A week later

CHAEYOUNG

"Chaeyoung-ah!"

Hearing that very familiar voice made me realize that, indeed, I'm back. I'm home. 

A place I left behind to pursue this career and also to forget about her.

Now that I'm back, I hope this place will be nicer to me.

Most of all, I hope I won't bump into her.

"Yah! you sneaky cub! a month huh?!" an angry squirrel together with a raging bunny was the first to welcome me.

I just scratched my head not knowing how to answer the both of them.

"You really have a lot of explaining to do, Chaeng." 

I was startled when Tzuyu spoke and put her arm around my shoulders.

From what I remembered, I only told Nayeonie about me coming back here.

I even use my English name in my paintings and even asked Mr. Snow to hide my identity to the media to protect my privacy. One thing I realized after being mentored by Mr. Snow is that in order to focus on my craft I needed to deal with media in a very least possible way. 

"We should wait 'til your exhibit, Chae. By the time the exhibit starts, I'll introduce you to the media properly."

Oh well, I guess these three continued to contact each other even after I left.

"Alright, let's go to my place then." 

I feel like I needed to make it up for not telling them about my plans back then. I guess, I really owe them an explanation.

"Right, c'mon." Nayeonie said.

"Uhhh... excuse me?" I hear Somi's voice and that had me turn around to see Somi.
