Adore You

Chapter 20

Third person's POV

The 4th day of the cold treatment, to Mina's surprise, Chaeyoung shows up at lunch with everyone. Eventhough Chaeyoung doesn't sit next to her, doesn't talk or look at her, but Chaeyoung being there gives Mina some hope. The whole table is in silence because everyone is glancing at everyone, not sure how to help their two friends to reconcile.

'Mina and I will go order some foods. Do you guys want anything?' Sana breaks the ice,

Take the chance, Mina gathers all her courage to ask Chaeyoung 'Chaeyoung...gie, do you want something to e...'

'Sana unnie, could you get me a chicken teriyaki bento box please?' Chaeyoung quickly tells Sana what she wants before Mina finishes her sentence, so she can avoid answering Mina's question.

Mina looks down, feeling dejected.

Coming back to the table, Mina puts a strawberry milk bottle in front of Chaeyoung cause she knows Chaeyoung likes it a lot, but Chaeyoung only glances at it then ignores it as well,

'I'm going back to class now. See you all around!' Chaeyoung leaves after eating just a few bites of her food and left the strawberry milk untouched.

Mina's eyes follow Chaeyoung until she's out of sight. She sighs deeply, eyes get teary, not eating any of her food,

'Mina, at least eat something, you look like you're going to faint anytime soon.' Nayeon tells her,

'I don't feel like eating, Nayeon. I'm going home now, I can't concentrate today.' Mina stands up and leaves.

At this point, Mina has completely lost her appetite. She barely eating, barely sleeps at night. In only 4 days but her body has turned so thin.

'Isn't Chaeyoung a bit too much?' Momo frustratedly says,

'Seems like she got hurt badly.' Jungyeon says,

'But the cold treatment she's giving Mina has been going on for 4 days already.' Sana joins in,

'It's because Chae cares for Mina unnie too much, that's why she gets extra disappointed when she thinks that Mina unnie doesn't trust her' Tzuyu totally understands her friend,

'If this keeps going, I'm worried Mina can't take it anymore. We gotta do something.' Nayeon worriedly says,

They all nod at her, but still not sure what to do.

End of the day at the university, Chaeyoung and Dahyun are the only ones left in their art class, still working hard on their paintings.

The door suddenly swung open, Nayeon, Momo and Sana walk in with their sleeves all rolled up, ready to throw hands,

'Unnies, what are you three doing here?' Dahyun asks, not sure what is going on,

'You stay out of this, Dahyun. We need to have some serious talk with Chaeyoung.' Momo tells her,

First time ever to hear a serious tone from Momo, Dahyun gulps, quietly sits back down, a little nervous.

The three then walk to Chaeyoung, trying to look as intimidating as they can,

Chaeyoung chuckles a little at her three unnies who normally act like children, trying so hard to make themselves look scary right now, 'Yes, unnies, what do you want to talk about?' Chaeyoung asks,

'You, Son Chaeyoung, how long are you planning to ignore our Mina?' Sana goes straight to the point,

'Don't you care about her anymore, Chaeyoung? Momo asks,
