“You? No. You’re the best at it. You’ll be the best at it while being embarrassed.”

 

At Han Da-min’s words, Min Ha-young grabbed her head in agony, then as if making up her mind, she suddenly shouted.

 

“Hwa, woof! I am….”

 

“Ugh….”

 

…Anyway, it was a sight I couldn’t bear to watch with my eyes open.

 

“…Look at that. I told you Ha-young does it best when you make her do it. Ugh, where’s the coffee? It’s so sweet it’s bitter, bitter.”

 

As Han Da-min writhed in agony while speaking, Seo Ra-eun silently nodded and distributed coffee to all the members.

 

“Ahhh! Why are you doing this! You guys told me to do it!”

 

Min Ha-young’s face turned bright red as she body tackled me.

 

“It’s because you started it first! You have to take responsibility and give us a reaction.”

 

“Yeah, I’m the sinner here.”

 

I quickly dodged Min Ha-young and hid behind Seo Ra-eun, making Min Ha-young sniffle and fume.

 

“I’m never doing it again!”

 

“Now! Then shall we have Song-i try it next?”

 

“Wow, even in this situation, you’re still making people do it.”

 

“…I can just do it. I’m not embarrassed. I did it a lot on broadcasts when I was little.”

 

In the end, Han Da-min only moved on from this topic after seeing aegyo from all the members, including Song-i.

 

After that, we really did many things.

 

Following the mini fan meeting, we also had a Q&A session and took many photos in poses the fans wanted.

 

Since we had changed costumes, we also performed 【Blooming】 once in our casual clothes version.

 

Maybe because we had plenty of time, even after finishing the signings, it felt much more relaxed than the mini fan meeting.

 

Time flowed like that, and before we knew it, it was time to end the fan signing event.

 

Han Da-min, who received a signal from Manager Ji-soo below the platform, drew droopy eyebrows and said.

 

“Everyone, they’re saying it’s already time to end.”

 

“Nooo!”

 

Since we had been having such a fun conversation, the disappointed voices sounded even more regretful.

 

However, the disappointment wasn’t just the fans’ alone.

 

“It’s so disappointing. Really….”

 

It’s just the end of the fan signing event, but in the bigger picture, it’s also the end of our debut activities.

 

Once this time ends, for a while there won’t be singing on stage or standing in front of fans laughing, chatting, and having fun like this.

 

The fans also knew this, so they voiced their disappointment, asking us not to go or to stay a little longer.

 

Han Da-min shook her head with a bitter expression.

 

“We’d like to stay longer if we could, but unfortunately we have other things to do after this. It would be nice to hang out more, right.”

 

“Yes….”

 

But even so, we couldn’t extend the time.

 

Setting aside the rental time….

 

“Even though it’s disappointing…. We have to show everyone a cool performance at SPLCON too.”

 

“That’s right. So please wait just a little. We’ll prepare hard and bring you a satisfying stage.”

 

When Da-min and I spoke, Min Ha-young, who had been pouting with her lips stuck out in disappointment, drew droopy eyebrows and nodded.

 

“Today is the last day for 【Blooming】, but we’ll turn on live broadcasts frequently so you won’t feel our absence.”

 

“It’s a promise!”

 

“I’ll go to SPLCON too!”

 

“Really? I memorized your face. Make sure to see me then!”

 

“Haha. Well then.”

 

Han Da-min called the members to gather in the center.

 

“If we say goodbye for too long, it’ll just make us feel more reluctant to leave…”

 

“No!”

 

“It won’t!”

 

“Huh? You won’t feel reluctant?”

 

“…We will!”

 

The voice of a fan hurriedly changing their words filled the audition hall with laughter once again.

 

It was really disappointing, but now it was truly time to part ways.

 

“Everyone, we’ll say our goodbyes now and end the fan signing event.”

 

“You all worked hard today, and since it’s cold, you should hurry home and eat some warm rice.”

 

“Thank you for staying with us all day from the music show until now.”

 

Each member gave their farewell greetings one by one and then looked at me.

 

It meant I should say something too. I briefly pondered what words would be good to end with, then decided to keep it simple.

 

“So you won’t have to wait long, I’ll come often. See you again soon.”

 

***

 

“Good work!”

 

“See you tomorrow! Make sure to do ice treatment!”

 

Today’s entire schedule had ended.

 

The members who returned to the dormitory after finishing practice moved in perfect coordination as always, preparing to wrap up the day.

 

“Ji-soo unnie, is it true that May Rookie is bringing a behind camera tomorrow?”

 

“It’s true. But we’re bringing one too, so tomorrow we need to wake up early and get styling done.”

 

“Even when activities end, they’re not really over. Oh, unnie, let me help make the ice water too.”

