Mic Drop Harmony (BINI_Aiah & Female!Reader Fanfiction)

CHAPTER 7 - TRAINING ACCIDENT

Three grueling months had flown by in a whirlwind of rehearsals, vocal training, and muscle-burning dance routines (mostly just for the girls). Your dedication, along with BINI's, had finally paid off. The successful collaboration vlog in Palawan, racking up a staggering 15 million views in just three short months, was a testament to your growing fanbase. Management saw the potential, and the news was finally official - it was your time to debut your first single.

Excitement crackled in the air, a tangible force that buzzed around the shared living space you and the girls called home. Rain lashed against the windows, a soothing rhythm that contrasted with the vibrant energy within. You decided to cook dinner, a routine that had blossomed during your training period.

The kitchen became your haven, a place where you could express your creativity and nurture your bandmates and the girls after a long day of pushing their limits. Syd, with her own culinary talents, took charge of lunches, while you tackled dinners. Laughter and the sizzle of ingredients filled the air as you whipped up a delicious sisig - a spicy, savory dish that promised to tantalize taste buds.

One by one, the girls shuffled into the dining area, weary smiles gracing their faces. Your bandmates, Zild and Donny, were already setting the table, their movements falling into a practiced rhythm after months of shared routines. Aiah, however, caught your eye. Her normally bright walk was subdued, a slight limp hinting at hidden discomfort.

You greeted everyone, a warm smile spreading across your face. "Dinner's served!"

Jhoanna, ever the food enthusiast, was the first to dig in. "Y/N, this smells incredible! I haven't had sisig in ages," she exclaimed, spearing a generous portion with her fork.

A chorus of appreciative murmurs filled the table as everyone tucked into your culinary creation.

"Request mo yan eh," You said to the girl.

"At talagang nagrequest ka pa" Colet said teasing Jhoanna earning a glare from the girl.

The girls exchanged playful banter, their tiredness momentarily forgotten as they enjoyed the camaraderie and delicious food. You reveled in the sense of family you'd built with them, a bond forged through sweat, tears, and shared dreams.

After dinner, Donny took charge of dishwashing, a familiar routine. The girls offered their thanks, their genuine appreciation warming your heart. As they headed back to their room, you spotted Colet lingering in the hallway.

"Hey, have you seen Aiah?" you inquired, a flicker of concern entering your voice.

Colet simply pointed towards their shared room before disappearing into her own. You nodded in thanks and made your way down the hall, the familiar rhythm of your steps a comforting presence. A soft knock echoed in the stillness before Stacey's voice, laced with a hint of amusement, called out, "Come in!"

Pushing open the door, you were met with a scene of relaxation. Some of the girls were scrolling through their phones, others nestled beneath cozy blankets, lost in the glow of their laptops. Your gaze immediately darted towards Aiah, a wave of relief washing over you when you spotted her.

"Well, hello there, my dear cousin," Stacey chirped, a playful glint in her eyes. Aiah, as if on cue, looked up from her phone, her eyes widening slightly as she met your gaze. You offered her a reassuring smile, the concern in your eyes clear.

Ignoring Stacey's teasing, you noticed Aiah's hesitant steps as she approached you. You looked down, your eyes immediately drawn to her foot. A grimace flickered across your face as you spotted a slight swelling around her ankle.

Without a word, you gently guided her out of the room and towards the balcony, the cool night air providing a welcome contrast to the warmth inside. You both settled into comfortable chairs, the pitter-patter of rain creating a soothing background melody.
