Hello hater ❧ Ssamyul

"Say, why do you hate me"

Chaewon pauses, facing back at Yuri as their eyes lock with one another. "Ask that yourself, " she plainly answers and continues to walk away.

The latter just stares Chaewon walling father away from her sight. She takes a step forward, seemingly hesitant to call her out once more. "Unnie- ah nevermind, " she mumbles to herself and proceeds to follow the older without saying a word.

"Oh? Where have you two been?" Hitomi breaks off the unpleasant silence hanging around the atmosphere. She first gazes at Chaewon, showing a sympathetic look then shifts to Yuri with a glare.

"Just went to the comfort room," Chaewon replies, her words shallow and cold.

Hitomi sighs and motions towards Yuri. "What did you do this time?" She asks, walking side by side with the latter.

"Nothing really," Yuri shrugs. "She's probably just in a bad mood as usual"

"You sure adjust well for someone like you," Hitomi says.

"Is that supposed to be a compliment?" The latter laughs. "It's not like it's the first time I've known them or something."

The Japanese girl pauses from her tracks which the other follows. "So you're telling you knew Chaewon unnie long ago?" She asks, raising her brows.

Yuri gives a light tap at her, a smile crept into her face. "Take a guess, " she says before leaving.

"Oh, Yuri unnie! Chaewon unnie! Good timing we're going, " someone comes yelling, waving at the named people.

Chaewon furrows her brows, confused at the younger's words. As far as she knows, no one planned anything for this day. She faces at the younger mouthing "where" which earned a sigh, a disappointed one.

"Unnie, you didn't know?" Yujin raises a brow, taping her head lightly in disappointment. "We're going to a noraebang. Didn't Yuri unnie tell you?"

She shakes her head in response. Her eyes shift back at the named person in which the others follow. All eyes were on the named person but she wasn't bothered at all. As expected, she is humming to songs as usual.

A few seconds after, the named person takes her earphones away, shoving it back into her pocket. She looks at the others, her eyes flickering in pure confusion. By the looks of it, they were staring at her not too long ago.

"W-what?" she asks, stuttering. "Don't look at me as if I've committed a crime"

To her surprise, no one responded to her "question" and proceeds to stare at her once more. Sure, she's used with the attention directing only at her but not this type. The atmosphere feels like poison, breathe it in and she'll surely collapse. But of course, it's just a mere exaggeration.

"Ah!" she gasps, snapping her fingers as she recalls her task" "I totally forgot about that. Sorry hehe"

Frustration gradually moves it's way to their faces yet they remain calm. The others roll their eyes while Chaewon looks away at the named person. Her eyes roam around the area, counting everyone in her sight. Surprisingly, only four of them are available at the moment.

"That's strange. We're not even complete," Chaewon mumbles.

"Oh, that's because they are going to a different destination," Nako informs her.

Chaewon nods and makes her way outside but Yujin blocks her.

"Sorry to ruin your mood but you're coming with us, " she says, shaking her head. "Don't even bother. They already left."
