After Dachun Gate, as my member so fondly call it, we were right back into our schedules. Our manager got tired of trying to figure out where I disappeared to for the past three weeks and finally started giving us more schedules as the group seemed to get its together. That conversation will probably go down as one of the funniest conversations.

“Yah! Yah yah yah yah yah yah~” Renni yelled really loudly towards Jinju’s direction.

“Yah? Have you lost your mind?” She yelled back even louder. Renni frowned and made a face.

 “I’m just doing pitch exercises! What’s wrong with you?”

“Yah~ you’re being a rude brat again, Ryejin-ah.” She rolled her eyes at Minah and kept doing it.

“I think she’s missed having your hands on her, how about the two of you get close again?” Nari suggested off-handedly stretching in front of the studio mirror. I couldn’t help but laugh because, oh no, here it comes: she woke the sleeping dragons~

“Stay out of it, don’t feed into the brats’ antics.” Joonmi said practicing some dance moves.

“STaY 0uT 0f It, d0N’t f33D Int0 tH3 bRAts’ aNtIcs.” Renni mumbled back and all hell broke loose. Joonmi ran over to Renni trying to hit her but overstepped and knocked into Jinju who pushed her back into Minah, who grabbed onto Renni’s hair.

I couldn’t help but sit down and look at my unnies fight as usual moving a random shoe out of the way before Minah tripped getting to Renni. I’m not sure how much time passed but our manager burst into our studio red in the face.

“Why is it every time I come to this damn practice room it’s to break your four up! Why am I laughed at by the other staff for being over you girls?!?! Yah! Lee Suri!”

“Hakyeon-oppa, you do this every time but you know how this plays out.” She said scooting the left to avoid the fight.

“Yah! Choi Dain! Where the hell have you been? You’ve not been on camera for three weeks! I’ve checked the tapes!” He yelled louder over the Dragons, hitting Jinju with newspaper he had in his hand.

“Aigoo~ Aigoo! Stop it!” He yelled and turned back to me.

“I had some things to take care of. I was sick and needed to rest at home.” I lied through my teeth and scoffed crossing his arms before zig-zagging his steps to avoid the fight. Mel stuck out her foot and all of them fell on the ground. It was silent for a minute or two before they began fighting again.

“I looked up to Jisung hyung for taking care of 2NE1 but of course I must have sold my country away to get you demon children!” He yelled to the Dragons. “You lying children!” He yelled directly to me. “And you really mean and bad children!” He yelled at spinning around in circles pointing at all of us to let us know that we were those ‘really mean and bad’ children. I couldn’t help but laugh at the whole situation and threw his hat down.

“That’s it! I’m cancelling all of your schedules! This means stopping your money! Go home! Go to college! Go to your rooms! Just get the hell out!” He yelled before slamming our studio door.

“DAMN!”

“That’s right you ers! You owe me $40 a piece! I called that the demon- I mean Dragon line would get us a vacation some type of way!” Mel screamed, laughing loudly afterwards. Suri started laughing and closed my mouth for me before getting up to cross the room, coming back slapping the money in Mel’s hand.
She stood in the middle of the room and put her hands on her hips.

“So, where are you ers going for your vacation? We’ve earned a brief vacation right?”

“And your manager forced you all to have a vacation? For fighting? Wow~, yall are crazier than I thought!”

“Ashley, I promise you it started out the same way all of our fights ever start and then bam! Vacation! You all are disgraceful, go away!” I said laughing loudly in Sawgrass Mall. I wanted to go back home so I let my cousin Ashley know and she let me stay with her.

“I still can’t believe it happened! I’ve watched the Korean idol shows, you just don’t get vacations out of the blue.”

“If you have crazy members like I do, uh huh.”

I was so focused on retelling the whole situation that I didn’t realize that a lot of people were looking at me. I didn’t think as I shopped for my members.

“To cancel your events, you sure have a lot of money to get your members gifts.”

“I wouldn’t hear the end of it if I came back from the States without presents for those monsters.” Ashley mushed my head and walked ahead as I fell behind pulling my phone out of my bag.

“Hello~”

“Hey baby.” I almost dropped my phone and looked around before I responded.

“Oppa! What are you doing up this late! You should be sleep!”

“I will but I needed to hear your voice, first.”

“Ah~ Don’t do that.” I pouted as if he could see me.

“It’s because I miss you. I should never doubt the random skills your members possess.” I couldn’t help but laugh because it was true! My members were like superheroes but with weird as powers like insults, and physical violence but with pretty voices and cool dance moves.

“I miss you, too. I don’t even remember the last time I kissed you.”

“Oh, you fox!” He said loudly which made me laugh just as loudly.

“Oh wae~ I want to kiss and hug you.”

“You really know how to be cute and make me miss you even more when you’re so far away. Asking for a kiss, oh fox~!”

“Don’t tease me! When I see that’s the first thing I want to do. Remember? When we kissed in the elevator?”

“Who are YOU talking to, like that?” Ashley asked loudly. “Kissed in an elevator?”

“Ashley shut up and give me my phone before I blast your through this mall!” I threatened and she left me alone pushing me into a plant.

“So? Kissing? Me? You?”

“How about we wait until the 20^th?”

“Yah! You’re setting a date on when I can kiss you? Yoochun-ah, you’re mine. I don’t need to schedule dates on when to kiss you!”

“And then you become that rude brat I miss. ‘Yoochun-ah? Yoochun-oppa! And the 20^th is a special day!”

I racked my brain on why the 20^th of this month was special when it hit me and I felt my face get hot.

“Somebody is thinking rather loudly,, I’m guessing you figured it out?”

“Yah~ you’re making me shy!” He only laughed in response and I pictured his squished eyes and full lips curled up.

“I really miss you, Yoochun-ah…I only get a kiss when I see you?”

“If you’re good I’ll give you something better.” I smiled and covered my face because ot hirt from smiling so hard.

“Arraso~. Text me in the morning, I’ll respond. I have to go.”

“Alright, it was good hearing your voice, baby. Now I’m guaranteed a good night’s rest.” He said thickly and I imagined him in bed with bed hair and that droopy smile he sometimes gets which turns into a smirk when he catches me watching him and then he raises his eyebrow and oh my gawd am I really doing this in public???

“Okay, bye! I’m hanging up right now!” He laughed in that knowing way and it made my skin feel tight.

“Once again, you’re thinking to loud but I’m sure oppa would have liked these thoughts, hmm?”

“HANGING UP NOW!” I couldn’t hang up fast enough but when he acted all mature and y, it really made me out of sorts. I never know which way is up or down…well down is the hard ground if I didn’t just side step pass the escalator. Get yourself together, Dain~
