it's been a year since the masquerade ball.

you'd only ever texted nari and joowon, never meeting up in-person.

you all liked the mystery of not knowing each other's true face.

sky, on the other hand, was a mystery.

every time you messaged him, the number would respond with "Sorry, this number is not allowed to the public. Please contact the owner to allow you into their messages."

you hadn't seen sky since that day, so how would you?

but, good news is, the masquerade ball was approaching again.

it was annual.

maybe you could see sky again?

ahead of time, you sent a picture of your outfit to nari and joowon so they could identify you.

"yeah i'm pulling up right now,"

you said, holding the phone to your hear as you parked.

"okay, see you in a bit, bye,"

there was a large part of you that hoped you'd see sky again.

check on how he's doing after he, you know, kinda ghosted you?

your phone rang, and without looking at who it was, you answered, slowly approaching the entrance.

"chill guys, i'm almost at the door,"

you waited for a voice to respond, and you got one.

"woah someone actually answered his phone,"

someone said from the other line.

"huh? who is this?"

you pulled your phone away from your ear to see the contact.

it was sky.

"sky? you finally called me?"

"sky?? who's sky? oh wait,"

the voice laughed from the other side of the phone.

"who are you if you're not sky, huh?"

you tried to sound intimidating.

"oh...hmmm...let's just say my name is peter,"

the man on the other side of the phone, peter, introduced himself.

"okay then. where's sky?"

you asked, stopping a few feet outside the doors.

"i dunno. i'll—"

"why are you on my phone?! who are you on the phone with?!"

a voice entered the room.

"oh, hey, sky,"

peter emphasized sky's name.

there was a sound of a microphone being rubbed on something, then sky spoke.
