Back to Korea from Vietnam. Jihyo didn't want to be ignorant of public opinion. She could search her name herself but for the sake of her mind, Nayeon reads in lieu of her; serving as a bit of filter.
"It's good they're not using each other for clout."
"Jihyo Daniel are very professional."
"Someone else is using them! ...Duh, it's business relationship. PEOPLE, it's right in front of you—AND STILL DON'T GET IT?!" Nayeon couldn't help reacting, "You must've REALLY been frustrated trying to make your truth known."
"Are people born just yesterday? Are romantic relationships supposed to be 'professional'? And what of the other celebrities acknowledging each other, our sunbaes? NOT professional?!" Jeongyeon is confused.
"Tell Sana 'I love you' in public already", Momo suggests. "That would definitely end world ignorance."
"I don't wanna get her in trouble. There must be another way", Jihyo responds.
There is this feeling of failure that brings about the need to work harder for truth and peace of mind. But they're running out of ideas. And there isn't much time to think in the first place.
Twice flies again to Japan the next day. For 3-days straight, Twicelights in Nagoya would take place. The last leg for 2019. As of now, Jihyo could only rely on methods she's been doing hoping that someday, it would work. After the first show day, she goes to the Vlive chat.
[Once hi I was so worried for a second because I thought nobody came in]
[Oh it is fiery Friday. We set Nagoya on fire today too]
[You can tell I'm Jihyo right away? How do you know kekeke daebak my tone keke why there's nothing about my tone]
[I'm watching When the Camellia Blooms lately. I started watching when I was in Vietnam and I'm at Ep 15 now. It's so fun. Spoiler is prohibited. If you give spoiler, I'll not chat with you hehehe]
[Ah I think I saw spoiler just now. Stop right there. I'm leaving]
[you knew I won't leave you actually knew!!! Don't pretend to be a fool. Always saying you are but not really. You always make fun of us]
Once, you're not fools right? Clout. Professional. The world does not know cause they're not watching directly. But Once, you're watching. So, you know what the world doesn't, right? You're not making fun of me like that, right?
Jihyo shakes head swinging thoughts away, "Maybe it can't be helped to have some of those everywhere. Even among Once."
[because I'm sleepy, random words came out from me hehe]
[Anyway now we are, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow having a concert and MAMA is coming. I can feel it's year-end once we perform on MAMA]
[Oh the best thing I ever did this year? Well this year I don't really know. I don't want to look back]
[there will be more good events next year so I'm looking forward to those]
Some words aren't said but something is conveyed. If only Jihyo could spill the truth in details. If only it's not the company's statement against hers. If only she had more power beyond being Twice leader.
If only she has full control of her life including her private life. What would she had done differently to not despise 2019? The year when she realizes precious love with her precious people.
[though there must be good things around, difficult times and bad things happen too. So I'm more grateful to the good things, they are precious]
[hehe anyways I'm here to say hello for a short while. Now I'm going to sleep! Tomorrow comes again. Bye everyone, good night. Have a good dream hehe]
