Everlast had been so busy the next week with filming contents and practicing that Hayun felt like she couldn't get a break.
Hayun sat alone at a corner table in the cozy cafe, the soft hum of conversation and the aroma of freshly brewed coffee enveloping her in a comforting embrace.
She had decided to stop by after a rigorous dance practice session, seeking solace in the familiar surroundings as she nursed a steaming cup of coffee to recharge before returning to practice.
As she stared out the window, lost in her thoughts, she couldn't help but feel a twinge of loneliness creep in. Despite the bustle of the cafe around her, she felt strangely isolated, as if she were a mere observer in her own life.
Hayun was startled out of her thoughts by a cheerful voice that broke through the quiet of the cafe. She looked up to see Mei, Chenle's girlfriend, approaching her table with a bright smile.
"Hey girl, mind if I join you?" Mei asked, her tone warm and inviting as she gestured to the empty seat opposite Hayun.
Hayun blinked in surprise, not expecting the sudden intrusion into her solitude. But something about Mei's presence felt comforting, and she found herself nodding in response, a small smile playing at the corners of her lips.
"No- come sit with me. It's lonely out here." Hayun replied in a dramatic fashion, gesturing for Mei to take a seat.
As Mei settled into the chair opposite her, the warmth of her smile seemed to fill the space between them, easing the tension that had settled over Hayun like a heavy blanket.
As they talked, Hayun couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort with Mei. She was just so warm, so gentle and sweet.
"How have you been?" She asked Hayun. "Now that you've debuted and everything."
"I feel good." Hayun smiled. "It's crazy...it's definitely a crazy experience." "You're literally doing so well, you're killing it." Mei complimented. "How's it going with your group, is it all going well? You joined a little later, I know how Chenle felt with that...I just want to make sure you're all good." She clarified, not wanting to push.
"No, it's okay I get it. It was hard at first but we've definitely got closer..." she trailed off and Mei raised her eyebrows softly. "But?" She urged Hayun to say all she had on her mind.
The words were on the tip of her tongue but she hesitated, not wanting to complain about her situation because she was so grateful. She shook her head. "No, I'm honestly happy we're closer. I feel much better than I did at the beginning."
