evening came by and the girls were patiently waiting for wonyoung and yujin to go downstairs and eat with them. "should we call them? i mean... it's been thirty minutes, im hungry." hyewon complains, staring at the bucket full of kfc chicken right in the middle of the table.

"you're always hungry" yuri mocked, only to recieve a glare from hyewon, who sighed right after. "you're lucky, you're jo yuri."

 


just as then, they heard heavy footsteps from the stairs. and as they have guessed, it were yujin and wonyoung.

to begin with, they were happy that wonyoung agreed to go outside. heck, they had a hard time doing so, the maknae wanted to be isolated on her room. yujin was a life saver though, she made wonyoung agree.

but at the same time, seeing the maknae's puffy eyes, messy hair, and two bruises on both of her arms made them sad.

"hi." wonyoung softly mumbled, but her eyes widened a little when she saw some of the members tear up. "im okay now, unnies—"
 


 



"now!" eunbi shouts. the clueless wonyoung watched as eunbi, to be followed by the rest, dashed from the dining room, to her real quick.

she was basically attacked with a group hug. wonyoung couldnt help but to breakdown in tears again, maybe this time, not because of sadness. "i-im still not okay"

"baby, we're gonna protect you, okay?" chaeyeon mumbled, hugging wonyoung tight from behind.

"we're gonna beat those stupid bullies up!" yena chirped, breaking from the hug. the rest did the same but chaeyeon was still hugging wonyoung from behind. "yes, we will!"

"im so gonna grab those bullies' hairs and remove them." nako jokes, forming a fist.

"but how will you reach them?" the girls immediately cracked up on yujin's retort, who recieved a smack from nako right after.

wonyoung smiled though, and after the members saw it, they cheered and cooed. "the baby's smiling again!" chaewon loudly says, patting wonyoung's head, who was still smiling. her smile wasnt that wide, nor did it look the happiest.

but as long as they made wonyoung smile, then it makes them happy too.

"alright!" hyewon groaned. "wonyoung, ily, i really do. but my tummy's grumbling!"

wonyoung raised her eyebrows. "you guys didnt eat yet?" her jaw dropped when everyone shookt their heads. "why?"

"we were waiting for you" minju laughs. "we had multiple plans on trying to make you smile, like buying rattles and cribs. but yeah, in the end we just gave you a sweet comfort hug."

wonyoung smiles again, her tears were falling. "and you didnt fail, thank you for the hug, unnies."

"awww, i love you too." hyewon sweetly mutters. "now can we eat?"

_____________

the members started digging up their food, with hyewon eating the most, of course.

in the middle of their chatter, eunbi suddenly talks. "i almost forgot. tomorrow's a holiday and instead of practicing, why dont we go somewhere fun?"

"yay, fun!" yena cheers. "i love fun!"

"so, any suggestions?"

"theme park." sakura suggests

"ew, that's kinda boring." yena retorts

"mcdonalds!" minju chirped

"and what? buy a happy meal for wonyo?" hitomi sarcastically utters

"playground!" nako cutely puffs her cheeks. the rest went uwu but they didnt like the idea

"eunbi's too old for the playground." yena jokes. well, bad move because eunbi aimed her fork infront of yena. "i was kidding please spare me."

"im just two years older than you, duck." eunbi glares. "anyways, i think we should ask wonyoung."

they all glanced at wonyoung, who was peacefully eating. the maknae raised her head, which made the members, the while world, and the whole universe go 'AWWW' after seeing her mouth puffed full of rice.

"ohmygodithinkimburstingallmyuwu" hitomi whispers, closing her eyes shut.

after munching everything in, she shrugged. "i dont have anything in mind."

"you? and having nothing in mind?" yena dramatically gasped. "that is impossible!"

wonyoung blinks. but then sighed later on because the members were still staring at her and waiting for a suggestion. "carnival—"

"BRILLIANT"

"AMAZING"

"IVE NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT OMG"

"BABY YOU'RE SO SMART"

"i dont get it–"

"it's part of the plan fucktard"

"oh yeah— AS EXPECTED FROM OUR PRECIOUS WONYOUNG"

wonyoung looked quite weirded out by the sudden compliments she recieved, but as soon as she realized it, she sighed. "is complimenting me all day part of your plan to make me smile?"

"yeah, is it working?"

"yeah... i guess?" wonyoung chuckles.

"well then, carnival it is!"

___________

"gays, we're here." the members cheered upon chaeyeon's sentence as the van stopped.

yena, being the fake maknae she is, dragged yuri with her before dashing to the van door, opening it. "yena, you child!" eunbi scolds, but nonetheless just sighed after chaewon and minju followed yulyen.

"yay, carnival!" nako chirps, following hitomi as they both went down the van.

