For a while, Day Entertainment was in a festive mood. Thanks to CEO Kim Ja-in and the staff preparing the next album in advance during the 【GISS】 activity period, the comeback was being prepared generously, systematically, and step by step.

Overall, whether it was staff or members, everyone had much more leisure than before, so good news truly sounded like good news.

The collaboration with Cael Arden. To think I would participate as a feature in his title song and even film a music video. Plus, a song that Han Da-min directly composed would be sung together and included in Cael Arden’s album.

This was truly a great opportunity.

Cael Arden was relatively less known as a singer, but in terms of recognition, he was a popular actor that everyone knew.

Moreover, with the success of his recently released movie, he was currently considered one of the actors receiving the most attention in Hollywood.

He was probably using us for publicity too, but we also had considerable merit in collaborating with him.

A truly big event that could introduce our Flora, which had only been well-known to overseas K-pop fans, to people who didn’t listen to K-pop.

Of course, this would make us much busier than now, and honestly, we’re already very busy.

We had to squeeze the collaboration schedule with Cael Arden between the planned comeback preparation schedule.

Plus, rather than collaborating frustratingly through video calls, the majority opinion was to fly to America and work there, so we were honestly frantic trying to finish all the work that absolutely had to be done in Korea before going to America.

But for the first time in a while, the staff didn’t become exhausted despite being busy.

The brief but long rest we had, and the conviction that this opportunity would be an important turning point for Flora that absolutely couldn’t be missed.

If we did well, it would be a huge hit, so it was natural for the Day Entertainment people, who were all workaholics, to pour their souls into it.

Strangely, these people’s eyes lit up more the tighter the schedule became.

After finishing most of the work we could do in Korea, we headed to America.

***

We were very excited when we arrived in America.

We didn’t just come here for nothing – we came here for a collaboration with Cael Arden. The unfamiliar scenery looked so beautiful.

Members and staff alike were looking at the scenery outside the airport with excited, thrilled faces full of anticipation.

Among them, there was someone with a happy face beyond excitement, grinning from ear to ear.

“Unnie, are you that happy?”

“The world is beautiful.”

When Han Da-min said this with a grin, Choi Song-i clicked her tongue softly and shook her head. She had been in that state the entire way here.

She sat next to me and called me a ‘lucky charm’ several times, squeezing my hands while laughing. I guess having her song included in Cael Arden’s album made her that happy.

Well, I could understand that feeling, so I just chuckled and started walking.

The weather in America was clear. I looked around at the completely different scenery from Korea inside the car. Since this wasn’t an official schedule and we only had a simple meeting today, it felt like we had just come to hang out privately together.

While I was thinking about maybe doing some sightseeing with the members after the meeting ended, enjoying the scenery since we had come to America after a long time, we arrived at the hotel where we would be staying for a long time.

“This is crazy….”

At the hotel entrance, Min Ha-young let out an unrestrained exclamation.

A 5-star hotel located in the heart of downtown. Was it because we were in a different country? Even though it was a hotel that existed in Korea too, everything from the interior to the atmosphere felt big and different. A lobby that literally made exclamations pour out.

We were scheduled to spend about 2 weeks in this hotel’s suite room.

Surprisingly, I heard that this hotel suite room was booked by Cael Arden’s side.

After learning that we would be recording our new album here by renting a separate studio, he said he didn’t want to burden us with hotel costs when we were coming to work on his album, so he booked a place close to the studio.

Certainly, after that day’s meeting, it seemed like he was maintaining at least business relationship courtesy.

Therefore, we were able to live luxuriously for 2 weeks and focus solely on work.

“Everyone put your luggage in your rooms and rest for a bit, then meet at the lobby – the second floor lobby at 5 o’clock. Answer your phones right away. If there are any problems, contact us immediately.”

“Yes!”

We received keys from the manager and headed to our respective rooms with guidance from hotel staff. I was sharing a room with Min Ha-young for the first time in a while.

“Are hotels in America this big too? Princess, should we eat first? Room service?”

“If Ha-young orders it herself, sure.”

“Ah, come on.”

Min Ha-young smiled sheepishly and shook her head.

“You do it. Why are you making me speak English?”

“Are you really going to eat room service? Let’s eat something delicious together with the members in a bit.”

“Oh, what are we going to eat? Can we go out to eat?”

Min Ha-young asked, bouncing around. Just walking down the corridor, but she was looking around everywhere as if there was something to see.

She’s acting exactly like what fans think of when they think of Min Ha-young.

I smiled softly and picked up my phone to start recording a video. At the ding! sound of recording starting, Min Ha-young quickly ran over and made a V sign.

“Are you going to post this on SNS?”

“Not now. After we return to Korea. Or after the music release.”

“Okay. Garden everyone, we are currently in America. What did we come here to do? Heart pounding! We came here for recording with Cael Arden.”

“How do you feel?”

“I feel so good. No, this place is huge. There was a really big painting in the lobby and they said it’s a real Picasso painting. Isn’t that totally amazing?”

“Everyone, there’s a baby retriever here running around excitedly, shedding fur.”

She’s really bouncing around like a puppy.

“To think I’m sharing a room with that friend again. I’m already feeling tired.”

“Huh? Hey! What do you mean by that? It’s good to share a room with me! Aren’t we soulmates?”

“Yeah yeah, that’s right.”

“Put some soul into it.”

“I’m sharing a room with this friend again after a long time, but actually I wanted to room with Ra-eun unnie.”

I dragged Min Ha-young, who was hugging and shaking me asking where such a thing existed, toward the room.

I’m feeling it again – our Ha-young is really full of energy. This time she started doing a satisfaction dance in front of the camera because the room was nice.

I filmed all of this and encouraged the excitement until I got tired and collapsed.

“Let’s rest a bit now…. Ha-young, aren’t you tired? I feel like I’m really going to faint.”

Jet lag is also a problem, but I couldn’t sleep comfortably on the plane, so I want to rest a bit before eating or having meetings. At my words, Min Ha-young quickly calmed down and started organizing her luggage.

“Ji-ye, aren’t you going to unpack?”

“Later. I’m too sleepy.”

Saying that, I went under the covers and properly buried my face in the pillow. Just as I was starting to fall asleep, I opened my eyes wide at the sound of a phone ringing in the room.

“Ji-ye, you have a call.”

At Min Ha-young’s words, I checked my phone and it was Seong Ji-soo.

“But she said to rest and then meet later….”

Why is she calling before I even finished unpacking?

I sighed deeply and answered the phone.

“Yes, Manager.”

-…Were you sleeping?

“No, I was about to fall asleep. Should we meet now?”

-No no, it’s not everyone meeting. Can just you come down for a moment, Ji-ye?

“Just me?”

-Yeah.

Manager Seong Ji-soo hesitated a bit then sighed and said.

-Just come say hello and go. Cael Arden is here.

“…What?”

All sleepiness disappeared. As I sat up abruptly in bed and asked back, I could hear Seong Ji-soo chuckling in disbelief.

-He was apparently waiting knowing we’d arrive today. He must have time to spare, really. Anyway, it would be awkward to just send him away, and since he’s here, he suggested having a recording meeting too, so I called you and Da-min. Can you come down right now?
