The Garden Suite Hotel
Room 605

With a big grin, Katryn rolled around on the bed, covering her face with a pillow, trying to contain her giddiness. Eventually, she sat up, still beaming, and settled into an Indian seat.

"Did we actually meet Westlife earlier?" Her eyes darted around the room, catching her friends in various states of excitement.

Jem stood by the window, clutching a photo of herself with Mark from the meet and greet, humming their favorite song. Mae had a dreamy smile on her face, fixated on a picture of herself with Shane. Meanwhile, Analisa carefully wrapped her clothes from the event in plastic cover.

"It's true! It's not some figment of our imagination!" Jem exclaimed.

They all exchanged knowing glances and erupted into laughter, hugging each other tightly and playfully tapping each other's arms, a gesture they reserved for moments of uncontainable joy.

Gathering in a circle on the floor, they continued their animated chatter.

"Guess what? Shane asked if I was the one who submitted the 'Written in the Stars in the contest. How random is that?" Jem shared, her eyes wide with disbelief.

"That's incredible! I am pretty sure you are one of the winners!" Kathryn exclaimed, playfully placing an invisible crown on Jem's head.

As the conversation continued, Jem's eyes sparkled mischievously as she playfully nudged Kathryn's side once again. "Oh, come on, Kathryn. Spill the beans! You were practically a celebrity when you met Kian," Jem teased.

Kathryn's cheeks flushed with a mix of excitement and embarrassment as she relived the encounter in her mind. "I can't help it, guys. Meeting Kian was a dream come true, and I couldn't contain my joy," she confessed, her voice filled with genuine emotion.

Analisa joined the banter, leaning against Mae with a knowing grin.  "You can't blame the people especially the fans. Our friend is well-known as a huge fan of Kian. She's the one who knows every detail about Kian like the back of her hand."

"That's true, but you're no different, Analisa," Kathryn retorted with a grin. "Remember when you bought a Nicky Byrne standee and displayed it outside the grocery store? You even got featured on GMA 7!"

The room erupted in laughter once again, teasing each other in a loving and genuine way.

Jem spoke up, her eyes filled with understanding and affection. "You know what, we're all alike, girls. We may have our own favorite Westlife members, but deep down, our hearts beat in unison for the same love and admiration we hold for Westlife and the entire group."

She leaned in closer, creating an atmosphere of intimacy that made their bond even stronger. "And you know what's beautiful? We each have our unique ways of expressing that support and love. It's like a symphony of fandom, with each of us playing a different instrument, but together, we create a harmonious melody that resonates with our fellow fans."

Kathryn nodded, touched by Jem's words. "You're right. It's incredible how our shared passion for Westlife brought us together and shaped this deep friendship. Whether it's through attending concerts, collecting memorabilia, or sharing updates on social media, we're all part of this beautiful tapestry of fandom."

Mae chimed in, her eyes gleaming with affection for her friends. "Absolutely! And it's not just about being fans. It's about being there for each other through thick and thin, celebrating the highs, and supporting one another during the lows. Our friendship extends beyond the music; it's a bond built on genuine love and camaraderie."

Analisa nodded, her heart swelling with pride for her friends and their shared journey. "We've created unforgettable memories together, from queuing up for concert tickets to singing our hearts out at karaoke nights. And you know what? No matter where life takes us, this friendship will always be a constant source of joy and strength."

Jem smiled warmly, feeling the connection that only true friends could share. "That's the magic of our friendship, girls. We're a family of Westlife enthusiasts, supporting and uplifting one another every step of the way. And just like the boys' music, our bond knows no boundaries."

As they sat there, surrounded by laughter and fond memories, their hearts were full of gratitude for the remarkable journey they had embarked on together. The love for Westlife had not only brought them closer to the music they adored but had also gifted them with lifelong friends who understood and cherished their fandom journey.

In that moment, the room was filled with an overwhelming sense of belonging and love, as each of them knew they had found their tribe - a group of kindred spirits, united by their passion for Westlife, and bound together by an unbreakable friendship that would stand the test of time.
