"It's my turn to ask." Yeji nodded at Yeonjun. "What happened? Why did they beat you up?"

"How can I be sure to trust you?" Yeonjun stared at the greed light on her chest.

"I won't tell anyone. I'm just...worried." Yeji held his hand. "Please?"

"There was this innocent man," yeonjun sighed before continuing. "He was a very kind man and I didn't know why but our boss wanted to sabotage him, so we kidnapped him and beat him up.

"Until one day, he escaped. I was the kindest to him so they all thought that i let him escaped but I didn't. They said that they'll kill my sister if I didn't find him so I did."

Yeonjun kept on glancing at Yeji to see her reaction but all he could see was worry and pity.

"I couldn't find him so they all decided to kill my sister instead but she..." He paused. "She's lost. She's...gone." He lied.

Yeji, upon hearing that, backed off pf Yeonjun and held the tray tighter. The green light on her chest suddenly turned red making Yeonjun stare at it for a while.

"What's that?" He pointed at her chest."

"N-Nothing.She covered her chest with her blazer. "Get some rest."

After she said those, she quickly walked away, somehow tripping at her sudden action but she balanced herself.

As Yeji left the room, Yeonjun smirked and laid on his bed; the picture of the green light on her chest once again invading his head.

"Should I trust you?" Yeonjun sighed. "Or not."

...

"Hyejin! Change my bed sheet!"

"But, we're playing." Chenle whined while Hyejin just laughed and stood up, leaving Chenle on the living room.

"I'm here."

Hyejin entered Jeno's room only to see him sitting on his swivel chair while playing with his phone.

"Change my bed sheet."

"Um...where are the other sheets?"

"There." Jeno pointed at a cabinet near her.

Hyejin nodded and immediately took the sheets off of his bed before taking new ones to change.

No one talked while she was changing the sheets. Jeno kept on playing with his phone while waiting for her to finish.

After a few minutes, she was done. Smiling, Hyejin picked the dirty sheets on the floor and neared Jeno.

"I'm done, I'll go now."

Jeno nodded, not looking at her as he continued to scroll on his phone.

Hyejin smiled at herself and walked away, she stopped at the doorstep as she twisted the door knob.

The sudden stop made Jeno look up, locking his gaze with her sparkling doe eyes.

"Jeno," Hyejin muttered. "Thank you for last night."
