Everything was fine as INFINITE was supposed to debut as 7 boys. Yet, 2 months before their debut, a 8th member is added: a female member. Shin Ri A. She becomes the new maknae, INFINITE becomes a co-ed group, and RiA isn't used to 7 VERY cute boys...
I was relaxing back at the dorm with my members, after the "She's Back" goodbye stage. I had gotten a call from a childhood friend, who became a idol 3 years before I did. Her group is really popular now, and I'm wondering why she's calling me.

"Gyu Ri unnie? Why are you calling me now?" I was in shock to find my childhood bestfriend, Gyu Ri calling me.
"Ria-sshi? Hi! I need to tell you something. I just need you for this 'mission'..." She was snickering as she said that. What is Gyu Ri trying to do?!
"Ah...okay...tell me now."
"KBS wants us to do a special stage for next week's Music Bank. We're performing Jumping, Mister, and Lupin in at least 8 minutes." You know what the funny thing is? These are the names of KARA's songs. What...and why ME?
"Why am I needed? Is it because I'm a rookie?"
"Maybe. They wanted you to perform with us. I'm still getting more info on it. I just heard about it."
"Ah, okay. I can't blame you if you're just now hearing about this." I said, very puzzled.
"I'll call you again once I learn more about it. See you, Ri." She hung up on me and I put my phone away. Well, it's nice to perform with KARA. So, I was happy about it. I'm not telling my members though. They'll find out sooner or later.
"Ria?" Sunggyu oppa was looking at me. And as soon as he said that, the others were looking too.
"Who was that?" He asked, with one eyebrow raised.
"Oh, it was a friend of mine, Gyu Ri. She called me for a...um...private reason."
"Okay, if you say so." He looked a bit worried. This guy...he knows that I'm 18, and that I can take care of myself.
