Then time is 8:30pm, I'm in my room alone,well with my laptop, and Seulgi. Well- sort of. I stare long and hard at the only information i have, her name and gender. I'm guessing she lives where I do, but she could be the next town over too.... I sigh.

I've only known her existence a little over a month,why do I even care?

But that brings to mind the question I'm itching to ask her.

Why did she add me?

It's practically impossible. We have no mutual friends and I've never heard her name before. She leaves me with a confused feeling in the pit of my stomach. I'd like to think it's curiosity, but I'm not sure.

Opening a new tab next to the Facebook one and I type in 'Kang Seulgi'. I search for photos but nothing much seems to come up, except one picture with two teenage girls. I click it instantly.

On the left is a girl with a cute eye smile and dark brown hair, on the left is another girl. Her face isn't clear,she's hardly in the picture. Just glancing at the camera out of surprise,she's blurry but I manage to make out tan skin and dark hair.

I freeze.

1 new message.

My heart suddenly feels too heavy for my chest to hold, I switch tabs and see a message from Seulgi.

how's the research coming along?

I exhale deeply and try to calm down, how should I explain this?...How does she know? Although I'm worried I reply quickly,My heart thumping loudly in the process. Who is exactly is Kang Seulgi?

huh?

for your history project.

Is she making fun of me? Yeah, I'm doing it on you. But then I realise I do in fact have a history project, and I haven't started.

For now I leave the history homework and click back onto the picture. My eyes wander down to the source link and I click it, a Facebook page opens up. The name it's under is 'Joy Park'. We're friends.

I must've added her when I first got this account, back when I added anyone who came up.

The picture is about three months old. The person tagged is deleted but their comment still comes up.

Seulgi: Happy New Year.

It makes me wonder why she deleted the account, but more importantly i look at the picture again. The picture containing a blurry Kang Seulgi. The person I've been talking to. It's weird to finally put a face to her words.

I click on Joy's photos but I don't find anymore, she's put all her old ones on private. I swallow hard and scroll down through Joy's page. In three days she's going to a museum opening with two friends.

She writes:

'Irene Bae lets go and bring Seulgi!'

Seulgi.

My Seulgi.

I quickly scramble to call my best friend's number and wait impatiently for her to pick up. I can't believe I'm doing this.

'Wendy?'

"Hey,'"
I breathe,
"I was wondering if you'd come to a museum opening with me."

// the reason sooyoung and joohyun's names are their stage names (joy + irene) is bc a friend had an idea to set this story in like america (soz canada but i can't make them smoke weed / drink underage in ur country) so i've used their stage names as their English names! \\
