"Jihyo you just have to give it time!" Nayeon said
"Yea! I'm sure the one will come soon" Jeongyeon added
The eight membered girl group was sitting in a circle when they were suddenly talking about their leader Jihyo's love life.
"Everyone always says that! Yet nothing!" Jihyo exclaimed
"Unnie it's not that bad. You're single! You can go and have fun!" Chaeyoung said trying to make her single unnie feel better
"I can't Chaeng! You all have someone! Nayeon unnie has Jeong, Minari has Chae, and Dubu has Momo! I'm all alone in our group.." The leader complained as she laid down on the dance floor spreading her arms and legs out
"What about Sana unnie! She's single too" Dahyun said
"Yah! I am NOT single" Sana said
The members eyes widen as they turned to the Japanese girl.
"You have a girlfriend?!" Momo exclaimed
"Uh yea??" Sana said
"Who?!" Mina asked
"Y/N" Sana responded
"WHAT?! LIKE ACTRESSES KIM Y/N?!" Nayeon shouted
"Yup" Sana said popping the 'p'
"Are you sure this isn't another one of your hook ups where you'll play the girl and find another one" Jeongyeon asked raising an eyebrow
"NO! I love Y/N! I mean it...I haven't felt this way for a girl in a while and now I have her.." Sana said
The members cooed at their member's love life. Meanwhile Mrs.Park Jihyo over here wanted to puke.
"ughhh~ great now I really am the only single one" Jihyo said groaning out as she sat back up
"Calm down Jihyo-yah~ plus we're all gay so don't even think about our relationships!" Mina said
"You guys being gay doesn't change the fact that I'm STILL single. Man OR woman" Jihyo said
"So you're gay?" Momo asked
"WHA- NO!" Jihyo exclaimed "what I'm saying is that I've always dreamt of a cute love story like from movies.."
"I'd be at a bookstore, I'll accidentally trip and then boom! Fall into the arms of a handsome guy!" Jihyo said
"That'd be cute" Nayeon said smiling
"Then we'll sneak into bars while we gaze at the stars" Jihyo said smiling just imagining it
"You'll get no mans if you expect a whole love story like the movies" Sana said shrugging
"Whatever...maybe I'm just old-fashioned" Jihyo said in a grumpy tone
"I think you read too many fairytales unnie" Chaeyoung said
"No wonder I've had no luck" Jihyo said rolling her eyes
"Well...maybe instead of a guy~ you need a woman" Mina trailed her thoughts
"That's impossible. I'm straight remember?!" Jihyo said making a 'duh' face
"Alright let's call it a day! Remember you girls have a free day the rest of the week so feel free to roam around" Their manager suddenly shouted
The girls told their leader not to give up as they packed their things to head back to the dorm.

Next day...
Jihyo got up bright and early in the morning as she got dressed. She put on jeans as she wore a puffy jacket along with a white scarf since it was cold outside that there was snow and icicles.
The girls were still asleep except Mina who was on her phone sitting on the couch.
"I'll be at the bookstore call me if anything happens" Jihyo said
Mina nodded as Jihyo was out.

At the bookstore...
It was nice and quiet at the bookstore. Of course it's supposed to be but it really was quiet. There was almost nobody there.
That's why Jihyo likes going early in the morning. There's not a lot of people and she loves the vibes of the bookstore when it's empty.
Jihyo looked around looking at new books that recently were published. As she didn't find anything that interest her, she went to the romance section.
The leader looked through the books while walking sideways to read the titles. Not watching where she was going, she suddenly tripped over a book that was left on the floor.
Excepting herself to embarrassedly fall face plant on the floor she yelped while shutting her eyes.
Suddenly the leader felt arms around her. She froze as her heart started to beat.
Is this it?
No way...it's too cliche
What if it really is a handsome guy!
No no! Don't give yourself hope!
"Are you alright?" A soft voice asked
Well that doesn't sound like a man at all.
Jihyo slowly looked up only see a woman holding her.
Suddenly, Jihyo's heart started to beat 100x faster! She doesn't know quite why exactly...
Somehow she isn't disappointed it wasn't a guy. But why? Didn't she want a handsome guy to catch her???
"Ma'am?" The woman waved her hand in front of Jihyo's face
Immediately Jihyo was brought back as she stood straight, still in the arms of this beautiful woman.
"I-I uh yes...t-thank you" The leader said
The woman smiled as she finally let go of Jihyo.
No~
Jihyo doesn't know why exactly but she mentally frown when the woman let go.
"You should be more careful. Some people don't know how to put things away" The woman said chuckling
Jihyo barely knew what she was saying. All she did was admire her beauty. Her rosy cheeks, brown eyes, black hair that was tied into the most beautiful ponytail with the front strands hanging out, her glasses, and finally her black puffy jacket that looked just like Jihyo's.
"Anyway~ were you looking for a certain book?" The beautiful woman asked
"U-uh no not really heh...I-I was just looking for a new one to read" Jihyo nervously chuckled
She doesn't know why she feels like this. She's never felt this way towards a woman...so why her? I mean, it's not like Jihyo officially knew she was straight. She's never tried girls before so she had to be straight. Right?...
"Oh! Well if you don't me recommending you one, then I suggest reading
'A Bookstore Story' " The woman said as she handed the book to Jihyo
"T-thank you...I'll take a look at it" Jihyo said
The woman nodded as she also admired Jihyo. Her long hair that was curled, her scarf that made her cheeks look cute and puffy, that cute mole on her nose, and those beautiful big eyes.
As the two woman checked each other out and got lost in each other's eyes, they quickly cleared their throats realizing they've been staring at each other.
"Do you mind me asking your name?.." The woman asked
"Jihyo...I'm Park Jihyo"
"Cute name..I'm Chou Tzuyu"
The two women smiled at each other as they shook hands.
There was silence before Tzuyu decided to rip the bandaid.
"So uhh, I-I know this might be...weird or awkward, but, would you like to go out for coffee? O-or even a little bar for drinks?..." The tall girl asked
Jihyo was hesitant. Should she tell the girl she's straight? Well no. She doesn't even know if she likes girls. Why not give it a shot for once?
"I would love too...how does tonight sound?" Jihyo said
Tzuyu was surprised by the leader's answer but soon smiled.
"Tonight sounds great...Shall I give you my number?" Tzuyu asked
Jihyo nodded as they exchanged phone numbers.
"Well then...I'll be off" Jihyo said
"Uh me too...I'll text you later" Tzuyu said
The two smiled at each other before bidding their goodbyes, wishing the day could go by faster.
