Chaeryeong works at an ice cream parlor
For the past one and a half years, Ryujin has brought all her different girlfriends there.
One day, Ryujin came alone.
Ryujin hurriedly put the lunchbox into her bag and replied with a loud yes. She was currently on a call with Yeji and was about to leave the house.
As expected, Chaeryeong didn't return home last night. Ryujin could only hope that that uni girl she met wasn't part of some mafia gang.
[I'm leaving the house now. Do you want me to grab anything?]
[It's fine. I want to do some extra practise before we leave at 10 since the competition starts at 12.]
[Okay! See you, honey!]
[See you, stay safe on the road, okay?]
[Promise.]
Ryujin hung up and rushed down the stairs.

Ryujin stared at her phone for awhile before tucking it inside the pocket of her jeans.
you'll see her there.
With a nervous sigh, she put on her helmet and started the engine.

Ryujin entered the studio quietly, rushing over to Yeji sitting by the speakers on the floor.
When the younger remained silent, Yeji asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Ryujin mumbled.
Yeji decided not to push her any further and leaned into her.
"You can tell me anything, okay?"
Ryujin nodded.
Yeji kissed the back of her palm and stood up. "We have an hour or two before the bus arrives. Let's practise first, okay?" the team agreed and started stretching.
"Yeji ah?"
The said girl turned to Ryujin.
"I love you so much," the latter said, hands playing with the chains cuffed on her jeans.
"I love you too," Yeji replied, kissing the tip of Ryujin's nose before returning to supervising the team while warming up. The younger felt slightly better and quickly started on her stretches.
After two rounds of practise, the group cleaned up and entered the bus.
Yeji and Ryujin sat next to each other, the latter grasping Yeji's hand tightly.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
"I- I'll tell you later," Ryujin stuttered. Yeji nodded and looked out the window.
