— {★} —   “And that took us, what? About three hours to perfect? I think we deserve a meal for all the calories we burned off!” There was a big grin on Euijin’s lips and that only meant one thing… “How about it, Junhong-ah? Treat me to a meal!” Of course, she was merely kidding, though the way she was playing around made it seem like she really did want him to buy her some food. Awaiting for his reply, she slumped against the mirrored wall of the training room their two groups often occupied. Despite his busy schedule and her not-so-busy activities, they managed to find time in their day to meet up and do one thing they both loved: dance. They’ve known each other from quite some time now, being in the same company and going to the same high school. Learning new choreography from famous dancers on the Internet was a pastime they’ve come to enjoy over the years. From having to practice dances because their company choreographers forced them to, they’ve learned to do it on their own free will.

Foreign was the right word to describe how many of them felt at that particular time, especially the both of them. Travelling out of their comfort zone to deliver stages for international fans and listeners was something performers like them were used to, and the recurrent opportunities to do so was a thrilling one, yet they ought to feel lost during such occasions— where they were both at the back of the stage which was filled with performers from all around the world. At an instant, the voice of the male who stood at least a foot taller than her shook her off the momentarily daze that she was in, as she felt her facial muscles tensing up slightly at the sudden intrusion, gazing up towards the male in a fathomable manner.  “Neither do I,” She responded briefly, raising her voice slightly as an attempt to overcome the booming music that was played through the speakers behind them. Tugging a small sheepish grin at the side of her lips, she proceeded. “Where are your members, by the way?”

{’ realising that her tone might have been too clipped or harsh, she forces her lips to curve into a small smile, just to show the younger male that she truly is alright, but that he should go on and talk about himself for now } Yeah.. {’ sighs and nods in agreement with his words; her group has been doing the same--all of December have been quite hectic for them, with concerts and rehearsals and individual schedules; not to mention with Christmas happening, it was even more stress } I’ve been busy with the same things! Can you believe--2016 is almost here! {’ she laughs, trying to sound lighter and more cheerful now--and for the most part succeeding, because she’s used to doing this, putting up facades } It’ll be nice, right? Finally attending the year end ceremonies together!

Because… Yongguk and I are men.
