"again, 1. 2. 3!" the girls repeated dancing the chorus as the trainer said so.

after the sudden sleep over in the middle of 3 am, the girls were too tired practicing without even resting, hence, they kept getting mistakesz especially wonyoung, who was still paranoid because of her nightmare.

"stop!" bae yoon jung spoke in anger, making everyone stand in one row. "you're all messing up! i get that youre tired but bear with it. especially you, jang wonyoung, why did you even get the first rank, you dont have a special skill."

now that hurt wonyoung's pride.

the girls couldnt believe what theyve heard, it was too rude and they knew that wonyoung gets hurt easily.

you dont have a special skill. wonyoung's tears fell, which made the members alarmed, even sakura.

"and now you're crying? pathetic. just go be an actress or something."

unbelievable. chaeyeon thought, she was too judgmental and rude.

yujin tries comforting the younger, giving her a hug.

as the leader, eunbi stepped up. "im sorry but what you said isnt true. wonyoung deserves the rank and she's more talented than you."

bae yoon jung glares at her. "say, kwon. you've been really disrespectful to me right from the start. how can you all choose a leader like this disrespectful?"

"eunbi eonnie is just defending our wonyoungie, what's wrong with that?" yena spat, heck, they dont care if they're being disrespectful.

bae yoon jung looks at them unbelievably. "why are you students so disrespectful?! you have no right to disrespect a trainer!"

"well you also have no right to downgrade a student!" chaewon angrily spat, which made bae yoon jung look at her with flares on her eyes.

"why? am i not saying the truth? that kid doesnt have any talent!"

"shut the fuck up!" yujin suddenly shouts.

"shit, yujin no. this is getting out of hand." minju says, widening her eyes.

bae yoon jung carefully claps her hands. "wow, is this the 1st to 12th ranked students? disrespectful and rude? irrelevant."

"we're not disrespectful and rude, we're just defending our member." nako mutters, which was still heard by the trainer.

"and who are you to say that, you small talentless kid?"

they've had enough.

"im sorry, trainer bae yoon jung. but it's time to shut the fuck up and open your eyes, that way you'll see our talents." yuri spoke, which made yena laugh. "way to go, joyul."

eunbi sighed, she doesnt know what to do anymore. they were being too disrespectful and it wasnt right.

"guys, we're being too disrespectful, let's stop." hitomi concernedly mumbles.

"oh, honda hitomi? you finally spoke! i couldnt even notice your presence everyday."

hitomi's expressions changed. "on second thoughts, let's keep disrespecting her."

"such talentless and stupid students, goodluck on the competition." before the girls could say anything, bae yoon jung left, shutting the door shut.

everyone collapses, tiredly laying down.

"did we just disrespect our trainer?" chaeyeon unbelievably asks.

"she deserved it though, she called some of our members talentless." hyewon mutters, sitting down.

wonyoung's tears soon dissapears. "this is all my fault, if i didnt cry then this shouldnt have happened."

"no, this is not your fault, wonyoung. this is nobody but mine. as the leader, i wasnt able to stop you from answering back to her, instead, i started disrespecting her." eunbi stands up, about to leave when hyewon grabbed her hand.

"stay here, we're a group." eunbi gulps at the sudden contact. eunbi sighs as she sat back down.

"this isnt your fault, eonnie. you defended wonyoung and that's a leader's job." minju spoke as a matter of fact.

"this is so absurd. this is the first time i disrespected a trainer." yuri says, nervously laughing at yena held her shoulder. "dont worry, we all have our first times."

eunbi then stands up this time. "we're going home, now. i'll call the service, we all need to rest. bitch made us tired as fuck."

they cracked up, "i cant believe you're calling our trainer a bitch." chaewon spoke, laughing.

"gay culture, chaewon." yena spoke from afar.

"i said im straight, ugh."

following eunbi, they all tiredly stood up, grabbing their bags as they waited for their van to fetch them.

"we slept at 4am, woke up at 6 and didnt even eat lunch. i hate that trainer so much." yujin spoke, laying down on wonyoung's bed as the younger fixed her eyes on her phone.

"im hungry. but i dont deserve to it because it's all my fault." wonyoung says, pouting.

yujin sat down, facing wonyoung. "no, it's no one's fault, never yours, never ours." yujin says.

for some reasons, wonyoung was like a magnet for yujin to make her face near the younger.

yujin stares into the younger's eyes, her faces getting nearer every second and she doesnt even know why she's doing that.

