Days passed with Star's "moving on routine". She really created rules for her to avoid and forget her feelings for Ten.

She's been avoiding him and his gaze. Same goes with Ten, who obviously changed a little. He became quiet and less hyped unlike before where he smiled a lot. He became serious in his activities that even his co-members can't take. He's been very busy and he seems to want to be busier, probably because he doesn't want any distractions that his mind may do.

They both suffer from heart aches. They both cry at night. They are both doing their best to move on. They are both doing everything to forget each other. Now, they became strangers.

"It's already spring but your face draws winter." Seomin said beside Star who has been frowning while chewing her sandwich. They're on the practice room, taking a break.

"What's the matter?" Chahyun asked as he sat beside Star. They're only sitting on the floor while resting their backs on the room's large mirrors.

"As if she'll answer you." Seomin stated then she munched her sandwich.

"Yeah right. I've been asking the same question for several times." Chahyun agreed and drank her water from the bottle.

"Have you talked to your family?" Seomin asked. Star just looked at her and shook her head. "Do you want to?" She added and Star just shrugged.

"Seomin! Come here!" Someone from the other side of the room called Seomin, and Star didn't bother to look at that person. Seomin just stood up and went to him. The two left girls just followed her by looking at her.

They both sighed at the same time. They looked at each other and Chahyun laughed. Star just smiled timidly.

"You funny creature, you broke up with him and then you'll be like that? Aren't you happy? He's at the other room, rehearsing for their debut stage. Sooner or later, their teasers will be released. That's what you want right?"

Star stared at her for a while then smiled, "I made the right choice, right?"

"No. It's the left choice." Then Chahyun grinned. Star just raised her right eyebrow and gave Chahyun a light hit on her shoulder.

"Such a dead joke."

"Hahaha. I'm just trying to make you smile."

"You failed, because your joke is a failure as well!" Star exclaimed.

"At least I'm still prettier than you."

Star started laughing, "Hahaha! Dream on!"

"Success! Mission to make Star smile or laugh, accomplished!" She exclaimed while raising her fists as if she won a big price.

"You still look like a stupid."

"Yah. You're so harsh!" Chahyun said while acting hurt. She even clutched her chest to show pain. She then started singing like a fool, "YOU HUUUURT ME~ So bad. So bad. YOU HUUUUUUUURT ME~" she even matched it with the choreography of EXO.

"Stop it! Hahahahaha!"

"Not until you die."

"You fool!" Star just laughed at her as she continued dancing while sitting.

"She seems to be okay. Very okay." Ten said in his mind as he watches Star laughing with Chahyun.

He entered the practice room moments ago and he saw Star laughing and joking with Chahyun as if she doesn't have any problem. He's with the NCT U members plus Johnny, Hansol and Yuta. They all entered the room but Star haven't noticed them yet as she's busy chatting with Chahyun, plus there's a loud music that reduces the sound of the door and their voices.
