The video call has ended after an hour of talking about all the teas in the industry and it was a mess. Somi, Soobin and Seungmin were like the only ones who were advising, while Sunghoon and Sunoo were fighting and Sungchan was just busy admiring Shotaro's face from the video call. I missed them so much, and I still find it funny how we're such a random group of friends since we don't really have much in common except we're idols and we have the letter s as our first letter in our names. But, I'll forever be thankful to them since they were very trustworthy in this industry where it's common to be two faced.

"Are you alright? You've been staring at this blank wall for a few minutes now," Mulan asked me, as she ruffles my hair. I gave her a weak smile before telling her what's troubling me ever since our debut showcase.
