Being back home in Jeju made Eunwoo so excited. It had been such a long time since she had been back to her hometown. The smell of the sea and the familiar scenery made her realize how much she actually missed being home. A favorite pastime of her popped into her head and gave her an idea. Texting her father as a question, her grin broadened as she bounced up and down at his reply.
“Hey, is anyone interested in fishing on the sea? I’m surprising my mom and dad, they don’t know I’m here and they’re about to go onto their boat. Oh, you can finally meet my parents!” Her pitch became higher and her breath seemed to be out of place from speaking so quickly as Eunwoo clapped her hands together. If anything, she adored her parents and how they often came to her in Seoul. Now it was time to surprise them with some of her members.
[ MESSAGE SENT TO → MY PRETTIEST STAR 💕 ] : ( video attachment. )
[ MESSAGE SENT TO → MY PRETTIEST STAR 💕 ] : i miss you a lot :(
[ MESSAGE SENT TO → MY PRETTIEST STAR 💕 ] : the apartment is too quiet without you coming and going sometimes.
[ MESSAGE SENT TO → MY PRETTIEST STAR 💕 ] : i also know you’re very busy!! you’re taking care of yourself, right? eating and drinking lots of water??
He came to Duri’s apartment with a Gucci backpack stuffed with old dvds, low-calorie snacks, and a large, plush alpaca under his arm. Earlier, Seungmin made a decision to mimic his younger self for the sake of preserving his sanity for Decipher’s upcoming promotions and maybe, just maybe, he wanted to go back for a few hours and pretend to be like the old him.
Duri gave him the pass-code to his apartment, so getting in wasn’t difficult. Seungmin waltzed into his home like he belonged there, although inside his nerves were bubbling with anxiety. Just because Duri still gave him the benefit of the doubt didn’t mean that he’d be thrilled to see him.
He pulled his hat off and called into the apartment, “Duri? You here?” he asked, hearing nothing in response. The lights were on, but it seemed no one was home. “You taking a shit?” Seungmin called again, and frowning, set his bag and coat down at the table. He figured that in any case he could wait a bit and began shifting through the movies he brought, most starring young anime heroines and magic cats. It wasn’t much later that he began hearing footsteps and, assuming Duri finally decided to crawl out of his hole, turned towards the noise with a smile.
Which didn’t last long. When he saw a woman standing there instead of Duri his lips immediately melted into a deep frown. “Oh,” Seungmin began, tone heavy with disappointment, “it’s you.”
was it weird for him to be happy about something as small as this? simply, all he was doing was walking her home to the wish dorms from the halloween party that daeun and haeyeon hosted. he was dressed as peter pan, tights and all. it seemed to be a bit of a funny look on namjoon; mainly due to the fact that he was all muscly. but nonetheless, the night was cool and the stars were shining bright. his eyes kept upon wren underneath the moonlit sky, making himself a bit more flustered. though, he was trying to hide it for most of the night at the party.
but even so, he couldn’t stop thinking about just admitting how he felt out loud. though, he didn’t want to do it in the middle of a party. he promised hyejung he was going to do it soon; truly he was, just because he was nervous about her having someone else in heart before he was there. she was already residing in his heart. they reach a nice area, well lit, and where the stars shined bright. he stops himself in his tracks, and watched her walk a bit more, before his lips finally parted.”hey.. bae yoorin,” he calls her out my full name. he squeezed his eyes shut as his heart skips a beat. “i really like you.”
hanli would consider herself to be an observer. she had a fondness for people- watching, forming facts based on the details she noted. and right this moment was the perfect time to do so. they’d reached japan a few hours ago and were now in the hotel lobby, waiting for the room distributions - with so many people in such a small space in a long time, it allowed her to disappear into the crowd and avoid socializing, which hanli was incredibly thankful for. she sat on the hotel couch lazily, her earphones plugged in, music playing softly as she scanned the room, her usual calm exterior plastered on. it wasn’t until her eyes landed on a certain member of her group that she threatened to break that front.
what?
wren unnie. standing rather close (too close to be platonic, really) to... kangjun. oh my god. hanli wasn’t sure if her eyes were deceiving her but she could’ve sworn she saw kangjun put his arm around wren’s shoulders. hanli blinked once, blinked twice before it all clicked.
there was something going on.
it was easy; she could tell from the look in wren unnie’s eyes to kangjun’s smile. oh my god. oh my god. even on the plane, she’d knocked out and slept through the whole flight but at the moments where she was drowsily awake, she vaguely remembered seeing kangjun and wren cuddling in the seat in front of her. she’d been too tired to realize the seriousness of the situation, but now, as she stared, fully awake, at the pair in front of her, hanli couldn’t help but gasp.
Mark checked the names profiled to him a fourth time. He hoped that his virtual spouse saw trough his actions and is able to play along with his acting - because that's how he is facing the entirity of his participation in We Got Married as an extended character he is portraying. He knew how to delineate a whimsical persona and the married concept isn't new to him, already taking this role two times. Not satisfied with Carter already being in We Got Married, Dimensions decided that it's a good way to promote Mark even more -and so, bring even more money to the company.
Fans and non-fans are smitten with Ahn Min Hyuk and his company wanted the same response with not only the character, but the actor as well - they wanted Mark to be not only known as Asia Prince Charming but also as Asia Boyfriend Material. They didn't ask his estimation towards the subject or how he felt with it, just signing him up and not letting him know until the last minute. Enough to make him bitter but what he could do? He knows he is a puppet for his company but in the entertainment game, that's how it works: if you don't play by their cards, you never get to the finishing line and fade into oblivion just like many others artists. And Mark is already too far in the game to just give up.
Unlike his pre-task interview, they let him choose his clothing and his make up isn't as heavy, and that's good considering the date venue is informal and wearing suit and tie for such place is foreign and amateurish.
Anterior entering the establishment, he was handed a envelope and two small velvet boxes, opening both by the sheer of his curiosity. On the boxes,a beautiful engagement ring, probably picked up by his manager and on the envelope, the task for this week.
"- So by the end of the day, both os us must be wearing our rings?" he inquired to the camera crew behind him, but they didn't even move a finger. Well, at least he hoped it was that.
Squinting in the low light, he searched the rows of gaming machines for someone that also seemed inquiring, walking trough the loud bomb blasts and gunfire belching out the nearby shoot-em-up games. He saw her small face, she seemed lost and among the tall figures that played with the engines, she is rather small. Cute. Hiding the boxes on his coat, he smiled when their eyes met."- Hey," he knew her name and her group, Bae Yoorin from WISH, but they never talked before, besides the casual 'hello' and 'congratulations' from either music shows or awards." you seem like you're looking for someone. Perhaps...your virtual husband?"
Wren is my other half, the mother of our children aka the other WISH members. She is the best leader out there, always listening to us and our requests. If she can’t complete our requests, she would try to compromise with things. I respect her a lot, and I’m proud that she’s our charismatic leader. I think if she wasn’t in WISH, the group would be a mess.
The only thing I get annoyed with her is when she tries to make me not eat as much.

[ message sent to → my prettiest star 💕 ] : ah… i’ve gotten used to being with you when i sleep at night, it’s almost like i don’t feel safe when you’re not there. you know… i have those nightmares and you saw it happen when i fell asleep on the couch the one time… i always just see what happened when i was younger, it feels so real, like i’m reliving it. but sometimes, i also have dreams, where it’s good dreams and my parents are there, it feels like it’s real and like they aren’t actually gone, but then i wake up in tears and they’re not there. those two dreams are the reasons why i’m scared to sleep at night.
