In a quiet, private traditional Korean restaurant, the girls were celebrating "Off the Record" recording ending. Enjoying themselves and already a bit tipsy, laughter were flowing freely. Rei was speaking nonsense, adding to the jovial atmosphere. It was a relief to let go of the pressure for one night.
Drinking felt especially good tonight, but for Yujin, it was also a means to drown out Wonyoung's insistent gaze across the table. Why was she looking at her like that? Was she silently mocking her state? It wouldn't be surprising, and once again, that irrational annoyance crept up within Yujin.
As the night progressed, the girls changed seats without much notice, and Wonyoung ended up next to Yujin, who was already quite intoxicated. Contrary to Yujin's assumptions, Wonyoung was genuinely concerned about her unnie's state. She gently patted Yujin's head and then embraced her.
"Yujin, are you feeling alright?" she asked softly.
"Huh? Wonyoung-ah? Oh, yes, I'm fine," Yujin slurred.
"You should drink some water," Wonyoung suggested, handing her a glass of water to her lips.
Yujin complied without complaint, her thoughts swirling in a drunken haze. Wonyoung took a moment to appreciate Yujin's warmth, holding onto hope that Yujin would eventually open up to her. But Wonyoung was also conflicted; she couldn't bring herself to express her feelings.
.
Eventually, it was time to head back to the dorm. Wonyoung and Gaeul took care of all the girls, tucking them into bed sweetly.
"Good night, Wonnie," Gaeul said.
"Good night, Unnie!" Wonyoung replied.
As they parted ways, Wonyoung hesitated in front of Yujin's door. Should she enter? In the end, she decided to go in, only to find Yujin still awake.
"Yujin-ah, are you okay?" she asked softly.
"Wonyoung-ah? What do you want?" Yujin's voice softened momentarily, calling out Wonyoung's name, before turning cold and aggressive.
"Nothing...Good night," Wonyoung replied, feeling a bit disappointed by Yujin's attitude. Tonight, she wasn't in the mood for playing games or fighting.
With that, she left the room, leaving Yujin alone with her thoughts in the darkness. Yujin couldn't help but feel a twinge of regret at letting her go.
...But why would she hold her back?---------
