A Dreamy Date (Mina)

"Jihyoahwouldyougooutwithmetoday" Mina squeaked, then hit herself on the head. Way to fucking go, Myoui Mina.

"... Come again?" As expected, Jihyo did not catch one word of that.

A few minutes and a lot of stuttering later, Jihyo finally got the idea.

"Ooooh so that's what you mean. Of course Minari, why not? I wanna enjoy the outdoors today too. Let's go!" Jihyo exclaimed, then instinctively braced herself.

Her situation in the Twice dorm was, for lack of better words, extremely volatile. If, God forbid, any other member managed to overhear her acceptance to Mina's invitation, she would surely get in a lot of trouble from jealous supergirls. Being crushed beneath a sulky Tzuyu and spun around at Mach 7 by a frustrated Momo was never fun to say the least.

To her surprise, nothing happened.

"Eh? Where is everyone today?" Only now did she notice the unusual absence of the remainder of TWICE.

"I... may or may not have made them think they had some important business to take care of first thing in the morning." Behind her, Mina timidly disclosed.

"Mina!"

Standing at the front door, Jihyo could only stare in disbelief at the pouring rain.

"How can this be... The weather was so nice just now."

"Now we can't enjoy anything outdoors... and just going out is troublesome. Why even bother?" Mina murmured.

They looked at one another, mirroring the other's disappointed look. It might not be the nicest thing to think, but Jihyo always thought Mina was the most beautiful when she was sad. The melancholy within those crystal irises was simply out of this world.

Lost in her thoughts, Jihyo never noticed the sound of rain coming to a halt. She only jerked out of it when Mina excitedly shook her shoulders.

"Look Jihyo! The rain stops!"

Dazedly tearing her gaze from Mina, Jihyo looked out to find out that the weather had indeed cleared up. The cloud had scattered, giving way for sunlight to shine brilliantly.

"Eh, really? Wow..."

"I guess we got really lucky. Let's go?" Already standing outside, Mina extended a hand, which Jihyo gladly accepted.

"Say, Minari. Are we on a date?" Jihyo decided to ask as they were striding towards their destination.

"Depends how you think about it. If you want to, sure." Came the mischievous reply.

The so-called date was phenomenal.

They went straight to Lotte World, where they had the time of their lives just having fun and enjoying each other's company. Jihyo was glad to see Mina in her bright carefree mood, playing her heart out at the arcade and screaming at the top of her lungs on the rollercoaster. Of course, she did as well. The couple had such a blast together, they barely noticed time passing by; only when Jihyo noticed their dark shadows on the ground, draped by golden sunset glow, did she realize the day was coming to a close.

"It's getting late Minari. We should head back soon." Jihyo observed sadly.

"Not so fast Jihyo-ah, we have a movie to catch in ten minutes." Mina cheekily said, whipping out a couple of tickets from her pocket. Jihyo's mood brightened immediately.

"Oh my gosh, are those for 'District 9' premiere? I'm dying to watch that movie!" She gushed with excitement. Mina nodded, proud of herself. "How do you even get the tickets? I heard they're sold out in like one hour!"
