Everyone's gazes turned towards the screen

A faory of the music site When we clicked it, the five tracks we had listened to again and again while preparing for the album appeared The two title tracks were marked with a 'title' indicator

In the review coluest share in the nationalfor the album to release were uploaded in real-time

Looking at reviews, such as 'I can tell it is high quality just by listening to the intro' and 'Go Neptune!', my heartbeat quickened a little as well Maybe it was because we could see the real-tis, but it was a completely different sensation compared to entertainment shows or dramas

How high would they go?

”Chief, ill the 5-o up?”

At my question, Kim Hyunjo smirked

”Hey, you The 5-minute prediction chart is only for the first, second, and third places”

”It ht be one of them”

”Hey, hey It seems your standards have reached the top of your head because Cat Guardian Ghost beca the top of music charts, that's not as easy as it sounds”

Ki, but I was serious The 'shooting through the graph' talk from before wasn't a joke either

Of course, I kneouldn't be easy since the nuraph If this was so easy, there was no reason for singers to be so anxious when releasing their songs

Still, my expectations of 'just maybe' had already crawled up to my throat

This album was expected to succeed Their popularity had already increased enough to shed their 'rookie' label They were proh to aim for a brilliant rank with this?

However, these were only hts, the reactions were lukewarm

”Maybe it's because oppa took seven bowlfuls of kimchi soup{1}, I feel relaxed instead”

Iirls were the sa for their albue

The only person who held such high expectations in this room was me No, the traitor and me

Soon, Kim Hyunjo said,

”Here you go, the 5-raph”

I hurriedly looked at the screen

Then I unconsciously frowned It wasn't there Neptune's naraph for the first, second, and third places Even though others told ht there was a chance

Then what rank was it?

Just as I was divining the next number, the real-time chart updated

”Believing we're within the top 50, I'o up from the 50th rank”

”Oppa, quickly, quickly! I feel like I'et a heart attack!”

”If it's not in the top 50?”

”Hey! Are you going to say such unlucky words even at a ti to do if your words come true? Quickly touch Sunwoo oppa and nullify your words!”

Facing such a fiery tehtly touched my arm in the end

Kim Hyunjo suddenly said,

”It's here 42nd”

What?

While the girls were shouting, I ale sound If Kiht have called the music site to ask if there was a problem with the count

”What in the world? It's not one of the title tracks”

”… It's not one of our title tracks? And it reached 42nd? May-?”

Surprised by her oords, Irabbed my arm

The paused screen began to scroll up again Kim Hyunjo seemed nervous as I heard the mouse wheel click a few times Soon, the mouse stopped twice

35th and 33rd The places of two other non-title tracks

At this point, the mood in the practice roo If sohter, it would cause a chain explosion No one could utter a word as they stared at the screen idened eyes

We kept scrolling up Neptune's album cover didn't appear in the twenties As soon as the first digit changed to a one, I heard people gulping around me

Just then, we stopped scrolling completely

”… Here it is A?”

”It-it's probably a dreaht, unni?”

”I think so Oppa, check another site”

”Euah, Sunwoo oppa must truly be the symbol of happiness! His hair must really be effective If not, there is no way this could happen!”

”The co up the album, is it? I heard a lot about that these days”

The ed Everyone's cheeks were dyed red with excitehout the practice room

It see was overwhelmed with fifty thousand emotions as she stomped her feet with tears in her eyes LJ was persistently asking Ki up their albuha held glasses and food in her hands

Although the traitor see this festive mood The only one who couldn't join in was me

I checked the screen once e

Lee Taehee's song 'Satellite' was 14th

Sio' was 11th

These were the ranks of our title tracks

I greeted the di with open eyes

My head was so coht Opening the ed every hour
