November 2021,

Friends.

I always thought having friends were one of God's given treasures. I'm one of those believers as well. Not a lot, but those who you can trust and treasure every memories together. As an introvert, people thought I have zero friends. Yet that was proven false. I just know how to keep in contact with people.

CEO: Come in.

Me: Excuse the intrusion- Oh hyung is in here as well? Should I come at another time?

I knocked on the door to the CEO office only for me to be surprise to see S.Coups hyung in there as well.

S.Coups: No worries. We're done anyways. See you-

Me: Actually hyung. I do need advise from you as well. Is it possible to hear me out?

I interrupted him to his confusion. Nonetheless, he sat back down as I sat beside him facing our CEO.

CEO: Is there something wrong Killian?

He start by asking me. Shaking my head as I looked back at him.

Me: No sir. Just want to have different opinions.

CEO: And that is?

Me: I want to know if it's possible for idols to have a somewhat 'healthy' relationship with their friends?

My questions managed to raise both of their eyebrows.

Me: I've read online that idols can't date to avoid scandals. I can understand that part, but I'm confused with why is it so wrong to be friends in the same industry? I know that SEVENTEEN sunbaenim have a lot of friends. But for us 4th gen it became lesser to the point of extinction. I just want from your POV and what we should do as a group if we have idol friends.

My question was then heard by our CEO and S.Coups hyung. They nodded in understanding before thinking and gave the answer.

CEO: Actually, there's nothing wrong with being friends. But the main reason is the -

S.Coups: - fans. Toxic fans will always find a way to put a 'label' on idols. This became more prominent starting from us 3rd gen up until yours. Th 2nd gen idols have no problems at all.

CEO: What he said. But if you truly want to be friends with them. Then go for it. There's nothing with it. But for extra precaution, we can set up an interview with them and come clean to the public. That way, we won't let the fans in the dark. I think that it'll become a big thing if we hide it to the public. The same goes to you S.Coups.

S.Coups: Me?

Hyung pointed to himself making the CEO laughed.

CEO: Yeah. You guys are hitting 30 in a few years. If you guys wanna date then sure. I know it's a silent agreement to not date. But you guys deserve happiness. I'm sure CARATS want it too. So if you guys decide to date, express it publicly. I'm sure your fans will be more to welcome them into the family.
