2.4

the two youngest of the group happily clapped their hands when eunha got her wallet out to pay for the ice cream

correction: jungwoo's wallet.

"how did you even steal his wallet, noona?" jisung asked, eating a spoonful of his chocolate flavored ice cream
"he left it on the kitchen counter this morning and i seized the opportunity" she shrugged, eating her own ice-cream

"thank you and rip jungwoo hyung's money" chenle said and joined his hands, closing his eyes as if he was praying

"noona, what do you think of minsu?" jisung asked and eunha raised her eyebrows with a lazy grin plastered on her face
"you're younger than her too, you know. use your honorifics"

"yeah, but we don't like her. anyways, be honest with us. what do you think of her?" chenle pushed the subject making the female sigh
"i don't know.. she makes renjun happy. i guess that's what matters"
"don't you get like a bad vibe from her?"
"like what? like she does black magic or something?" the girl snorted at her own joke, finding it hilarious

the younger boys were not convinced and they exchanged glances before sighing and looking around the ice cream parlor
"hey, guys, isn't that minsu?" chenle nudged jisung who was sitting beside him and eunha calmed herself down fron her laughter

"damn, minsu out to eat bingsu" she said, snorting again and this time the younger ones joined
"okay, that was a little funny"

the trio calmed themselves down and decided to watch minsu and a friend she was with ordering their ice cream and sitting down on the table behind eunha. fortunately, minsu hadn't noticed the three as she was too busy talking to her friend

cnehle created a new group chat!
cnehle added andy pwark!
cnehle added you!

cnehle named the group
"the three musketeers"

cnehle
let's eavesdrop on minsu
she seems sus af right now

okay but why
aren't we talking?

cnehle
so she doesn't recognize us!

"hey, have you completed your dare yet?" minsu's friend said and the trio heard it loud and clear
minsu sighed, "i.. kind of? i accepted his confession.. we went out on a few dates.. i don't know, hyemin. i feel bad for him he's a really good guy and i can tell he likes me genuinely and stuff"

the three musketeers

andy pwark
okay what the heck

guys
omg is this the
bad vibe you were talking
about?

cnehle
apparently..

"remember, it's for one month" hyemin said
"yeah..but i just.. feel bad"
"it's a coincidence it was huang renjun.. i mean doesn't he hang out with that other girl.. what's her name?"
"eunha?"
"yeah, her. at least when you tell him he was a dare, he has someone to comfort him and all i guess"
minsu shrugged, "i don't know, hyemin.. can we talk about something else?"

whereas, on the other table chenle, jisung and eunha looked at each other wide-eyed at the whole conversation

the three musketeers

cnehle
so minsu was dared to
accept renjun hyung's
confession?

no shit Sherlock
ffs i wanna strangle her

andy pwark
i feel bad for hyung..

istg how dare
she accept the dare.
if that girl had a little sense
inside that tiny brain, she
would've rejected
the dare and would've
rejected jun's confession

cnehle
wouldn't that hurt him
either way tho?

yeah but
it hurts more when
the person you like
leads you on and then
afterwards tells
you, you meant
nothing to them
rather than getting
rejected by your crush

andy pwark
agreed

cnehle
so.. do we tell hyung?

➪

"this stays between us" eunha said to the younger boys
"but.. noona, shouldn't hyung know?" jisung asked and she sighed as the three stopped in front of eunha's house

the sun was waving goodbye to the city of Seoul as it set, creating a beautiful ombre of colors in the sky as the moon followed and waved a hello, welcoming the dark and cold night sky with it.

"i think it's better if he finds out himself. i haven't seen him this happy, ever. i.. can't just ruin his happiness like that.. it's.. i don't know, i just feel like we're interfering with their relationship.. they should work it out themselves, right?"

chenle hummed and put a hand on eunha's shoulder as a sign of comfort, "its okay, noona. he'll come to his senses soon and the next thing you know, you and renjun hyung would be the college's it couple"

eunha chuckled at chenle and playfully rolled her eyes, "do you guys wanna stay for dinner?"

"sure, let me just tell my mum before she freaks out"
