The three was just sober when they stroll down the street of Shanghai. Lights illuminated from the wet road after the rain. Some people are still awake even in midnight.

"I want another tattoo so bad" Chaeyoung whining.

"Then let's go to the open tattoo studio" Jeongyeon said. "I want a tattoo too" she added.

"Oh wow, you sure about that?" Chaeyoung asked.

Jeongyeon nodded.

While walking on the side street they saw a signage of what they are looking for.

As they enter the studio, blue lights flashing inside the room, arts are everywhere. A woman with red streaks on her hair and has pale white skin, piercings, a height was about Chaeyoung approach them.

"Welcome. What can I do for you?" she asked.


"My friend here want to get ink. Could you show her what kind of tattoo do you offer?"

"Its okay Chaeng. I got this I know what I want." Jeongyeon sat on the chair were the session may done.

"Chaeyoung sit down here, I know you're dizzy" Sana advised Chaeyoung when she noticed her massaging her forehead. Chaeyoung sit still and noticed the tattoo artist keep glancing on Sana.

Weird. Her thought.

"I know this is impossible but can you do the watercolor inner lip tattoo?"

"Sure. What character do you want?" the artist asked.

"Snowball" she said it directly.

"What?" the artist asked in confusion.

"Snowball the bunny"

"Ohw! From the movie. I see." The artist cutely chuckle. "Do you want a glow in the dark tattoo maam? I mean its perfect for this character tho."

"that sounds nice. Let's try it"

The session start, and the whole room was silent except the tattoo machine buzzing.

It took one hour to get the session done. Jeongyeon look at the mirror and pulled her lower lip to see the result, she even try the glowing effect of the tattoo. She feel satisfied.


"Chaeyoung it's your turn now"


Chaeyoung have no response. They were sleeping in the corner. "Oh come on!" Jeongyeon whined.


"I'm sorry Miss" Jeongyeon apologize to the artist who's chuckling.


"It's okay, you can stay here. You guys seems exhausted tho" she said.


"Really? Thank you so much"


The night is getting old Jeongyeon felt doze up too, so she try to close her eyes and lean her head to the table.


A few minutes pass, Chaeyoung heard a little noise that make her senses activated but stay still in her spot. Sana was beside her snoring.


She heard a footsteps behind them, slowly coming towards Sana. Chaeyoung just secretly observing.


What the hell is she doing?


The tattoo artist come close and scrutinize Sana's face, Chaeyoung is aware and just peeking.


This is creepy.


It took her 3 minutes just by staring to Sana's face. Until she's making a move, she's about to touch her.