 

Min Ha-young rushed over and helped Han Da-min and Seo Ra-eun lift the basin of ice water they were carrying.

 

I also put down the mobile phone I was about to turn on and lent a hand.

 

“If three people lift that, your backs will be completely ruined.”

 

“No matter how you look at it, isn’t this basin incredibly big? Where do you even get something like this?”

 

I wasn’t just saying that – it really was huge.

 

How big? Big enough for all five of us to comfortably space out and soak our feet.

 

Seo Ra-eun said proudly.

 

“My relative had a baby. Originally they bought it to use as a baby bathtub, but when they actually received it, it was so big they were troubled.”

 

“Your relative gave it to you?”

 

“Yeah. They thought we could put it to better use, so I took it.”

 

All the useful and interesting items in our home come from Seo Ra-eun.

 

The basin, which is shallower than a baby bathtub but generously sized, is being put to very good use every night in our dormitory for ice treatment.

 

“Those who’ve washed up, come over here and put your feet in.”

 

“Yesss~”

 

One by one, those who had finished showering began to approach this place.

 

I picked up my mobile phone that I had carelessly thrown on the sofa and dipped my feet into the basin.

 

“Ugh, it’s painful but good.”

 

“Da-min unnie makes weird sounds every time she puts her feet in ice water.”

 

Choi Song-i spoke as if she couldn’t understand, but Han Da-min showed no signs of being affected and instead made even more rough sounds while imitating something incomprehensible.

 

“But don’t those sounds come out naturally? Isn’t it like some kind of ritual to sublimate pain into pleasure? …Ugh. It’s cold.”

 

Min Ha-young said as she dipped her feet into the basin.

 

“At first I wondered why we had to do this painful thing. But once I got used to it, it became more painful not to do it.”

 

I nodded in agreement with her words.

 

“We have to do it even if we don’t want to. Especially when we’re practicing day and night like these days.”

 

Our activities have ended, but we’re still in a situation where we have to be stuck in the practice room all day long.

 

Still, since we can flexibly adjust our practice time, I’m thinking of making time for all the members to visit the hospital together soon.

 

No matter how much Day Entertainment prioritizes our condition, we’ve been running non-stop, so there must be something wrong somewhere.

 

“Does anyone have any pain anywhere?”

 

I asked casually while turning on my mobile phone again.

 

It’s cold right now…

 

Very cold;;;

 

The kids still haven’t come out even though time has passed, so someone asked the fan manager and apparently it’s because it’s their last broadcast so the kids can’t calm down.. ㅠ

 

Take your time coming, girls…

 

I don’t know who heard it, but there’s a rumor that the kids are delayed because they’re crying

 

It seemed like a review post about the mini fan meeting and fan signing event that I was glancing at earlier.

 

No, it seemed like a post written almost in real-time from before the mini fan meeting started, so should I call it a live commentary?

 

The reaction seemed pretty good, so I was looking around a bit.

 

4. Dormitory Stories

 

-When they first entered the dormitory, it was so much wider than expected that it felt burdensome rather than good

 

Why are we going through all this???<<< They were in such a state that they absolutely couldn’t fail, so all the kids practically lived in the practice room ㅠㅠ And ㄷㅁ was basically a ghost haunting the meeting room ㅠ

 

-All the members were assigned their own rooms but they say it’s meaningless lol because Haechan wags his tail and goes into any room he wants and just plops down ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He does it so often that the other members don’t even care about “your room my room” anymore and just go into whatever room is closest when they want to rest and flop down ㅋㅋㅋ

 

⌎ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The main victim is actually the princess who would probably value personal space the most ㄹㅇ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

⌎ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Their personal space isn’t just close, it’s completely gone lol ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

 

We talked about so many things that after it ended, I was worried whether the fans actually enjoyed it, whether we got too excited and talked about unnecessary things, but fortunately everyone seems to have enjoyed it.

 

I was reading the review posts with satisfaction when it happened.

 

“But where did Song-i go? She was the first one to wash up.”

 

“Did she fall asleep?”

 

“Ah, I’ll go look for her.”

 

Min Ha-young splashed as she pulled her feet out of the basin and headed toward Song-i’s room.

 

And a little while later.

 

“Unnies… Ji-ye. I think something big happened?”

 

Min Ha-young returned with a very serious expression.

 

“I didn’t go inside the room to check or anything. But I can hear crying sounds from inside the room?”

 

“…Huh?”

 

Crying sounds? What does that mean?

 

The members began pulling their feet out of the basin with bewildered expressions.

 

Min Ha-young tilted her head as if she wasn’t sure, then spoke once more.

 

“I think Song-i is crying.”
