‘You do realise that Jiyoung-ah and I exist, do you?’ Eeteuk asked as they entered their manager’s van. They just finished hosting ‘Kiss the Radio’ that day. Eunhyuk that was obviously taken aback by his leader question; quickly retorted.
‘Wha-what? What was that about?’ He ended with a rather awkward laugh; confused by Eeteuk random outburst.
‘So I supposed you didn’t.’ Eeteuk was looking out of the window and mumbled as if he was having a monologue with himself. Eunhyuk knows better after all these year, the cunning Eeteuk must have something in mind.
‘Ahhh hyung, tell me! Tell me!’ Eunhyuk was making whining sound; as if he didn’t know better, Eeteuk must be up to something.
‘Lee Hyukjae, just a second ago you were leaning towards the window looking like a besotted lovesick fool.’
Eynhyuk swore that he saw the eldest of the group rolling his eyes as if his statement was that obvious.
‘I felt left out that you seemed to be in your own world with a certain someone; and don’t think that I didn’t see you smiling like an idiot almost all the time and what’s more on air.’
‘What?!’ Feeling the need to defend himself and play stupid eventhough he clearly knew where is Eeteuk heading with this conversation. (And damn, why he couldn’t suppressed his laugh?)
‘Ooh, come on Hyukkie, Donghae told me that he saw you searching for ‘eunhyuk gyuri’ on the net.’
Damn that Donghae!
‘THAT…that was because Gyuri-ssi brings out the WGM topic. Soooo, soo…I was looking for the related articles.’ Eunhyuk answered, trying to keep his calm and God knows he probably the worst liar - Gyuri’s cool-ness must have rub on him.
‘Yaaah! Listen here Lee Hyukjae. I’m 28 this year. 28. Who are you think you’re fooling? And your voice falters obviously when you says “Gyuri-ssi”,’ Eeteuk said while mocking Eunhyuk way of saying ‘Gyuri-ssi’.
Mumbling a low ‘what does this have to do with age?’, Eunhyuk looked away from Eeteuk that was anticipating his reply.
Eunhyuk bit his lower lips. No use of denying it, if this continues on, Eeteuk surely won’t leave him alone for the day.
‘So, you know~ Then, what do you want to do about it?~’ Eunhyuk said it in a sing-song way while covering his already flushing face. God, his heart was beating faster than it should be with only a mere mention of her name.
Eeteuk looked at him with an ‘AHA’ expression, as if he was a child caught red handed while stealing cookies. ‘Nothing, nothing, this old hyung of yours just wished you guys would stop undressing each other with your eyes while you’re on air.’
Reflexively, Eunhyuk grabbed a pillow next to him and threw it over towards Eeteuk that was laughing his distinct weird laugh.
‘Perverted old man!’

Kang Jiyoung looked at the woman who self-proclaimed herself as the nation goddess, weirdly, a) because she looked so high that Jiyoung wouldn’t be surprised that she’s on crack or something and b) she looked way too happy. Which by knowing her all these year, Jiyoung knew that she wouldn’t let her guard down so easily.
‘Unnie, are you on crack or something?’ Jiyoung ask nonchalantly as they entered their manager’s van.
Gyuri looked at Jiyoung’s face then proceed to softly slap her hand. ‘Aish, this weird kid, are you crazy? Why’d I take drugs?’ And dare Jiyoung add that she was still smiling!
‘…unnie, you’re smiling non-stop from morning and even now you’re still smiling!’
‘Eh? So, that just means I am extremely happy.’ Gyuri innocently replied while making a puzzled face. Ah, really, eventhough Jiyoung is only 17, she could see why the goddess would be so happy. I mean, who couldn’t?; Jiyoung silently thought.
‘Unnie, goddess and extremely goofy happy didn’t fit in a sentence. And God knows how much you take care of your image.’
‘Jiyoung-ah, what are you trying to imply, then?’ Gyuri was still playing dumb and now sitting in her elegant-goddess-mode pose.
Jiyoung cracked into a fit of laughter. Jiyoung then proceed to shake Gyuri’s shoulder.
‘Haa unnie~ come on! I’m not blind you know! You guys kept staring at each other the whole time…’ Jiyoung trailed off, as if she was implying something.
‘Who is the ‘you guys’ you’re referring to, Jiyoung-ah?’ Gyuri tilted her head in that blank goddess infamous way of her.
Jiyoung understand that much that she didn’t want to prolong this matter no more. But, she couldn’t help to smile at the fact that her Gyuri-unnie is cuter this way.
‘Okay, okay, fine, I got it but I wished that Gyuri-unnie and Hyukkie-oppa would be happy forever, ever and after!’ Jiyoung added her cheeky smile at the end of the sentence and Gyuri flinched when Eunhyuk’s name was mentioned.
‘Ah omo, omo, you just flinched! Sooo I was right afterall.’ The youngest of Kara pouted as the leader, Gyuri try to hide her face by looking outside of the window.
Gyuri then tilted her head a few times, right, left, right, left; pretending that she didn’t understand what Jiyoung was trying to say but she burst out laughing after a few minutes of silent between them.
She blushed, then proceeded to laugh again and closed her mouth with the back of her hand while doing so. Jiyoung smiled knowingly and pinched Gyuri’s cheek because, really it wasn’t easy to see Goddess being giddy.

Eunhyuk walked nervously with a cup of coffee in his hand. He decided that there was no such thing as right timing, a time where she would sit alone without any sight of Jiyoung and Eeteuk is the time.
And it happened so to be right now. He took an involuntary gulp; feeling scared and shy and nervous all jumbled up in the same time. But what are the chances of her sitting alone, so he decided to just go for it.
Finally, a voice in his head chided.
‘Hey, Gyuri-ah!’ They had been using a less formal conversation lately.
‘Ah hey, Hyukkie-oppa!’ He swore that his heart still fluttered whenever she called him that.
‘Coffee?’
‘Nah, I’m waiting for my juice from my manager. Forgot to stop by this morning.’ Gyuri smiled softly. A thought crossed her mind at that time, why couldn’t I be my goddess self in front of him?
‘Ehem, I got a question for you.’ Eunhyuk sat on the vacant seat beside her and tried to look as cool as possible.
Gyuri face beamed unexpectedly, making Eunhyuk let out a small laugh. He cleared his throat and looked at her, straight in the eyes.
‘What does an anchovy need to do to get a Goddess?’
…
……
………
It took a while for that question to get through Gyuri. And when she realized what the connotation meant for them, she let out her bashful, unguarded, honest laugh unlike the elegant Goddess laugh persona she created for TV.
‘Omo, I mean, for real? Really Oppa?!’ Her expectant, dare he added gorgeous face made he smiled his gummy smile and laughed shyly at her question.
‘Yeah, really, what does an anchovy need to do to get a Goddess?’
Then she laughed again. Then he laughed as well.
‘Hmm let me think, I heard that some Goddesses like anchovy, so the question is what does a Goddess need to do to get an anchovy?’
She looked at him straight in his eyes, that piercing stare that made him want to smile what Eeteuk referred as ‘besotted-lovesick-fool’ smile.
‘Eh, how can you ask another question before I’m telling you the answer for my question?’ He teased her.
‘Then, tell me, what is the answer?’
‘The anchovy didn’t have to do anything since they were meant to be together.’
