Yuri slumps download against the couch with her face buried flat before letting out a sigh of discomfort. She then raises her head, glancing through the whole room until her eyes laid on Yujin who was the closest from her position. She extends her arm and tugs the younger's clothes, signaling her to sit by her side.

"Did something happen?" Yujin approaches the older with concern, "You've been sighing nonstop"

Yuri shakes her head. "Mhm," she replies plainly.

A few seconds after, Nako joins the two with her hands occupied with water bottles. She hands them to Yujin before sitting down beside the younger. "Well that's strange," she comments.

The younger raises her brow, "what is?" She rather finds it weirder for someone to comment about such things.

Nako didn't respond and stared at the figure across her. The younger follows and shifts her attention to the lively Chaewon.

"Pretty self-explanatory ain't it?" Nako asks.

Yujin could only nod at the older's question. It indeed is strange- or rather a rare sight to see a sighing Yuri and a lively Chaewon. In most cases, Yuri will always be that brat who is energetic while Chaewon will always be the one who's tired of everything. However, today seems to be different than the usual

"It's as if they swapped souls," she mumbled to herself.

"Hey, I can hear that you know," Yuri utters, complaining at the two talking while she softly punches the latter.

The two paused, glancing at the tired Yuri resting at Yujin's lap in surprise but shrugs it off after a couple of after. Their eyes once again shift to the brunette whose eyes are filled with enthusiasm.

"Hey now," Yuri lets out a slight chuckle, trying to grab the attention of the two. "Don't just ignore me here," she begs.

Unfortunately, the two didn't bother to respond to her calling. The poor blonde furrows her brow, forming a frown on her face. It felt rather bitter. It's nothing to sulk about but she couldn't help it. Perhaps she was just exhausted. Or maybe she's just used to the attention she receives. Whatever it may be, she certain that it doesn't sit well with her.

She gets up from her previous position and sighed once more before excusing herself from others. "I'll be back," she informs the two before walking away.

"Not so fast"

Everything was clear to Chaewon already. From the same warm breeze that touches against her pale soft skin to the small chatters ringing through her ears- she could tell it's another typical boring day of hers. That she simply just had to let the day pass by like she always does.

However, her assumption changed the moment she steps foot inside the karaoke room. Excitement rushes through her body as it welcomes her into a world she longed for. A world where she wished to sing. A world that is difficult to reach no matter the efforts she exerted.

Singing was her happiness. It is the only thing that keeps her from moving forward despite all the troubles she had been through. She believed that as long as she had the determination and hard work to pursue her dream then she could do it. She knew it's no "ask then you shall receive" matter yet she let her foolish mind get over her.

The happiness that she long knew became her greatest despair.

If only...

Suddenly, she felt someone tapping her shoulder. She turns in the woman's direction to see an unfamiliar woman with a worried look. She has Carmel blonde hair that sways over her delicate shoulder. She wore a simple yet exquisite outfit with a black crop top paired with jeans. How simple it is yet she looks stunning. Having a perfect face sure looks pleasing whatever the outfit.