"wonyo, yujin? you go down first." eunbi tells them, smiling as yujin stood up and offered her hand, only to be accepted by wonyoung. "let's go, tonight's going to be fun!" it only took a sentence from yujin to make wonyoung smile.

chaeyeon looks at the passenger seats, seeing eunbi waiting for hyewon to tie her shoelaces. "unnie, we're gonna head there. can you lock the doors for us?" chaeyeon thanked eunbi after recieving a nod, locking the drivers seat as she went down with sakura, who was taken a back when chaeyeon opened the door for her.

"thanks, chae." sakura blushed at the minimal act that the latter had done. chaeyeon just chuckled before offering a hand. "come on, just like the old times." sakura nods before they walked to the carnival's entrance where the rest were waiting.
 


 
 
"do you even know how to tie your shoelaces?" eunbi questions, watching as hyewon stuggled to tie her shoelace in a ribbon. hyewon looks above her and shrugged. "i know!"

but as she said that, the shoelace went loose. "yeah, sure." eunbi laughs at her.

after just a minute, hyewon stomps her feet and groaned. "ah, fuck. i give up."

eunbi chuckles at her, "so you're just going to go to the carnival without tying your shoelaces?"

"yeah, i guess." hyewon sarcastically uttered, rolling her eyes. eunbi kneels down, much to hyewon's surprise.
  
  
  

"e-eunbi, i should be the one proposing, and we're too young—" hyewon gets cut of  by eunbi.

"im gonna tie your shoelaces, dumbo." eunbi says, although her cheeks were tinted red, she was blushing, mainly because of what hyewon said.

meanwhile hyewon was flustered. "o-oh, why?"

eunbi stops in the middle of tying the latter's shoelaces. "i dont want you to fall for someone else"
  
  
   
"hey—that's not fair!" hyewon blushes. "i should be the one making you blush!"

eunbi stands up before snickering. "just because i bottom doesnt mean im submissive, let's go!"

___________

"where are those two?" yena groans in annoyance. "i wanna go inside already!"

"wow, you're more excited than the maknaes." sakura mumbled, rolling her eyes.

"hey i—"
 
  

   
"we're here! sorry, hyewon needed help." everyone sighed in relief after seeing eunbi dragging hyewon.

of course, yujin and yena did a lenny face. "what kind of help is that?" yujin jokes, earning either laughes or disgusting remarks, there's no in between.

"shut up yujin you nasty child." eunbi scolds. yujin just laughed.

they patiently waited for eunbi to buy tickets, and after a tough two munutes, she came back from the ticket booth with exactly 12 tickets on her hand.

"alright, we're here to have fun." eunbi spoke. "but that doesnt mean we shouldnt be careful. we have stalkers and bullies on loose, so we're gonna go in groups."

half of the members nodded in understanding, while half of the them protested.

"understandable"

"i can go with that as long as im with joyul!"

"alright, safety first"

"hell no!"

"i wanna go alone"

"no, wonyoung!"

"guys, guys!" eunbi silenced the members before sighing. "we're going on 4 pairs in 3 groups. we have no choice but to do this so that nothing bad happens to any of us."

"we're going with the japanese cuties!" chaeyeon chirped. nako and hitomi nodded as they walked beside sakura.

"alright, we're gonna bring yuri and yena with us." eunbi mumbled. "please pray for us."
 
  
  
the last four members looked at each other. chaewon gulped inwardly. being in a group with yujin means she's not gonna have some quality time with minju, she had to make a move. "uh, can we go with yuri and yena instead?"

"no, sorry."
 
  
"fuck" chaewon whispered. yujin raised an eyebrow. "why? dont you wanna be in a group with us?" yujin smirked.
 
  

"okay, let's go now." eunbi cuts them off. the other members sighed in relief, they knew there was an unknown tension between yujin and chaewon. sometimes they're friends, sometime they're the opposite.

"remember, we're gonna meet at the ice cream bound at 11." eunbi reminds them. the rest nodded as they excitedly followed the leader, who entered the gate.

but they were forced to stop in the middle of giving their tickets. "sorry, minors arent allowed since it's already 8 pm." the guard strictly authorized, in which the other members stuck on the entrance groaned.
  

  
"sorry, our friend here, wonyoung, is already 17—" sakura points at wonyoung, but gets cut off by the guard.
 
  

  
"im not referring to that tall girl." the girls cluelessly looked at the guard. "im referring to that small kid behind her."

 

 


"im sorry, what the fuck?" they all tried so hard to not let out a single laugh at nako, who looked offended, betrayed, disgruntled, and dismayed. "im fucking 18."

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA" chaeyeon cant help but to laugh so hard, to the point where the others laughed hard at the same time.

"oh? im sorry, miss." the guard pursed his lips. "you can enter now"

as soon as everyone were able to enter, their laughs were never-ending. they were still laughing at the poor nako who looked pissed. "i hate that guard."

"now, now." hitomi swings her arm around nako's shoulders. "its alright, your height is cute."
