From Stage To Barracks

chapter 3

The morning after the memorable send-off party for Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu, the famous friends woke up with a collective hangover. They had danced, laughed, and celebrated the night away, and now they were dealing with the consequences.
SinB was the first to wake up, her head throbbing with every heartbeat. She groaned and stumbled her way to the kitchen in search of water and pain relievers.Kyulkyung was already awake, trying to piece together the events of the previous night. She chuckled to herself as she remembered the goofy dance-off and the laughter shared with her friends Jeon Somi, usually the life of the party, was nursing her own headache. She regretted her decision to join the dance-off, but the fun they had was worth the pain.Jinsol woke up with a tired smile, her body aching from all the dancing. She checked her phone and found a flood of party photos and videos from the night before.Yeoreum had a smile on her face despite the hangover. She appreciated the bond they all shared and was grateful for the opportunity to spend time with such amazing friends.Rose, known for her love of fun, was no stranger to hangovers. She was sipping on a sports drink and jokingly complaining about her sore feet from dancing in heels. Elkie looked like she was handling the hangover the best. She made breakfast for everyone, including some traditional hangover soup, which was much appreciated.Shuhua (G-IDLE)was the last to wake up, rubbing her temples with a groan. She couldn't help but smile when she remembered the dance-off, especially Tzuyu's robot dance.

Despite their hangovers, they gathered in the living room, sharing funny anecdotes from the party and nursing their headaches with laughter. They realized that these moments of bonding and friendship were what made their busy lives in the K-pop industry all the more worthwhile.

Later in the afternoon, they helped Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu pack their belongings for their military service. It was a bittersweet moment as they prepared for their friends' departure. They made sure to include letters and small gifts to remind them of their friendship during their time away.

As they enjoyed their dinner  together, they exchanged stories, laughter, and promises to stay connected. The bond between the members of Twice remained as strong as ever, even in the face of the challenges that lay ahead.
The members of Twice sat around the table for their farewell lunch with Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu. The atmosphere was a mix of emotions—sadness, pride, and nostalgia.

**Nayeon:** (with teary eyes) "I can't believe our youngest members are leaving for the military. They've grown up so fast."

**Momo:** (smiling through tears) "I know. We'll miss them, but we'll wait for their safe return."

**Sana:** (wiping her eyes) "They're going to do great, just like we always do."

**Jeongyeon:** (softly) "And we'll be right here cheering them on."

**Jihyo:** (holding back tears) "Let's make sure to stay in touch and support each other, no matter where we are."

**Mina:** (nodding) "They're not alone; they have us, their friends, and all our fans behind them."

**Dahyun:** (smiling bravely) "We'll be back before you know it, and we'll have even more stories to share."

**Chaeyoung:** (squeezing Dahyun's hand) "Promise you'll all take care of yourselves too!"

**Tzuyu:** (looking at each member) "We love you guys. Until we meet again!"

As they enjoyed their lunch together, their conversations were filled with a mixture of laughter and tears. They exchanged stories about their trainee days, their journey to becoming K-pop stars, and all the unforgettable memories they had created together.

**Nayeon:** "Remember that time during our first tour when we got lost in that foreign city?"

**Momo:** "And Tzuyu was the one who found the way back to the hotel because she could read the signs."
