TUGGING HER HOODIE over her head, Hyeri exhaled rather loudly– due to being bored from waiting for the other to get here. Maybe she should’ve texted the girl earlier, that way, instead of just waiting, she could’ve been on her way here as well. But oh well, sucks to be Hyeri! Thank the Lord that she was under a shade, or else, she would’ve burned underneath the sun’s rays.

As sweat travelled down her forehead, the girl wiped at it gently. It was way too hot to her liking. Plus, she was wearing a black hoodie. Who would even? When her phone vibrated on her lap, Hyeri checked her phone, later unlocking it to reply to her younger friend.

✉ //// * makeup? ah– no. i don’t like wearing makeup when i go outside
          * esp since i’m meeting up with a friend
          * too much work! i’m wearing light foundation as well, and sunscreen 

There were numerous times where she had showed her bare face already, thus the idol didn’t bother wearing makeup when she was out for casual talks or meet ups.

☂ — Relief came in too soon, with the buzz of her
handphone, Sujin blankly stared at the passing 
views and scenery that ran too quickly on the
bus’ window. Coming to a gradual halt, a familiar
building stood tall, its stature turned against the
sun. Arms reaching out for the ‘stop’ button, deft
fingers pulled against the dark-washed mask,
settling it once again around her nose bridge. 
Skipping down to the sidewalk’s platform, the
sun-soaked city contrasted itself to where a
familiar stature sat, occupied by her own
thoughts. Without fail, an idol really does
stand out in public.

It would be inappropriate to greet her from here, as
it would give out their so-called secrecy. Peering
with a knowing grin obstructed by her mask, 
she sauntered to where the older one is.

“Excuse me, you look lonely,”

UPON SEEING THE multimedia text message, a smile dawned on her visage. The lead dancer didn’t really expect the other to actually get her an iced macchiato because people tend to just say things. With a small, genuine smile, she grabbed her phone and sent back a text to the younger female.

✉ //// * ohohoho, kim soohyun-ssi! so handsome.  ㅋㅋ
          * and i’ll see you soon then! take care!
          * i’m right in front of the building, so you’ll see me right away!

☂ — She tugged against the hem of her face mask,
pulling its entirety down underneath her chin. It was
hard to breathe in it, especially at such a humid and
heated day. A balmy weather was all she could ask
for, and it sure was never going to be granted. Sujin
boarded the next bus, as she has missed the one 
that transports her closer to the network’s building,
but this will do. Grabbing herself a window seat, the
iced beverage stood upright on top of her lap, and all
of a sudden– she felt so conscious, just like as if she
had a myriad of insufficiencies.

“Ah.. I hope I look fine.. Probably look like a troll.”
the self-effacing humour hitched underneath her
breath, a deep sigh drawn from her hollowed chest.

(sms — devil unnie  😈) i feel so ugly, unnie!!! i’m only wearing some light foundation, ah!!!  ㅜ ㅜ are you wearing makeup?

HYERI PULLED HER hoodie over her head as she repositioned her sunglasses on the bridge of her nose. Disguises… They were always essential for an idol, no matter where you go. Though, this wasn’t much of a disguise, it was more of her normal wear. Her eyes narrowed into slits as she looked up at the sun, heaving a quiet sigh.

✉ //// * eyyy~ i always compliment you! pft.
          * got it! i’ll expect you to be here in less than 20 minutes then.
          * i’m not… i’m just wearing sunglasses along with a hoodie!
          * but thank you for bringing one for me!

She had always found the younger extremely polite and caring, even when she didn’t need to be. Maybe it was just part of her personality, or it was how she treated those who were older than her. Pocketing her phone, Hyeri glanced over at her sneakers before looking up. In front of her were several trees along with a statue. Honestly, the network’s headquarters was a nice, modern place. And the sun’s rays only made the view more enjoyable.

☂ — Sujin held the iced drinks closer, its brown
papery sleeve starching against her palm, dark
hazel-coloured orbs flicked up, narrowed into
a squint as her irises once again met the Seoul’s
sunny rays.

(mms — devil unnie  😈) [photo attached] got the iced macchiatos! look, they even have kim soohyun-sunbaenim’s face on them, ㅋㅋㅋ 우와 ~~ just have to go take the bus now, see you!!

A GIANT GRIN played on her lips as the younger female replied back to her, almost at lightspeed. Clicking on the notification bubble, she read Sujin’s texts before replying right back to her a minute or less later.

( DEVIL CHILD ) + 82-2-XXX-XXXX
✉ //// * you are truly the best!
          * i’ll pay you back when  you get here, okay?
          * i also have some chips with me!!!!

After Hyeri finished replying to the other’s text messages, she held the bag of chips (which were newly bought from the convenience store for the sole reason of Sujin) on her lap, smiling to herself.

☂ — After given a few strings of replies back,
Sujin excused herself from the practice room’s
confinement. Seoul was finally cooling down from
the thirties down to a high of twenty-five, so today’s
weather should at least be slightly forgiving.
Donning a light cardigan on, Sujin tied her ebony
tresses up, its weight donning against the thin
hairpiece.

(sms — devil unnie  😈) have to take the transit, i’ll be here around :35? is that alright, unnie?
(sms — devil unnie  😈) also, unnie! are you wearing a mask? because i am.. but it’s kinda hot for one.. 
(sms — devil unnie  😈) i’ll bring one just incase! and an extra one for you.

Greeted by the sun that sat proudly in the sky, Sujin’s
eyes narrowed down into thin slits, her irises adjusting
from the sudden change in lighting. The vocalist tucked
her purse just in between her arm, pressing it against 
the rib cage, and with that, she headed towards the
network’s headquarters.

WITH HER HANDS on her phone, she sent a quick text to a young friend of hers, hoping that the younger would spare some time and hang out with her. Hyeri was sitting on a bench outside of the SNN building, basking the sunlight’s ray whilst being bored out of her mind.

✉ //// * sujin-ah~~ heheheh.
          * are you free? let’s go hang out at the network!
          * i’m there already! 

☂ — Though slightly hesitant to answer back,
there wasn’t any reason to turn the offer down;
and given the fact that the message has already
been marked as ‘read’, Sujin peered her neck
out the window, “Hmm..”
