[ sungmin. ]

Sungmin raked a hand through his hair in a futile attempt to keep it flat. He had relatively fine hair, so he wasn’t sure why it was misbehaving so much, if anything, he always had issues with keeping it styled. The one time he wanted to look presentable, but not try hard, just happened to be the very day he had plans with someone who wasn’t another man. If it were just another outing with his band or another male friend, Sungmin would very much show up in sweats and bedhead, but no, that wasn’t the case that morning.

The fact that he had plans with Saebyul, at all, already made him sort of jittery and self conscious, but he could handle spending the day with a girl — that part was easy. What made him actually nervous was the fact that it’d be the first time they’d be meeting face to face, in real life. Sungmin considered them online friends, for a lack of better words, and enjoyed talking to her when their schedules allowed them time to video chat. She was an interesting girl and he never got tired of hearing stories about her life overseas, but he wasn’t sure how they’d get on without a screen between them; most of what he knew about her were from her various TV appearances and brief FaceTime conversations anyway.

He wanted to make a good impression, even though he knew they’d seen each other in person before — but that was that and this was this. His clothes weren’t super fashionable but he thought he looked nice, minus his hair. “Whatever,” he muttered as he patted it down once more before grabbing his shoulder bag and heading out the door, nearly forgetting to put his shoes on in the process. Great. Sungmin was already running late as it was, and this was bound to make her impression of him even worse. The least he could do was text her.

[ to : ✿ ] so, i’m super sorry

[ to : ✿ ] ‘m running late

[ to : ✿ ] i did leave the apartment, so i promise i’m omw

The only silver lining to this was the fact that the cafe they were meeting at for lunch wasn’t too far from his apartment, so he wouldn’t be making her wait too long if he put in the effort and ran.

Saebyul actually having time off from her hectic schedule was nothing short of a miracle. These days, it feels like all she does is practice, work, eat, sleep, and then repeat. She can’t even remember the last time she went out with a friend for dinner, or drinks, or anything, really. When she was granted a day off for resting, Saebyul knew exactly how she wanted to spend her day, and was grateful that Sungmin was free to hang out with her.

Saebyul’s friendship with Sungmin was extremely different from all her other relationships. For one, he was a guy. Despite having a ton of friends, in general, an extremely small percentage of her friends happened to be males. Though she loves all of her friends, regardless of their gender, the dynamic between her male and female friends is slightly different. In addition to being a man, he was also her first and only “online friend.” All of their conversations take place over FaceTime or through text messages. Today was the first time she’d be meeting up with him, in person. However, she wasn’t really nervous, excited was probably the word for it. She hoped that she would make a good impression on him, but most people tend to like her immediately, so she wasn’t really worried. She was only a few minutes away from the cafe when she received Sungmin’s texts.

[ to : ★ ] i understand! no need to apologize!

[ to : ★ ] i’m just now approaching the cafe anyways

Standing in front of the cafe, Saebyul took a peek inside and her eyes widened in surprise and fear. They would be having lunch at a cat cafe, and she was allergic to cats. She wanted to text him and tell him that she was allergic, but she didn’t want to ruin the mood. He went through the trouble of making time in his schedule to hang out with her, and she didn’t want to make him feel bad for not knowing about her allergies. She could put up with it for a few hours, right? It was springtime, and she could probably just blame her allergic reactions on the pollen. Or maybe she should just tell him? Before she could even ponder that option further, she saw a person that looked like Sungmin walking towards her, and knew it was too late to back out now. She was just going to have to brave the storm of cats.

[ daehyun. ]

It had been quite some time since Daehyun and Saebyul had last spoken– hell, since they had last seen each other in person. The last time the two of them had been face to face, he was the one telling her to focus on her career, to forget him and to move on. After all, there wasn’t really anything to move on from anyway. The two of them hadn’t even known each other for too long and nothing major ever happened. And yet, the situation he found himself in made him feel a little bit strange and uncomfortable.

He had seen her at Summit Media for the first time in what felt like decades and the kindness within him seemed to take the upperhand almost immediately when Daehyun stretched out his hand to wave at the familiar woman. A decision he regretted almost immediately when he realized that he would have to talk to her since he basically just initiated a conversation. “Wow .. long time no see.” was all he managed to squeeze out of his throat, hoping she wouldn’t notice how embarrassed he felt at that very moment.

