The late spring, early summer air that always came at the end of May was warm on the skin─the perfect weather. College finals have just finished and the school year has been concluded, meaning summer was finally here. To decompress and prepare for their beach trip that afternoon Guest is going to the mall with her friends: Nisha, Hazel, and Tuski.
However, after they've gotten their boba tea from the new place Nisha found they're wandering around with a few shopping bags when Nisha and Guest notice a group of guys─Yeonjun, Kai, Nolan, and Mateo─at the food court. Immediately Nisha is interested and pulls Guest with her to get a closer look, leaving Hazel and Tuski to reluctantly follow.
At the table Yeonjun and Nolan are in a deep debate on what churro topping is better while Mateo is on his phone, replying to his team group chat, then Kai was watching Yeonjun and Nolan, giving his opinion every so often.
They haven't noticed the girls yet, at least not until Nisha trips and yelps loudly, nearly pulling Guest down with her. When Nisha goes down she leaves Guest standing there with wide eyes and mixed with mortification and concern when all four of the guys as well as other onlookers peer over.
