Chapter Nineteen: Break Time Is Almost Here!

**Hae & Bae Studio**

During lunchtime, Haewon, Kyujin, and Bae were gathered in the studio, enjoying their meal together. They had ordered some food and were engaged in lively conversation. The atmosphere was relaxed, filled with laughter and friendly banter.

Kyujin, unable to contain her excitement, suddenly announced, "Guess what, guys? I told Jiwoo about our short vacation plan to Australia, and she agreed to come along!" Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she shared the news.

Haewon and Bae exchanged surprised and delighted glances. Haewon, who had been savoring a bite of her food, put down her fork and looked at Kyujin with a grin. "That's fantastic, Kyujin! It's going to be great to have her with us," she said, genuinely happy for her friend.

Bae, equally thrilled, added, "Yes! Now it won't be awkward with just four of us. Jiwoo will definitely make the trip more enjoyable." She gave Kyujin a teasing look. "You must be really happy, huh?"

Kyujin blushed slightly but nodded, "Yes, I am. Jiwoo is really nice, and I think she'll get along well with all of us. Plus, I told her about you two and your special friends, and she was quite surprised but excited to meet everyone."

Haewon chuckled. "I can imagine her reaction. Meeting Lily and Sullyoon must be a big deal for her, right?"

"Absolutely," Kyujin replied. "She's a big fan of Lily, so this trip will be like a dream come true for her."

Bae leaned back in her chair, a thoughtful expression on her face. "We should plan some fun activities that we can all enjoy together. Maybe a visit to the Great Barrier Reef, some local food tours, and definitely some beach time."

Haewon nodded in agreement. "Yes, and let's not forget the kangaroo sightings. Jiwoo mentioned she wanted to see them in their natural habitat."

The three friends continued to discuss their vacation plans, their excitement growing with each passing moment. They talked about different places to visit, activities to do, and even started brainstorming gift ideas for each other to make the trip more memorable.

Kyujin felt a warm sense of happiness. She was grateful to have such supportive friends who were just as enthusiastic about the trip as she was. The idea of Jiwoo joining them added an extra layer of excitement and anticipation to the journey.

As the lunch hour came to a close, they cleared away their food and got ready to dive back into their work. But the promise of the upcoming vacation lingered in the air, a shared dream that would soon become a reality.

**In another universe**

"Okay, that's it! Let's wrap this up!" shouted the photography director in the studio, his voice filled with satisfaction. "Great job, everyone!" he called out again, his enthusiasm palpable.

Lily heard the director's praise and smiled, bowing to express her gratitude to everyone involved in the photoshoot for the magazine cover. She then walked over to the director and thanked him personally.

"You did a fantastic job, Lily. Just wait until you see the final results," the director said with a warm smile before turning to discuss details with his staff.

Lily thanked him once more and excused herself. She walked towards the dressing room alongside her manager, Sullyoon, who had been present throughout the entire photoshoot.

"Great job, Lily," Sullyoon said, her voice full of pride as they walked side by side.

Lily smiled at the compliment. "Thank you, Sullyoon. Your support really means a lot."

As they entered the dressing room, Lily started to change out of her outfit and into something more comfortable. Sullyoon helped her with her things, organizing the clothes and accessories from the shoot.
