Preparations and promotions were never really easy; always busy doing something, be it practice, recording, a photoshoot, anything.

Drying his hair, Jongho left his shared bathroom and joined his bandmates in the dining room. They would eat dinner after every practice together, it had become some kind of habit. Mostly to discuss how the practice went and how they would further go on.

"Smells like more than grass today," Mingi comments as he sits down on the empty chair next to their youngest. He dramatically rubs his stomach as he eyes the meat on the table, freshly taken out of the delivery box. "Are we allowed or did you sneak this in today?"

"Our manager isn't a monster," Hongjoong commented as he helped Yeosang place the plates on the table, "he bought the food, don't tell anyone else though," the leader chuckled and sat on the other side.

Soon everyone else was gathered at the table and casual chit-chat began.

"We're getting a new diet plan," Jongho heard, "personalized, Manager-nim told me."

Mingi nudged Jongho's side and filled his plate with two strips of meat and more of the side dishes. "We need to get rid of the evidence, hm?" he grinned and looked over to the beverages. "A little alcohol won't hurt, or...?"

"I'm not a child, Mingi," Jongho replied and lightly jabbed the elder's side, hard enough to make him groan though. He giggled almost cutely and took the soju bottle himself, filling his glass.

"Yah- I see," Mingi replied, holding his side.

I'm so hyped for the new comeback!

I love this concept

The thot line is getting longer and longer and I can't with this-

"Are you reading through the comments?" Seonghwa asked as he plumbed next to Jongho on the leader couch in their practice room.

The first concept photo for their new album had just been published.

"Mhm," the younger hummed and continued to scroll through the comment section. Curiously, he read through those that caught his eyes. "I want to know their reaction."

I don't understand why they keep putting Jongho in at least 3 layers

"I'm sure they are just as hyped as we are, they are our fans after all."

You can see who could hold a diet and who couldn't haha

"And noisy people who don't have a life are everywhere"

Did he gain weight?

In dark corners, hidden in the shadow and the locked door; the urges, the whispering voices that terrorized his mind. There was no peace when he was alone, no peace when he was with people. No peace; only the hole in him that needed to be filled with something, anything.

It's okay

You'll just do another diet

No one will notice

It was like a trance as if his body didn't listen to him anymore when he finished the last bit of the food he had bought in secret. His stomach hurt, his body hurt; mind racing and making his vision spin.
