"Look at that tree! It looks so huggable!" Chaeyoung exclaimed, dashing towards it with open arms.

"Chaeyoung, it's dirty! Don't hug it!" cautioned Jennie, the other girls nodding in agreement.

"So what? It's nature! Think of it as embracing Mother Nature herself! You know, someone once told me that even plants need love," Chaeyoung said, her eyes filled with adoration as she wrapped her arms around the tree.

Jennie sighed, Jisoo shook her head, but they both let Chaeyoung do her thing. Meanwhile, Lisa stared in wonder at her, intrigued by her enthusiasm.

"She practically does this every time she sees a tree," said Lisa. "It's true. We went to pick up some ice cream, and she ran to a tree and hugged it. Sometimes, she even cries while hugging them," added Jisoo, her expression reflecting confusion.

"She must have a reason," Jennie said as they all continued to watch Chaeyoung embrace the tree, tears streaming down her face. Jisoo, feeling concerned, approached Chaeyoung and gently rested her hand on Chaeyoung's back for comfort. "Is everything okay, Chaeyoung? Why are you crying?" she asked.

Chaeyoung let out a shaky breath, still clinging to the tree, allowing her tears to freely flow. Worried, the other two joined Jisoo, attempting to comfort her. Suddenly, Chaeyoung collapsed to the ground, her cries echoing around them.

"The girls, even more alarmed, gathered around Chaeyoung. "Chaeyoung, what's wrong? Did something happen? Did the tree hurt you?" they asked in unison, their worry palpable.

Chaeyoung, still clutching the tree, tears streaming down her face, struggled to speak. "I-I miss her so much," she managed to say between sobs.

The other girls exchanged worried glances, understanding the depth of Chaeyoung's pain. Jennie knelt beside her, placing a gentle hand on Chaeyoung's trembling shoulder. "It's okay, Chaeyoung. We're here for you. You're not alone," she reassured, her voice filled with empathy.

Jisoo, feeling Chaeyoung's anguish, nodded at the others, silently urging them to offer their support. Together, they encircled Chaeyoung, offering their presence as a source of comfort during her moment of vulnerability.

"Who? Who do you miss?" Jennie questioned, her tone filled with concern.

"My girlfriend," Chaeyoung whispered, her voice barely audible amidst her tears. The revelation left the other girls in shock; Chaeyoung had never shared details about her past relationships with them before.

"She's the love of my life," Chaeyoung whispered, her voice barely audible amidst her tears. The revelation left the other girls in shock; Chaeyoung had never shared details about her past relationships with them before.

"She means everything to me," Chaeyoung continued, her words heavy with emotion.

"Well, can't you reach out to her? Maybe she's missing you too," Lisa suggested optimistically, her eyes beaming as if she had found the solution to ease Chaeyoung's pain.

"Yeah, Chaeyoung, just call her!" Jisoo encouraged, echoing Eunchae's sentiment. Chaeyoung's sobs echoed once again as she stared at her friends, their concerned faces evident.

"I can't," Chaeyoung muttered, tears streaming down her face.

"Why can't you?" Jisoo asked gently, trying to understand. Chaeyoung cried into her hands, her voice muffled. "She's dead."

"What? What did you say?" Jennie leaned in closer to Chaeyoung.

"I said she's dead!" Chaeyoung cried out, her anguish piercing the air. The realization hit the girls, their faces dropping in sorrow for their friend, understanding the depth of her heartbreak.

Jennie, her eyes filled with empathy, reached out to Chaeyoung, placing a comforting hand on her trembling shoulder. "Chaeyoung, we're here for you. We had no idea. I'm so sorry," she said softly, her voice conveying both sadness and understanding.

Jisoo and the others gathered closer, forming a protective circle around Chaeyoung. "You don't have to go through this alone," Jisoo assured her, her voice gentle but unwavering.

Tears continued to stream down Chaeyoung's face as she struggled to regain composure. "I miss her so much," she whispered, her voice breaking.

Lisa spoke up, her voice tender. "Tell us about her. Tell us about the moments you shared. Let's remember her together," she suggested, trying to offer a way for Chaeyoung to express her grief.

The group sat in a solemn silence, allowing Chaeyoung the space to share her memories if she felt comfortable. They listened intently, offering support through their presence and understanding.

"It's because she loved trees. Her name was Y/n," Chaeyoung began, her voice tinged with both sorrow and affection. "She was beautiful, as beautiful as she was, so was her personality. She loved nature, being around it, engulfed in it. It was her escape from everything, whether that be school or stress; it always brought her peace."

As Chaeyoung spoke about Y/n, memories flashed vividly in her mind, painting a bittersweet picture. "When we met, I always found it a bit awkward when we'd go out, and she'd just start hugging trees," Chaeyoung chuckled softly, a fond smile gracing her lips. "She always told me to appreciate the little things in life. And to make her happy, I did it along with her. We hugged every tree we deemed 'huggable.' It became a tradition we upheld, a tradition I grew to appreciate now and forever."

Her friends sat in quiet reverence, absorbing the story of Chaeyoung and Y/n's shared connection with nature. Understanding dawned on their faces, realizing that each tree Chaeyoung embraced was an embrace shared with her girlfriend, an intimate tie to their bond.

"I never knew," murmured Lisa, her eyes glistening with empathy.

Chaeyoung nodded, a tear escaping her eye. "It's my way of keeping her spirit alive. Each tree carries a piece of her, and hugging them brings me closer to the memories we shared."

Her friends nodded in understanding, now seeing Chaeyoung's tree-hugging ritual as not just a gesture but a beautiful tradition, a poignant tribute to the love she had lost. They surrounded her, offering silent support and a newfound appreciation for the depth of her feelings.

"She sounds like an amazing person," Jennie said, embracing Chaeyoung tightly. "She was; you guys would've loved her," Chaeyoung replied, her eyes red from crying.

"We already love her. If she loves you, we love her," Jisoo said, offering a small, supportive smile.

"From now on, Chaeyoung, we will hug every tree we deem huggable for Y/n," Lisa declared, placing her hand in the center.

"For Y/n," Jennie affirmed, placing her hand on top of Lisa's.

"For Y/n," echoed Jisoo and Lisa, joining in, their hands forming a united circle.

Chaeyoung's tears flowed once again, but this time, they were tears of gratitude and comfort. She felt overwhelmed by her members' support and love, knowing that with them by her side, everything would eventually be alright.

"For Y/n," Chaeyoung said, adding her hand to the circle, her voice filled with a mix of sorrow and determination.

In that shared moment, amidst the rustling leaves and the quiet hum of nature, Chaeyoung and her friends stood encircling the tree. They whispered their heartfelt dedication, "For Y/n," their voices a soft promise that their love would endure.

With each embrace of the tree, they honored Y/n's memory, their tradition becoming a beautiful symbol of their bond. Chaeyoung, feeling the serenity of the moment, whispered silently, "I love you, Y/n. Rest easy, baby," the words carrying a bittersweet farewell.

As the sun cast its golden hues, they felt a sense of peace, knowing that Y/n's spirit would forever live on in their shared tradition. With a final heartfelt hug, they turned, walking away, yet carrying Y/n's love in their hearts, a testament to the timeless strength of their friendship and the enduring power of love.