Despite working in the same building, and frequently attending the same events, Saebyul had managed to avoid Daehyun like the plague. While she holds no hard feelings towards him, she isn’t exactly his best friend. Whenever the two are around each other, the whole room becomes awkward and they can’t even acknowledge each other. Over the years, their only contact has been various forms of hellos, goodbyes, and good lucks. And if Saebyul could be honest, it was a sad situation. Regardless of their former quasi-relationship, they were good friends at some point, and she’d be lying if she said she didn’t miss their friendship.

Noticing Daehyun’s wave, Saebyul was glad to see that it seemed like he was ready to talk to her again. After all, there was no real reason why they couldn’t be friends, or just hold a conversation, at least. Whatever type of relationship they had in the past holds no relevance now. “Yeah, it’s been a while, hasn’t it? What have you been up to? Break any more hearts?” Saebyul smiled brightly to show Daehyun that it was just a joke. The last thing he did was break her heart, she was just trying to lighten up the atmosphere.

when half.life debuted, the muses was just beginning. the survival show placed huge amounts of stress on saebyul, and she listened to music to get away from it all. honestly, she had planned to check out the new boy group, but she didn’t expect to like their music so much. saebyul spent all of her free time listening to their songs or watching their interviews and performances. she quickly became a dedicated fan, and even had a bias in the group.

there was no idol saebyul admired more than sinn kiwon. for starters, he’s an amazing dancer, and saebyul, being a dancer herself, could appreciate his talent. he’s also the leader of his group, and from what she had seen, he seemed like a great leader and a really nice guy. she’d met kiwon before at events, but had never said more than a greeting or words of encouragement. saebyul wasn’t shy, really, she just knew that she’d make a complete fool of herself in front of him, and that was not something she wanted to risk. but after her group members practically pushed her to speak to him, she chose to introduce herself to him. what’s the worst that could happen?

she felt like she was about to confess to her crush, but one hundred times more anxious. after giving herself a mental pep talk, she decided to just rip the band-aid off. smiling, she calmly walked up to the leader of half.life and introduced herself. “hi, i’m saebyul. i’m a member of iota, and i just wanted to say that i’ve been a big fan of you and your group for a long time.”

whenever saebyul talks to her mother, she always asks the same question. ‘who looks out for you when i don’t?’ up until recently, the answer had always been the same. ‘me.’ it was the honest truth. ever since she moved to seoul, saebyul didn’t have any friends that watched over her. she constantly had a brave face on, for the sake of her members and herself. she didn’t want to burden anyone with her own problems or troubles, and presented herself as a pillar of strength for those around her. and then she met ryunho, and found that she didn’t have to put on a mask in front of him. he was always so genuine, he really cared about her life and her feelings, and it showed. his happy and encouraging persona made him one of her best friends, and her go to person when she was having a hard time keeping herself together, like today. nothing seemed to be going right for saebyul, and she felt like just giving up. it was the worst day ever.

it was a gloomy day. the clouds were a murky shade of gray, and the dark streets glistened with rainwater from the morning showers. the depressing scenery only provoked saebyul’s stress and disappointment. she was so tired of being herself, so tired of letting people walk all over her like a doormat. sighing heavily, saebyul turned her attention to the man sitting in front of her. despite being younger, he was extremely helpful and an amazing listener. she shared all of her worries, frustrations, fears, and dreams with him, and she received his undying support, in return. thinking about their friendship, she couldn’t help cracking a small smile. “why do you even put up with me, ryunho?”

bored at home with nothing else to do, saebyul decided to invite jangmi over just to talk and hang out. it’s been a while since they’ve last spoken in person. their friendship might seem a little hard to understand from the outside, specifically because both girls are so alike. but saebyul forms the best relationships with people that are similar to her. she’s rather mild-tempered and passive, usually allowing others to take initiative. she’s more of a listener than a talker, and she prefers it that way. jangmi is one of saebyul’s closest friends, and one of the very few people saebyul allows herself to be vulnerable in front of.

though it may not seem like it, saebyul is more of an extrovert. she likes a good party, and she absolutely loves performing, but she’s not extremely loud or expressive, like many perceive extroverts to be. when she allows herself to be talkative, she’s a really sweet person with a funny side. she’ll crack jokes and compliment someone’s outfit in the same sentence. when paired with those that are shy, like jangmi, that’s when saebyul’s true personality shines through. and it’s probably why the two are such good friends. they complement each other perfectly, and they aren’t afraid to be themselves when they’re together.

when the doorbell rang, saebyul practically ran to open it. she was beyond excited to hang out with her best friend again, and even more excited to just unwind. “mimi!” saebyul practically squealed as she opened the door, throwing her arms around the blonde-haired woman standing in front of her.
