SON CHAEYOUNG

"Chaengi... You have to tell Momo unnie." Mina said, looking at me with concern.

"But I don't even know if she can handle it."

"She has to. The important thing is that Dahyun's awake." she said.

"But the problem is, he can't remember."

"Then we'll help him remember. No matter what it takes." she said, smiling at me softly.

"Now call her." she ordered.

"Why can't you do it?" I asked.

"Oh! Sana unnie's calling me! Bye babe!" she excused, kissing me on my cheek before running off to the opposite direction Sana noona is.

Remember the time she abandoned you, Son Chaeyoung...

HIRAI MOMO

"Babygirl, Chaeyoung-ssi's calling you." Jin oppa said, handing me my phone.

"Thanks oppa." I said, smiling at him and putting my laptop aside.

"You're welcome. Don't leave your phone, okay? There might be updates." he said, getting out of my room.

"I won't." I replied, accepting Chaeng's call.

"Hello?"

[Dahyun just woke up.]

"REALLY?!" I practically yelled on the phone, jumping up and down on my bed.

[Yeah, noona. But...]

Oh no... There's a but...

[There's bad news.]

I knew it!

"What is it Chaeng? I can handle it." I said, convincing myself that I can.

[He can't remember. The accident, us, his name, us and even you.]

No... No... This can't be happening...

[But don't worry, noona! Irene noona told us that it's only temporary. It'll last for a few weeks or so and we're already trying to make him remember. I promise we'll handle this. Don't worry.]

"But... What if... He ends up not remembering me at all?" I asked, on the verge of tears.

[We'll make sure that won't happen. We'll show him pictures of all of us, noona.]

Will that work?

[You're probably doubting it, aren't you?]

"Ho-"

[Noona, trust me. Trust him.]

Should I?

"I will..." I trailed off before we both said our goodbyes and ended the call.

I went out of my room and headed towards the kitchen where Jin oppa is, drinking coffee from his favorite mug.

"Oh! How did it go?" he asked, putting his mug in the sink.
