If someone had told Itzy's younger selves about their future careers such as successful dance instructor, vocal performer, undefeated boxing champion and song producer. They would have laughed at you till their sides hurt, the joke was on them though. At the age of twenty four, Yeji eventually became JYP's official and professional dance mentor
Trainees look up to her as if some sort of inspiration for their future dreams, and the girl would have imagined her young self in their situations. Four years of college flew by as if it was still yesterday when she had her boyfriend by her side and holding her hand in the high school graduation
Along the way to college, they slowly grew apart, mainly because she was busy with school while Yeonjun is at the same, there was no communication with him for two years straight. Saying it didn't hurt would be the greatest lie in her life, truth was, it hurts her to cut any communication with him. It wasn't intentional nor willingly
She doesn't even know if they're still in a relationship after years of distance without even talking to each other, it did made her doubt if he had possibly found another girl in America. Jokes aside, probably he did
Mingi is now promoted to higher rank mentor and resigned in JYP to train with the trainees in America as well. Yeji had disregarded the fact he was her childhood friend... or at least that what she labelled it to be. It was rather a fruitless attempt to get information out of him, he never acknowledged the similar question from the past four years
Her brother who's still the dramatic llama they knew somehow got taller than before and more importantly for him, his 'beautiful' hair finally grew back. Well what did we expect? It's been four years. But ironically, he still has his wooden spoon to slay his sister if she ever cut his hair again
Throughout the years, it made her stronger, hence where she is currently now, "Ms. Hwang, what time do we practice tomorrow?!" The young trainees snapped her out of her reverie while nodding their enthusiastically, "It's Saturday tomorrow, you all should rest."
Normally, other trainees would leaped from joy that they can finally have they back laid but hers is different, "But... we want to learn something new tomorrow..." They all wailed horrendously making her laughed out loud, "Yeah, you're the best mentor ever!" All of them hollered in agreement
Giggling inaudibly, she moved on the platform to sit, "I maybe the best mentor like you all claimed to be but your energy and body needs replenishment. Too much out something is harmful, don't overdo yourself, okay?" The girls pouted but nodded either way
"Don't pull the long faces, we'll still meet next week. And I promise all of you, you're gonna enjoy what I planned for you." Claps and shouts resonated in the very identical room she used to train with. Her jet black hair cascade down her back like waterflow
"Alright, I'll see you all next week. Have a nice week everyone!" The youngsters mirrored back her goodbye as they departed in the room, "What a week!" Stretching her limbs, she also exited the room while hauling her back pack
Upon descending downstairs, she came across one of her trainees... before, "Felix! Oh my god! Congrats for your debut! Wow! Your group did an incredible performance today!" And safe to say the Australian Lee sure did debuted after years of training alongside other nine boys, "I wouldn't have achieved my dream if it wasn't for you."
The boy embraced her in a tight hug, "Oh, shush! You did all the hard work to yourself and for that! The dinner is on me!" His fist pumped in the air, hair that is slightly gelled backwards flung on his forehead, "Don't let Hyunjin know though. His appetite is bigger than a dinosaur."
"Duly noted, I have to go now! We still have an encore today, see yah!" He waved his hand and sprinted out of her sight. Yeji smiled widely, showcasing her pearly white teeth, "Damn! Days turn into weeks that turned into months... and finally years." She stepped out of the building with blissful sigh, admiring the landscape surrounding her
"I wish I can stay as a high school student, I don't really care about projects and homeworks as long as I don't get to be a childish twenty four year old woman fretting all over her rent this month!" Pulling her lips up in a pout, she proceeds to take the bus every night and plugged her airpods
Not until her phone rang, "Lia?! Wassup?! How's the performance today?!" She heard rumblings from the other line, "Hectic as usual but I enjoyed it!" Laughing, she made herself comfortable in her seat, "How's Haechan doing? Got any...?" Lee Haechan, who is apparently Jaeyun's brother from his father's side is her coworker in her job
"Stressful being with him, but guess what? He has a girlfriend now! My premonition was right! Yet again! Whooo! You owe me five dollars won for that!" The cat groaned, unfortunately, she was always correct about everything when it comes to shipping, "Fine, I'll come home late today though."
