18th August 2017, Friday

Days has passed by and Min-ji and Ji-yoo is in Jungwoo's car and Jungwoo is driving. They are driving to a fancy restaurant cause they wanted to celebrate something with Jungwoo and the other members in Jungwoo's group. They won 3 grand prizes yesterday and a total of 10 prizes just in a day. They decided to celebrate it since it was a big achievement for them so today they decided to have a dinner party at a fancy restaurant. Daehan, Aera, Min-ji, and Ji-yoo were invited cause they were also good friends with both Jungwoo and the other group members. Aerum found out about that since she has friends who are working as staff members in the same company where Jungwoo was working and she decided to act like she just went there to have dinner alone and wanted to have dinner with Jungwoo and the other members. Little does she know that Min-ji was coming.

Aerum was waiting in the restaurant where Jungwoo was suppose to be. She waited for a little while and Jungwoo came with all the members and a couple of people that Jungwoo hasn't introduced them to her. She got her purse and ran to Jungwoo when suddenly she stops cause she found Min-ji and Ji-yoo with Jungwoo and the others. Her smile turned into a frown but she decided to make this as an opportunity to make Min-ji jealous. Min-ji actually knew something was up with Aerum cause she kept on acting mean to her and that actually annoyed Min-ji but she just stayed calm anf taught that Aerum just had a bad day. She got used to this cause Aerum was always with Jungwoo when she wanted to spend time with Jungwoo. Ji-yoo just spent time with Jungwoo as always even though there was Aerum and Aerum started to get annoyed about that. Especially cause she doesn't really like children. While Jungwoo, the blind one didn't noticed at all.

"Hi Jungwoo" Aerum said. "Oh, hi Aerum." Jungwoo said. Min-ji and Ji-yoo looked at Jungwoo and Aerum. "We're just going to follow the others, later you can catch up with us okay" Min-ji whispered to Jungwoo. "Okay" Jungwoo whispered back and Min-ji was holding Ji-yoo's hand and left Jungwoo alone with Aerum. "What are you doing here?" Aerum asked after Min-ji and Ji-yoo left. "I was about to have a dinner part with the others since i won 10 prizes yesterday. You?" Jungwoo said. "I was just going to have dinner on my own but then i saw you so i taught that maybe i could say hi to my friend." Aerum said. "Oh okay then" Jungwoo said while nodding. "But, can i join you and the others?" Aerum asked. "Um...okay then." Jungwoo said who wasn't suspicious at all. Aerum smiled and gladly followed Jungwoo to his table. "Jungwoo you sit next to Min-ji and Aerum you sit next to Daehan and Aera" Hyun-woo said who knew that Aerum was going to join them. Jungwoo nodded and sit where he was suppose to sit while Aerum was a bit mad and annoyed that she had to sit across Jungwoo. Aerum sat on her seat and Aera who was sitting next to her didn't believe what she was seeing. "Aerum?" Aera said. "Oh, Aera hi" Aerum said with a smile on her face. "We haven't seen you in ages." Aera said. "Hahaha, yea, i know" Aerum said. "How have you been doing?" Aera asked. "I've been fine so far. I'm working as a staff member for another boy band" Aerum said. "Oh... what staff member?" Aera asked. "Makeup staff member" Aerum said. "Oh..." Aera said while nodding slowly. "How about you?" Aerum asked. "I'm working at Daehan's office. Since he's a lonely child and his father retired, he owns the office" Aera said. "You're married with him?" Aerum asked who was looking at Aera's weeding ring. "Yea, how's you know?" Aera asked. "Oh, it was just a lucky guess. You were wearing a weeding ring and i just taught that you were married to Daehan since many people shipped you and him" Aerum said. "Oh.." Aera said while nodding slowly.

Time passed by and everyone already ordered what they wanted to eat and drink. The appetizers came and Ji-yoo was hungry so he ate some of the appetizers. "Mommy, when is our drinks and food going to come?" Ji-yoo asked. "Um... it's going to come in a while honey. Just be patient" Min-ji said. "But i'm hungry" Ji-yoo whined and Min-ji just took a deep breath then smiled at Ji-yoo. "You want to play a game with me?" Min-ji asked. "Yea! Sure!" Ji-yoo said excitingly making Min-ji who was sitting in the middle of Jungwoo and Ji-yoo laugh and Jungwoo who was sitting beside Min-ji laughed a bit at Ji-yoo who's acting so cute. They started to play a game and Min-ji kept on losing on purpose to make Ji-yoo happy and Min-ji kept on joking around with Ji-yoo making him laugh a lot and Jungwoo who was seeing them play laughed to. Aerum who was sitting across them got jealous and stared at them for a quite long time. "Hey, is Min-ji and Jungwoo always that close?" Aerum asked to Daehan and Aera. "Yea, they've been close like this from the very beginning" Aera said. "But i really ship them" Daehan said. "They really look like a happy couple but they're just friends which makes me a bit frustrated." Daehan said and Aera nodded agreeing to what Daehan said. "So they like each other?" Aerum asked who was trying to keep her anger inside. "Well if it's Jungwoo, we don't really know but if it's Min-ji, well to sum it up she does have feelings for him" Aera said. "Hah... but we don't know when they will realize that" Aera said who sighed a bit. Aerum felt like she was about to blow up so she excuse herself to the bathroom to let out all her anger. "Hey, did you see how she looked at you?" Ji-ho asked who was sitting beside Jungwoo. "Hmm?" Jungwoo asked. "She was staring at you the whole time you were looking at Min-ji and laughing at her." Ji-ho said. "Maybe she's just in a bad mood." Jungwoo said. "Maybe, but i don't know much" Ji-ho said while patting Jungwoo's shoulders. Jungwoo just shrugged it off thinking that his beloved members were joking with him as always.

