🥥⤷ ep 14 | Bad start

One month had quickly paced and it was now the end of December, the 31st actually.

Chen's diet had been going well, according to Mrs Kang. She was weighed each day, even after she reached her goal, making sure she did not immediately gain it back. Chenyug continued on with her diet, weighing in at around 43,5kg now.

She was looking a lot paler, which Mrs Kang thought was great since idols are supposed to have pale white skin. Except for that, her bones had started to become much more visible which slightly scared the girl.

With all the exercising she was doing, you'd think she would have started gaining muscle. But due to her insufficient intake of nutrients, she had not gained much at all.

Her members had told her several times that she looked like she had lost a lot of weight, but the girl just shrugged it off. Saying it was because she'd been working out a lot more, which wasn't a complete lie.

On the last day of 2016, she was with the dreamies dancing. She felt extremely tired and weak this day, not having slept well. This led to Chenyug not being able to dance her best, which Mrs Kang immediately picked up on. She noticed how the girl continued to mess up the same parts over and over and decided to let the others rest while she made the girl do it again and again.

Chenyug tried her best, she really did. Willing herself not to mess up, but she just couldn't do it. Normally it would not have been a problem, it wasn't even a hard move. Yet today it felt impossible. Her legs and arms were screaming for her to take a break. her body screaming for food and rest.

"Ugh, fine. Take a ten-minute break Chen, I'll be back and you will do it again, don't mess it up this time," Mrs Kang said before leaving the room, yet Chenyug didn't stop. She just continued on, doing it again and again.

"Chen Nonna, you should take a break. You look exhausted," Jisung said worriedly, seeing the tired look in her eyes and the way she could barely hold her arms up for more than five seconds to do the dance move.

"I will, I just need to succeed with this part," Jisung looked at the girl apprehensively but decided not to push it any further.

So she continued on, failing time and time again. She could feel herself starting to become a little dizzy but brushed it off. The dizziness was worsening by the second and she felt sick, a headache setting in and it felt like someone was banging her head with a hammer. Before she knew it, her body gave out and she fell down.

Jeno, who had been standing close by feeling worried for the girl sensing something might happen caught her before she completely blacked out.

"CHEN!" he yelled as he saw her faint and everyone ran over in worry.

"Someone call Taeyong" Mark ordered. After a few minutes, Taeyong barged through the door panting, sweat dripping down his forehead. As soon as he saw the girl he ran up to her, taking her from Jeno's arms.

"She won't wake up?" he asked the boys who shook their heads, "no matter what we do," Renjun replied with worry in his voice. "Okay, someone call an ambulance," he said and DOnghyuck complied, taking out his phone just as the door opened revealing Mrs Kang.

She looked at Chenyug and then at Taeyong, her face emotionless.

"What happened here? Shouldn't you be with nct127?" she asked the boy, not caring that Chenyug was passed out on the floor, Taeyong holding onto her shoulders, leaning her body on his lap.

"Chen passed out!" he said in a cold voice, feeling extremely annoyed at the woman's nonchalance.

"Ugh, weak girl" she scoffed and everyone looked at her in shock. What did she just say?
