The morning after their rooftop picnic, the air was filled with a sense of anticipation. As the sun spilled golden light into their shared dorm, each member stirred awake, still riding the high of the previous night’s bonding.

“Good morning, everyone!” Jihyo called out cheerfully as she shuffled into the common room. Her energy was contagious, and one by one, the members began to emerge from their rooms, still sleepy but smiling.

Momo was the last to join, her hair a wild mess and her eyes barely open. “What’s for breakfast?” she mumbled, rubbing her eyes.

“We have toast and jam!” Dahyun said, already at the kitchen counter, preparing breakfast. “And I saved some jokbal for you, Momo.”

Momo perked up at the mention of her favorite dish, her eyes widening with delight. “You’re the best, Dahyun!”

As the group gathered around the table, the atmosphere was lively. Nayeon and Jeongyeon sat close together, stealing glances and playful nudges, while Tzuyu and Sana shared a quiet conversation, occasionally breaking into soft laughter.

“Did you enjoy last night?” Tzuyu asked Sana, her eyes shining.

“It was perfect,” Sana replied, her smile brightening the room. “I loved every moment.”

“Hey, lovebirds!” Nayeon called out teasingly. “Save some of that sweetness for later!”

The teasing drew laughter, and Tzuyu felt warmth bloom in her chest. She squeezed Sana’s hand under the table, a subtle but meaningful gesture that only Sana noticed.

As breakfast wrapped up, Jihyo cleared her throat, trying to gain everyone’s attention. “Okay, everyone! I think it’s time for a little team meeting. We need to talk about something important.”

The atmosphere shifted slightly as the members focused on Jihyo.

“I think we should help Mina and Chaeyoung confess to each other,” Jihyo announced, her determination clear. “They’ve been dancing around their feelings for too long, and it’s time we do something about it.”

“I’m all in!” Dahyun exclaimed, her excitement bubbling over. “Mina and Chaeyoung would be adorable together!”

“Do you think they’ll go for it?” Jeongyeon asked, raising an eyebrow.

“They better!” Nayeon chimed in. “I’ve been waiting for this moment since forever!”

Jihyo nodded, her resolve strengthening. “We’ll create the perfect scenario for them. Let’s make it a group outing, and I’ll guide them to a moment where they can’t help but confess.”

The other members exchanged eager glances, excitement coursing through them.

“Let’s go to the park,” Tzuyu suggested. “We can have a picnic and set the mood.”

“Great idea!” Sana agreed, her eyes sparkling. “And we can pair off in groups to create more opportunities for Mina and Chaeyoung to be together.”

As plans were formed, the group buzzed with energy. They decided to keep the outing casual but romantic, ensuring Mina and Chaeyoung would have plenty of moments alone to spark their feelings.

Later that afternoon, they arrived at the park, sunlight filtering through the trees and casting playful shadows on the ground. The air was fresh, filled with the scents of blooming flowers and the sounds of laughter nearby.

They spread out their picnic blanket on a lush patch of grass and began unpacking the food. Jihyo took charge of organizing the snacks while Momo immediately gravitated towards the jokbal.
