“I reminded you about that jacket…” Seulgi said in a deadpanned tone.

Wendy breathed out shakily, “I know…”

“Twice.” Her 94-liner buddy continued with that tone.

She nodded with an apologetic look before breathing out shakily again, “I know…”

Irene was giving her a sympathetic look from across the radio table and she attempted a smile to ease her leader’s concern. Their leader could be a kid at times but at heart, the doll-faced beauty was very sweet.

A few minutes later, Ryeowook was throwing out questions given by the fans. Irene averted her watchful eyes from Wendy and began politely answering. Wendy clenched her jaws and teeth together, mentally willing the cold to seep out of her bones.

Suddenly she felt a noise at her side.

Her eyes were wide as she watch Joy drag her seat closer and take off her jacket to cover the both of them under it.

Ryeowook saw and beamed, “Aw how cute. The maknae is looking after the unnie. That’s so sweet.” He praised.

Joy grinned in response, “This unnie is always needing to be looked after.”

Wendy wanted to open to retort but decided not to.

Oh that smile.

It remained embedded deeply into a certain Toronto girl’s mind.

And as she lay in bed that night...

She wonders why...
