"So... what are you doing this Saturday?" She put the cup of hot honey tea down the table then sat comfortably on the couch. Taeyeon was sitting on the floor doing her paperwork.


"Uhh.. I don't know. Nothing I guess, why?" She stopped typing for a while to look at her side finding the smoke raised up from the cup inviting her to drink it. "For me?" She deliberately not casted her eyes to the other girl since she wore loose T-shirt and shorts. She had seen Tiffany's legs many times before but that didn't mean she used to that. It took a remarkable self-control to not ogling on her.

"Yeah. Careful, it's hot."

"Thanks." She said shortly. She took the cup, brought it to her lips and tested the water before sipped it slowly. "Woah, this is really good!" She grinned gratefully at Tiffany.

"You like it?"

"Of course I like it." She slurped again. Hot drink on chilly weather was just perfect.

"Wow, you actually honest this time. Not annoyingly turning around upside down just to avoid saying the truth that my creation is awesome."

Taeyeon narrowed her eyes at the later for God knew how long. "Shut up," she finally said with flat tone making Tiffany laugh.

"I thought you're going to make some excuse! You run out of idea, don't you?" She mischievously mocked her.

"Whatever." Taeyeon grumbled under her breath.

After she calmed her down, Tiffany pulled out some tissue to dried her tear from laughing too hard.

"Ehem," she cleared her throat. "In all seriousness though, you don't have anything to do this Saturday?"

"Nope, don't think so."

"Well, about meeting your friend, we can do dinner if you want."

"This Saturday, you mean?" Tiffany nodded. "I'll ask them tomorrow then. We invite them here or you want to go to a restaurant?"

"What about home made cooking?"

"You'll cook for them?"

"Yep."

"Okay then."

Taeyeon resumed her work meanwhile Tiffany laid on her back, flipping her magazine on one to another page. The TV was playing on soft music- Tiffany's choice.

It was a peaceful night in their house.

"Hoaaam..." Taeyeon yawned as she scratched her back making some bone cracking sound.

"Sleepy?" Tiffany asked without taking her eyes off magazine.

"Naahhoaamm," she yawned again. "I still want to work a bit more."

"You should sleep. You've been in front of the computer for hours."

"Yeah I will, my head already hurts." She rubbed her forehead hoping the throbbing would go away.

"You want me to massage your head?" Tiffany peeked from her magazine.

"No, no, no it's fine." She shook her head. She didn't keen on the idea of having Tiffany's hand on her head. It'll give her more headaches. "Are you working on a case right now?" She asked as she opened other document.

"Yep."

"That's your answer? Just yep?" She typed down.

"You want to know more?"

"Why would I bother to ask you if I don't want to know more?" Taeyeon rolled her eyes.

"I don't know, you never ask before."

"So you want to tell me or you not want to tell me." She said irritably. She was getting impatient.

"If you really want to know then maybe you should show some interest to it." Tiffany got up from the couch. The movement made Taeyeon turned her head towards her. Tiffany showed her back to Taeyeon as she tied her hair into ponytail- successfully made Taeyeon gulped by the act. Taeyeon quickly took the glass and drank from it when Tiffany turned towards her again. "And don't being a douche." She added then walked into her room without another word.

"Damn it!" Taeyeon muttered under her breath.

She underlined yet another sentence in the journal. She had spent her in between surgery time to read and work on her proposal. She was just finished one surgery and SeoHyun was now preparing her next surgery. She got half hour to do some of her paperwork. She sat at the attending lounge with her paper on top of her crossed leg and a bottle of infused water in her left hand.

"Still working on your proposal?"

"Yeah, long way to go."

"And the chance the board will reject it?"

"97%."

Sunny laughed at her friend as she took a seat beside her, chewing her muffin in the way.

"I'm making a breakthrough, okay? This is going to save live more than you can imagine."

"I know, which is why I'm supporting you all the way." Sunny said incoherently.

"Eat first, you dumb." Taeyeon mocked her.

"Whatever. What's that?" She nodded at the bottle she held.

"Hm? Oh, infused water." She answered nonchalantly.

"You drink infused water? Since when?"

"This morning."

"Why?"

"Last night Tiffany saw this commercial on the magazine about how healthy infused water is," she mimiced the way Tiffany said it. "She'll make me drink it every morning."

Sunny just stared at her friend with confused face. Would she really obey what Tiffany told her?

"I got to go. Got mitral valve to repair." She closed her laptop and gathered her things then put it in her locker.

"Huh? Yeah. Good luck with that."

"I got this with the back of my hand, shorty."

"Yah!"

"By the way, are you guys free this Saturday?"

"Guess so, why?"

"You're welcome to come to my house if you want to meet Tiffany. If you can't, than I won't ask her for the second time. Your loss."

"We'll make it! We'll definitely make it! I'll see you at lunch!" Sunny saluted her before Taeyeon disappeared behind the door.
