"You need to tell us everything!" Tessa gasped. "How is Rory?? Her insta has been blowing up after Karina wore her design last week. I was drooling."

"Me too, she's so talented!" Alaska gushed. "I wish I could crochet."

"Come sit!" Robin patted the spot next to her on the bed, making JJ scoot over a bit.

"I'm so sorry," you started, not wanting to dampen the mood entirely, but needing to get it off your chest. "I'm sorry for being such a terrible friend and leaving you right when something bad happened. I should've stayed. You're all always there for me, and I wasn't there for you. I said hurtful things, and I'm sorry. You all mean the world to me, and I hope you know that."

"Hua!" Riley tutted. "Of course we know that."

"You're like, the most caring person in the whole world," Mya added.

"We all would've died out in the wilderness without you!" Robin laughed. "Or at least, I would have."

"We literally love you so much!" Alaska declared, pulling you in for another hug.

The rest of the girls followed, until you were stuck in the center of a bestie embrace. Everyone was laughing, Mya was potentially tearing up. You really had missed them.

When they finally let go, you smiled, eyes watering with gratitude. "I'm working on believing that. But... I do have one question for you all. You probably know that I didn't just come back to apologize to you guys for my shitty behavior. Where is Changbin?"

What was once an excited, lively atmosphere froze in an instant. All seven girls glanced back and forth at one another, silently arguing with each other over who had to speak. When even Tessa averted her eyes from yours, you knew something was really wrong.

Somehow, JJ must have lost the stare-down, because she turned to face you, grave look on her gorgeous face.

"Hua..." she paused, swallowing slowly. You could feel your heart get stuck in your throat as you waited. What the hell had happened?

"Hua, Changbin left."

laska's note —
well, hua has returned from her friends house, only to find out that changbin has... left, too?? did he already go back home, without a warning?? and hua was ready to come back and apologize to him! what is with their timing? 😭 at least she's back with her girls, and she was able to say what was on her mind. we love seeing her character development, even though we really, want to see what she has to say to changbin! what do you think will happen, now that he's gone? is it all over for them, for real this time?
