          ✪ Muffled utterances broke the dead silence that encased Johnny’s dorm room as he answered his phone in what could possibly be the sleepiest tone ever. “Hey,” he answered. Rising from his sleeping spot, he tip-toed around his bandmates and made his way to a nearby corridor; trying to avoid disturbing his members with whatever chatter that was about to unfold.

Judging by the way the moon’s rays hit a window close by, Johnny guessed it had to be about 2am. Leaning his back against a wall, he crossed one leg over the other and sleepily rubbed his eye, phone delicately pressed against his ear all the while. When was the last time he got a call out of the blue like this? He couldn’t remember. Most of the phone calls he receives are either for business or are his close friends; those typically come in like clockwork. With that being said, he was a bit taken aback when his phone buzzed at such a late hour with an incoming call from someone he’s only known for a short time. “How are you?” he inquired.

°✦▸ “Only three?” No matter which way she looked at it the number seemed intimidating. What if she couldn’t think of three things that were considered the biggest moments of the now over year? And on the other hand, what if she did but then couldn’t narrow it down to only three? Questions like this were always the hardest for Kiko, no matter how you looked at it they resulted in pressure. These were the questions she would usually try to avoid during interviews, especially if those questions came in the form of ranking her members or naming her three favorite food dishes. What if she changed her mind the next day? “How about this. I didn’t fall in public recently, so that’s one. I managed to land one big ad campaign, and lastly…. I didn’t burn down the kitchen in my dorm when doing my self-taught cooking lessons.” Laughing she turned to look at the other. “Those might seem like minor accomplishments, but they’re huge for me. But naming only three is hard. What about you? Can you name just three big moments for you from this past year?” 

✧  She laughed with the other, nodding her head at the accomplishments -- especially in regards to not burning down her dorm while cooking. “Ah, I can definitely relate, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve set off my fire alarm trying to make some fancy cuisine I found online. But anyway, those aren’t minor, they’re pretty big! And if they make you proud, then they make you proud.” She grinned at the girl before raising both of her brows at the question, dealing the the same dilemma the other had just moments before. She quickly tried to think of big memories from the past year that weren’t totally depressing. “Hm..” she begun, her voice trailing off as she pondered for a bit more. “Well, I passed one of my harder projects in class, which surprised me. I also learned how to drive and got my license! And third, I made the most delicious birthday cake for myself. I’m even planning on making it again for this year!”

  °✦▸ “What about that is so hard to believe? I’m too busy to date.” She mumbles the last part, not able to speak with a clear voice at the words. It was embarrassing to be her age and to never been on a date. But she had always been too busy focusing on modeling and then on training to be an idol. Dating wasn’t something she had time to think of. Plus she was too young to think about it before, and now she didn’t have time. Offering the other a smile she nodded slowly, “Moving past that. What about you? How many dates have you been on? How do you find the time to date? Who have you found the time to date? What-” stopping she laughs nervously, “Sorry. Too many questions at once. You don’t have to answer anything if it’s too personal.”
