Twice's 10th Member Haeju

Mall - Part 3

"Haeju-ya, what do you think about this one?" Nayeon shows me a pink earring that she pretends to wear it.
"Oh, I like that one!"
"It's pink. Of course you like it. You're so predictable," she says.
"Haeju likes pink?" Momo, who was busy looking at the accessories, looks interested with us.
"She likes pink, strawberry, or anything like that," Nayeon explains. "Right, Haeju-ya?"
"Nae... Hehe!"
"Me too! That means you'll like this," Momo gives me a silver ring with a strawberry picture on it.
"Wow! Ohh... I like it!" I take it from her. Automatically, I try it on my finger. It fits.
"Nayeon, this one for you..." Momo gives another similar ring to Nayeon before she puts one to her own finger. "I like them too."
"It's cute. I never have a couple anything with Haeju before. What do you think?" Nayeon asks.
"Just three of us?" I ask back.
"Me too... I want to be coupled with Haeju too," Momo says.
"Well, we can buy 10 rings if you want. Up to you," Nayeon speaks again.
"Uww, I'd love that idea! I love this ring as well, I'll definitely buy it although if you didn't suggest the idea. Haha..."
"Oh, you like this one? I was going to tell us to look around first."
"Should we look around first?"
"Should we?"
"Let's find the perfect couple items!
"Mm, let's just buy for three of us," I whisper to them.
"Ah, okay okay!"
"Cool!"

After that, I'm having fun more with Nayeon and Momo. We explore the whole store, trying to find the best couple items. But we end up coming back to buy the strawberry rings. Nayeon says, "This way I can keep remembering Haeju..."

Today I realize that I'm with Namo. I used to have a hard time to talk to them. They were kinda like my, ehm, nemesis among the members. I always made problems with them. I'm soooo glad that we have made up. They are so nice to me. I feel comfortable with them as well. They're just so lovely now. I wonder what's waiting for us in the future. Today will be the end of me throwing shades on them.

"Nayeon... Momo..." I call her name while we're in front of the cashier.
"Yes?" they answer me, almost at the same time.
"Uhh, nothing. Hehe~"

I love you, guys!

"Chaeyoung, what do you buy?" I ask the second maknae of Twice. Our cutie baby tiger, Son Chaeyoung.
It happens that we're sitting together in the food court. She tells me what she buys calmly. It's really fun to talk to her because she has a completely different taste with the other members. She always surprises me with what she thinks good.

"Oww, that's cute!" I compliment a brown pen with heart stickers on it.
Chaeyoung plays it with her hands. "Haeju... Actually, there's something I want to say to you," suddenly she sounds so serious. Unlike Tzuyu or even Dahyun, she's comfortable to call me by my name. Although sometimes it's still 'Unnie'.

"What is it?~" I'm being bubbly. She smirks for a second.
"Mm... So, I know you've been so close with someone these days. One of the members..."
"Hmm?"
"I see you are so close with-"
"Ah, yeah, Chaeyoung-a! Actually, I haven't talked with her for a while now. But well, yes I'm close to her," I say as I think I know who she's talking about. "Why?"
"I... I don't want you to misunderstand it but... I don't really like to see two of you together," she says.
"You don't- What do you mean?"
"She and I used to be so close before you came. It's not that I don't like you. I really like you. You're a fun person and you're so helpful for Twice. But I need you to know that she doesn't belong to you. Please, stay away from us..."
I listen to Chaeyoung's explanation carefully. I think it's my mistake. Tzuyu has warned me about Michaeng before. I'm wrong for denying it. I only thought that Mina was closest with Momo. I didn't know that Michaeng is this real.

Apparently, it is...

"Sorry, Chaeyoung-a. I... I understand."
"You... You understand, right? Aww, I really don't want you to misunderstand this!" she hugs me all of sudden. I'm a little bit shocked.
Then I pat her back. "It's okay. We're still friends, right?"
"We are!"
"I get it. I'll give it a go just because you're pretty, you know?" I joke. She smiles to hear that. I look at her eyes deeply. "You're beautiful. Cool. I learn many things about rapping secretly by watching you."
"I'm always jealous with your rapping skill too! You're tall and perfect," she says unexpectedly.
"You're small and cute, aren't you?! You're passionate about what you do. I actually think she really likes you," I tell her.
"Hehe, you think so? Does it mean you ship us?"
"Oho... That's another story!" I release my hands that were holding her shoulders. I take a sip of my strawberry smoothie. "Once says we are the rap rivals, you know?"
"Yes, I've heard about it..."
"Well, I guess now we are rivals more than just in rapping!"
Chaeyoung takes a sip of her caramel macchiato. "I understand," she says calmly. She sounds relaxed, but my heart is beating so fast. I take a peek at her. She's smiling. I guess her heart is lighter after confessing what she thinks about Mina to me.

I take her hands and hold them. "Michaeng, as expected..."
"MICHAENG?!" Chaeyoung is confused after I mention that ship name.
"Ehh, right? Chaengmi? Did I remember it wrong?"
"I... I wasn't talking about Michaeng."
"WAIT, WHAT?"
"Mina is my best friend! Just friends," she whispers.
"So, who are we talking about here then?" I ask out of confusion. I wonder which member that Chaeyoung has a crush on.
"Wait, you have a crush on Mina???" she asks me back.
"I don't know.... Ya! Tell me!!! I will tell you about mine if you tell me about yours." I shake her arms. Then I realize that I'm being so loud. I lower my voice. "Sorry, who is it?" I whisper.

All she does is smirking.

"Who is it? Tell me, Chaeyoung-aaaaa...!"

While walking to the exit, I cough so hard that all the other members looked at me. I laugh because of our, one and only comedian, Kim Dahyun. She can't stop making me laugh with her craziness. She's so extra! I think that's why the other loves to "bully" her the most. She's fun. And pretty too, not to mention, ehm! She's so white and I love white. Haha... Dahyun is just so lovely.
Sana then comes to us to join. Momo too.

It was only three of us before: Me, Dahyun, and Tzuyu. Before all the laughs, actually, we were talking about making a sub-unit that we've been planning.
Its name is 'GG'.
Not 'Girls Generation'. but 'Gemini Generation'. Kinda like a parody of them. Intentionally. I have this idea because three of us are Gemini. Maybe it's not that obvious, but three of us has one similarity. Do you know what is it?

Yes, three of us are childish!

Tzuyu is obviously the most maknae you've ever seen. Cute since born.
Dahyun is so loud and active. She just wants to have fun.
And me? I'm obsessed with love and friendship. I think it's the sweetest thing to experience.

One day we realized those things and we decided to make our own group (and then I came up with the project idea, as usual).

"Dahyun, do you think it's gonna work?" I ask her about it.
"Of course! Let's make something fun. I love your idea," she answers.
"Definitely not gonna work," Tzuyu says jokingly.

I'm thinking that maybe GG will involve all the members, but the leaders will be three of us. I will discuss more it with them. We'll figure out what to do with GG.

"Dahyun, do you think it's gonna work?"
"Unnie, you just asked me the same thing 1 minute ago."
"Definitely won't gonna work, Unnie," Tzuyu says.
"Wae waeee???" 
Tzuyu just laughs and leaves us going blank.
