Hyunju wakes up in the middle of the night, seeing no younger Lee sleeping beside her. She usually wakes up earlier than Erin but this time, Erin is still up, Sem finds her looking at up the big night sky.

“What are you doing? Shouldn’t you be sleeping already?” Sem asks while rubbing one of her eyes. “We’re going to leave soon”

“I can’t sleep. I’m thinking too much—I’m counting something on the stars” the young one confesses.

“Wishing upon constellations again?” she murmurs. “You’re wishing on something already lightyears dead, do you know?”

Erin totally gets her unni’s scientific point but she will not let any pessimisms of the old one knock her defense down. She still believes that wish upon the stars will come true. It may take time but it will come true. She somehow feels that her destiny will change soon.

“What are you wishing this time?”

“Recognition”

“Please” Sem hisses one more time. “We’re popular enough to be called not popular. Now sleep.” she pulls Erin back inside the lodge because only a few hours from that time will they leave the place.

 

 

It is the last day of vacation and the Two Lees have to bid good-bye to the nice place where they temporarily stayed. There is this old lady, who has announced to them that she is the care taker of the lodge, who wants them to do something before they finally leave. They are taken at the back of the small building where they find a large wall comprised of sticky papers.

“Write your wish” the old lady tells them.

“Please,” Sem bites her lip. Hyemin prods her unni's arm lightly, telling her to just do it. Nothing is so wrong of writing wish especially when it is addressed anonymously, but Hyunju gets easily disappointed knowing how wish never comes true. She has clearly differentiated a wish from a hope, though deep within her heart, there's still a tinge of belief that a wish does come true.

"What did you write there?" It is Erin's time to ask the older one, but Sem says she didn't write anything but a smiley. The young believer feels as if she has just cheated on; Sem can't hold her laughter, she just bursts out seeing her partner's face of remorse. If only Erin knows how her unni wishes the young's ones silent screams to come true, then she will be proud having someone like Sem, but she has just seen Hyunju's alter ego yet, she hasn't met that Hyunju who once was as optimistic as she does.

"Good job girls," their manager tells them in a conference with the two Lees. "We are totally getting positive feedbacks with those teaser pictures showed just the morning we have it released."

Erin is oh so happy; Sem can't hide the fact that she is impressed because they are finally gaining attention after a long while ever since they debuted, she cannot believe it at first. The young one initiates a low five with her unni and Sem doesn't scruple, she is also glad not to ruin the ambience.

"The music video is set to release this Wednesday, so until that day you are free. Thursday is the start of your comeback. It will be good if you practice wi

Apparently, this appears to be a parody of the real life scenarios.

Chapter 5: ugh.....they're reading fiction of Nine Muses...xD probly...
kinda creepily ironic how their current situation suddenly mirrors the fanfic update...and how they're getting attention after the cryptic parts about their take on wishes. i know this is supposed to be a comedy but my heart reaches for the two Lees...maybe sth about underdogs stories/reality situations that make me too emotionally attached. oh well....curious where this is heading next...
Thanks for the cool update n keep it up~!

Chapter 2: this is sounding great so far...not-so-successful-idols/underdogs story is just about my taste...n there's two of my probly four fav members...yeah!
and i love the contrast between the girls yet how they mesh well together...well, it's early to decide that, but yeah...they do seem to be on the same page though the interpretation is most probly different (omygosh what am i babbling)
Sam's character sounds awesome..the calm cool level headed type..
n especially love the part Erin convincing the manager that they're not aegyo, nuh'uh she really doesn't have one...
looking forward to this. being unsuccessful is never a light matter in reality but i love when it's portrayed in lighthearted way like this, sometimes that brings out more of the real sadness/pain than when presented in angsty way. idk what i'm blabbering again.
that being said, i still need to find time to continue read the sibling fic ><.
curious about the writer now!
Thanks for sharing the story n keep it up~!
