"H-hey guys..." Yeji awkwardly greeted the 3 who were already seated, each eating a different lunch they had bought from the different stalls in the university canteen.

The three looked up, briefly stopping themselves from stuffing food in their mouths, a large teasing grin slowly forming on each of their faces as they looked at Yeji, who began to blush redder and redder from the embarrassment.

"I-I'll go get something to eat first," the silver haired girl's eyes shifted left and right, not daring to make any eye contact with the rest of the girls, before quickly scurrying away from the table.

Yeji looked around the cafeteria, glossing over each stall's menu, before deciding on a kiosk that sold Korean food, ordering a set meal of haejangguk, a dish best served after a night of drinking and partying, not that Yeji had partied that hard last night, but she did drink, a lot.

She made her way back to the table, holding a tray of hot bubbling soup in a heated stone bowl accompanied by a bowl of white rice with some side dishes, only to find that Jisu had already arrived and was seated beside Chaeryeong.

She carefully placed the heavy tray beside Yuna before taking a seat.

"Oh? I was actually gonna order this too," Jisu commented upon seeing that Yeji had brought haejangguk to the table, "do you wanna just share? I'm not that hungry after the bacon and eggs."

It was as if Jisu now had some sort of superpowers to stop time cause Chaeryeong, Ryujin and Yuna all paused at the same moment, midway of taking another bite of their food, eyes quickly darting towards Jisu, their expressions clearly saying what the fuck did I just hear.

Though it was definitely noticeable that there were now 3 pairs of eyes on her, Jisu payed them no attention, not wanting to give her dongsaengs the satisfaction of possibly seeing her flustered.

Yeji noticed this too and decided to follow Jisu's lead, though she was clearly not as much of a natural at being cold as Jisu was.

"Uh ... sure, here you go," as Yeji pushed the tray to the closer to Jisu, who was sitting directly across from her.

Jisu grabbed the spoon that was on Chaeryeong's tray, who was still frozen in time, her pupils following Jisu's every move. 

Jisu took a sip of the hot soup, blowing on it first to cool it down as steam could be seen rising.

"So, are you guys dating again?" Ryujin innocently asked.

Jisu instinctively began choking on the spoonful of soup she had just sipped and was about to swallow, coughing hard at the sound of Ryujin's a-little-too-direct question.

"Oh my god! Are you okay??" Yeji panically asked, rushing to grab her water bottle and twisting it open, quickly handing it to Jisu who immediately grabbed it and chugged down almost half of the water that was inside.

Jisu took a deep breath, gathering back the oxygen she had just lost from choking, before standing up and reaching her arm out to flick Ryujin on the forehead as hard as she could.

"OW!" Ryujin exclaimed, rubbing the area which Jisu had flicked, which was quickly becoming red, "what the hell was that for??"

"Babe, you ... kinda deserved it though," Yuna chimed in, before pushing away Ryujin's hand and rubbing the now red as a tomato mark on the forehead of her girlfriend with her thumb.

"But I kinda agree with Ryujin, uhm, what the hell is going on unnie?" Chaeryeong redirected the conversation back onto the main issue: why was Jisu now friendly, or at the least friendlier compared to a few days ago and even yesterday, to Yeji?
