❲ ♥︎ ❳ ive › rainy days

It was a rainy Tuesday afternoon, and you knelt down in front of one of the dorm's lonely windows, intently watching the downpour outside while making quiet noises. Jiwon, your secondary caregiver, was by your side, watching you intently.

You were dressed in a comfortable pink sweater and denim overalls, with your hair tied up in pigtails, courtesy of Hyunseo, who was in the living room and in your field of vision, watching a drama with Wonyoung (and probably reenacting it, as well).

It's been a few weeks since you revealed that you were a little, and there's been a lot of progress so far. You're still a bit shy about it, but not as much as you were in the beginning. Out of all of your members, you unsurprisingly cling to Yujin and Gaeul the most, which everyone found adorable, especially the two aforementioned, despite the fact that both little and big you are a handful. You're just grateful that they all love you, no matter what, and you're glad that you opened up to them about this.

"Unnie," you called out.

Jiwon offered you a soft smile. "Yes, baby?"

"Whewe is Ajinnie an' mama?" You asked quietly as you turned to look back out the window. Jiwon could tell that you were growing sadder by the second, especially when you placed a hand on the window and tears welled up in your eyes. But she understands. It's been three days since they've all seen the two eldest, and you've been missing them terribly.

"Aw~! Nana, baby, no crying!" Jiwon cooed. She was quick to grab your hand and lead you to the couch, where the other two maknaes were, and then had you take a seat on her lap.

Hyunseo and Wonyoung frowned upon seeing the tears streaming down your cheeks. "Heol!" Wonyoung exclaimed. "Why is our baby girl crying, hm?" She asked. The question was more so directed at Jiwon.

By now, you were sobbing in Jiwon's arms, moving around as you did so, causing your unnies to frown with worry. You've never gotten so upset before.

"I wan' mama an' Ajinnie!" You cried as you held onto Jiwon tightly. You could feel yourself slipping further in age.

"All of this fussing isn't good for her. I think she may be regressing even further," Jiwon murmured. "Hey, Nana," she said to you after a few beats of silence. She kept her voice soft and light. "What's wrong, baby?"

"Mama an' Jinnie! I miss mama an' Jinnie!"

Everyone frowned. Jiwon sighed and ran a hand through her black hair, keeping the other resting on the back of your head as you buried your face in the crook of her neck. Seconds later, Jiwon felt you biting the collar of her shirt, and that's when she knew that you were probably feeling really small. She picked you up by the thighs, grunting quietly as she allowed you to wrap your legs around her waist.

"You'll get to see mama and Jinnie soon, Nana. They've just gotta wrap up the show that they're on, and then they'll be here again and we can watch them on TV! How does that sound, little one?" Jiwon questioned enthusiastically as she walked.

You, still looking rather sad, simply stared at her, leading the latter to believe that you were most likely at your youngest age: just barely one year old.

Jiwon smiled warmly, lovingly brushing hair out of your face. "Can you tell me how old you are, Nana?" Again, you simply stared at her, but this time, you leaned forward and placed your cheek against hers and made quiet noises, making her coo.

Jiwon walked with you in her arms until you reached the at-home studio room. Inside, Rei was working on a project.

"Rei-unnie!" Jiwon called out as soon as she walked through the open door.

"Yes?" Rei responded. But upon seeing you being held in Jiwon's arms with tear-stained cheeks, she frowned. She's a sucker when it comes to her members crying. "Oh, no, what happened? Is she feeling small?"
