MINA'S POV

It was about midnight when we decided to go home because Yonghwa oppa have been calling him, so we do not have any choice but to go. He stood up, but I didn't because he just left our leftovers on the picnic mat. He didn't bother to clean it up, so I shouted.

"Yah! Noodle Boy!" I yelled and he looked back at me.

"You're still sitting? I thought you followed me already." He walked back at me and offered our his hand. Maybe he thinks that I can't stand up on my own. I looked at his hand and rolled my eyes. So, he chuckled, "What's with the stare?" He asked.

"Aren't you going to clean up our mess here, Noodle Boy?" I asked back which made him laugh.

"Let them clean it up--"

"Clean this up or else--"

He leaned his face towards mine, smirking, "Or else what?" He whispered.

I furrowed my eyebrows and pushed him away, "Or else I'd kick your ass off this building." I threatened. Oh, I'm serious about kicking some ass, but he just laughed at what I said. He helped me clean the area and we both headed back to our units.

He's strangely quiet as we were inside the bus and that's really weird since he talks all the time. He's got something to brag anytime and he's got unnecessary things to say, but he's plain quiet right now which made me very curious why.

"The heck with you?" I asked and he immediately looked at me. His eyes were glued to the outside of the window, watching over every person on the street. His eyes were a bit widened, probably asking why. He also hummed a yes and his eyebrows are slightly raised.

"What?" He asked, very innocent.

"You seem lost." I answered.

He chuckled and sighed, "I'm just thinking."

"About?"

"The girl that I will marry in the future." He answered which made me more curious now. "My parents won't tell me who she is." He snickered and shook his head, as if he's telling me to forget whatever he said.

"Then nag them, so they would tell you who that bitch is." I smirked and so he laughed a little.

He sighed and nodded slightly, "I would."

"How do you feel about it?" I asked. He shrugged both of his shoulders as if he doesn't bother on answering my question, but he still managed to give me a reply.

"I feel..." he paused for a moment. "...a bit distracted, I guess?" He sighed, a bit deeper this time. "I really don't know. I'm a graduating student, so I'm really busy these days. I know I have to focus on my studies. I don't have time to think about the girl I told you about." I didn't know how to react since he's becoming serious. It's very rare for me to see him in this way, thinking deep than usual. I guess there's still a side from Noodle Boy that he's afraid of showing.

"Do you think you have any chance of falling in love with her?" He chuckled and faced me. He must've thought that I'm kidding, so he chuckled, but then he went back to being serious.

"I actually don't believe that love can be learned." He replied. "When I met Seulgi, I fell in love in first sight. I didn't have any lessons nor I taught myself on how to love her. I just laid my eyes on her and felt this feeling that I've never felt before." He has a point. From what he said, I think I believe him. We have this same perspective when it comes to love. Maybe because we're on the same shoes. We're both in the same situation in which we would marry someone for business.

The bus stopped, so we hopped off and walked our way to the apartment. Both of us are real quiet. There's no tension between the two of us unlike before. I think we're starting to get each other right now.

We reached the apartment. He stood before me, his hands were inside his pockets and made a sweet smirk. He looked devilishly handsome, alright.

"Thank you for tonight." He greeted and turned the doorknob. He opened his unit's door and nodded before entering. He then closed the door as soon as he entered, leaving me outside.

"Thank you." I whispered and decided to enter, too. Sorn welcomed me with a teasing face, so I asked her why.

"What's with the look, Sorn?" I questioned.

She giggled, "I saw you and Jimin outside earlier. Did you guys had a good date?" She wriggled her eyebrows up and down and I just had to laugh at her playfulness. "Looks like you did."

"I don't like him." I said and stepped inside my room. She's waiting for me to continue whatever I told her, so she's staring at me with a smirk plastered on her beautiful face. "Never..." I whispered. Never in million years, Mina. I closed the bedroom's door and laid on the bed. I yawned and closed my eyes to sleep, but I heard a ring from my phone.

It was a text message and it come from an unknown number.

From: Unknown Number

Guess what I'm doing
right now? -Noodle Boy

12:21 AM

I rolled my eyes. How did he get my number, anyway? I don't usually text back, but I don't know what's gotten into me. My hands typed words and sent it to him. I also saved his number, so I won't be confused or anything.

To: Noodle Boy

What?

12:22 AM

It took him about three minutes before replying back. I was expecting that he would just tell me some random thing, but I was confused and flustered to see his reply.

From: Noodle Boy

Thinking about you

12:25 AM

"What the fuck?" I hissed and decided not to play games with him anymore. I dozed off.

JIMIN'S POV

"What time's your class?" Yonghwa hyung asked me as he's buttoning his shirt. If I were a woman, I would totally scream because of his body, but I'm a guy, so...nothing. I've got abs, too, so I don't have to care.

I answered, "7:30 AM."

"That's too early."

"Is Taemin hyung still sleeping?" I asked and he hummed a yes. "Was he drunk?"

"Sunmi took him out last night and the two of you just magically disappeared." He told me with a slightly annoyed tone. I smiled and rushed to give him a hug. I squeezed him really tightly and burried my head on his biceps. This is how I show my love to my hyungs, haha. "Get off me, little boy!"

"Ehhhh, I'm sorry, hyung!" I laughed out loud and neared my face to his, but he held my face like a ball. His hand is as big as my face and that's really whoa. He pushed me away and dressed himself. "Why don't you get a girlfriend, hyung?" I asked him.

He chuckled, "Why did you get a girlfriend, knowing that you'll get married?" I pouted and sighed in distress. "Time to break up with Mina, boy."

"We're not even dating yet." I told him, so he raised a brow and faced me with an unconvinced face. "I'm telling the truth!"

"How about Seulgi? Have you settled whatever you have to settle?" He asked.

"I don't care about her now." I said.

"She's the one who broke up, but she keeps on coming back to you. You were done telling her you love her, am I right?" I nodded to his question. I was sick of telling her I love her, so I stopped caring. I just accepted the fact that she was really done with me, but seeing her now, begging me to come back to her, makes me feel annoyed. I don't understand her. What's her score?

"I'm going now." He smiled and patted my shoulder. "Go to school now." I smirked and watched him leave the unit. I scanned my eyes across the room and saw the fridge. It's not bad to give Mina some breakfast, right? I'm just a caring neighbor.

I decided to make her some sushi since that's the least Japanese food I know how to make. Thank God that we also have the ingredients, so I started making it. After a few minutes, I placed the sushi on a lunchbox and prepared myself. There's only 30 minutes left for me before class starts.

I decided not to straight my hair, so it would look more noodle-like. Noodle boy. I smirked as I stare myself at the mirror. I took the lunchbox and my bag and exited the unit.

I knocked on Mina's door and waited for her to open it. I wore my best smile and when the door opened, my shoulders fell when I saw Bambam open it. He was a bit surprised to see me in front of the door. I wasn't expecting him, either.

We were at that position when an old lady from the other apartment saw us. She made a smile, even though she has no dentures on and cheered, "Love wins!" I gestured her that there's nothing going on between me and Bambam, but she kept on cheering until she entered her house.