"Huh? Why? Just admit that you don't want to admit defeat and pay for your loss." She rolled her eyes at the false accusation, "I'll be there tonight, don't expect dinner from me! Alright?!" She promptly hang up before sighing heavily. Still the same old years for them if you might say
They all have their own apartments, each resides differently in town, the only difference is having no Shin Yuna in all those four years of existing, "Where the hell are you, Yuna?" She mumbled meekly, fumbling with the ends of her jet black hair. The youngest totally vanished out of thin air and never came back again
Even if so, they'd still welcome her in open arms if she ever thought of visiting them in the future. The bus stopped at a station and Yeji bolted out before entering the flower shop, "They'll like this color for sure." Voicing out her thoughts, she picked the set of white flowers and paid in the cashier
Luckily, there isn't much rowdy people around and she could focused in the music blaring from her ears. A minute later, she arrived at a cemetery in eerie silence, the dirt moaned from her weight as she waded through dozens of graves, "Here I am I guess." She sat in front of two particular grave stones and put the flowers on top of it
"Hey, mom! Hey, dad! I'm sorry I only visited you this year, I wasn't able to squeeze the time to visit you but at least I'm here, aren't I?" The cold breeze answered for her, "Hyunjin graduated with me in college with the highest degree, dad. I know you're proud of him as much as I am. And he's currently a successful singer and dancer."
Her fingers unconsciously drew patterns on the ground, "He wanted to be like me, a dance instructor but he's more dedicated to his current career and I'm happy for him." The tenebrous sky thundered from behind her, indicating a storm is brewing, "Why am I even talking nonsense... I wanna tell something to you, mom."
Her hands blindly grabbed a fistful amount of grass beneath her foot, "Just random teenage love, I met this boy when we relocated schools in the middle of our last high school years, he was my roommate— But don't worry, I'm sure you guys know we didn't do anything behind closed doors." Inwardly grimacing, she mentally face palm herself at one memory
"He was outstanding, smart and humble. And he's very thoughtful too, I thought we'd be just enemies until the end of the year. We hated each other at first glance, mom. Really unbelievable that he became my boyfriend eventually, we just clicked. I liked him at first then he liked me as well, then it suddenly turned into love. And he also gifted me two adorable puppies." She paused momentarily
"I'm not certain if it's really love I felt for him, I sound so selfish in making him stay with me and up until now I'm hoping he'll come back sooner or later. I can't stand the waiting, mom. I feel like I'm waiting for nothing, he's no longer reachable with his number and all his medias are deactivated. Why am I supposed to do?"
The flowers waved from the right direction while the other one is from the left, "I envied Chaeryeong and Taehyun's relationship. They're still together after four years, seems unproblematic yet here am I, so wretched in waiting for him." A stray of tear escaped her right eye
"Is it going to be worth it though? Or after he comes back, he'll simply told me he's engaged already with someone else and invite me in their wedding." That sounded harsh, self. I need to call down
"I-I don't w-what I'm saying, I got carried away from my emotions just there. I want him to come home already, he promised me he'll be back but when?" Her unanswered questions remained unanswered as it is, "I'm sorry for ranting these things, mom and dad. I missed the two of you, I really wished you were able to attend our graduation."
She stood up and brushed the dirt on her pants, "I'll be back as soon as I can. I want to talk to you guys more often than once in a year. I feel comfortable even though you're not here with me... I can still feel you two inside me. And hopefully when I came back, I'll introduce you to my boyfriend."
"Yeji!" Her ears perked at the voice that caught her undivided attention, looking over her shoulders, she saw a short haired girl with bangs sprinting towards her, "Lisa unnie!" She hollered her greetings and leaped to her arms, "Oh my Lord! I knew you were here when I didn't find you in the entertainment."
