Chapter 30

It was practice all day. The competition was tomorrow and Yin was making them work extra hard today. It was almost constantly dancing back to back. Yin was having a hard time sitting down. Whenever Beom convinced her to allow them to have a break, the female would still be watching herself in the mirror.

"By the time we have to dance tomorrow, we're going to be passed out," Yeojin huffed.

"You could stay that again," Beom agreed as she plopped herself down on the ground. She was spread out like a starfish as she tried to cool herself off with a cold water bottle on her stomach.

"Alright, there isn't time to rest. We have to make sure that it is going to be perfect," Yin told them.

"We've done this dance a hundred times without exaggeration. I'm sure it will turn out perfect tomorrow," Jieun signed.

Beom was worried about the female. She had been on edge a lot recently. Secretly, she thought that Byungho was still bothering her even if she kept telling them that she wasn't thinking about him.

"Should I have Yohan come in and watch us?" Yin questioned.

"If that allows us to have a break then yes please," Sumi whined.

"I have something to say," Chaewon stated as she stood up. She seemed to be a little nervous about what she was about to say. "I know we've been working hard on this dance, but I don't think I'll be able to perform tomorrow. I have an exam at the school during the time the competition is."

The room went silent. They didn't know what to think at this point—having a member leave the day right before their competition.

"To be honest, I'm going to quit being in COS:MIC. It has been hard to juggle my school life, work, and dancing at the same time. I really wanted to perform tomorrow, but this happened to come up at the wrong time."

Beom walked over to her and pulled her into a hug. "Everything is alright. We can quickly get different formations done now, can't we Yin?"

"I think we can."

With that, Yin gathered them up. She would go through each formation to change parts that seemed off. Most of the time they weren't huge changes, just pulling in or out one of the other members to make the formation look better.

"I think we'll make this work," Beom reassured Yin.

"I hope so. There will be so many casting companies there looking for talent. I don't want to mess up in front of them. I want to show what COS:MIC can do."

"We'll be just fine. This isn't our first time performing. I believe we'll rock the stage that the judges will be blown out of their seats," Jieun said, trying to lighten up her mood.

"I hope so," Yin sighed.

Beom placed her hand on the female's back and began to rub it to comfort Yin. Her feelings were still all over the place. One moment she was herself while the next Yin will become like an angry monster.

"It is just there will be so many people and agencies that will be there. I don't want to embarrass myself. I keep stressing myself out about this thinking about every single horrible possibility that could happen."

"You shouldn't worry about a thing. You're Yin, who can kill every single performance," Jieun encouraged her.

"You've trained us all from the ground up," Yeojin popped her head over their shoulders. "I'm sure we'll kill the stage."

Jieun's phone let out a ding as the female slipped away from the group. Beom watched her smile as she read the text message that was sent to her. She quickly replied back to the person before leaping onto her feet and making her way back over to the group.
