The morning sunlight filtered through the blinds, casting a warm glow over the dorm as Y/n checked his phone. As usual, his mind was prepped for the day's chaotic schedule, expecting back-to-back appointments, rehearsals, and meetings. But as he scrolled through the group's calendar, something strange caught his eye.
No rehearsals. No interviews. No photoshoots.
A day off?
Y/n blinked. It had been ages since they'd had a full, unscheduled day since MAMA, and for a moment, he didn't believe it. After double-checking to make sure he wasn't missing anything, a small smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
This was the perfect opportunity to give the girls a break—away from the stress and cameras.
Throwing on a hoodie, he knocked on each dorm room door, rousing the group from their sleep.
"Wake up, everyone! I've got something planned."
Giselle was the first to emerge, hair sticking out in all directions, still wrapped in her blanket. She rubbed her eyes groggily. "Is it breakfast? Tell me you made pancakes..."
Y/n chuckled. "Not quite. But get ready. We're going to the park. I made a lunch basket for us."
The reaction from the rest of the members was similar—confused but intrigued. Winter poked her head out from her room, eyes half-closed. "A park? What are we, in a drama? And why is it sound romantic" She yawned loudly.
Karina followed suit, still looking half-asleep. "A park sounds... nice, I guess?"
"Hey, we can't just stay indoors when the sky is this nice." Y/n grinned, clapping his hands together. "Now, let's get moving."
An hour later, the group found themselves standing at the entrance of a quaint city park. It wasn't grand or flashy, just a small, peaceful spot nestled away from the usual bustling city life. A winding path led to a pond, ducks paddling lazily in the water, and a few bicycles stood nearby, available for rent.
"A park, really?" Winter raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms. "This was your big plan?"
Giselle stretched, taking in the scene. "I'm not complaining. It's nice to have some quiet time."
Y/n held up a tote bag filled with snacks. "Look, we've been running around nonstop for weeks. A relaxing day in the sun will do us all some good."
Karina eyed him suspiciously. "What kind of snacks?"
Y/n smirked, pulling out bags of sandwiches. "The good kind."
That seemed to do the trick. With renewed enthusiasm, the girls grabbed a few bikes from the rental stand, gearing up for a leisurely ride along the park's paths. Y/n followed, feeling confident this would be a simple, peaceful day.
Well, until Ningning almost ran over a duck.
"Watch it!" Y/n called out as the youngest member veered off course, narrowly avoiding the waddling creature.
"I swear these bikes are taller than I remember!" Ningning complained, trying to steady herself. "Or maybe I've gotten shorter?"
Meanwhile, Karina wobbled dangerously as she tried to pedal forward, clearly struggling. "I think I forgot how to ride one of these things..."
Before Y/n could offer help, he was too busy dealing with his own issues. As soon as he pushed off, his bike's front wheel jerked violently to the side, and he lost his balance, crashing into a nearby bush. The sound of his spectacular wipeout echoed through the park, causing an eruption of laughter from the girls.
