- I cannot! - Chaeyoung screamed loudly, waking up half of the dorm at 1:00 am. - Unnie! - the “little animal” whined plaintively, calling on everyone who woke up to come to her.
- What's wrong with you, Chaeyoung? - Nayeon grumbled with a sleepy yawn, the first and only one who ran to the call of the maknae. She was wearing her favorite rabbit slippers, and she was also dressed in pajamas with a pattern of cute bunnies with carrots in their paws. Her bob-cut hair stood on end, and thick-rimmed glasses dangled from her nose.
- I tried to model our outfits for the next TTT, but no matter how I tried to draw an arc from here - I poked a pencil into the drawn sketch of the future sundress - I couldn’t! she sighed depressingly, waiting for a decision from her older friend.
-We still have a whole week ahead, Chaeyoung, - yawning wider, almost not comprehending the quick words from the maknae, Nayeon said, carefully sitting down on the bed, trying not to wrinkle the scattered album sheets with painted outfits. - Go to bed, tomorrow with a fresh mind, you will find solutions, - Nayeon advised, starting to get up from a comfortable bed, she hurried to get into her bed, hug a plush bunny with a little penguin and watch a pleasant dream.
-Perhaps you are right, for some reason it seemed to me that I needed to hand it in tomorrow, - she relaxed after Nayeon said, slowly began to collect all the sheets, put them on the table, then lay down and closed her eyes.
-Sweet dreams, little animal, - turning off the light in the room, Nayeon wished good night as she left.

"Why doesn't it work?! "The next morning, which by coincidence turned out to be a free day, all the girls wanted to sleep, but they were awakened by the displeased voice of Chaeyoung. "Why don’t you want to be right in the direction I’m leading you!" She scolded her hand, looking at the ruined (another) outfit, the same sundress that she lovingly drew for Nayeon-unnie. What should I do, how can I fix it?" the girl complained loudly, not caring whether they heard her or not.
She was upset, upset and depressed. She needed to throw out all the negative energy, which she did now. For all 6 years, the members got used to such a sudden cry from Chaeyoung, so they developed hearing immunity.
It was because of this that last night, the members were waiting for someone to leave the room first and go to Chaeyoung. And when they heard the doors opening from Nayeon's bedroom, they freely rolled over on the other side and slept on.
Today, such luck was not foreseen, therefore, hearing complaints from the "animal", I had to crawl out of bed to go and console the upset child.
The doors from Momo and Mina's rooms opened first, followed by the doors of Sana and Jihyo, and the last of them reluctantly opened the doors of Tzuyu. Dahyun and Nayeon avoided this fate by going to the recording of a new show (they didn't have a day off today). Jeongyeon was sleeping so soundly that she couldn't hear anything.
So, the assembled delegation drowsily trudged to Chaeyoung's room to find an empty unmade bed, the girl herself was not there. They, moving their sleepy legs, stomped to the next “call”, which echoed from the living room:
- Come on, I beg you, do as I tell you, then we will rest, I promise!
Their living room was a mess of crayons, felt-tip pens, ruined crumpled paper, and a paint-stained "animal" Chaeyoung sitting in a circle, scolding her tassel as she led it around the office of the future sundress.
Jihyo softly coughed into her fist so as not to frighten and break the perfect line on the sketch. Chaeyoung perked up, showing her eyes red from lack of sleep, her nose smeared with red paint, a streak of blue paint on her neck, and a drop of purple paint on her strawberry pajamas.
Seeing the girls, Chaeyoung smiled weakly, wrinkled her nose to hold back uninvited tears, put the brush with a soft blue color to the side, spread her arms to the sides, showing her creations:
"Ta-dam, do you like it? I got inspiration at night and couldn't sleep thinking about it all the time, that's why I'm here."
"You mean you didn't go to bed?" Sana blinked, chasing away the remnants of sleep, carefully stepped over the scattered sketches, approached Chaeyoung and hugged her tightly. "You don’t have to stress yourself out like that. Didn't Nayeon-unnie tell you yesterday that you were allowed not to take your exams so early that you have a whole week" - she gently patted the girl's tousled hair.
"She said" she pursed her lips, sighing heavily, - "but after unnie left, I opened my eyes and could not sleep. Thoughts so swarming in my head, one idea replaced another, they did not let me sleep." Therefore, Chaeyoung waved at her work again, relaxing in Sana's arms, resting her head on her shoulder, covering her eyes.
"Very nice, Chaeng. You did a great job", Tzuyu praised her as she squatted over one of her friend’s creations, picking it up while examining her ankle-length summer dress. Above on the side was written "for Chewie " with a cute heart wink. "I like."
"Do you really like it?" Chaeyoung rejoiced, still hugging Sana, looked at her friend. "I thought about it for a long time, to be honest, for a long time I doubted how long to make it. If you like it that way, then I won't change anything."
“There is no need to change anything, Chaeyoung,” Tzuyu assured her, already imagining this dress on herself. The rest of the girls also began to look at other Chaeyeon's work with curiosity, each of them finding their own outfit for the upcoming TTT.
“I just have a few tweaks to Dahyun-unnie’s jumpsuit and Nayoung-unnie’s sundress, and I’ll be done.” Satisfied that each of her friends was praising her, Chaeyoung smiled tiredly as she sat on the couch, twirling her tassel.
