(TXT - Our Summer)
The screen is playing their vlog-
No matter where you are, no matter what season
If we're together, feel like summer
The instruments are changed to acoustic setting with only the wooden guitar played by Beomgyu and a cajon for Hueningkai, they sing the encore song while waving at MOA. Flower confetti showers the stage at the last verse.
They swallow back the tears that linger in their eyelids, each takes turn to talk about their feelings for today.
MOA are sobbing when the members finally have to leave the stage although none of them want to.

TXT's POV
As soon as they enter the back stage, the boys receive a round of applause from all the staff.
'Woohoo- You guys nailed it!'
Complied by their manager, not sure who started first but the members let out the tears that they have been holding back for, opening their arms for a group hug.
'This is just the beginning... We still have a lot of promotional activities. Fighting!' Leader Soobin says, breaking their hug so all of them can freshen up themselves.
They don't really have much time to kill since the other day, they will be on media again.
As Beomgyu hops in their manager's van, he scrolls through the congratulating messages from his friends and even Blue. His back leans on the soft cushion chair, dozing off already when other members are getting into the van as well.
Suddenly his phone rings, immediately pull him from dreamland. He hesitates to see his mum video calling him.
'It's eomma, should I take the call? It's like I didn't talk to her for months.' Beomgyu asks Taehyun who is sitting behind him.
'You should, I don't even have parents to talk to.' The younger replies, he is not saying this bitterly, he simply wants to encourage him.
Of course Taehyun wishes his parents are there to witness his first stage... After years, he has chosen to believe they are stars in the sky watching him over.
He doesn't know much about Beomgyu's family but whatever happens to him, he will be on his side.
'Eomma?' Beomgyu answers the call.
'Beomgyu-ah, how are you? It's hard to proceed to the train station, everywhere is full of your fans...' Mrs Choi moves the camera around to show him the crowded scene. Beomgyu realizes his mum is wearing their live merchandise Tshirt as well.
'Why are you here? You really came to my show?'
'You sent me the tickets, should I throw them to the bin?'
'But... you want me to study and find a stable job...'
'Pabo, eomma just wants you to be happy. Sorry for not being there for you in the first place, but we will support you and your band. Always make a call when you need to, eomma will listen.'
Beomgyu almost bursts in tears when his mum gives him the words he wanted to hear over those years of struggles.
'Where's appa? I know he won't come... Thanks for calling eomma.' Beomgyu pouts disappointedly, his mum changed her mind, doesn't mean his father too.
He is ready to cut the call but Taehyun grabs his phone from the back, 'Excuse me, I'm his bandmate Taehyun if you remember, please tell his dad Beomgyu is the most enduring and talented guitarist on earth. He goes to college to please his parents, he practices playing guitar every single day, he works a part-time job so he doesn't need to ask his family for money, he writes his own songs and debuted under a famous label, which part does he not satisfy with?'
Beomgyu shocked at Taehyun's blunt words as the younger returns the phone to him. Taehyun really has his eyes on him all the time.
'Darling, you start the call without me?'
The voice of a middle-aged male startled both boys, Beomgyu's eyes widen when his father appears from the side of the screen.
Taehyun blushes to the thought that Beomgyu's father had heard everything he said. The bold merman shrinks.
'Am I not clear about my son?' Mr Choi's serious expression makes the boys hold their breath.
'We are afraid the same thing happened to my sister will happen to my son again!'
His sister, referring to Beomgyu's aunt Dara. If that tragedy didn't happen, his father probably wouldn't have opposed to his dream.
'I won't let that happen!' Taehyun counters from the back. He won't let anyone hurt his boba.
'We won't!'
Soobin, Yeonjun and Hueningkai who have been listening to them shout together.
