Aesthetics (Moonsun)

She stared at the clock on the wall, the ticking of it reveberating against the entire house, making her feel sick to the core. It was torture, waiting up for her step-sister this late, when she could be using her time wisely for sleep, studies, or another girl.

" 3 AM...where is that girl?" Dragging a palm across her face and letting it fall back onto her bare lap, she peered through the see-through doors of the balcony, the tidal patterns of the waves at the beach their house overlooked ever so calming.

Summer was arriving soon, the Sun would come knocking on her door before she knew it.

She chuckled at that pun she just said in her head.

It was cold, how could her step-sister do this to her? Moonbyul was sitting on the sofa in nothing but her undies and a slightly see-through white tank top, her usual sleepwear. But nooooo, little Miss "Sunshine" just had to ruin everything for her, right?

Their parents were abroad for a business trip, their dog passed away a week ago, the tears streaming down Solar's face was fresh in Moonbyul's mind, the only time Solar was that sad was when she desperately tried to get drunk, only to remain frustratedly sober.

You see, love has many aesthetics.

The superficial one: it screams robotic grey and melancholic pink, such iconic colours giving people an uncomfortable feel.

The clarity one: it was as clear as translucent turquoise waters and as pure as diamond white. It was easy, direct and lovely.

But the love in this circumstance, was the forbidden one: it was mysterious with overlapping shades of unsure yellow and daring red, it was hot and full of passion.

" You're late. Again," Moonbyul spat the moment she heard the door open.

" Late? For what?" Solar asked cluelessly as she fumbled to pull her bra strap up. Her shirt was ed and the zipper of her shorts were down too, revealing her yellow .

" You kept me up," Moonbyul replied as she got off the sofa to stand up for dramatic effect. She had enough of this whole waiting up for her step-sister. What better way to end it than with a confrontation.

" So? It's not my fault you're waiting up for me..." Solar remarked sassily, flipping her hair for dramatic effect as well.

Chapter 25: Woohoo! Thank you for writing this for Mamamoo's 4th anniversary~ I like the fact that this chapter is about them reminiscing the most memorable past.

Oo wow, I wouldn't have known that Wheein's memory was an actual one if you hadn't mentioned it at the end. (A fail fan here: I haven't finished watching Secret Unnie >.<) Knowing that it's really what Wheein went though, it makes this story more melancholic. She's been through so much these past 4 years (and more). That shade though ahaha: 'This group was her dream group, there was no other group that she could every try being in apart from this one- albeit a better name could've been chosen, but she takes what she can get.' I like how amidst the worries and concerns she had after their debut performances, she still looked at the positive side which kept her going.

I really like how Hwasa's memories is basically of Wheein, but it's inevitable since they spent almost all their lives together. Hwasa's memory is too cute. (Have you watched the Life Bar episode where Wheesa appeared on it? They did say that they probably know each other more than their parents do!) It's nice that Hwasa appreciates the contrasting personalities she and Wheein have. It definitely made their friendship more meaningful.

Byul's memory is just so full of insecurities that it hurts reading it. Another shade there ahaha: 'Yes, for the first time, she was in her own house.' - I choked a little! I love the way you ended Byul's memory with this line: 'They had made a moment she would have wanted to forget, into a moment she knew she had to remember for the rest of her life, and she didn't know how to repay them.' I'm so glad that her members didn't leave her alone to her thoughts and insecurities.

Of course Solar's memory would be linked to her role as the leader. I think in general, throughout all of their memories, no matter how different they are, it all comes back to the main point on how the four of them stuck through everything together. They became each other's supports whether or not they know it. They stepped up to the occasion when they're needed to do so, and seeing how the four of them recognised this fact makes my heart feel warm.

Just two comments on your writing: I felt that the ending was rather abrupt, seeing how there's an introduction paragraph but not an ending one. Also, most of the paragraphs are rather lengthy. The paragraphs could be split to become shorter ones so that it's easier to be read.

Thank you very much for writing this! :)

Chapter 24: Comments for Teasing: Ugh Byul's such a loser ahahahah but aww I like how heartwarming this story is at the end. That last paragraph is everything! Interesting that we get to see the different reactions of the members. For some reason through their reaction I could feel their love for Byul too, expressed in their own ways. :') I get the feeling Byul is certain of her members' love for her, and so she was comfortable teasing them. :') (Also, I can almost hear Yongsun's "ISANGHAE!" haha!)
Comments for The Sun: I am such a er for imagery and I think you've beautifully brought out the actual sun/Yongsun imagery through Byul's POV. I really like how when the sun is not visible being covered by rain clouds, another sun appears to bring light to Byul's life. Seems like this story isn't complete though! I guess we'll never know what happens between Byul and Yongsun. Interesting how I could hear Byul's turmoil.
Thank you for this update! :)

Chapter 23: Welcome back! I enjoyed reading both stories.
In Lucky, I really liked seeing how greasy Byul can be at one point, and the next moment she becomes very sincere.
Azegag is too cute and funny xD

Chapter 23: Nooo :'(
I like how you wrote Byulyi's answer as one whole chunk and making it sound forced. Seemed like she has been feeling that way for a long time :/
Hope the rest supports Hyejin as well, especially if she continues having that image of Byul in her head :/
