Out of all of the girls, Dahyun got sick the easiest and, over the years, Nayeon had been trained in how to deal with her. Dahyun got fussy when she got sick and that was something that had never changed, no matter how old she got. "It's okay," Nayeon said, supporting her daughter's weight and guiding her up the stairs to her bedroom. Had Dahyun not been feeling sick, Nayeon would have yelled at her for her part of the room being a mess (Chaeyoung's side was also a mess but less so than Dahyun and Tzuyu's part of the room was clean as normal, probably because Tzuyu had been yelled at to clean her third of the room only a few days ago).
