Mina arrived home after a jog with Nayeon and Momo. She frowned seeing her parents car parking on the side of the road ㅡ in front of her house. She was not bothered at first, but soon she realized Chaeyoung was sleeping naked in her room.
"Fuck." Mina ran and hide behind her car. Playing the spy card, she used her hand as a binocular and scan the corners inside. Since the front is made of glass, it was easy for her to know the occurrence.
Shinhye and Nana are busy working on the kitchen: talking and laughing. They looked like a happily married couple.
Mina calmed her ass down: inhale and exhale and walked inside. "Good morning."
"Good morning, Mina." Shinhye responded first with a smile and focused back on the pan.
With trembling hands, Mina unzipped the zipper of her tracksuit jacket and grab a sports drink on the fridge.
Nana leaned against the table while watching her daughter drank. "You looked in a great mood."
Mina got attacked by the words of her mother. Almost spit the liquid yet she held it in her mouth and was forced to gulp it down. She coughed feeling lump deep in her throat. "Argh, I love Gatorade." She uttered in excused and drank it all.
Nana was smiling at Mina. Still waiting for a response.
"Eh, um, mom... I'm just happy about some things happening in my life these days. I started talking with a past friend and tried to fix our friendship. Especially, the family dinner last night. Meeting new family. Having such a big family. I care about those things to Nana."
Mina voiced out her feelings sincerely with a smile. She did not lie, yet she did not tell all the reason. Behind the office doors and under the rain scenarios.
"You're growing up now huh."
"Is that supposed to be a compliment or a mockery?" Mina looked at the fiance. "Shinhye, your woman is bullying me."
Shinhye could only chuckle over the mother and daughter. "Nana give me a hand here. Mina, you wake Chaeyoung and take a shower." She ordered to ceased the small feud.
"You're really whiny when Shinhye is around." Nana giggled.
"Cause she's always around when you're making fun of me." Mina said and stormed away: stamping her feet as she took steps on the stairs.
Out from their parents' sight: Mina ran to the bedroom and locked the door. She placed her palm above her chest and listen to her heartbeat.
"Gosh, I feel like a criminal."
Mina walked over the bed and sat down. She watched Chaeyoung sleeping peacefully. Ten minutes more and it will be seven in the morning. She just stared at her while waiting for the mannerism time she will wake up.
