7: In between maybes

Sakura's POV:

It was already 10 p.m. 4 hours after Chaeyeon dropped me off to my dorm. Meeting her sister earlier was a surprise I still can't get over, she even asked me to be patient with her sister. She told me that her sister's heart had been broken many times. This made me wonder how her heart got broken. I made a search for her name on Google in my laptop right now. I learned that Chaeyeon and her sister Chaeryeong joined two reality survival shows K-Pop Star 3 and Sixteen. Sixteen that created Twice, the first Girl Group to have a J-Line. Both were unfortunately eliminated. Particularly, Chaeyeon was eliminated on the first episode.

She also joined a dance crew called KYW, Park Jin Young even told Yang Hyun Suk the CEO of YG Entertainment that he will never let go of the Lee Sisters, during their stint on K-Pop Star 3. Chaeyeon was widely known in the Korean Entertainment Industry. There was also an article that a former KYW member was her alleged girlfriend who was caught cheating. Chaeryeong also created a name for herself among ITZY members, she was known for her dancing and singing skills, as much as Chaeyeon was known for her dancing and singing skills.

The article about Chaeyeon's alleged girlfriend was not named, they didn't specify who the alleged girlfriend was, it was not named in the article. Neither did it show any pictures aside from Chaeyeon's Pictures. Furthermore, her agency that time which was one of the Big Threes in Korean Entertainment, JYP released a statement that their Trainee Chaeyeon didn't have any relationships that time, much more with another woman. The company said they condone any homosexual relations and dating between the trainees themselves.

It was true, I researched the training environment in Korea, typically a trainee was not allowed to have their phones, it was confiscated by the training team and they'd be allowed to use their phones for 3 hours maximum during the weekends to call their families. Apart from that, strictly no use of their private cellphones during their trainee years. This was the main reason why I decided to audition with WM Entertainment, because they don't have strict policies on phone usage and other communication devices, I thought at least my kids could call their parents everyday to help them ease their worries.

Nako and Hitomi were good kids to me, they've never left my side during the time that I experienced two betrayals from my closest friends. They are the ones who saw me at my worst and those days I wasn't eating properly, they were the ones to be there to share meals with me. They stayed with me in my apartment in Tokyo, when I decided not to come home at our dorm. Just as I was recalling my past with my two kids and ex friends, Nako and Hi-Chan entered my room.

"Kkura Okan. We can't sleep." Both kids chorused.

"Come to bed with me then." I replied to both of them and locked the screen of my laptop and placed my laptop back in the study table.

Both of my kids climbed the bed, Nako on the right and Tomi on the left. Each one encircled me in a hug. Each one of my arms are cuddling their upper backs. No matter how small or large my bed was, they'd still join me in bed.

"Sleep well children." I whispered into Tomi and Nako.

"Goodnight, Kku Okan." They both said sleepily.

These two really knows when I am thinking about Anna and Jurina, they take my mind off the two friends that betrayed my trust.

"Kku Okan, don't think about your ex friends, we're here now and we will protect you." Nako whispered sleepily.

"Thank you, I love you both." I replied to them and gave them both a kisss on top of their heads.

I slept when the two are already in deep sleep. I was staring at the ceiling until 11 p.m. I fell asleep and woke up at 4 a.m. to prepare my kids' breakfast, lunch and snacks. I was at the Kitchen, done preparing my kids' breakfast and I am now packing their snacks and lunches when both of them entered the kitchen. Both kids trapped me with a hug from each side.
