Anna walked into the restaurant and saw Hoseok and Yoongi already seated and enjoying a drink. She waved at them and hurried to their table.

"It's so good to see you guys," she gushed and kissed both of their cheeks.

"Wow." Hoseok stared at her. "You look amazing, Anna. Are you sure people won't start running over here to see you?" He glanced around the restaurant.

Yoongi nodded. "Yeah. Is it okay for you to be out in public?

She gave a little laugh. "Yes. It's not like I'm famous. I've barely finished my first movie. People have no idea who I am." She paused when the waiter came by to take her drink order.

Hoseok raised an eyebrow at her mineral water request. "You're not drinking with us?"

She sighed dramatically. "Alas, no. I must maintain my innocent image." She held a hand to her heart.

"Uh, what?" Yoongi asked, looking confused.

She laughed out loud. "Kidding! I just have to be careful about what I eat and drink. I can't gain even one pound until reshoots are done."

"What? Really?" Hoseok stared at her.

She nodded. "To avoid continuity errors. You know. I can't look thin in one scene and then look plumper in the next. As soon as we're done filming, Joonie is taking me out for a big meal."

The two men smiled.

"So, things are going well with Namjoon?" Yoongi asked.

Anna nodded. "Oh, yes. He's wonderful to me. He's my biggest supporter. He's always finding ways to help me out with the role, with the producers. I feel so spoiled sometimes. He's great."

"I'm glad." Hoseok nodded. "You deserve to be pampered and spoiled. You're a great person, Anna. I love seeing you happy. I hope you'll give him a chance."

Yoongi murmured in agreement.

She sipped her mineral water. "Sure. On another note, I can't believe that Jin hasn't called me. Why wouldn't he call me or at least text me? By now he must know that he was wrong to say those things to me. He should've at least called to say he's sorry or whatever."

"I can't believe he's just ignored you all this time." Yoongi frowned. "Hasn't even bothered to apologize. Doesn't sound like the Seokjin I remember. That Seokjin was your best friend."

Hoseok clicked his tongue. "Back then he was her friend. Now he's someone else's little lover boy. He doesn't care about friends anymore." He patted Anna's hand. "You're better off without him. Kim Sucky Jin doesn't deserve another thought from you."

Anna looked down sadly. "I just miss my friend."

"Shit. Don't look up, Anna." Yoongi's voice sounded strained. "Don't look around."

"Why?"

Hoseok was staring behind her. "I don't fucking believe it. Speak of the devil."

Seokjin walked quickly through the dining room accompanied by two other men. They were being ushered to a private area at the back of the restaurant.

Anna looked up just as Seokjin and his friends passed her table. He was so handsome. It seemed that a spotlight was shining on him as he walked through the room. At her gasp, Seokjin stopped and looked around. He gave a start when he saw her. For a moment, he stared as if he couldn't believe she was there. His eyes blinked rapidly.

Anna averted her eyes. Her heart was racing, wondering if Jin would finally apologize. She waited, wondering if he would say something to her---anything. She missed her friend. Hoseok and Yoongi stayed silent. The moment stretched out uncomfortably. When she finally looked up again, her friend was gone.
