Broken

37

The rest of the year went by with no real accidents, mostly because Mina and Tzuyu had some fun the night Chaeyoung spent in the hospital and refused to let the girl in. It was summer, the youngest ones had just graduated elementary school, but they were all going over to visit the girls overseas, so neither Jihyo nor Dahyun were coming back for the event. Papa Im and mama Chou made sure to video call the girls so they could be there too, and it was great, Tzuyu cried a little when she saw that her sister was watching, and Nayeon took advantage of having her sister connected, as always.

Just a few days later, it would be time for them to head out, for a vacation that might change everything. Two days before they leave, the girls decide to go and eat out together, they would visit both Dahyun and Jihyo's, but wouldn't see each other for the first week, so, might as well spend time together now. The next days would consist of packing, Tzuyu being too excited to actually do anything, Nayeon wondering how her sister might have changed by now and Chaeyoung trying to get her girlfriends packed properly. Mina was way too relaxed about everything, and Momo joined her in the 'no worries' team.

"Hey kids, what can I do for you today?" Jeongyeon greets after they sit down.

"What's up, Jeong. I think two iced americanos, one lemonade, no sugar, one white chocolate and one strawberry frappuccino, for now." Momo answers while the others are still riled up.

"On it." The girl tries to wink, fails miserably, and goes off to place their order.

Momo chuckles, she could be cute when she wasn't trying. They managed to work their friendship with the clueless couple, it had taken a few scoldings from Jihyo, some ground rules (about disclosure) from Nayeon and a speech on how big of idiots they all were from Dahyun for them to actually start opening up to the couple. Everything was much better and easier after Nayeon's visit to her sister, Jihyo had a talk with her about everything and was even considering dating, if she could, so they all just went for it and found out, the two were, truly, really nice and fun to hang out with.

"Here ya go." Jeongyeon comes back with their drinks. "So, you guys excited about vacation? Except for all the homework, I mean."

"Thanks, kid." Nayeon is the one to answer. "We are already done with homework, though. It took us about two days to finish?"

"What?" The girl is genuinely surprised.

"Yeah, we are all going to travel the day after tomorrow. So we had to finish it before we go." Mina explains.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Sana and I are going to Osaka next week, so we've been putting off the school work."

"Get it done as soon as you can, it takes more time than you might think it will." Momo warns.

"If you say so. We've been meaning to get to it tonight, though." Jeongyeon scratches her head a little. "Alright, I have to get back to work, try not to break the table again."

"That table was not broken and it was Dahyun who decided to dance on top of it, and you know that!" Chaeyoung protested as the waitress walks away laughing.

The incident would be held against them forever, as it seemed. But they had fun with it anyways. The afternoon went by slowly, at some point, Sana showed up to pick up her girlfriend, once again, the girls explained they should get to their homeworks soon, if they wanted to be done by the time they left for Osaka. The group talked some more, and then it was time for them all to leave, each finding their own way. Sana and Jeongyeon headed out wherever they were going, the trio went out to drop Chaeyoung, the one who lived closer, and then proceeded to Tzuyu's. Nayeon walked Momo to her house before heading home herself, both had to finish packing.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Mo." Nayeon bids her girlfriend goodbye.

"Maybe, I can't guarantee we'll finish packing until last minute." Momo chuckles when she gets slapped on the shoulder.

"Well, I will make sure to be. But we can just call if we need to."

"Sure. Call me when you get home?"

"You know it's just four blocks, right?"

"Still, call me."

"Yes ma'am." Then Nayeon pecks her lightly and walks off.

The next day was, as anyone that knew the girls predicted, a mess of packing, panicking and frantic calls to each other. Mina and Momo were the first ones to finish, they were the 'don't worry' team, Nayeon was next, already knowing what she should do, her problem was that she got distracted by almost everything she found in the process. Tzuyu was useless, so her dad was packing for her, with little inputs from his daughter here and there, which made everything all that much slower. Chaeyoung was just panicking all over, she managed to put everything she wanted to take on her bed, but actually putting everything in the suitcase was proving to be a challenge.

Jeonghoon took it upon himself to finish everything for his sister, who was, now, just talking to herself in a corner. The boy was NOT about to forgo his vacation as an only child because that useless cub couldn't close a damn suitcase. They were all leaving in the same flight, the older couple would get another flight once they reached Alberta, their parents thought it would be better for the two youngest to fly off with their unnies, so together they went. The flight attendants may have held a grudge against the group once they landed.

Nayeon and Momo would be changing terminals to get their next flight, so the group just bid each other farewell and the couple promised to wait for the four girls with lots of food the next weekend, they were having a week apart, then would gather at Jihyo's for another week and head out for Dahyun's on the next one. So, the trio proceeds to baggage claim, and the older duo moves on to continue their journey. This vacation was set to be very important to all of them.
