Was that true? I could always tell when she was lying to me, but I couldn't be sure this tihed on ha touchedpersonally met with the Daily Fact reporter to bury the scandal The photo that ht now That troubled ive you so didn't wait for ets ahold of your weakness, it lasts a long ti time”
It felt like various colors of paint was splattered on my vision It was like my current mental state
I entered the base Filwell right now?
”Oppaaa!”
My body lurched forward Someone smacked my back with both hands
When I turned around, Ilanced and calculated the distance between her and the cahtly, she secretly whispered tolike an amateur? Aren't you more nervous than back with us?”
”I a yesterday and today It's like your head's going to fly off if Pretty Girls' song doesn't go to the top of the charts? The girls are acting really cautious right now Yeondu's face is pale fro next to you!”
I look ?
I paid close attention to hts were a mess
I rubbed my face with my hands It did seem a little stiff I pushed the corners ofan interview in front of the full-wall h she prepped for this interview ahead of time, she looked experienced as she faced the cameraman
To the point where it almost felt unfamiliar
damn it No, not her
I turned around In the hts, in the sa, were Pretty Girls They all had smiles on their lips but their eyes shi+fted side to side
They glanced at aze
So there was a problem with me
On a day as ih with all the pressure they are under, I couldn't help them relieve any of that pressure and only added to it I let out a sigh and cleared my complicated mind Then I went over to the Pretty Girls and asked,
”How are you all? Are you nervous?”
”Pardon?”
Oh Yeondu replied in surprise
”I asked if you were nervous”
”Pardon?”
”Nevermind”
”Pardon?”
Her eyes had lost focus It was the same for Yoon Sol and Lee Hwain They were co in and out They acted all brave during the last perfors, yet it looked like they didn't have the co Jae, the eldest She at least looked coh her face was paler than the laptop screen, she was still trying to o?”
”Ah, he went upstairs to look for a phone charger The battery was almost drained”
Co on their phones
What the heck? Were they talishtly?”
”… We're on the phone with our parents”
”Right now? You're on the phone right now?”
Their phone screens definitely indicated they were calling so Jae replied with a nervous look,
”We couldn't calm down by ourselves We felt like ould be less nervous if we did this, so we decided to do this until the album releases If we aren't allowed…”
”It's not like you're not allowed, but are you that nervous?”
As soon as I asked, Yoon Sol, coainst her ear
”Moht? You can't hang up!”
So they are that nervous With Yoon Sol's actions, the other two quickly reacted the same way They held their phones and called out to their parents Jung Jae's hand holding her phone trembled as she looked up atfor ainst her ear,
”Dad, are you still there?”
So plane
I was so duhed When I looked around, Producer Yoo Sooyoung had a motherly smile The ca this way had happy sirls dropped their phones I around thest the Neptune members, but she tried hard to act like a sunbae in front of the goldfish
Should I say she looked like a first-born trying to act like the adult in front of her younger siblings?
”Girls, calm down! You need to be calmer at times like this!”
I could hear LJ snort all the way over here
”The mood was completely celebratory when our double title tracks on our last album hit 11th and 14th place I bet you'll do even better”
”Sunbaenim…!{1} What if it's not there e refresh the chart once it's released?”
”Hey! Did you not see the internet? There are soto drop! You should be worried, instead, you should be excited!”
Ins of cal down
Yoon Sol said in a quiet voice,
”Our luck has been too good for the past few s always happen in the end”
”Driving away bad luck! We should have done that! Someone hit me!”
Oh Yeondu spoke nonsense The others joined in To drive away bad luck before their song releases, they began to pinch and slap each other's ar this time, the minute hand continued to tick
The noisy coathered Pretty Girls held their breaths as they looked at the laptop
I also observed the music charts on the laptop
Just then…
”It's been released!”
{1} Sunbaenim - a more formal version of 'sunbae'
