Yeona woke up in the middle of the night, crying. Her sobs echoed throughout the room. Chanmi was too tired and was still in a deep sleep. Sooyoung sighed, looks like she needs to take care of the maknae. Sooyoung went over to her, gingerly sitting on Yeona's bed and gently patted her back. "Are you okay?" She asked softly, which Yeona in reply vigorously shook her head.

"I — I dreamt of Narin unnie." Yeona replied between sobs, hastily attempting to wipe away the tears that just kept coming. "I — I need to cool off." Yeona quickly said, scooting off her bed while sniffing. "I'll come with you." Sooyoung blurted out on impulse, making Yeona look at her with a hopeful look. "Really?" She asked, her tone lifting a little as the corner of her mouth lifted up slightly as if showing a small smile. Sooyoung hesitantly nodded. By far this room was rather safe, so it should be alright to leave Chanmi here, besides who knows what might happen if Yeona went out alone?

The two walked together in silence, the once best friends feeling awkward with each other. "So, how's life?" Sooyoung asked, attempting to start a casual conversation and also to break the lingering tension between them. Yeona literally giggled at her question, finding it a little funny. "Worse than yours, that's for sure." She replied, her expression changing back to a serious one, making Sooyoung feel as if her heart was aching though she has no idea why and just brushed it off, forcing a smile on her face as she chuckled.

"Why though?" She asked, trying to get Yeona to talk more, knowing Yeona would always die off with conversations that does not involve topics she is very passionate about like food for example. Yeona smiled sadly before taking a deep breath in. "Well, you have Chanmi unnie as your lover so there's someone to constantly shower you with love despite the fact that everyone is going completely haywire." Yeona replied, turning her gaze back to the carpeted hallway in front of them.

"Well that's true." Sooyoung agreed, she too, ended up staying silent after that. After seconds of walking in silence, Yeona finally piped up, "I'm hungry, let's go to the kitchen." Sooyoung involuntarily shuddered at the mention of it, after all that was where she tried to kill herself and ended up killing one of their dearest friends instead. She brushed the memory aside, sighing before nodding. Well if the maknae wants to go then she should tag along just to make sure nothing bad happens to them.

Chanmi couldn't sleep. At. All.

No matter how much she tossed and turned in her bed, she could feel the eerie gut feeling that something bad was going to happen but she don't know what. She let out a frustrated huff, sitting herself upright on the bed as she ran her fingers through her hair, letting out an annoyed groan. The other two only went out for less than a minute and here she was, worrying about them like a mother. Though she was more worried for the maknae since she knows how she was technically the most traumatised out of the three of them.

Chanmi let out another frustrated sigh, plopping herself back onto the bed. Just when she was finally about to fall asleep, a scream rang through the manor, making Chanmi jump up and slip on her shoes, dashing out of the room to the direction of the scream. She knew it. She knew something bad was going to happen. What now?

Chanmi's eyes widened as her jaw fell open at the sight of Sooyoung lying on the ground with a knife stabbed into her heart as she laid emotionlessly. Yeona was curled up into a ball, hugging her knees together as she wailed out, crying.

She quickly turned away from the scene, too shock to comprehend what just happened as fresh tears fell from her eyes. Sooyoung is now dead.

Sooyoung is now dead

Sooyoung is now dead

Now it's just her and Yeona

5 down and 2 more to go