"w-what are you gonna do?" wonyoung mumbles, her heart beating fast as yujin suddenly cupped wonyoung's face.

their hearts beated fast, for some reason, yujin didnt want to go further from the younger.

but that wasnt until someone knocked on their door, making yujin and wonyoung go back to their senses and move far away from each other.

bummer. wonyoung thought.

"hey, it's yena. i hope youre not fucking because youre too young for that." yena spoke behind the door in between knocks.

yena's statement made both yujin and wonyoung's cheeks heat up. well yena was wrong but they were about to kiss so that's besides the point.

"shut up, we're not!" yujin shouts, they then heard a loud laugh also from behind the door, it was from chaeyeon's.

"that's good, well you both need to go down, eunbi and i prepared food, it's already 5pm and we didnt eat lunch." chaeyeon says.

the door opens, revealing yujin and wonyoung.

yuri was there too, and she noticed something off. "did you guys put on some blush or something? both of your cheeks are red."

wonyoung cups her own face, and yujin panicks.

"i knew it-!"

"YES WE TRIED SOME BLUSH IT'S SO PRETTY RIGHT YEP NOW LET'S GO DOWN IM REALLY HUNGRY AND TIRED." yujin spoke fastly, grabbing wonyoung as they walked ahead the three.

yena stared at chaeyeon with a lenny face, and chaeyeon stared at yuri with a lenny face, yuri did the same to yena.

"i knew they did something."

_____________

"before we eat, we need to atleast offer a prayer or something." eunbi says, like a mom.

"but i thought god doesnt support gays." sakura replies, which made everyone crack up.

eunbi facepalmed. "let's recite that one cartoon prayer."

"oh you mean, we love our bread, we love our butter, but most of all, we love each other." nako says, making everyone agree.

"we love our bread, we love our butter, but most of all, we love each other." they spoke in chorus, looking like twelve children as they started eating eunbi and chaeyeon's dish.

"hyewon chill out this aint an eating competition!" minju spoke, trying to stop hyewon from eating too much.

"im fucking hungry, shut up or i'll eat you."

chaewon and yujin glares at hyewon. hyewon noticed that and stared at them both. "chaewon chill, dont be jealous- hey yujin why are you glaring, do you like minju too?!"

yujin was taken aback, yes. she wanted to say that but not now. "wh- of course not!"

wonyoung jealously stared at yujin, who kept on stealing glances to minju from time to time.

even if yujin denies, wonyoung knows she likes minju.

but she likes yujin- she always liked yujin. ever since they were kids, children.

"you seem silent, wonyoung? you're not even eating, are you still affected with what bae yoon jung said a while ago?" eunbi asks concernedly, making wonyoung's thoughts vanish.

"yeah..." wonyoung repLIED. she was silent because of her jealousy. but a part of her is silent because of what bae yoon jung told her.

talentless.

"dont be affected, what she said are lies. i can see that youre really talented even if we havent really been close for a long period of time." chaeyeon spoke, cheering the baby up, which made wonyoung smile a bit.

"by the way, how long has it been since we arrived here in japan?" minju asks.

"it's been three weeks now, minju."

"three weeks? why do i feel like we're already so close lmao." chaewon mutters, and everyone seemed to agree.

"yeah, we look like a family full of chaotic gays and a leader who claims she's straight." yena spoke, which made eunbi glare at her.

"it's almost been a month yet i dont feel like we're in japan. everyday, our destinations are either in the practice room or in the korean restaurant, we never went to the mall or to the amusement parks." wonyoung says, pouting as everyone agreed to what she said.

"dont worry, after we finish recording la vie en rose, we'll go shopping, how does that sound?" eunbi suggests, which made everyone cheer and chirp in agreement. since they already memorized the choreography and they're practicing a new one, la vie en rose was now finished and all they need was to record their voices and distribute their parts, which will be the job of the producers.

"hell yeah!"

in the middle of eating, debating, swearing, laughing, they all went silent as soon as eunbi's phone rang.

eunbi checked the caller id and gulped. "principal kim is calling..."

"the bald man?" yena askes, earning a small smack from yuri.

eunbi left, answering the call outside.

the girls felt uneasy. they all stayed silent as they continued eating while waiting for eunbi to come back

after a few minutes, an uneasy eunbi walked up to them, seriously sitting down. "bad news, gays."

"spill it kwon celeb."

"our trainers quitted on training us because of our poor behavior control."

everyone's widened.

"WAIT WHAT"

"SO WHO WILL TEACH US THE CHOREO"

"WE NEED THREE PRESENTATIONS HOW THE HELL DO WE MAKE UP OUR OWN CHOREOGRAPHY."

"which means from now on, we'll make our own choreographies and songs, we cant use what they made except for la vie en rose."

"we're so fucking dead."
