"Hyungiee!" The little cub, Chaeyoung yelled once she saw Jeongyeon and Nayeon occupying a table near the water fountain together with Wonyoung, Yujin and Chaeyeon. 

"Oi little cub!" Jeongyeon plastered a smile on her face once she saw Chaeyoung running towards them with Mina and Momo following them. 

"Chaeyoung, slow down." Mina audibly said. 

Chaeyoung immediately hugged the older meme-bro of hers. "Darn I missed you so much! I've been so lonely without your dad jokes." 

Mina and Nayeon just exchanged greetings and let them catch up on one another. 

"Yeah Jeong, you've been absent for 3 days straight. Didn't know fever is still a thing in college." Yujin commented and released a chuckle. 

Wonyoung just playfully slapped her arm, "Hey we're not superhumans or some sort, we can still get sick you know?" 

"Yeah, yeah yeah. Nayeon-unnie you should've just kissed prince charming right here and maybe that fever wouldn't of have lasted for 3 days long." Yujin said smirking at Jeongyeon. 

"I tried that idea once but I got shut out of the room." Nayeon sheepishly said. 

"Oh by the way, Kim Dahyun from my class is also absent, I wonder why? Did something happened with you two?" Chaeyeon uttered, taking a sip of her milktea. 

"Ahhh, I guess she's still absent huh. She kinda tripped and fell to the stairs, breaking her ribs in the process so she had to take a rest." Chaeyoung answered, obviously lying though Mina, Nayeon and Jeongyeon knows the truth but it's better if they only keep it in their group. 

" Jeong, did you take the medicine I gave you?" Mina asked

" I did and it tastes like –OW!" Jeongyeon immediately rubbed her arm when suddenly Nayeon slapped it rather hard. 

"Language! There are children around! Wonyoung and Yujin are still 15 years old!" Nayeon said. 

Jang Wonyoung and Ahn Yujin, the power two freshmen of JYPU, bridging at its finest. 

"Yeah but stop mentioning it, You're insulting Chaeyoung!" The group even Mina, can't help but chuckle when she understood what Jeongyeon meant. 

"Yah Hyungie! Stop being such a ." Then Chaeyoung threw the drinking straw towards her.

"Hey, hey stop! No throwing of things AND look what you did Yoo Jeongyeon, even Chae is starting to follow your foul words!" Nayeon rubbed her temples when Chaeyoung and Jeongyeon just made faces at her and gave each other a high five. 

"Oh, I guess we have to go. Eunbi-unnie and Sakura-unnie is calling us already. Nice chatting with you guys, see ya!" Chaeyeon said, excusing themselves as their group, IZ*ONE just arrived in the cafeteria halls. 

"Bye!" 

As soon as they left, Tzuyu made her way towards their table which shocked Chae and Nayeon. 

"Tzuyu! Gosh it's been so long since I've seen your face." Nayeon said offering her extra ramen towards the younger who doesn't seem to bring her lunch with her. 

Tzuyu took it and muttered a soft 'Thank you' after and proceeds to eating the ramen joyfully. Yes, joyfully, her aura is so different than before. Others find it peculiar to see her so cheerful. 

"Ouch! What the hell?" Chaeyoung yelled as Jeongyeon pinched her. 

"Well at least you're not dreaming." The older said. 

"Hmm you seem so happy Tzuyu-ah." Mina started off. 

"Yeah, it looks like someone got a score last night." Nayeon said wiggling her eyebrows. 

Tzuyu choked on her ramen after hearing that, "What? No!" She defended.

"Then why the hell is your face screaming victory? Hmm, mind explaining it?" Chaeyoung said. 

"It's just that, I found something and I wasn't so sure of it till now." Tzuyu explained. 

Mina was looking at Tzuyu eagerly, like she knows what's going on with her mind but the ballerina chose not to make assumptions first, "Well just be careful Tzuyu-ah, it's like what they say, great power comes with great responsibility." And with that it's like Mina has just hit a spot that made Tzuyu drop her chopsticks. 

'Mina knows something' 

"Unnie, I'd like to speak with you in your vacant time, is that okay?" Tzuyu asked, eyes desperate for answ
