2. Confiding in a friend     "How was the recording?" Tiffany asked, barely audible. She had missed another recording of their variety show, 'Hello Baby', as she was still recovering from surgery.      "Tiring..Kyungsan is so much active now." Jessica whines, punching the back of her shoulder gently, massaging it as she slumped her body on the couch, across Tiffany.      Sooyoung, Seohyun, Sunny and Taeyeon approached the couch, gathering at where Tiffany and Jessica was seated.      "How's your throat?" Taeyeon asked, her face painted with concern as she took a seat next to Tiffany      "Ok.." Tiffany mouthed it to her, showing taeyeon a thumb up.      "Ok, don't talk too much and strain it further then. Eaten your meds?"      Tiffany nodded.      "Then go and sleep. We have dance practice tomorrow." Taeyeon stood up, wanting to pull Tiffany up but Tiffany sat firm in her position.        "Wae?" Taeyeon asked as she sat back down.      Tiffany shook her head and pointed to the TV, gesturing to taeyeon that she wanted to watch TV awhile more.        Taeyeon understood. As much as she wanted to let Tiffany have her ways, she doesn't want to let her member think that she is favoring Tiffany. "There's nothing to watch anyway. Go to sleep, I don't want any of us to be tired tomorrow.  It will be a long day. "      "Let her be taengoo. She have too much rest these days anyway." Jessica voiced out      "Ok, whatever then." Taeyeon said nonchalantly     argh.. Why are you so stubborn fany? I don't want you to be tired tomorrow and I hate to see you sick. Why won't you listen to me? Taeyeon thought to herself as she cracked each of her fingers absentmindedly, suppressing her emotions in.     "Alright guys, I'm gonna hit the sack." Sooyoung said, disrupting taeyeon's thought.      "Yeah, me too. " Jessica echoed after Sooyoung      "I shall too. Goodnight unnie." Seohyun bowed towards Sunny and taeyeon before walking to her room.     "Shall we, taengoo?" Sunny who is sharing a room with taeyeon asked her roommate who was already sitting at the couch restlessly.      "... " taeyeon didn't reply. She wanted to accompany Tiffany in the living room but she doesn't know how to decline Sunny's offer without being too obvious.      "Come on. Let's go to the room. I've something to talk to you." Sunny pulled taeyeon up, dragging taeyeon along when she saw taeyeon hesitating to answer.      Tiffany looked at the two shorties disappearing into their room before inhaling sharply.      You don't care about me like you used too anymore taetae. You used to nag at me until I do your bidding. Or you would at least accompany me and never let me sit out alone even if you're tired. But yet now... She sighed.        **********     "What is it that you want to talk about?" Taeyeon asked once the both of them are done showering.        "Well, you know I'm not one who beat around the bush and since we're so already comfortable around each other, I'm just gonna be straightforward here ok. I actually know about you and Tiffany."      Taeyeon turned her heads towards Sunny, widening her eyes before furrowing her brows. "what?!"        "Yes I know. And stop the act. Gosh, You're so bad at acting."      "Know what? Me and Tiffany? And no, I'm not acting. I'm really shocked."        Sunny sighed playfully, "I know you have feelings for that girl , am I right?"        "W-what.. N-no. I don't." Taeyeon stammers nervously        "Don't deny, Kim taeyeon. I've seen the way you look at her, your smile when you're talking to her or when you're with her, the way you care for her everyday especially during her down moment, especially right now when she's nursing a bad sore throat. I've seen it all. "       "That's because it's my responsibility to care for all of you. It's my duty to take care of your health and well-being. She's unwell and feeling down, I should be there for her. Her family isn't here, I just wanna show her my support, telling her that she's not alone in this. "        "Then how about those smiles and look you'll give to her? " sunny smirks when she saw her roommate fidgeting nervously with the hem of her shirt      "W-what look? I smile to the rest of the member too. I look at the rest of the member too. That does not mean I have feelings for them. I smile at you too and I look at you too right now. Why didn't you suspect I have feelings for you? "        "Because the way you smile at me or the way you look at me, it's different from the way you look or smile at her."        "...." Taeyeon was speechless. She have nothing more factors to use to counter against sunny predictions. Sunny was right
