It was the day of their performance at the Water Bomb festival. The members had just arrived at the place, and already got inside the backstage. They were in their normal clothes, since they were planning to change their outfits at the dressing rooms, which were located at the backstage itself. They didn't got time to dress up at the company, as the bus arrived bit early.
"Welcome Rêves to our festival. Hope all of you'll enjoy your time, performing and interacting with audience here", Mr Yoon, who was the main organizer of the festival, came to greet them. There were two more men who were on the both sides of him, as they smiled at them. "Thank you for inviting us. We'll give our best to our performance, and encourage the crowd as well", Mark bowed to him, while the rest of the members followed his actions.
"We wish the best for all of you. If y'all have any problems, just call any of them. He's Chanwook and he's Yuncheol", Mr Yoon introduced the two of the men to them. "Yeah, we will. Thanks again", Mark politely said. "We'll go now, since there are also other celebrities who have joined here. We'll meet after the performance", Mr Yoon bidded them byes, as they smiled and bowed once again.
But during the whole time, Ahrin was feeling uneasy. She thought maybe it was because of a new environment, then she noticed that the Chanwook guy was looking at her the whole time. She was getting creep vibes from him, feeling uncomfortable and disgusted by his stares and smirks. And the whole time, she was trying to avoid his gaze.
"Ahrin-ah, are you feeling alright?", Haechan called her out, and she snapped back from her thought. She shook her head, "It's nothing. Just zoned out", she lied. "We won't get to practice before the actual performance?", Anton asked, "Sadly no. The festival will begin soon, and our performance is third", Jeno explained. "Don't feel nervous. We've practiced enough. We'll do well", Mark cheered them up.
"Ofcourse!", Chenle yelled, "Do you already have microphone connected?", Jisung questioned, due to his loud voice. "Girls follow me to the dressing room", Karina ordered, and the four girls followed her to the room. "We should also get changed. We don't have time, so better speed up", Renjun told them, as the boys also got into the changing rooms.
"This top is so cute!", Ningning exclaimed, "All the celebrities colour theme is green?", Minjeong asked, "Yeah, think so", Giselle answered. "Girls, we don't have enough time. We've to be quick", Karina scolded them, "Yeah, 'mom'. No need to nag at us", Giselle joked. "You both are same age", Ningning reminded them.
"But I'm months younger than her", Giselle grinned, "You're still going to age as years pass", Karina rolled her eyes. "Can y'all oldies shut up. I'm trying to do my makeup", Minjeong lightly yelled. "Who are you to call us oldies?", Giselle and Karina questioned in sync. "Technically she's correct", Ningning laughed, "Ning Yizhuo, you better keep that mouth closed", Giselle told her.
Ningning zipped up her lips, but then she realized that something was missing. She looked back towards the vanity, and saw Ahrin was combing her hair, not uttering a single word. "Ahrin-ah, are you okay?", the chinese asked. The girl glanced at them, and saw that now the four of them were staring at her, with a concerned look.
