Seulgi's POV
I turned off the engine after I arrived at the parking area of SG Entertainment. I was removing my helmet while getting off my motor when my phone rang. I immediately hung my helmet to the motor's side mirror before I took my phone from my pocket.

I looked at who was calling me, and it was Yeji. I answered it and placed my phone to my ear. "Hello, baby?"

"Oppa, are you going home tomorrow?"

"Huh? Why?" I asked while leaning to the motor.

"Yah. You're dead to Mom if she heard what you said. It's her birthday."

I laughed, "Just kidding. Of course, I won't forget her birthday. I'm going home after our practice today. How about you? Are you going home?"

"Yes, oppa. Our manager allowed me since we don't have a schedule for this week. Actually, I'm in your unit now. I'll just wait for you here, and let's go home together."

I was about to speak when I heard someone's voice. "Seulgi, what are you doing here? Let's go. We're going to be late."

I looked at who it was, and it was Wooyoung hyung. He just got out of his car. He is with Sungkyu hyung and Hyoyeon noona.

I looked at my phone screen to see the time. It's already 1:48 pm, and our practice is 2 pm.

"Okay, hyung. I'm coming." I said while walking towards them. "Hey, baby. I'm going to hang up now. If you're bored, just clean my condo, okay?" I said to Yeji and laughed.

"I'm currently cleaning your condo, oppa. Why is it so messed up here? Don't you have time to clean?"

I chuckled, "I'm busy. And I know you will clean that for me when you go there."

"Whatever, oppa. See you later. I love you."

"I love you too, baby. Bye." I said and hung up the call.

"Girlfriend?" Sungkyu hyung asked after I got in the elevator.

I shook my head. "My younger sister."

"You seemed close to each other." Wooyoung hyung commented.

"Yup. We're close." I said with a smile.

"I wished my brother was like you, Seulgi, but he's not. He annoyed me every time we were together." Hyoyeon noona said.

I chuckled, "I also annoyed my sister. I think that's one of our ways to show our love to our sister."

Hyoyeon noona snorted, "If that's the case, no thanks." We just laughed at what she said.

It's already been two weeks since the Redpink concert in Japan ended. After the concert, we started to learn the choreography of the Redpink comeback song, and we're just practicing it now.

So, when I asked Heechul hyung if it was okay to be absent tomorrow for my mom's birthday, he permitted me because we still had lots of time to practice.

We started to practice when our team already completed. After minutes of practicing, Chaeyeon made a wrong step that caused her to stumble on the ground. We stopped dancing and quickly went to her.

"Are you okay?" Hyoyeon noona asked her.

Chaeyeon nodded and got up. "I'm okay. Let's continue."

"Are you sure?" Sooyoung noona asked when we saw Chaeyeon wincing when she tried to walk.

"Yes, unnie." Chaeyeon smiled at us.

"Stop lying. Let me see your foot." I said and kneeled in front of her. After I checked on it, I looked at Chaeyeon again. "You sprained your foot." I stood up and looked at Sunyoung noona. "Noona, can you help her to go to the couch while I'm getting some ice?"

Sunyoung noona nodded. "Sure." She said and helped Chaeyeon to walk.

I ran outside the practice room and immediately returned when I got ice cubes from the cafeteria that I wrapped in my handkerchief. I walked towards the couch when I saw Chaeyeon lying on it and carefully apply the ice cubes to her sprained foot.

I looked at Chaeyeon and saw her wincing again. "You're okay, huh?" I said sarcastically.

Chaeyeon pouted, "I just don't want to be the reason for our practice to be interrupted."

"You don't have to think about that. We still have time to practice." Myungsoo hyung said.

"Yeah. You can rest here and watch us practice first, Chaeyeon." Junho suggested.

Chaeyeon shook her head. "I wanted to practice, oppa. I'm okay now--- Ouch!" Chaeyeon glared at me when I put pressure on her foot.

I chuckled, "I think you're still not okay." I said, and the others laughed.

"You're so mean!" Chaeyeon said and threw the cushion at me.

I caught it. "Can you give me the other cushion too? To elevate your foot." She glared at me first before she threw the other pillow at me. "Thanks," I said with a grin, then put the two cushions beneath her foot.

When our practice ended, I left the practice room first because they were going to take a rest before they left while I went to the rooftop to do my session.

After my session, I decided to go home, but I couldn't see my motor key in my pocket. So I went to the practice room again to see if I misplaced it there.

But I saw Chaeyeon sitting on the couch instead of my key. "Why are you still here?"

"I'm just waiting for Taeyong oppa to help me walk."

I frowned, "Where's the others?"

"They already left. They offered to help me, but I said I wanted to rest more. But the truth is I don't want to be a bother."

"Silly. They don't mind about it. Let's go. I'll help you walk to the lobby. And don't refuse. My sister would scold me if she knew I left you here."

She sighed in defeat, "Okay. But first, I'll message oppa to wait for him at the lobby." I nodded and waited for her to finish her business. She looked at me after she put her phone in her handbag. "By the way, why did you come back?"

"Oh, speaking off." I walked around and looked for my key, but I couldn't see it. I went back to Chaeyeon, who looked confused while looking at me. "I was looking for the key of my motor if I left here, but I think I left it on my motor," I answered her question earlier and scratched my head.

"Careless." She commented before she held my arm to stand up.

"I'm not. I just forgot it because I'm going to be late earlier." I said defensively. "Can I touch you on your shoulder?" I asked for permission.

She laughed softly. "Of course you can. You used to hold it when we were together."

"It's different now," I said, and she just shook her head with a smile in response. I held her by the shoulder while her hand was on my waist to support herself.

"Thanks," Chaeyeon said after we arrived at the lobby.

"You're always welcome. I got to go now. Bye."

"Okay. Take care." She said, and I just nodded at her.

I went to the parking and walked towards my motor. And I'm right, I left the key to my motor.

I drove away from the parking, and when I was about to pass by the company building, I saw Chaeyeon walking outside.

I stopped my motor and raised my visor. "I thought your boyfriend was going to pick you up?" I asked in confusion when she was already near me.

She shook her head, "He said he has an important thing to do."

More important than her? "Okay. I'll take you home. You can't walk for too long. Your sprain will get worse."

She didn't refuse anymore because she knew that I would insist until the end.
