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...
It was time for our comeback stage at Mnet. Most of us were ready. RiA was still getting her makeup done. Since she's the visual, she has to look her best. She planned to dye her hair a dark blue for this comeback, and she did so. To be honest, the blue hair suits her better than her normal brown hair.

RiA soon came out afterwards, in her Hysterie outfit. Hysterie was the fourth song on the EP, and we'd be performing it for each comeback stage, or well...most of them. When our Hysterie stage was done, we changed to our BTD outfits. Since RiA was the last to get ready the first time, she was the first to get ready the second time.
RiA's POV
After our comeback stage, we went backstage. I was originally planning to relax, but that was taken aback. Our manager wanted to talk to me alone, for some reason. I followed him, and he told me something I'd never expect.
"RiA? How would you like to perform solo? For a special stage?"
I was super shocked! I'd never think my voice would be good enough to be solo. I was a lead vocal, not a MAIN vocal, but I was still thinking.
"I...eo..I'll do it!" I said, jumping full with joy.
-2 weeks later-
It had taken at least over 2 weeks to record to song. I had to design the EP cover, too. That was a lot of work to be honest...

When I showed the design to the CEO, he said he liked it! I had already finished recording all 3 songs on the single, but the people who I showed it to next were my members.
"You're going solo?" Woo Hyun asked.
"No, I'm not. It's only for a special stage. Besides, even if I were going solo, I'd tell you guys first." I said.
"Well, that's good! First, you perform a special stage with KARA sunbaes, and now you're releasing a special single album?" L said.
"That's slightly unbelievable. I'm...a little jealous." Sung Kyu said.
"Of course you'd say that, hyung. You're the main vocal, and you want to-" Sung Yeol said, but he was cut off by the fact Sung Kyu put his hand over his mouth and said, "Shut up."
Everyone laughed.
"So, when are you supposed to perform?" Sung Jong asked.
"Next week's Music Bank episode. So, I have time to prepare."
"Good for you, RiA. We can help you if you need anything." Hoya said.
"Thanks, guys. I knew I can count on you." I said, giving a heartwarming smile.
