Unspoken Feelings ( A love that defines the odds )

11. The Path Ahead

As the initial excitement from the music video premiere began to settle, TWICE found themselves thrust into the whirlwind of interviews and performances that followed. Each event felt electric, with fans buzzing about the “Satzu” moments in the video. The atmosphere was vibrant, but for Sana and Tzuyu, it was also a constant reminder of the new challenges they faced.

In the days following the release, the members noticed that the dynamics in the group had shifted slightly. There was an undeniable energy surrounding Sana and Tzuyu, an unspoken understanding that permeated their interactions. While the rest of the members supported them, it was clear that they were navigating uncharted territory.

One afternoon, during a break between schedules, the group gathered in their shared dorm. Nayeon suggested they play a game to lighten the mood. “Let’s play Truth or Dare! It’ll be fun!” she exclaimed, and the other members cheered in agreement.

Sana felt a flutter of nervousness at the idea. Truth or Dare could lead to unexpected questions, especially now that their relationship was out in the open. Still, the excitement in the room was infectious, and she decided to join in, glancing at Tzuyu for reassurance.

As the game began, laughter echoed through the dorm, with playful dares and hilarious truths being exchanged. Sana felt a warmth envelop her as she watched Tzuyu interact with the other members, her laughter infectious. Yet, a part of her remained anxious about what might come up next.

When it was Tzuyu’s turn, she confidently chose “Dare.” Nayeon grinned mischievously. “I dare you to kiss Sana on the cheek!”

Sana’s cheeks flushed at the suggestion. The moment felt electric, and she felt the weight of the other members’ gazes. Tzuyu leaned in without hesitation, planting a gentle kiss on Sana’s cheek. The room erupted into cheers, and Sana felt her heart race, both from the thrill of the moment and the warmth of Tzuyu’s affection.

“Okay, your turn!” Tzuyu said, playfully nudging Sana. She felt a rush of joy, but she was also apprehensive. Would she be daring enough?

Sana took a deep breath. “Truth,” she said, feeling the tension in the air.

“Boring!” Jeongyeon teased, but the rest of the members were eager for her answer.

“What’s the most romantic thing you’ve done for Tzuyu?” Dahyun asked, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.

Sana’s heart raced as she thought back to their private moments. “I... I made her a playlist once. It had all our favorite songs. I thought it would be a sweet way to show her how much she means to me,” she replied, feeling a shy smile spread across her face.

“Aw, that’s so cute!” Momo cooed, and the other members chimed in with their approval.

“Okay, my turn!” Sana declared, the game bringing out her playful side. She turned to Nayeon. “Truth or dare?”

“Dare!” Nayeon said confidently, raising an eyebrow.

Sana smirked. “I dare you to confess your biggest crush in the group!”

Nayeon feigned horror, and the room erupted into laughter. “You little—!” But she ultimately relented, bursting into laughter. “Fine! It’s... Tzuyu!”

Tzuyu turned bright red, her eyes widening as the other members teased her mercilessly. Sana felt a surge of pride for Tzuyu and the bond they had developed. They were all just having fun, celebrating their friendship, and the atmosphere felt right.

As the game continued, Sana felt lighter, the earlier tension slipping away. But as they approached the end of the game, the final question landed on Tzuyu again.