"Ch-! I can't believe her! She's really trying to make me mad huh?!" Aerum said after getting out of the bathroom. "Let's just see who wins the fight" Aerum said who formed a mean smirk on her face. Aerum calmed herself down then walked to the table where everyone was sitting then she saw that the waitress came to bring their drinks and she used that as an opportunity to destroy Min-ji's night since the waitress was standing behind Min-ji handing drinks to everyone. She walks confidently and she 'accidently' bumped into the waitress making all the drinks fall and spill to Min-ji who was in front of the waiters. Everyone gasped and looked at Min-ji. She was covered with sticky drinks from head to toe. "Sorry, i didn't mean to bump into you." Aerum said acting so 'innocently'. Min-ji was about to have enough of her but she just took a deep breath then smiled calmly at Aerum. "It's okay, mistakes happen" Min-ji said which made Aerum more mad at her. "I'm sorry mam, we'll bring you new drinks in a while. I'm very sorry." the waitress said apologizing to Min-ji several times. "It's okay, i have a spear dress in my backpack that i brought for my son" Min-ji said. The waitress nodded then left their table in embarrassment. "It's my fault. Let me help you" Aerum said walking to Min-ji and tries to help her. Min-ji took the backpack and walked away to the bathroom with Aerum to clean herself up. Jungwoo helped Min-ji by cleaning her seat and table with wet wipes and the janitor came to clean the floor. "Where's mommy going?" Ji-yoo asked. "She's going to the bathroom to clean up. Don't worry she'll be back in a while." Jungwoo said trying to make Ji-yoo calm down.

"Oh god, this is so sticky. How am i suppose to clean everything?" Min-ji said while siping her face with a tissue. Aerum who wasn't patient to Min-ji pushed her to the wall makin Min-ji cornered and can't escape from Aerum. "Listen missy, Jungwoo is mine. He'll be mine forever. You know yourself that i'm way better then you and you have no chance to win Jungwoo" Aerum said while smirking at Min-ji. "What the hell do you mean Aerum?!" Min-ji said. "Don't act stupid! You know yourself that you like him!" Aerum said and Min-ji just stayed silence cause she knows that Aerum is right. "This is just the beginning. If you don't want more things to happen to you this night and for the other days, then you better back off and give up." Aerum said. "Never" Min-ji said. "Ch-! You really want to fight with me right now?!" Aerum asked. "I know Jungwoo, he'll pick me over you!" Min-ji said. "Say that to our high school years where he betrayed you" Aerum said and Min-ji just stayed silence keeping her tears in. Aerum looked head to toe at Min-ji and laughed. "You look like a mess" Aerum said then left Min-ji alone at the bathroom. Suddenly, the waitress who spilled the drinks at Min-ji entered the bathroom with make up, a hair dryer, and wet wipes. "Here, i'm so sorry about last time" the waitress said. "Oh, it's okay. You did nothing wrong. It was an accident anyways." Min-ji said to the waitress. The waitress put the hair dryer, make up and wet wipes at the bathroom counter then looked at Min-ji. "I heard everything about what the women said." the waitress said and Min-ji just looked down to the floor. "Hey, giving you some advice from someone who've been through the same experience like you, you're way better then that women. You're prettier, nicer, and you have a son which is really cool. Believe in yourself and don't let that women make you down okay" the waitress said. Min-ji nodded and smiled at the waitress. "Thanks." Min-ji said. The waitress smiled back and nodded. "No problem. I'll see you around" the waitress said and left Min-ji in the bathroom.

"Where's Min-ji?" Jungwoo asked right away. "Um.. she said that she'll handle everything on her own and didn't need my help." Aerum said. "Fine, i'll help her." Jungwoo said walkign away from the table and Aerum grabbed his hand. "She's in the girls bathroom" Aerum said. "It's okay" Jungwoo said and he ran to the bathroom making Aerum a bit annoyed and mad at Jungwoo. She sat at her seat again then rolled her eyes since she was so annoyed. "Hey, what you did there to Min-ji was not cool." Aera said. "It was an accident okay" Aerum said. "You're really playing dumb with us right now?!" Aera said who got a bit mad at Aerum. "We perfectly saw that you did that on purpose. What gives?" Aera asked. "It's none of your business so leave me alone!" Aerum said and Aera just rolled her eyes in disbelieve. Jungwoo got in the bathroom and saw Min-ji who was crying. "Hey what's wrong?" Jungwoo said. Min-ji looked at Jungwoo then wiped her tears. "It's nothing. I'm just in a bad mood right now" Min-ji said. "Hey, it's okay. I'll help you fix all of this" Jungwoo said. Min-ji smiled then nodded. After a while she realized that Jungwoo was in the girls bathroom. "You're in the girls bathroom!" Min-ji said. "It's okay. No one is in the bathroom anyways." Jungwoo said then Min-ji finally calmed down.
