déjà vu. that’s the best way to put it. it’s back to black, back to the basics and tiffany think it’s ironic. the timing. the first time had been for dream high and then the gayo performances. now it was for the commercial filming and photoshoot. her saving grace, her true solace in this, is that jihyun is in her team. kibum and junhong too. she’s blessed. her entire group comprised of people she not only likes and works well with but her friends.

but no matter what, it doesn’t save her from having to dye her hair again. even that, tiffany tries to make the best of. jessica and jennie, her beloved cousins, making the process bearable. it was one thing to dye her hair every once in a while but it hadn’t been that long, at least in her standards to preserve her hair, since she last lightened it. the change wasn’t drastic but in the time when tiffany felt like she was beginning to change, when she was too attached— toodramatic, honestly — to the concept of her hair representing that; the equivalent of “new hair, new me.” as if she can’t have that, not in this moment when everything’s chaotic at home, it’s back to the past and she knows that it couldn’t be more true.

the situation with leo brings up everyone’s old scars, cassie’s the most. for her, it’s more about her future and she tries to tell herself it means nothing— that black’s a classic.
