"I know..."

---At the car---

You open the car and jump inside. Tao sits next to you.
Soojin also jumps into the car.
She waves to Nate who still stands at the restaurant entry.
"We can go." she says.
"What's with Nate?" you ask.
"He needs to get something."
"Oh I see. And what we do now?" you ask.
"Dani..can you drive me to the Coex Mall in Gangnam?" she asks.
"Oh that's a great idea, Soojin! Let's go shopping!" Tao yells.
"Yes that would be really great. Can we join you Soojin?" you ask.
"Actually....well ok."

---At COEX Mall, Gangnam-gu---

"uh...Guys? I will go to the book store...you can do whatever you want." Soojin says and walks away.
"Ok where do you want to go first?" Tao asks.
"I once visited this mall but I didn't got the chance to visit the big aquarium."
"Oh you need to see it! Let's buy some drinks and then we visit it!"

---First stop : McDonald's---

You and Tao wait in the waiting line.
"What do you want?" he asks.
"Milk shake please."
"Ok I will pay."
"No this time I will pay! You already payed."
"mh then....if you want to pay.." he says and walks some steps away.

You notice how girls start whispering and pointing at you and Tao.
You can clearly understand a conervsation next to you.
"They're SM trainees....." one girl whispers.
Another one whispers.
"Maybe he is the one from the new group SM will reveal soon...."

"Hello?"
You turn around. Because of all the girls you forgot that it was your turn to order.
"Do you want something or do you just want to stand around here?" the girl at the counter says snobbish.
"2 milk shakes please."
"Flavour?"
"One chocolate and one with strawberry, please." you answer.

"What do you think ...is she his girlfriend?"
"Are trainees allowed to date?"
Everywhere girls whipser and point at you. You feel not well.

"2,000 KRW PLEASE!" the girl yells.
"Are you deaf or what?!" she yells.
"ehh I'm sorry..." you take your wallet out.
"here.." you hand her the 2,000 won.
"Thank you...here are your milk shakes." she hands them to you.

"Why did you take so long?" Tao asks.
"I will tell you in the aquarium." you say.
