Lay's POV
I'm just here in this corner of the room minding my own business, while the rest of the boys are complaining about school with Suho trying to calm everyone down.

Unlike them, I don't mind going back to school. Its not like complaining will rid us of having to go to school anyways.
It's compulsory.

From the corner of my eye, I saw Jenny slipping off and she was about to leave the dorm.
I wonder where she's going.

Never mind that, anywhere is better than being here in the noisy atmosphere.
Before Jenny left the dorm, I tapped her on her shoulder. She turned around and I mouthed her, asking if I could go with her as I was dying from the noise. She refused at first, but I was determined to leave the dorm and away from the loud members.
I gave her my pouty face hoping that she would bring me along. Seeing my cute face, she agreed and allowed me to come with her.
I of course, didn't forget to wear my mask. Wouldn't want anyone to recognise and swarm me now do I?

Once we were out of the dorm, we started chatting.

Me: "So where are you going?"
Jenny: "Well, I going to the mall to do some shopping before school tomorrow."
Me: "Oh. But what are you getting? I thought they already given is the things needed for school?"
Jenny: "It's a personal thing. You'll find out what it is tommorow."
Me: "Okay then, why so secretive?"
Jenny: "So that it'll be a surprise?"
Me: "Okay, I guess."

After that, we had finally reached the mall. She then proceeded into a random shop and I just waited outside the shop as I had nothing to buy. After what seems like hours, she finally came out with 2 bags in her hands.

She then faced me and asked, "Are you hungry, Lay?"

"Yeah, a little.", I replied.

"What kind of food are you craving right now? Western?  Japanese? Korean? Chinese?", she questioned.

I was craving for some Chinese food, but I don't know if Jenny will like the taste of chinese food.

As if reading my mind, she said, "Chinese food it is. I'm sure it will bring you a sense of nostalgia and don't worry, I can eat chinese food."

She then brought me into a Chinese restaurant and we sat at a secluded corner.

A male waiter came to us and said in chinese, “你好，我是橙红。我是你们今天的服务员。那美女，你想要点什么？”
（"Hi, I'm Cheng Ho and I'm your waiter for today. So, pretty lady, what would you like to get?"）

When the waiter called Jenny pretty, she blushed and giggled softly.
How dare he! Flirting with Jenny as if I'm not here.

Wait, she understood him?!

"我要一碗鱼粥和一盘鲈鱼，曹州蒸", she replied in chinese.
(Oh, I'll just get a bowl of fish finger and a plate of steamed sea bass please)

I was astonished. Especially when she spoke in perfect chinese. It doesn't have the weird accent and all her pronouncation and tone is correct.

The waiter then faced me and asked me dully I'm Korean, "What do you want, sir?"

So he thinks I can't speak nor understand Chinese?

Big mistake.

"我要点一盘水饺", I replied in Chinese. (I'd like to order a plate of steamed dumplings.)

The waiter looked super for a minute, but he complied and left, before leaving, he also winked and Jenny.

That was it.
It was the last straw.
I snapped.
I adruptly stood up, grabbed Jenny by her hand, and pulled her out of the restaurant.

"What are you doing? We haven't even eaten yet.", Jenny asked a little annoyed.

"The waiter just got on my nerves, treating me like I'm invisible.", I said telling half the truth.

Why half?
Well, because I'm not sure myself. I don't even know why I just suddenly decide to drag her out of the store.

"Oh."
"Not trying to offend you or anything but Lay, are you gay? And that you were jealous that the waiter was paying more attention to me than you so you got angry?", questioned Jenny.

"EH?! I'M NOT GAY! I am perfectly straight if you must know.", I shouted.

Really? Do I seem gay? Like what the heck...

"O-oh. Sorry... Even though I don't believe you.", Jenny apologised and muttered the last part softy to herself.

However, I heard her. Seriously, this girl...
But then again, I question myself, why did I get angry and drag her out of the restaurant?
Why was I annoyed that the waiter was flirting with her? It's not like I own her or anything...
Haiz.
Troubles.

"Well, since you decided to drag us out of the restaurant, we will just have to eat later then.", Jenny said.

"Yeah sure.", I agreed

After saying that, she then dragged me into the supermarket. She went to the seafood section and started looking at the sea bass. She started checking the fishes. Like lifting it's gills up and things like that. It looks to me as if she's trying to pick the best fish?

She then held up two fishes and observed them even more closely and inspected it before deciding to pick the fish on the right. Honestly, to me, the fishes all look the same, besides the size.
Another question though, Why is she getting fish?

I was going to ask her, but before  I was able to say anything, she packaged the fish and left for the vegetables section. Once again, she was inspecting the Chinese gale like it was some artefact and she then decides to get the one with quite a number of holes.

I then decided to ask her, purely curious on why.

Me: "Um, Jenny, may I ask why are you picking the vegetable with so many holes? It makes no sense."
Jenny: "Well, for one, those aren't just holes, they are made by the caterpillars that eats the leaves. With many "holes" it means that the vegetable is healthy and no pesticide is sprayed on it. Farmers usually start pesticides on the vegetables to prevent pests, like caterpillars and snail from eating their harvest. Pesticides are harmful to our body, so picking the one with holes equals no pesticide, which equals to it being a better quality and less harmful."
Me: "oh."

That's quite cool. Who knew choosing vegetables is so hard.
After getting a few more indigrients like ginger, spring onion, oyster sauce, chopped garlic, chicken and dried chili, we payed for the things and left the supermarket. I thought she was done, but nope, she wasn't. But to my surprise, she went into the store, Victoria Secret. She was shopping for undergarments.
Seriously, does she not remember my existance or what? Oh wait, I get it... She doesn't mind cause she thinks I'm gay?!

I was blushing like crazy under my mask as I quickly strode into the store, ignoring all the weird stares I was receiving, grabbed Jenny and pulled her out of the store.
How embarrassing...

While dragging her out, I heard her uttering, "I guess he's not gay afterall."

Yeah.
Now she gets it.
Finally.
And damn, I'm hungry...
I wanted to go eat at a restaurant,but Jenny refused and it was now her turn. She dragged me away from the restaurant and back to the dorm...