She smiled in coy, albeit sheepishly, "I miss them, unnie. I wish you could meet them in real life." The elderly girl combed her hair in soothing manner, "Probably in the next life but for now let's go. I have a great surprise for you!" She poked her nose while her teeth are perfectly aligned to a smile
Lalisa Manoban who's original from Thailand was actually the person who attended her graduation day in high school and in college, Hyunjin has remembered the time when she was also a dance instructor back in Daegu but got promoted in YG in Seoul
She's a notable dancer, well respected and humble, the elderly girl was the one who helped them be a dance instructor in Daegu and Hyunjin somehow came in contact to her before their graduation and eventually became both of their elder guardian
Smiling widely, Yeji sauntered back to her own apartment. Little did she know is the stranger looking down to her parents grave with pensive eyes
*****
"Well done, Chaeryeong! The fans liked the components of the music you made! I'm very impressed at the composition. It's sound unique!" The senior producer of JYP praised the younger one with a genuine smile, "It's nothing much, sunbaenim. I'd hope they'll continue to enjoy my works."
The once scarlet haired girl successfully became a song writer even though her expertise was dancing, she was more dedicated to be a producer and so she did try new things along her growth
"Of course they would! You're an exceptional producer! You did an outstanding job in your age than me actually." She giggled at the flash of compliments, "Ah, very well. You should go home early today. Tomorrow, we'll discuss something for the new debut girl group song. I'll see you tomorrow."
Nodding tersely, she bid her farewell and exited the building prior to Yeji, "Unnie!" The small voice made her snapped her neck to the right where she saw the girl from years ago sprinting in her direction, "Haeun! How have you been?! Did you got accepted?!"
The girl nodded her head vehemently, "I'll start next week! I'm so excited to train in here!" Chaeryeong chortled out a laugh as she guided the girl inside the building, "This is huge! Is Yuna unnie in here too?!" Her mood dropped off the charts and smiled forcefully, "She's not here, Haeun."
Pausing, she continued, "But she will return soon, do your best before she comes back. She'll be proud of you." The girl smiled cheekily and dashed inside the building, "I'm promising something that is empty." Sighing, she resumed for what she originally planned and left the JYP headquarters
"Now... Lia unnie promised us she'll have the dinner tonight..." She scrolled down to her contacts and dialed a number but it was unreachable until one particular guy sent her a weird photo of him, "What the hell, Yeosang?!" Just then, her phone beeped for another message
Speaker of Nonsense slash Stupidity🥴
What the hell did you eat again?🙄
I'm Pinocchio bitch!!!
.................
You ate Pinocchio then? 😬
THE FUCK NO!!!!!! ヽ('д´；)/
I'm Pinocchio today!!!!!!!!
Pinocchio's nose grew longer when he lies not bigger -_-
Same difference ¿?
Besides, my nose grew bigger when I state facts😎
You have a different definition for nonsense, do you?
IT'S NOT NONSENSE!!! I'M STATING FACTS
Oh, I get. You mean trash😌
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
You're a meanie!! You don't get my unique brain, do you?
Only stupids can get along with you
Then you're stupid😝
Who said anything about me getting along with you?
Your last word sweetie ͡° ͜ʖ ͡ –
Your wink gives thousands of goosebumps around my skin🥶
The power of Kang Yeosang, the Speaker of Facts!
Correction: Nonsense... Slash stupidity
It's called facts in disguise of stupidity😌
Who on Earth uses that phrase??? It's doesn't even exist🤦♀️
There's a lot of words that were not invented until I was born
Like handsome
Now I have to deal with your delusional ass. Just great
HEY! Weren't you like that around Taehyun before?
ˢᵉᵉⁿ ᶠⁱᵛᵉ ᵐⁱⁿᵘᵗᵉˢ ᵃᵍᵒ
I... sorry... Chaer (◞‸◟ㆀ)
LOL it's fine Yeosang, aren't you glad you're finally gonna have him?
