Wendy lifted her gaze from her phone’s screen to follow the direction Yeri pointed at, only to see an advertisement for some kind of amusement park. “I don’t know.. Don’t you think you should be asking Irene or manager-nim questions like that? Wait- are you even keeping up well with your school work?”
지난; –past“Remember what we used to do as kids?”
“I wish I hadn’t been such a fool back then.”
“You always have to bring that up, don’t you?”
“I never forgot, how could I?”
“Those were truly the good times.”
“No matter how much time that passes, memories stay the same.”
“How can you not remember that?”
“Do you think we can still be like that?”
“So should we just act like nothing happened at all?”현재; –present“I like how we are now, it’s simple.”
“Can I trust you?”
“How can you be so sure about this?”
“It doesn’t matter if it’s over a cup of coffee or sitting out in the cold, I just want to spend time with you.”
“Whatever it is, it can wait until after this.”
“I have something to show you, but first you have to promise me that you will keep it a secret.”미래; –future“I’m planning to go away, somewhere far.”
“Tomorrow? I haven’t thought so far ahead.”
“Don’t ask me about my future, just hearing the words makes me stressed.”
“I want to change, I just don’t know how.”
“Will you be by my side, forever?”
“Don’t forget what promised to do.”
“We have the whole world at our feet, we just have to walk.”
“What will happen now?”
“Can we go there?”
She did not mind answering the sleepy member and instead she focused onto what she was originally doing. Finally, once the show ended, she glanced at the girl who threatened her, “Did you wash up already? I think I still see your eyeliner there,” she leaned closer with her tiny eyes squinted. Bringing her hand closer, she gave the drowsy girl a soft poke on the cheek. “I bet you haven’t washed yet,”
“Seulgi-aah. I’m not in the mood for that..” She whined softly, rubbing at her eyes once more as she sat up a little. “I did wash my face… just not very thoroughly.. I would’ve been sleeping if it wasn’t for you still hanging out here watching dramas… Honestly, you should be happy I took out those blue contacts..” She yawned before flinging her arms around Seulgi’s neck. “Carry me to my bed, please?”
Wendy sighed deeply as she looked up at the other, crossing her arms over her chest. “I’ve already apologised for running into you.. How do I owe you so?”
As she had finished the oh so heartbreaking story of her getting all wet due to the sudden rainstorm she blinked rapidly at the female before her. Being obviously not sure if she should accept the jacket and wear it, or not. Wouldn’t the other freeze without the jacket? But.. she just got rid of a cold, so another one wasn’t needed any time soon! Without further thoughts on the issue she takes the jacket, giving a thankful bow of her head. With her wet strands sticking to her face she throws on the dry jacket, letting out a quiet sigh. ❝ ━ thank you so much! I’m good, it’s just a little cold.. but the jacket will warm me up! ❞ A few quick nods, lips curling into a bright smile. ❝ ━ I live.. about another 30 minutes of walk away. ❞ Cheeks inflate slightly, letting out a huff. ❝ ━ Really? I’d.. actually love to, if that’s not too much to ask for, that is! I’d really, really like a warm shower as quick as possible. ❞
Seungwan was quick to catch on to the others confusion, slightly thrusting her jacket closer to the other. “Really, don’t worry about me. I’ve lived in Canada for…” She tapped her chin. For how long had she lived in Canada? Ever since she came back to Korea to live her dream as an idol, the memories of Canada had become distant and the duration of her time there had gotten blurry. “I’ve lived in Canada for like… nine years? Something like that.. So I can handle a little cold. But given that you’re a ballet dancer, I don’t think they’ll appreciate you getting sick, right?” Wendy smiled brightly as she tied up her recently dyed brown hair into a messy ponytail. “No need to thank me.. I’m glad to help anyone.” She spoke the words happily, mentally adding something along the lines of ‘… mainly people who don’t immediately trip when they recognise me’. “Oh! My dorm is probably a… five minute walk? You can warm up there if you want.. I don’t think the others are there.. but even if they are, I highly doubt they’ll mind me helping someone out..” She laughed softly, reaching out a hand to the other. “I’m Seungwan, by the way… It’d be kinda weird to go home with someone whose name you don’t even know.”

❝ ━ Because.. ❞ Amalie takes a deep breath, closing her eyes for mere seconds. Because of course the bus came too late, causing her to walk. Of course! As she opens her eyes once more she’s looking down at herself. Clothes are soaking, even her hair is. A free shower! Kidding, actually she wasn’t amused at all. Not only was she freezing now, no, she also had to take an actual shower, and who would’ve guessed? She’d come too late to ballet practice! Again. Or she was just not going at all. Gaze wanders up to the older female, lower lip jutting out into a pout. ❝ ━ The bus wasn’t coming, so I figured I’d be faster if I walk.. then it started to rain, and to make it even better someone drove through a puddle and the whole water splashed onto me.. now I look like a wet poodle! ❞
Wendy frowned at the sight of the other, taking off the hood of her jacket that had been protecting her during the sudden storm that had seemed to have broken loose. She slid out of her coat as she was telling the story of how she’d ended up drenched before she sighed, offering her coat to the younger. “Are you okay, though? Take my jacket… you might catch a cold…” She then tilted her head. “I don’t think going to ballet practice looking like this.. Do you live close to here? Because my dorm isn’t very far and if you’ve got a long way to go, you’re more than welcome to take a shower and warm up first before going on your merry way again, miss.”
♛ — She dramatically tossed her hands up in the air and let out a loud groan, a frown plastered on her face at the older girl’s words. “Well, unnie! I thought you knew me better than that!” She huffed her cheeks and crossed her arms, staring indignantly at her before she suddenly burst out laughing. She could never been too serious. “Yes, it probably does! Good thinking, unnie. Shall we go?” She tilted her head as well, crinkling her nose at the other as she linked arms with her.
Seungwan laughed quietly as she stared at Sooyoung, more entertained than anything else by the younger’s reactions. “I know you better than that… But I also know it’s hilarious to make fun of you whenever the opportunity rises, like it did when you said that you don’t mix well with the cold.” She snickered, “And given that you told that to a Canadian out of everyone made it even better.” Wendy grinned as she grabbed her bag, whining as she slowly started moving towards the door. “You should really stop this thing where you’re taller than I am.”
