JYP Building, South Korea
The girls are now present inside the company's conference room for their comeback preparation meeting. It's been three days since Mina knew about Katarina. As the day passes by, Mina's curiosity gets bigger to the point that she can't help it but to remember everything that happened that night. She can't even concentrate on the things around her since she's preoccupied with her thoughts of Katarina's relationship with Chaeyoung.
So, that's it! You have a month to prepare and practice for your next comeback. I know you can do it! Jinyoung proudly said while smiling lovingly.
We will be announcing your comeback today in your social media accounts. The planning team leader happily said.
All the staff of JYPE are proud of the girls because they decided to come back for their fans and for the company. Everyone is clapping their hands except for Mina who's been spacing out. On the other hand, Mina is not aware that she caught the attention of everyone. The staff can't help it not to be sad remembering Chaeyoung when they see Mina in that state. Chaeyoung had been a great help for Mina when she's suffering from her anxiety. Chaeyoung always stayed by her side. At times like this, Chaeyoung will take care of Mina. She will ask her what's on her mind or just hold her hands and smile at her. Chaeyoung sometimes will answer on behalf of Mina because she knew her very well due of their similarities. Nonetheless,they are not worried because they know how the members are taking care of Mina just like how Chaeyoung used to do it.

The CEO already dismiss the meeting with the staffs and now the only people left are the girls and their managers. Jinyoung is now worriedly looking at the girl in front of him.
Mina-ssi? What is bothering you? You're not focusing during our meeting. He worriedly asked.
PD-nim? How long will be the promotion period? Mina suddenly asked.
The girls are now looking at Mina's direction as if they are curious why Mina asked.
A month? Why did you ask? The CEO curiously asked.
I-I want to attend a university. Mina announced making everyone surprised.
O-Okay. That surprise me! You keep on surprising me Mina-ssi. It will be hard for you to balance your career and attend university here in Korea. Jinyoung commented.
Not here. I want to study in Budapest. Mina firmly replied.
What?! Jihyo said while blinking her eyes out of shock. She knew for a fact the Mina doesn't want to go to school that's one of their topic with their circle of friends.
Budapest?!! That's far from here! I think you-- you should think about it again. Jinyoung stuttered out of shock.
I want to study in Budapest Business School. I already thought about it for three days. Mina casually said not looking to anyone but to her hands playing the pen she's holding.
Three days?!!! Mitang~ are you sick?!! Sana worriedly asked her friend while placing her palm in Mina's forehead.
Unnie, I know the place is crazy beautiful but- think about it again. Tzuyu suggest.
Mina-ssi, let's think about it again. Okay? Manager Unnie said.
I've been thinking about her for three days and my curiosity can't wait for long. I want to know the answers as soon as possible. Mina answered looking at the manager.
But- Mina. We are starting our career again. I thought we already agreed about it for Chaeyoung sake and our fans. Nayeon said looking at Mina.
I know but that's before I met her. And, for me and Chaeyoung's sake I want answers. Mina said intensely looking at the girls making everyone gulped out of fear.
She's really scary when she's like that. Dahyun whispered to Tzuyu. Tzuyu just elbowed her.
Her?! Who are you talking about by the way? Jinyoung curiously ask looking at Mina and their manager who's been with them during their vacation.
Ah- uh.. That's.. The manager hesitantly answers.
Mina-ssi, that school- it's an exclusive school for businessmen children. But, if you want to study there you should be endorse by your family. 3-mix manager butts in.
Why do you know that? SMC manager asked while frowning.
I just happened to know. The school is the best and popular place to learn for business course. By the way, they have music and arts. 3-mix manager reasoned out.
So, are you going to ask help from your parents?! Misamo's manager asked Mina.
Mina didn't answer. She's just playing the pen she's holding.
So, again, who's the girl she's curious? Jinyoung asked the SMC manager.
The manager gave her phone to Jinyoung.
Son Chaeyoung?! But -- Mina-ssi, she's already-
Katarina Han. Mina said cutting off Jinyoung.
Huh?! Who? Jinyoung asked again.
Meanwhile, Jihyo pick the phone and take a look while the other girls except Momo is behind her curious to the person Mina's been talking.
It's Chaeyoungie. Jihyo mumbled.
That's Katarina Han. We saw her in Budapest. Momo suddenly talk.
Come on! It's Chaeng. Jeongyeon whined.
Look when the photo was taken. Momo added.
Jihyo's hand is shaking when she saw the date the photo was taken. The girls behind her gasped in shock.
Yah! It's not a good prank! Sana said.
Who said I am pranking you guys? I'm serious when I said I want to go there. Mina said and gave her phone to Sana.
The girls surrounded Sana and look at the captured I.D.
What the hell is going on?!!! Jeongyeon said in shock.
Is that her sister?! Dahyun asked in surprise.
Yah! Where did you get this, Unnie?! Tzuyu asked trying her best not to cry.
So, is this the reason why you want to study in Budapest?? Jihyo asked.
Mina and Momo nodded.
I want to see her!! Nayeon exclaimed.
JYP and the managers also took the opportunity to look what the girl have been talking. The CEO and MISAMO manager are visibly shock from what they discovered.
Katarina Han? Katarina Son? Jinyoung mumbled but SMC maganer heard.
Oh! My! Right! Cub's English name is Katarina Son! Why did I forget that?! So, there's a possibility that- wait, who's the Han? Manager Unnie silently talking to herself and look at her manager.
So, Can I take a leave to study? Mina asked.
