Wedding Photoshoot

"So…your wedding photoshoot is tomorrow, isn't it?" Nol comments as he and Everest enjoy a soju drink at home in the kitchen.

Hiccup! "Yea, Belen should be sleeping by now."

"How is your relationship coming along? It's been a month since you asked her to be your girlfriend."

Everest accidentally burps, "…I don't even know anymore, man. Belen and I haven't even kissed despite going out for a month now."

Nol chuckles when he chugs a shot, "I find that hard to believe."

Everest exasperates, "I'm serious! I think she already senses when I'm about to kiss her. She shoves me away, and the mood quickly gets awkward. I end up having to soothe her or pretend I'm sleepy or something. Ha…" Everest is frustrated when he sighs, "I just want to move my relationship into the next step. Away from being friends."

Just then, Noah walks into the kitchen to warm up some water for tea. He ignores their presence, but he can clearly hear their conversation.