It's different, Chaeryeong. I was only teasing
And I have my limitations
Plus I like you more with him than her
I know, High Pitch
It's high note not high pitch🙂
Sure, Reason at the High Pitch
It's RESONATING AT A HIGH NOTE!!!!!!
Simple term would be Yeosang
Nonsense it is😇
Seriously!!!! I'm asking nicely here!! How are things with my babe Taehyun?
Babe? Really?? You never change do you?
Of course not, because there is no story far more expensive of dollar won than Yeosang to his Taehyun💗
I should have taken the career as a poet
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
That sounds very very very wrong
Then steal your man from me before she does!!!!
I don't have anything to do with Taehyun anymore, Yeosang
There's no hard feelings when we broke up recently
Yeah.... Taehyun really handled the situation quite well
But aren't you a bit guilty for what happened??
Why would I be? Yeosang, he brought this to himself
And I'm not blaming anyone, I understand as long as he won't push it too far!!
Yeah I'm aware, Chaeryeong but she doesn't deserve him!!
Who does anyway?
Chaer, he may be my friend first but I know he's in the wrong and you should enlighten him
What can I do?? He already chose a path for himself, Yeosang
Yes, he did but what are you going to choose?
Clearly my own path as well. No hard feelings on him
I already moved on
For two months???
You guys are in relationship for four years straight
It's pretty much impossible for you to move on that quick
That goes the same for him too
Yeosang please don't push it
I'm slowly recovering from the pain actually
I'm really sorry, Chaeryeong
I mean it would have been better if I can have him in the end though—
Haha. Very funny, high pitch
It's HIGH NOTEEEEEEEEEEEE
Death Note? Okay
I don't wanna talk about him, alright?
My friends still don't know what happened between us
I think it's better off that way until they find out for themselves
Isn't keeping secrets to your friends a bit baddddd~~~
I'm a bad guy~~~~ Duh!
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Yes I know it's bad but they'll understand eventually
┐(￣ー￣)┌
At least tell me Taehyun is in good hands against that bitch
Then I won't tell you
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Don't be such a crybaby, grow up and face reality, high pitch
Taehyun can handle himself just fine
What about you? Can you handle yourself without him?
A lump was stuck around her throat. It maybe means one thing, he can handle himself because they're break up didn't affect him as much as it affected her. Scrolling up to their conversation, a stray of year fell from her eyes until it transitioned into laughter
"This guy never change!" She couldn't help but to burst in laughter though with how ridiculous he looks at the filter, "Damn big nose." Putting back her phone, she strolled downtown and immediately headed back to her apartment when her phone rang
"Chaeryeong! Let's hang out in the nearest fast food restaurant tonight! It's been awhile since we hang out!" That their leader who sounded frantic somehow, "Okay... why all of a sudden? Don't you have a shift tomorrow as well like me?" Yawning, she sat on the bench
"Nope! Weekends are my days off like the others! Come on! Just this once!" Yeji doesn't need to persuade her to come, as she subconsciously sighed in defeat and agreed either way, "That's great! You can bring Taehyun with you if you want but I highly suggest not since we don't want to be third wheels."
She went to speak but the cat leader already hang up, "But... We're not together anymore..." Mumbled the girl meekly, "I'm gonna get ready for later I guess... but I wanna fetch Ryumin unnie." Gnawing her bottom lip, she sprinted to the bus station and transported to Ryujin's training center
The building looks more unnerving and emits those negative vibes, she immediately caught the glimpse of the girl she's looking for upon entering the stadium. Chaeryeong stepped closer surreptitiously and tap her sweating shoulder, "Hmm? Chaeryeong?" If there's anyone who change in appearance, it's definitely Ryujin who has long hair after four years
"In the flesh. Are you free tonight? Yeji unnie asked me to hang out with her after months!" She put her hair in a high ponytail and shrugged, "It's only been a week for the two of us."