"If everything works out for you, then you scream all the time that it doesn’t work out?" Mina asked her, holding her sketch of a light skirt and long-sleeved off-the-shoulder blouse in her hands.
"I'm trying to draw this line, you see, here is the outline of Nayeon-unnie's waist, and here her thigh begins. I want to show it so that it is not so sharp and not too fitted. I see Nayeon-unnie airy, like a cheerful butterfly flying across a meadow with flowers", sharing her idea with her friends with an admiring voice, Chaeyoung was already all inspired, imagining what expression the older unni would have when she put on this sundress.
“Chaeyoung, you talk like a girl in love, I will be jealous,” Momo drawled in a teasing voice, imagining the described “butterfly” in the face of Nayoung-unni.
"To whom will you be jealous, Momoring? Chaeyeon to Nayeon-unnie or vice versa?" Jihyo , making everyone laugh except for the blushing Momo."Joke. But I like it, and I want to quickly see what Nabong -unnie will be like", the leader said, looking around at herself and her friends, after which she noticed what time it was. "We need to change and start thinking about breakfast. And you" - pointed to the half-asleep Chaeyoung, "instantly sleep, you need a sound and healthy sleep."
“But I also want to have breakfast with you,” Chaeyoung whined, folding her hands pleadingly in front of her face. “It’s been so long since we all had breakfast together, please Jihyo unnie.”
“We’ll wake you up when Dubu and Nayeon-onni come and sit down to have breakfast together,” she exchanged glances with everyone, “you don’t mind, girls?”
"No",  they answered in chorus, starting to help collect scattered sketches of outfits and throw unnecessary ones into the wastebasket.
"Great, you heard Chaeng, march to bed!" Chaeyoung joyfully saluted the leader, not forgetting to thank everyone for their help, ran (dragged) to her room, covered herself with a blanket and fell into a sound sleep.
A little later, she was gently shaken on the shoulder, waking her up, Chaeyoung opened her right eye to see her best friend “ bro ” Dahyun’s small pale hand in front of her.
“Dahyun-unnie, you’re back.” Stretching in bed, stretching out her tiny body, smiled warmly at the girl.
"Yes, Nayeon-unnie and I just got back. Jihyo told us everything, so she came here to wake you up", affectionately patted the bangs hanging over her eyes. "You still have red eyes, but at least the bags under the eyes are not so visible. Thank you for trying, but no need to overwork yourself, bro", scolded her gently, helping to remove the blanket from her, tuck it in while Chaeyoung stretched beside her in her comical tiger outfit. “No outfit is worth ruining your health, Chaeng.” She smiled softly, then nudged her in the back to leave the room. "Go wash up, breakfast is almost ready."
“Sorry bro , I just wanted the perfect outfit for you and everyone.” She paused in the gap between her room and the hallway, Chaeyoung said.
"Any of your outfits is already a gift for all of us, Chaeyoung. We will love and wear it with pleasure, because we know who did it for us,” Dahyun said simply, walking out of the room with her, escorting her to the bathroom. “Come on, hurry up, our unnies are very hungry.” And, Nayeon-unnie threatened that if you don't hurry, she will eat your portion", she added, and laughed when she heard the characteristic cry of the "little animal" in protest:
"Nayeon-unnie don't eat my portion, I'm right now!!!"
“Hurry up, Chaengie,” hearing a scream, Nayeon answered in the same loud voice, forcing the girls sitting at the table to cover their ears. “The food is so delicious and I’m so hungry, plus I’m a little mad at you!”
"No, unnie, don't be mad, I really, really closed my eyes and started to fall asleep when you left!" Quickly rinsing after brushing her teeth, almost choking on her water, Chaeyoung pleaded as she ran out of the bathroom and hurried to the kitchen. Seeing the older friend's disappointed expression, she almost knelt down.
“Nayeon-unnie, please.” Stomach growling continued her plea instead of her, causing her to become embarrassed and receive a loud burst of laughter from the others.
“Hahaha, sit down at the table, little animal, no one was going to eat your portion.” Wiping tears of laughter from her eyes, Nayeon smiled broadly as she sat down next to Mina opposite Chaeyoung, teasingly watching her as she sat down at the table. “But, if your cry wakes me up again in the middle of the night ..." - she threatened her, becoming serious in a second, the “ little animal” trembled with fear, nodded his head, swearing to everyone that she would sleep that night. “Okay, but just in case, you’ve been warned,” Nayeon said, returning to her normal cheerful mood again, helping Mina load a plate with all sorts of dishes, receiving a cute and grateful smile from the girl in return.
The next night, all 8 members woke up with a loud frightened squeal, Nayeon-unnie's voice slipped through the screech. Therefore, there was no sleep, everyone immediately jumped out of bed, without putting on slippers, ran as fast as they could to Nayeon’s room, opened the doors, the light and saw an older unni trembling with fear with bulging eyes, looking somewhere in the corner. They turned their heads in that direction with fear and almost had a heart attack, not from fear, but from relief, seeing a beautiful butterfly with a delicate blue pattern flying there.
- Take her away! Kill her! I'm so afraid! Please! - Nayeon sobbed as she snuggled up to the maknae line, clinging even more to the pajamas of the tiger cub, who was looking at the butterfly in admiration, still vividly imagining how beautiful her unnie would be in that sundress, with the same color as the pattern of that butterfly.
