September 25, 2022 *Sunghoon POV*

It was one year since my first date with Jiyeon.

One year since I fell in love with her.

I remember the dress she wore, and how happy she was.

And when I took it off to put on a hoodie for her because she was cold.

Did she ever love me?

It'd been over a month since we broke up, and it felt like it was just yesterday.

Ever since that meeting, it felt like my feelings were just growing stronger.

She would come out of her room and stare at the stars, or send birds and spells to the sky.

Sometimes, she'd even fly around.

Going through our old instagram messages from before she moved here hurt worse.

She would tell me that I was cute, how she'd love to meet me, and she admired my parent's work.

Now, it was 4 in the morning and I was sitting in bed, crying.

From the looks of it, she was crying too.

The moonlight was just enough to illuminate her face and I saw her tears.

She waved to me, then closed her curtains.

Oh Jiyeon, I love you so much.

Yeji and Jiyeon were walking through the hallways together.

"So, are you guys ever having another meeting?" Yeji asked.

"He hasn't spoken to me since, so not likely." Jiyeon slammed her locker.

"Yesterday was your one year, are you sure he doesn't want to talk to you?" Chaeryoung popped in.

"Jesus, Chae." Yeji jumped.

"Sorry." Chaeryoung smiled.

"It was supposed to be our one year, but it wasn't." Jiyeon muttered.

Sunghoon passed by with Jungwon and Hyunjin, glaring at Jiyeon.

"What the Hell did I do?" She asked.

"He's just upset with everyone right now." Jungwon whispered.

She nodded, "go ahead."

Jungwon sped off to find Sunghoon.

Jisoo and Lisa came sprinting up the stairs.

"You won't believe what our spies just sent us." Lisa whispered.

"Oh lord." Chaeryoung sighed.

Jisoo handed Jiyeon her phone, "just watch it all."

The video began to play, showing the army of 200,000 marching.

It changed to a group of children, who were crying for their parents to not leave.

"Half of them don't want war." Jiyeon handed the phone back.

"They want peace, K wants war."

"That's not even the worst of it. Children have been killed as threats for their parents to join." Lisa said.

"Meeting scheduled for after school." Jennie said.

"Tell the tribes to come." Jiyeon continued walking.
