「 twenty 」

"Am I really allowed to join you?" The youngest asks in english, the hesitancy is audible to the audience, the epitome of doubt and fear can be concluded in her voice. "I also look like trash right now, literally."

"Nonsense, you're still cute whatever you do baby." Jia promised genuinely, cheering the younger up as much as she could. "Jenashi join us already please." She asks oh so lovingly, getting backed up by the other girls to convince her to have fun with them.

After a few seconds, the three then witness the maknae opening the door silently; getting all bashful even if she isn't seen on the camera frame. She then clarifies is she can really be seen right now, not that her manager or any staffs restricted her to do so, but it was her decision to lie low and avoid the crowd; wanting to live in peace and think by herself for a couple of days without pretending she was happy, in which she now questions more often along with all the lingering doubts in her mind.

The three eonnies glanced over the youngest smirking, sly gazes over the suh to see she wore the familiar baby blue hoodie that Doyoung gave her, the exact hoodie that the kim have when he went to chicago for the tour and sleepover, letting Jena keep it since he's aware of how much she misses her own home. The girls weren't that fond on the relationship of the two until now but wouldn't deny how adorable the thoughtful gesture. Kyun and Jia shake their heads and ask the suh to sit beside Chaewon on the floor, hoping the two wouldn't argue again like they always do.

Jena shrugged and followed the instructions of the olders, sitting beside Chaewon and hummed when her ears caught a muffled sniff from her. She closes her eyes to avoid being awkward from the kim and exhales longly, the headache she has from a hangover was killing her and it shows, she wonders why Chaewon was alright after last night. Maybe she forgot what happened because they were drunk, severely lightheaded to care to wake up the other girls from crying last night.

And the two concluded to not ever get drunk when it's just them ever again.

The suh removes all the upcoming thoughts from last night and distracts herself by greeting the viewers, being coy and reserved as she says hello to the fans. After being alone within herself and thoughts, she can highly agree how therapeutic it is to get away from the crowd and for the very first time, she was satisfied to be relieved without her hobby of spending with her fans, reliving her old hobbies to cope from the ongoing stress and weariness she feels. It's not that she hates her fans (it was the mere reason she still gets supported and loved) but Jena couldn't delete the fact that most of them try to oust her out from the group and turn against her back when her scandal scattered all through the internet, receiving hate and death threats on the fandom she have without even trying to hear her side of the story.

The four lovelies spend their precious time answering the queries of the viewers, chuckling and laughing off to the wittiness they're reading, missing this pretty feeling of doing fan service. While Kyun and Jia were mostly on their phones and answering some of the questions on the screen, the two wouldn't deny they were eyeing on Chaewon and Jena, who were resting their heads against one another, holding hands beneath the camera frame. The two olders were surprised to see them quiet and clingy but didn't have the urge to fuss about it and let them be, diverting their attention back to the phone.

It didn't take long for them to be asked for spoilers for the upcoming comeback, Jia glaring at the Lee and reminding her she'll get scolded if she again gives spoilers. Kyun defended herself that she won't give spoilers about herself and deadass gave a spoiler about Jena instead. "Jena did so great with her acting and she has a runaway groom at the mv."

Jena tilts her back to face Eunkyung, eyes wide as saucers at the big spoiler she gave, chuckling nervously as she has a hand on her chest. "Eonnie, that's too much." she groaned, couldn't believe the Lee dropped one of the main points of the music video. "You're always too much when giving spoilers thats why manager eonnie keeps scolding you.'' The maknae nagged at the older, a hand subconsciously placed on top of Chae's thighs, the two youngsters steal a glance at one another before Jena looks away to divert her eyes back to the queen of spoilers, Lee Eunkyung.
