"Eotteohke? Eotteohke? (What do I do?)" Lily kept walking back and forth in a short distance in front of her friends.
"Yah!! Can you please stop walking. You're making us dizzy!" Mo Hyun said.
She stopped, "What am I going to do?"
Eun Min grabbed her hand and pulled Lily beside her. "I don't see any problem with that!", she handed her some sweet and spicy tteokboki.
"It's a big problem!!!", she felt hysterical. "I don't want to work with him!!!"
"It's going to be so awkward!!!", Mo Hyun thought so.
"Shh!", Eun Min pinched her friend. "Lily, it's not as if he's gonna be alone there with you. Namjoon, Yoongi and Jin are going to be there too, right?"
"O (yes). But.... I don't know if I can focus. I mean, at the party, it was really awkard good thing there was a lot of people. But when I saw him at the restaurant with his wife...."
"You saw him with his wife????" both her friends screamed!
"O."
"Is she really pretty? I saw pictures of her on the internet but there's not so many", Mo Hyun kept talking.
Eun Min looked at her, "Here Mo Hyun, eat this. You're talking too much", she said while putting more tteok in her friend's mouth.
"I've never seen her pictures on the internet. It was my first time seeing her at the restaurant. And she really is so pretty." Lily felt bad.
"Oh chingu! Don't be sad. You're prettier I'm sure. And you should prepare for tomorrow's shoot, okay?"
Lily was about to speak when her phone beeped. She looked at it and read the message.
7:55 PM 준아: 누나 내일 봐요 😊
Joon-a: Noona, see you tomorrow 😊
Lily smiled when she read Namjoon's message. Her friends noticed it and they wondered who could it be.
7:57 PM 리리: 준아 봐요 ☺️
Lily: See you Joon ☺️
Eun Min tried to look at Lily's phone and the latter immediately hid it in her pocket.
"Who's that?", she teasingly asked.
"Oh it's Namjoon."
"Ooohhhh", Eun Min and Mo Hyun said while they looked at each other.
"What's that?"
"So Namjoon still likes you after all", said Eun Min.
"What? No. I don't think so."
"Stop acting like you don't know he feels for you."
"He's just being nice to me. He's one of my best friends."
"He's excited, he even texted you cause he can't wait to see you!" Mo Hyun said.
"How did you know what he said?", Lily jokingly raised her eyebrows at her friend.
Mo Hyun got caught! "Aa--", she doesn't know what to say. "You know what's important is someone wants a second chance, I think."
"I already told you we're just friends ok?"
"Okay! You wanna bet?" Eun Min stood up and placed her hands on her waist.
"Bet on what?"
"I bet you 2 rounds of our favorite chicken and beer that sooner or later, you'll fall in love again and it's gonna be with Namjoon."
She laughed hard. "You're funny! After what Hobi did to me? I don't know."
"So, is that a deal?" Eun Min challenged her friend while Mo Hyun quietly agrees with her.
"That's nonsense! But for the sake of fun, yeah sure. It's a deal!"

She started her morning the usual way and went to work early. She took all the things she need and went to the shooting location. The higher ups of the famous sports brand wanted her to personally oversee the project, thus, needing her to be at every shooting location, every shooting day. It's a big 'comeback' endorsement project for the hyung line after their military service.
At the location, she immediately got busy checking everything she needs to supervise and didn't notice the boys' arrival. She greeted them the usual way and smiled awkwardly at Hoseok before they started. The first half of shoot took them almost 4 hours before the break time. Meals were brought in and all of them were given a set each.
When Namjoon noticed that Lily is still in front of her computer, busy checking everything and still hasn't touched her food, he stood up and went to her.
"Hey, your food's gonna get cold."
Lily looked at her side to see who was it. "Oh Joon-a! I'll just check all of this before I eat."
Namjoon took a chair and sat beside her. "You're still the same hardworking girl that we knew."
"I'll have to do my best so I won't end up jobless", she let out a slight laugh.
"You'll never be jobless but you'll probably end up working in the hospital because you are going to get sick. Here.." he said while taking off the cover of her food, "at least eat some while you're working."
She isn't taking the food so he decided to grab the chopsticks and placed some kimchi on the spoonful of rice. "Eat this. Open your mouth", trying to feed her.
She got surprised and looked around feeling embarrassed, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to feed you if you're not going to eat by yourself."
"Stop it, it's so embarrassing", she blushed but discreetly laughing.
"I'll only stop if you will take this food and eat it. I won't leave you here."
"Arasso! (I get it)." She stopped working on her computer and took the food from Namjoon. She ate it by herself trying not to make a fuss.
Some of the people around them noticed the two especially the other boys. Hoseok is on his phone trying to avoid looking at the two.
The second part of the shoot has been smooth so they're almost done for the day after a few more hours. Minutes later, someone arrived holding a number of Iced Coffee from their favorite coffee shop. Hoseok talked to the guy and received the drinks for all of them. He handed each to the boys and asked the staff to grab theirs. He took one and walked towards Lily.
He placed a small note on it and handed the coffee to her. He didn't say anything and she took it without even thinking. He walked back to his seat and continued talking to the others.
Lily noticed the note and read it:
미소를 지어주세요. 당신은 미소로 잘 어울립니다.
Please smile. You look good with a smile.
She doesn't know why but it really made her smile. Maybe because his note sounded so formal. No hard feelings whatsoever, she looked at him and gave a thank you kind of smile.