"At least say yes to the damsel in distress." Rolling her eyes she wiped her sweat and took off her boxing gloves before flipping her hair, "Then let's go! Where should we go?!"
"Hmm, maybe in Seoul I guess. Nearest fast food restaurant near her entertainment." After what happened back in high school, Ryujin never forgot what had happened on the very graduation ceremony. Her knuckles came out bruised and battered that it actually took months to heal
But those weren't the ones who instilled so much pain in her, it's due to the fact she never seen him again. Or worse, he never looked at her, at least that's what Jeno told him a few years ago, "How's the preparation?"
Ryujin snorted and flicked her once long hair, "I'll win that match for sure." Chaeryeong snickered at her expense, "I didn't say you won't. You never lost before but being the undefeated champion might be hard to handle, eh?"
"Nah, I only trained once in a week. Plus Jeno is also an undefeated champion, and he basically taught me weird techniques how to punch someone." She faked shivered and hastened her pace, "Let's just take that bus and we can go."
About an hour later, they arrived in Seoul and stepped out of the bus but Ryujin hesitated for a moment though, "Ryu? Aren't you coming?" She pursed her lips and casted her gaze down, "Hey! He's not here, Ryujin. That dickhead won't hurt you again."
"I know, I... just don't feel like going back in here multiple times in a year. I hate this place but I also adore it since this is where I graduated high school and met a lot of friends." The girl eventually stepped out of the bus before it automatically closed as they walked together in the entertainment
The only fast food restaurant near them is at their right which they spotted two of their friends, "Guess they're earlier than us." They both approached the two squabbling girls, "I won the bet! Right?! Now where's my five dollar won?!"
"You already have it, cheater!" Both of the girls face palm themselves as they dragged each of them inside, "You two always gamble small amount of money because of the love life of other people up until now? I can't believe the two of you." Chaeryeong hummed in agreement
"Blame Yeji. She couldn't admit her loss at our bet about Soobin confessing to me. Ha! Serves you right!" She stuck her tongue out which rewarded her a scornful glare, "Shut up! At least you two are in good terms."
Chaeryeong shuffled her feet from under the table, "And it will stay that way, sweetheart. Friends in good terms forever!" The girl crush beelined in the cashier to order their food and without a minute, they're already digging in to the hundreds of buffet in front of them. Metaphorically speaking
"Who is that by the way, Ryujin unnie?!" Chaeryeong queried all of a sudden, "Who is what?" Her words were slightly muffled due to her inflated cheeks because of her foods
"The guy that has been mentoring you. I've seen him in some occasional times but I didn't really know what's your connection to him." The girl raked a hand in her hair, "I already met years ago when he still has green hair, he goes with the name Choi Hyunsuk."
"Hmm, never heard of him before but I think I did saw him in our graduation in high school. He seemed a brilliant guy to me." Commented the leader, "Yeah I thought so too but we're only acquainted so I never knew."
The cat eyed girl suddenly asked randomly, "So, I thought you're going to invite Taehyun?" The youngest girl gripped her chopsticks a bit tighter than necessary, "Uh... unnie, the thing is... we're not together anymore." Almost instantly, Lia's drink was spilled all over her face, "What the heck, Lia?! That's so disgusting!" Chastised the eldest
The victim on the other hand wiped the liquid off her face, "I'm sorry! But please take back what you said or tell me this is a prank!" Chaeryeong was wordless at the inquiry, "Oh my god... what did he do?! Did he cheated on you after four years?! When did this happen?! Who is she?!"
"Hey! Hey! Calm down, Ryujin. It's Taehyun we're talking about, I'm sure there must be a valid reason why they both decided to break up." The latter was obviously fuming inside but complied anyway, "It's not exactly break up. We're in a bit of tight situation that's why we agreed to take a break with our relationship... but it really seems like we broke up."
