Lovely Stranger
Awkward

The full dining table looks unattractive now. A couple there showed another look. The man seemed nervous, even his every move seemed strange in Jaewon's eyes. In his heart, he regretted his greeting earlier.

I shouldn't have called Jinu hyung just now, he said in his heart. Jaewon regrets having put Jinu and Bomi in this awkward situation. Ah... If only he could turn back time.

"Try this hyung, you haven't eaten here in a long time, have you?" Jaewon thrusting the pieces of tteok in Jinu's bowl, he just tried to melt the strange-feeling atmosphere. In contrast to the stupid Jinu, the man just nodded indistinctly. The girl beside him now started to feel strange, remembering when Jinu could not even recite the name of the girl in front of him fluently. He then glanced at Bomi, his mind guessing who exactly the girl in front of him was. Is he Jinu's ex? Hasn't this guy ever dated?

It's like a sudden brain attack, which leaves every nerve not working properly. Jinu ate quickly this time, unlike his usual.

"Why do I feel weird here?" Jennie started the conversation after a strange silence from those in front of her.

"There's nothing strange, probably because we haven't seen each other in a long time" replied the girl sitting right in front of Jennie. A few minutes ago they got acquainted. He said that he was an old friend of Jinu and Jaewon who completed his education in Japan.

"Yes, you should be chatting warmly, not even—"

"Come on!" Jinu stood up from his seat while slowly pulling Jennie's hand.

"To where? I haven't even finished eating yet" Jennie protested.

"I remember that the stove in the house was still on. If you don't go home soon, my house will burn down" Jinu replied. Jennie jumped out of her seat as she grabbed her small carry bag.

"Oh my goodness, oppa ... Why are you so reckless! Go, hurry!" Jennie pulled Jinu's hand, "sorry, yes. We have to go first," his farewell followed by a nod from Jaewon and the girl beside him.

The two lovebirds left. The girl beside Jaewon stared at their increasingly distant shadow. His eyes warmed up, for some reason he began to shed tears.

"Bomi noona?"

The girl called Bomi turned her head while wiping her tears quickly.

However, Jaewon knew the truth. He did not want to ask further because he did not want to muddy the atmosphere.

Jennie immediately rushed into the kitchen shortly after Jinu parked the car.

"Come, oppa. Hurry along!"

But when she reached the kitchen, Jennie was shocked. He stared at the stove in front of him. The fire doesn't even light up.

...He turned to look at Jinu while shaking his waist. "Oppa, are you lying?" his tan....

"YES." YEAH." Jinu walked forward towards Jennie then brought her face closer.

Jennie pushed Jinu's body slowly. "Yes ... You want to look for a chance? You haven't even filled me up yet."

Jinu folded both his hands. "Serve a food delivery. Beres, right?"

"Is that so? But you paid, didn't you?" jennie asked who was then answered with a nod by the man in front of her.

Jennie immediately surfed on her phone. Go to the food delivery app and order some expensive tasty menus. Who cares, Jinu won't pay?
