A/N: 

Guys, this chapter is loooong—by that, I don't mean wordily long, it's 4900 in words, I mean it's looong, as in feels too lengthy and boring because of the dramatic effect in it and the long and heavy dialogues. It's dialogue packed. And also, 4900+ words is moderately long. I am sorry, just play some music while reading it.

And if you have tired yourself out reading the prev 2 chaps, this is where I warn you to stop. If you still continue, it's on you. Now Imma post it and go relax cuz it was just as boring and tedious to write and edit it. Thenks..

-----------------------------------

The Wise Monkey's POV:

"Commence," Sooyoung claps her hands.

"Would you mind starting with your part of the story, Ahn Soojin-ssi?" Hongjoong asks encouragingly.

Soojin thinks of an answer to give but Sooyoung beats her to it. "She doesn't trust you enough to talk about it that fast, you see, it's an emotional phase of her life, and emotions and her—"

"Sooyoung!"

Sooyoung ignores her sister. "—don't mix very well as it is, and now talking about it with strangers—well I won't say strangers, 'cuz y'all her fav idols— 'new people?' ...yeah talking with new people is difficult when she doesn't even talk with me about emo stuff, ya know. So she needs an affirmation that you've really been in the same situation as hers."

By now, Soojin's head is in her hands. 

"And don't mind me," the youngest in the room still continues. "I sometimes act as her introvert-slash-uncomfortable-situations translator, and since right now she's been in that mode, so..." She ends her sentence with a shrug.

As Mingi's about to ask her what that even means, Soojin speaks up. "Don't make me regret letting you in," the girl lowly mutters, eyes still on her lap as she still held her head in frustration. Mingi takes a second or two to figure out that it was meant for the sister.

He clears his throat. "It kind of hurt to know, you know." He looks around hoping to see a similar emotion on his bros' face. "that we are considered strangers."

"Should it?" Soojin looks up and meets her eyes with Mingi's, deadly and asserting. The boy gulps. She looks colder than he remembers.

"Uhh.." Sooyoung awkwardly begins. "Sorry that I presented it like that. You are not strangers to her, I affirm, she's still the most hardcore Atiny in the neighbourhood. She was nuts for you."

"Is," she frantically corrects almost immediately. "She is nuts for you all!"

"Ahh," San says trying to be understanding. "We understand. She was Daisy then, now she's Soojin. We're sorry, we keep forgetting, she has the same face."

Sooyoung feels bad for the guys. She's not even a fan, but she was a fellow human being with emotions, she didn't find it just of her sister to give cold shoulders to the boys like that.

"It's funny," Yeosang tries an attempt at making the mood lighter. "that you have an extroverted chatty sister when you're you know... But then I'm guessing you're introverted because Daisy was."

"Yeah, I know, right?" Sooyoung excitedly says. "We're the polar opposites, it's so drama-like. People always point it out about us."

"If the chatty extroverts in the room are done with the meaningless talks, can we move on? I'm sure you have work, or maybe just your routine, to get to. No offence, though. I really love seeing you live as a fan, but we should really hurry with the info," Soojin says.