The three other girls glanced at each other with wary looks, "Are you alright? Do you guys still talk?" She slowly shook her head with dejected sigh, "He make it look like I'm a distraction to him that's why he even persuaded me to cut any communication we have."
"That doesn't sound like Kang Taehyun at all." Ryujin perched an eyebrow at her, "What does that mean? Just because he's smart doesn't mean he can have his mistakes and selfish decisions?"
"No, but let's hear out whatever she has to say." Huffing a breath, she motioned her to continue, "Actually, can we just focus on eating our dinner? I don't really have the energy to narrate about it."
They all ate in silent until Lia broke it, "Don't we have any leads where Yuna might be? This is so messed up already. There has to be something that had happened to her."
"I don't know, Lia. If that's that case then why she didn't call us? Does she still considered as friends? It's been four years, Lia. Let's accept the fact she may not come back for the very least I guess."
"Don't lose hope guys come on. Yuna ain't that shallow to suddenly ignored us." No one dared to utter another word as they ate their lunch silently... Oblivious at the fiery red haired girl ordering her food in the counter

*The Next Day
8:09 A.M — Friday
"This is against the law and you know it. Surrogate mothers have no right to claim it's their child. They signed a contract and agreed established the parenthood but not the motivation to raise them!" There are at least less than twenty people who heard his judgement for the victim and case he was holding, "I strongly disagree!" The other party boomed around the room
"Mister Huening, this surrogate mother gave birth to their child, every law has that rights to endow them the responsibility to also raise the baby!" The youngest lawyer straightened his spine and fired back with harsh reality
"Contrary to the assumptions that underlie the proposition case, surrogate mothers who claimed to have rights with the child is not a fundamental human right. Surrogate has rights, the right to keep the child is not one of them. Once legal parenthood is established, the surrogate has no legal rights to the child and she cannot claim to be the legal mother."
The man in a suit stood up but he was held back with his comrades, "Mr. Huening, you may sit down." With deceptive calm expression, he clasped his hands on his table and looked directly at their eyes in warning,
"The law is pretty simple in here and Mr. Huening got it right. Surrogate has no rights to claim it's their child. I must dismissed that you don't get to have the rights to claim it's your child." [(A/N: This is inspired by the K-Drama 'The Two Mothers' I really like that story a lot)]
The youngest member of TXT nonchalantly pocketed his car keys once the small hammer for judgement collided with its partner, he immediately stood up and left the room with his briefcase
Never once in his life he would have thought he would be labelled as the legend prosecutor in the country, years of experience with his parents being lawyers made him compelled to believe that lawyer is also his dream to achieve but boy he was damn wrong
"Mr. Huening, there's a call from the office." His secretary handed him his phone and accepted the call, "Sir, there's another case requested for you to hold today. Would you like to see, sir?"
Humming in response, he averred, "I'll come in the office later and read the case. What's the main concept of it?" The shuffling of papers were heard from the background, "It's about illegal adoption, Sire." His eyebrow arched, "That's new and interesting. I'll come in the office in three hours."
He ended the call and strapped in his car before zooming in the distance, until his phone rang again, "Hyuka! How have you been cousin?!" His mind went in short circuit at the voice and impression, "Minhee?! What the heck man?! It's been awhile!"
"Awhile? It's been years since I've called. I have been busy with my current job lately and I couldn't seize the chance to call you." Kai chuckled dryly, "It's no problem, at least you called. How's your life in there?! Wherever you are."
"I'm currently in Netherlands after I spent my vacation days in the Philippines, just fixing some shits and all of that. Typical Kang Minhee's life." A roguish grin etched his lips, "Since high school, eh? That must have been suck, your life sucks ain't gonna lie on that."
He heard a small rustling of fabric from the other line, "Hmm, I was wondering if you could visit me in here I guess that is not happening so soon. But I'll be coming back to Korea next week, I need a warm greeting from you."
