"weird... Aera hasn't reply any of my message. She haven't seen the message too" Vernon said to Dino. "maybe try to call her" Dino said. Vernon tried to call Aera but aera still didn't pick up. Vernon shakes her head.

"Guyyyysss, have Aera texted you guys?? Using my number?" Dino said to all of them who are in the practice room. All of them check their phones. And again, none of then receives any message from Aera.

"Why? What happen?" Joshua asked.
"Aera hasn't reply vernon's message, and havent seen the message, and... didn't answer vernon calls" Dino said.

All of them starts to get worried and immediately texted Aera bu texting Dino's number.

"I spammed and still nothing" Woozi said.

"Hyung, Try calling Sejeong noona. Maybe she's with Aera now" Dokyeom said.

"Druuuuddd, Druuuuuuuddd." Someone calls Jun.

"It's sejeong noona" Jun said and answer the calls. Jun puts the call on a speaker mode.

"Jun-aaa, are you guys practicing now?" Sejeong asked. "Yes, but we're currently taking a break right now." Jun said. "Is Aera with you guys?" Sejeong asked. "She's not. We're about to call you just now to ask the same thing." Jun said. "Well, she's not here too. You know she's never late. She also didn't reply any of my messages. The last time we chat was around 10:00am if im not mistaken. And she's using Dino's number." Sejeong said. "Noona, you should just go home. We'll check on Aera" Scoups who is beside Jun said it to Sejeong. "All right then. Update me about Aera. Goodbye" Sejeong said before hanging up.
