1. Moving out

  _____________________________________

| January 3rd, Friday, 2020|

  The end-of-the-year parties were over and the four members of FLASHLIGHT were back in their dorm, well, back for a day. They were moving out to a better place since the debut was only a few months away.

 The "better place" was actually at the same building, but one floor higher. The living room was a bit bigger, but they still had two shared rooms and only one bathroom - they had never complained about it, though, they're four girls who barely spend time at home, there's no need for something fancy.

"Now that we moved up one floor, do you think we'll meet TWICE more often?"

  Remi asked, excitement visible.

"They live on the fourth floor, Remi, we'll be on the second one."

 The leader explained, slightly pitting the fangirl.

"Who knows? Maybe we can try to be friends with them! It's easier now that we're not just trainees anymore."

"Ask Rima, she knows Sana."

  The maknae entered the conversation.

"You know Sana!?"

  Remi quickly turned to the one who was holding a box.

"I mean, don't we all?"

"You know what I mean!"

 She whined.

"We trained together for a few months, she probably doesn't remember me."

 Annie shuggred, going to the front door.

"How can someone forget you!?"

  Remi asked frustrated, making the others chuckle.

"Thanks, Rem."

 "You're welcome, now introduce me to San- oh, hello!"

 She stopped after catching a male figure at the door.

"Hello!"

 Changbin waved at the three, then looked at his friend, getting the box she was holding.

"Where?"

"Oh~, my friend is strong!!"

  Annie joked, but inside her heart was skipping beats.

"I'll go with you."

  She grabbed a light suitcase and entered the elevator.

"The second floor? You're taking the elevator for the second floor?

  He asked astonished.

"I'm not gonna make you go up the stairs with this weight!"

"Aw, how thoughtful! I'd pinch your cheeks right now if I wasn't holding this."

Thank you, box.

 "Oh, Changbin! You came to help too?"

  FLASHLIGHT's female manager, Kang Yujin welcomed them.

    Kang Yujin was a rather young manager, 29 years old, but she had been working at JYPE for almost 10 years now - ever since she was an intern. Therefore, she saw Haerim arrive at a very young age, not knowing much about the language, struggling to fit in, and also how the girl was left aside every time there was a group preparing to debut. When she heard the news the little girl was finally debuting, she practically begged to the planning team to let her be their manager.

"Too?" "Too?"

 The two asked and, after hearing them, someone came to the door.

"Chan!" "Chris!"

"Hey there, kids."

  He smiled shyly.

"You're always busy, how come you...?"

"Ay, I have some time to help my hoobae*."

|*someone with less experience; a junior, usually younger|

Annie pouted.

"Thank you!"

I should ask if he still talks with Sana so I can get at least an autoghraph for Remi.

"Alright, let's get this sh- job done!"

  She changed the word as soon as the manager gave her the look.

 Annie would usually talk in English with Bang Chan and, because of that, she was proned to curse.

"I was going to say ship! In Canada we say that! You know, 'let's get this ship sailing'!"

  She shameslessly lied.

"Yes, Haerim, of course."
