"Yes way! Let's go! Let's take my car!"

~~~~~

"There's so much buzz about the upcoming race!"

Haerin's voice cut through the minivan that the NewJeans members were situated in, as they made their way from their dorm to their latest photoshoot with Vogue magazine.

Haerin's statement was made as the minivan's radio was tuned to a radio show.

'And in other news, after a gap of 11 years, Formula One is making a comeback to South Korea as the Korean Grand Prix has been reinstated for the 2024 Race Season. Among the highlights of this year's season is the involvement of Y/N Yu, the first South Korean Formula One driver, racing for the Aston Martin Formula One team. Y/N Yu, the younger sibling of Karina from aespa, is set to make his Korean racing debut this coming weekend. His performance last year and latest success in the Bahrain Grand Prix are proving to be a challenge for Max Verstappen, the defending 3-time Formula One World Drivers' Champion.'

"Aren't you going to watch the race this weekend Hanni unnie?" Hyein asked from her spot in the backseat with Haerin.

"I am, Dani's going with me!" Hanni said from her seat in the middle with Minji, with Danielle situated in the passenger seat.

"I hope you two have fun!" Minji said whilst Dani smiled to herself.

"Oh my god! If it isn't the Bahrain Grand Prix winner!!!" Yu Jihye exclaimed as she stepped into the Yu household, giving Y/N Yu yet another bone-crushing hug.

"Hey Jihye noona," Y/N squeaked, wincing slightly from the hug. His sister was deceptively strong, "How's my favourite nurse?"

"Excuse me? I thought I was your favourite nurse?" the joking tone of his Mother, Yu Sunmi nee Lee, drifted in from the living room.

"You're my favourite pediatric nurse, omma! Jihye noona is my favourite psychiatric nurse!" Y/N quickly made his way, sitting next to his mother on the couch and leaning on her shoulder, his father chuckling from the dining room as he tended to his small succulent plant: a small gift from Y/N to celebrate his first ever podium finish back in 2023.

"How long are you going to stay in Korea Y/N?" Jihye asked, as she took the armchair that her father usually took, crossing her legs as she sagged into the leather. "Leaving immediately to Abu Dhabi right after the race?"

"I'm going to stay in Korea for a little longer, I got a full week until the next race after this week."

"Why don't you meet some of my friends?" Jihye enthusiastically asked, resulting in a loud groan from Y/N.

"Like I told Jimin noona, 'NO', please Jihye noona. I'm not interested in dating, let me build up my career first!"

"Now now, Jihye, let your younger brother be," their mother interjected, sitting up straight, as the sound of the oven timer ending sounded from the kitchen.

"That's dinner ready! Who's ready to be amazed by my cooking?" Y/N jumped up from the couch, moving to the kitchen as his family slowly, and smiling, made their way to the dining room, having missed the energy that the youngest child brought with him.
