Inkigayo has ended a while back and 5 Pieces are now sitting in the recording room to do the Japanese version of [Hey! Hey! Hey!]. Carolina will come after her radio.

The girls are all focused on the recording the first two hours, before they starts to get tired and if they aren’t recording there are either going online on the computer/cell phone, reading or doing something else. The one who is recording at that time is though all focused on the Japanese and to make a good song. Ace is with them too, so he gets a lot of attention even when he is sleeping in the sofa.

Hannah has nothing against cuddling with Ace now, since they have spent these few days together. She still closes her door at night and is very careful when she doesn’t know where Ace is – afraid he will pop up somewhere.

She is now sitting on the floor, playing with Ace by rolling him around on his back and he playfully tries to bite her fingers. She gives out a simple laugh and keeps smiling – it is fun. Hannah is sitting there also when Carolina arrives and Hannah happily asks how the radio program went.

Three hours later, Hannah is sleeping on the floor by the door (since there were no space in the sofa and she can’t lie down in the chair). Emelia is also sleeping, but she is the one who takes up the space in the sofa, sleeping with her legs over Carolina. Julia is doing the recording now, and she looks tired when she is being told to re-do the part. Maria went on a little walk with Ace around the building – she said she won’t leave the floor if no one wants to go along since she is afraid.

When Maria comes back, she lets Ace jump on top of Hannah to wake her up. Maria sits down next to Hannah on the floor when Hannah sits up, both of them cuddling with Ace. A minute later, Maria is resting her head on Hannah’s shoulder.

It’s over midnight, and they are all tired, but they were told to finish the recording since the final touch up will be on Tuesday; they don’t have time otherwise.

Hannah puts her hand tiredly over her face when Park Hyekyung focuses the camera on them to take a picture.

“I think our fans really know us,” Maria says out of the blue. Ace has lied down on her knees and is enjoying Maria’s cuddling. “They gave us the cutest kitten who already has gotten used to us, AND his name is Ace. I mean … he was born to be with us!”

“You noticed that now?” Hyekyung chuckles and hands over the camera to Maria after that she has waved for it.

“No. But I’m saying it now,” Maria answers and takes the camera. A second later she is taking pictures of herself and on Ace who is falling asleep. She also makes Hannah join for the pictures, and like always when they get a little too tired none of their expressions looks normal. Hannah even pouts her lips to Maria for a kiss but after a picture she does something else.

“I’m gonna upload this one,” Maria says to no one particular a little later, but Hannah looks at the picture and sees it is one of the pictures they took just now, of both Maria and Hannah.

“How’s the solo’s going for the concert then?” Hyekyung asks when they are close to finish.

“Working on it,” Emelia is fast to answer.

“I’m weighting over two songs,” Maria answers. “I decided to take a Miley Cyrus song, since they didn’t want me to take a ballad – so Shin Hyesung was left out… - but I am weighting over [7 Things] and [Can’t Be Tamed]. Hannah thinks the second song, while I was recommended to take the first one by our vocal trainer.”

Hyekyung nods and asks the other girls.

“I’m going to do [Kissing You],” Carolina answers, her eyes glued on the computer screen. “Since that was the first Korean song I liked.”

“She is doing an SNSD song on 5 Pieces’ concert,” Emelia doesn’t seem to like it.

“You said you are going to take a song by TraX, there is no difference,” Carolina pouts.

“At least Jungmo said he’ll perform it with me,” Emelia reaches her tongue out.

“Jungmo will perform with you?” Hyekyung seems impressed and Emelia smiles widely at him.

“He said he can help me out since I want a rock-feel in my performance, but we haven’t decided on the song yet,” Emelia answers.

“Julia and Hannah then?” Hyekyung wonders.

“I talked to our vocal trainer about doing Chris Medina’s [What Are Words],” Julia answers in a low voice.

“You are crazy in that song,” Maria comments.

“But it’s good,” Julia defends.

“I know,” Maria smirks.

“Hannah?” Hyekyung asks the final member who just shrugs her shoulders, saying she doesn’t know what kind of song she wants.

“I’m telling her to do a y one,” Maria is fast to tell Hyekyung. “Since she is our y baby. But Carro said she should do a cute one, since she is our baby. I’m still sticking to the y part.”

Hannah does a grimace with her face, thinking. She has been in deep thoughts about what kind of solo she wants to do on their concert. She was told that she will get to perform her solo debut song [Burning] from last year, but that isn’t counted as her solo because Emelia will also perform two songs from her solo activities.

“It must be fun though,” Hyekyung smiles when they are wrapping up and starting to leave.

“It’s too much planning,” Maria complains, “I can barely wait for us to stand on that stage and face our fans, perform all our great songs. And that both concerts in January sold on together in seven minutes is making my heart go *thump, thump* 100 times around.”

Hannah smiles just by the thought of it. In two months, she will be on their first solo concert ever, and she is nervous but excited and she is longing for it. Maria’s funny way to talk also makes them chuckle.

A few hours later, Hannah gets out of the van outside a building that does not belong to SM Entertainment. She walks inside and is showed to a practice room. Quietly she opens the door to peek inside, hearing the band playing.

It takes a few seconds before someone in the room notices her and she smiles when she walks inside.

“Hello!” she waves to FT Island, who is loudly greeting her too. “I hear it is going well for you.”

“Then you couldn’t have heard much,” Jonghun jokes with her.

Hannah has come to practice with FT Island for the band’s upcoming concert at the end of the month. They have to practice this early of the month due to the crashing schedule otherwise. Hannah drops her bag and does high five with Seunghyun – without a reason; he just raised his hand for her.

They chat a little before the topic comes in on the song Hannah will feature in.

“I have taught the guys the song,” Honggi starts and Hannah laughs when all of the others in the band says against Honggi, saying that Honggi have just been singing while they had to learn the song on their own. But since they haven’t really finished learning it or know how to synch with the voices, they start to practice right away.

Hannah listens to how the band makes [Endless Love] sound. She has only heard the recorded version, so this is the first time a band will perform the song.

The practice goes on until it sounds really good and they have found a way to make it a little FT Island style.

“Where are you going now?” Minhwan asks out of curiosity when they are leaving. FT Island will go eat dinner, take a break from the practice, while Hannah has ended her practice.

“Dinner,” Hannah answers. She smiles widely towards Minhwan who is walking next to her. “Puzzle have sent a cake and Julia texted me, saying it looks really cool. And when Maria comes back from her filming we will eat meat. And we will end our anniversary with a special on Carolina’s radio.”

Hannah turns around when hearing Seunghyun and Honggi both give out a laugh when she mentions meat. They are walking down the stairs and Hannah feels Seunghyun’s hand on her shoulder.

For the rest of the day, Hannah can feel the celebration of their three year anniversary. A room at the agency has been filled with presents that was sent there just today, a lot of fans wishing 5 Pieces the best and a continue success for many years forward. Hannah, Carolina and Julia are both sitting in that room when Emelia comes back from the recording for her Japanese debut next year.

Emelia sits down with them, telling how the recording went.

“I bet I’ll be more popular than Hannah in Japan after this,” Emelia talks about her debut. “My songs will rock.”

Hannah just smiles. She has nothing against Emelia being more popular than her, but since Emelia wants to be the most successful member in Japan, Hannah can let her be that.

“Ah, right, Appa said we are leaving,” Emelia then says.

The other girls look at her. “Now?”

“He said now,” Emelia nods, not bothered at all by the fact that she has been sitting there for a few minutes.

“And you tell us that NOW?” Carolina asks and gets up, followed by the others. Emelia just shrugs her shoulders, not finding a reason to rush it.
