F o u r t e e n : Unexpected Changes and Poetic Moments

“Yah~ Today was unexpectedly fun!”

Yoona muttered as she walks with Luhan towards their company.

“I know~ It was fun for me too!”

“You have a practice right?”

“Yeah, how do you know?”

“Well, Minseok-oppa told me~”

“Oh…”

An uncomfortable silence envelops them again. Luhan indeed feels a pang on his chest at the mention of his older member’s name. Luhan being the typical Luhan, just ignore that pain and flash a smile at Yoona.

“Yah~ Why are you smiling?”

“What? I can’t smile?”

“No, it’s just that it’s weird~”

“What? Don’t you like this handsome smiling face?” Luhan jokingly make a gesture showing his handsome.

“Yah~ I’m more handsome than you if I’m in this get-up!” Yoona smirk at Luhan in response.

“Oh~ Quite confidence, YoonBum-sshi~”

“Of course~ I’m the handsome YoonBum!” Yoona laughs along Luhan again.

“Umm… Will we be speaking informally in front of the other people too?”

“Of course! But, if you don’t want to… We can just speak informally in between us only~”

“Really?”

“Yeah, but why you don’t want to speak informally in front of the others with me?”

“Because I’m shy…”

“Shy? As in embarrassed? Why?”

“… I don’t know…”

“Oh….”

Another air of awkwardness and silence came again in between the two after they stop talking. However, it feels different this time. They shared a comfortable moment of silence in between them as they enjoy the view before they reach their company.

“We’re here!” Yoona happily smile as they walk into the empty practice room.

“Huh, are we early?”

“I guess we are… Let’s just wait for them.”

“Don’t you have any schedule after this?”

“Nope~ I’m free! Plus, I’m eager to see their reaction of YoonBum!” Yoona posed manly as both of them stare into the mirrors.

“Oh~ I look handsome~”

“Yah~ I’m more handsome that you are, Yoona-sshi~”

“Nope, Yoonbum definitely is more charismatic and handsome than cute flower boy Luhan-sshi.” Yoona laughs as she playfully teases Luhan’s cute face.

“Yah~ I’m not cute~” Luhan unconsciously pout as Yoona just laugh at him.

“Look, who’s cute now? Pouty Prince?”

Luhan playfully glares at Yoona and laugh together after that.

“Hyung, who’s that? A new trainee?”

Chen’s voice alert the two as they smile evilly before turning their bodies around to look at the EXO members that just arrived.

“Yes, my name is Im Yoonbum! Nice to meet you, sunbaenims!” Yoona bows 90 degrees respectfully before EXO could register her looks in their mind.

“Oh, nice to meet you, Yoonbum-sshi! Welcome to our company…”

Yoona immediately let out a hearfelt chuckle as they look at her in confusion.

“Yah! It’s me, Yoona!”

“Mwuh?”

“Why are you wearing that, Yoona ah?”

“To hide from the fans when I went out with Minseok this morning.” Yoona smirks boyishly.

“Woah, we almost could not recognize you…”

“Kekeke~ Is it because I’m too handsome?” Yoona smirks as Luhan just laugh.

“Yah, Yoona~ Stop it~”

“But, it’s fun Luhan ah~”

“Yoona? Luhan?” Kris ask with a shocked face.

“Since when the two of you become closer?” Suho ask with an amused tone.

“You two call each other without formalities~ Whoa~” Chen feel amaze.

“Huh, we did?” Both of them said in unison.

“Omo~ You even speak at the same time!”

“Uh—huh…” Both Yoona and Luhan stare at each other bef
