Are you ever interested in seeing lotus flowers?

I would definitely love to see them! I heard they are at their fullest bloom on late June and September!

Lotus flowers are so pretty!

In fact, I grew some when I was younger but it was long ago because I was still living with my grandmother.

My brother loves to eat the seeds though, especially if they're roasted.

I miss it so much :(

It would be nice to see lotus flowers blossom with you but then again, you don't know me haha.

The lotus origami looks pretty, isn't it? I really like how it turned out.

I hope you like it, it's my favorite so far.

"Jena! Can we go to your grandma's house and taste the wonderous roasted lotus seeds she makes?"

Jaemin raised his head at the familiar voice.

"I'm not sure lotus seeds are even in season, Hyuck. I miss them lots though," Jena says.

"Darling, here you go," Renjun gives her a lotus flower on the stem origami. She chuckles and accepts it.

Jaemin's eyes glued on them, his head full of assumptions that it might be Jena who is giving her the origamis.

However, he remembers she makes them for another person... He sighs, slightly disappointed.

"Jena! Choi Beomgyu is requesting to see you~," one of their classmates says when they enter the classroom.

Jena raises his head, puzzled about the sudden request.

"Oohh-," most of their classmates cooed. Jena rolls her eyes and exits the classroom.

Jeno glances at Jaemin who looks concerned. Jeno, knowing the truth, made his way to Donghyuck and Renjun.

"Mind telling me something?" Jeno leaned on her desk.

"No?" Donghyuck tilted his head whilst Renjun crossed his arms.

"Really? Jena is the one sending the origamis to Jaemin, isn't she?" Jeno whispered, the two boys becomes quiet.

"Please don't tell anyone-," Renjun begins to plead.

"How are you so sure?" Donghyuck snickered, Jeno pulled out his phone, and showed a picture of Jena's letter.

Both boys grew silent until Donghyuck grabbed his collar and pulled him close.

"Don't you dare spill-,"

"Yah, yah, yah- stop it," Renjun pulled him back. Donghyuck pouted, his arms crossed whilst Jeno fixes his uniform.

"I won't but like what is the relationship of Beomgyu and Jena?" Jeno whispered, not interested in letting others know.

"Beomgyu has a crush on our dear Jena, it's a big thing," Renjun sighed.

"Boo hoo, poor him! Jena likes someone else!" Donghyuck says loudly, suddenly getting smacked on his back.

Jaemin faces the three boys, surprised about what he just heard.

"Haha- shut up," Renjun told Donghyuck who stayed pouty.

Soon, Jena enters the classroom in a rush.

"I have to go somewhere with Gyu, body student stuff! Go home without me," she ruffled Jeno's hair before she ran out.

Jena sighs as she leaves the school grounds.

The sky showed the beautiful twilight that she loved seeing when she leaves school late.

However, she stopped her tracks when she saw Jaemin on the side.

She quickly crosses the empty road until she was behind Jaemin who looked busy with his phone.

"Why is Mr. Popular so busy with his phone?" He flinched at her sudden voice.

"Did you just come out?" He asked and she nodded her head.

"Yes, body student stuff pulled me back. Anyway, how are you today? Any cliche love letters you read?"

"I don't even have time to read all of it... I just read what I can," Jaemin answered.

"And that 'read what I can' is the letters your love origami admirer sends you," she chuckled.

"Actually, yes- I wonder how they even do these," Jaemin showed her a picture.

All origamis simply displayed on the shelves. The baby blue envelope under each origami... It made her smile.

"That's cute, I hope you end up finding them," Jena says as she picks up her pace.

Jaemin did the same and stood on her side. He smiled and remembered what his admirer said.

"Do you eat lotus seeds? I heard they're really good when roasted," Jaemin said. Immediately, Jena's eyes sparkled.

"Yes! They're very very good! You should try some whenever you see them." She showed him a picture.

Suddenly, she felt something fall from her bag. They both turn back to see Poinsettia flower origami.

She quickly picked it up and smiled at Jaemin.

"I know a cafe near here- let's go there, shall we?" She said with a slightly nervous tone while Jaemin was confused.

Why does she have that? And once again, it's identical to his...
