Cake

"Hm?"

I noticed a familiar face in the agency's cafeteria. I carefully approached the girl.

"Ya!" I slightly hand-chopped the girl's head.

"Ouch!"

It was Kang Hyewon, the biggest eater among the girls.

This girl is known to be one of the best visuals among rookie idols. There's even a rumor that this girl won't get fat no matter what and how she eat.

"I always see you eat."

"Ugh. But I like eating. The cake here is delicious."

"Where does those food you eat even go?"

"Duh? Stomach of course."

Ugh. This is hard, being an idol group's manager. I was told to watch the diet of these girls but almost all of them are food-lovers, especially this girl.

"Want some cake, oppa?" Hyewon sweetly asked.

"Nah. I'm cutting down on sweets."

"Hmph."

For some reason, Hyewon looks mad. I just released a deep sigh.

"Okay. I'll buy one there to eat with you."

"No!"

"Hm?"

"What I mean is..." The girl sliced a piece of the cake she is eating with a fork and offered it to me. "Here, oppa."

What is this girl thinking? There are other people here and they can see me, being offered a fork of cake by a national idol. Gulp. This is hard.

"Stop kidding, Hyewon. I'll just buy one myself. Wait here."

clank!

The girl put down the fork aggressively.

"..."

"Eh? What's wrong?"

"Hmph."

"Hyewon-ssi?"

"I lost my appetite." Hyewon suddenly stood up.

"Huh?"

Hyewon left. She was wearing a mad and disappointed face. Is it because I rejected her offer?

bzzzt bzzzt

I checked my phone it was Eunbi.

Eunbi:
Where are you? Like right now?

Hyunjun:
Cafeteria downstairs. Why? Miss me?

Eunbi:
Idiot. Hyewon is missing. We need her for practice now.

Hyunjun:
She was just here. Was eating cake.

Eunbi:
Eh? Again?

Hyunjun:
And she left without finishing it.

Eunbi:
...

Eunbi:
😧 Now that's surprising. Knowing it's her.

Hyunjun:
Really?

Eunbi:
Maybe something happened. 🤔

Hyunjun:
Maybe she's on her way there now.

Eunbi:
Okay. 😊

Eunbi:
Chat you again later. ☺️

Hyunjun:
For what?

Eunbi:
... 😶

Eunbi:
Ugh!! 😡

Eunbi:
Never mind!!😡

Eunbi:
Bye!! 😡

Seriously. What's wrong with these girls today?

____________

"Okay! That's it for today! Rest well, babies!"

"Yes, unnie!"

"Hyewon-ah."

"Yes, Eunbi- unnie?"

"Why do you look so out of it today?"

"..."

"Are you sick?"

"N-nothing, unnie."

"Hyunjun told me he saw you this morning in the cafeteria."

"!!!"

"..."

Eunbi suddenly noticed something is off. As soon as she mentioned Hyunjun's name, Hyewon twitched a little like she's surprised.

"It's nothing really, unnie. I think I just need to rest."

"Okay. If you say so."

As Hyewon is going out of the door, Hyunjun suddenly opened the door.

"!!!"

Hyewon was startled. She just bowed her head then went out running. Hyunjun was dumbfounded with the scene that just happened. Eunbi, with crossed arms, glares at Hyunjun.

"What?"

"Nothing. Come here."

Hyunjun approaches Eunbi. As soon as Hyunjun stepped in front of Eunbi, she immediately wrapped her arms around him.

"Euunnnghhh!"

"What a spoiled rabbit you are. You even dismissed your practice early." Says the taller guy while patting Eunbi's head.

"I just want to recharge my Hyunjun energy~" Eunbi says it cutely.

And from afar...

"What is this scene I am seeing?"

It was Yena who's trying to get something she left in the practice room and currently peeking from the opened door's gap.

.

"I thought you're mad?"

"Why would I be mad at my boyfriend?"

"Let's get cake later?"

"Okay!~"