"You can count on that, don't expect me to throw an extravagant welcoming party though. Party is not my thang, so exclude that to your expectations." Minhee's distinct chuckled defiled his ears, "When it comes to you, I never raised my expectations high in the mountains. But anyway, I'll see you in there!"
The beeping sounds ensued and he focused his gaze on the road. His friends are certainly laid back in there current jobs and he didn't want to disturb them and so he only drove at the nearest restaurant to buy his sisters their dinner. He didn't expect the bear to be in there as well though
"Beomgyu hyung?" The boy glanced over his shoulders and smiled breathtakingly at his youngest friend, he was wearing a hoodie that casted shadows on his forehead, making him look compromisingly ominous, "Kai, what are you doing here?"
"Oh, figure I'll stop to drink and get my sisters their dinner. What about you?!" The cashier handed him his order and beckoned the youngster to get his food first. Obliging, he placed his tray across the table with him, "Still having troubles with your family?"
The elder grinned sheepishly before nodding, "Are you psychic or what? How come you always know what's going on right pass through my facade?"
"I don't need psychic abilities, it's written all over your face, especially the black patches under your eye." The boy chuckled as he began to eat his food, "Do you need my help? It consists of many political matters, I think I can help you honestly."
"It's fine, Kai. It's my mess anyway so I'll deal with it on my own." But the prosecutor is at the best in detecting a lie, "But I'm your friend, aren't I? And you know friends are supposed to support each other and help them when they're at need." Beomgyu shot him a lopsided grin, "I'm telling you, Kai. I'll ask for your help when I need it in due time."
"Whatever you say, are you still going to hide away from us?" The boy leaned against his chair before biting his bottom lip, "I can't risk being in the public whenever it pleases me, I don't wanna put any of you in danger. But today is different that's why I'm seizing this moment."
His hand stopped from functioning, "Hyung, you seriously can't keep this up. Your friends are sick worried of you and presumably I'm the one who can actually talk to you in real life."
"I know what I'm doing, Kai. Please trust me and don't tell them about this. I'll do everything I can to stop this but please don't let anyone know about this." The desperation in his tone couldn't be ignored and so he nodded his head in defeat, "But if something went wrong, you can't blame for spilling all the beans!"
He smiled gratefully at him and hastily ate his food and exited the building quickly, "I still don't know the reason why do you have to do that with Ryujin noona. Now everyone hates you..."
The aftermath of the ceremony turned out to be disastrous when Jeno almost lost his shit in punching him square on the face, "But I'm not in the position to judge." Muttering incoherent words, he stood up and carried the paper bags containing foods and everything
"Hmm I guess that is everything I need to—" He suddenly bumped into someone that causes the foods to fell off his hands and unfortunately stained his suit, "What the... —?!"
Then the voice he hasn't been hearing for years infiltrated his eardrums like a broken record, "Oh my god, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!" The rest of her words were drowned in his mind as he glanced up with quivering lips and saw the mop of fiery red hair frantically wiping the stain in his clothes
"I'm really sorry!" Different hair color but still the same, she grew a few inches taller but still the same, nothing changed to get all. The necklace around her neck resembled that it is indeed her as he immediately scooped her in his arms, almost sobbing, "Y-Yuna... I-I thought we l-lost you... H-hell please don't make this a dream!"
He completely choke the life out of her and caressed her identical features before she left. Fuck I can't believe she's actually back! After four years! Fudge she didn't change at all! I feel so much euphoric feeling in me! "What happened to you? Why didn't you call us?! Where were you?!"
His enthusiasm and celebration suddenly morphed in bafflement when the girl slowly reeled away from his hold with an awkward smile. The glint in her eyes... was the identical expression like how the first time they met, "I'm sorry, mister. There must be a mistake. But... should I know you?" Motherfucker!
... Of Book One everyone
Don't sue me just yet at the horrible cliffhanger and ending
Anyone needs tissues? Hopefully you don't need to😭🤣
