"I can't believe so many people are thirsting over us," Ren sighed, resting on the spacious couch in Stupefy's lounge room. The others quickly mooched on the snacks, feeling exhausted after reading so many thirsty posts in one day.
Staff mbers who wanted to rest in the lounge quickly walked away when they saw the handso bunch. They were imdiately intimidated by their vibe, most of them feeling giddy as they glimpsed at the idol group.
"I can," Zeth said, eating so gummy bears. June noticed this and took one from his hands. "I'm not saying this to boost your egos or sothing like that, but we're a pretty good-looking bunch. I'm not just talking about . You guys are attractive, too. Sotis, I even get startled when I look at us in the dance practice mirror."
"If it ca from Zeth, then I'm believing it," Akira smiled. "I needed that extra boost after Amira rejected again."
"You're still after her?" Jaeyong asked. "It's been more than three months!"
"What can I say? I like that we have similar nas," Akira responded.
Jay suddenly appeared from behind the couch to glare at the mbers.
"Goodness!" Akira exclaid, placing his hand over his heart. "What are you doing there?"
"How do you think I get my information?" Jay asked.
June frowned in confusion. "So, you just chill behind a couch?"
"No," Jay deadpanned. "I hide behind a couch—there's a difference."
"Sotis, people don't willingly give out information because they know I work for Azure now. In the end, I have to resort to hiding behind couches so I can hear the latest news!"
Ren tilted his head to the side in confusion. "Is that legal?"
Jay shrugged. "I don't know. I don't use the information with ill intent. I just use it to my advantage sotis."
"That's definitely the sa thing," Akira whispered to Jaeyong, but the entire group was still able to hear it.
Jay narrowed his eyes at Akira.
"You, young man," he said, pointing at him. "Don't act like I didn't just hear that you're talking to Amira."
Akira scratched the back of his head.
"What's wrong with that? They're just talking," Zeth defended. "Besides, it's not like Amira would give Akira a chance. From my view, she really likes June."
June lifted his head in surprise, not believing Zeth's words.
anwhile, Akira stood, offended by Zeth's insinuation.
"Hey, she replies to my texts...after three business days," he muttered the last ti. "But she still does!"
"Wait, you're right," Jay said, finally calming down. "It probably won't cause an issue."
Akira crossed his arms in front of his chest. Sohow, not being reprimanded by Jay made him feel worse than being scolded by him.
"However," Jay said, pointing at Zeth this ti. "I'm still warning you guys. I know that you've been talking to Kiera for quite a while now."
Zeth pursed his lips and couldn't refute this ti around.
"We're being careful," Zeth sighed. "We're not even official yet."
Jisung watched what was going on with wide, sparkly eyes. This seed like a real-life K-drama! What a wonderful sight!
"And I'm advising you not to," Jay sighed. "You know how fans would react once they find out—especially since you're still a rookie."
Zeth looked down at the ground.
"Is it a sin for idols to love?" he quietly asked, sounding vulnerable.
The others turned silent while Jay suddenly felt bad.
"No," Jay said. "It's not. It never wasn't."
"However, people are cruel—that's the truth of life. This job is very harsh because it's limiting. People feel like they have the right to direct how you live just because they support you. I hope you knew that before working in this industry."
Zeth pursed his lips.
"Yeah, I get it," he said, trying to shake his sadness away.
Jay then turned to the other mbers, but they raised their hands in surrender.
"I've never had a girlfriend before!" Jisung defended himself.
Sehun, too, shook his head. "I was too busy worrying over my debut that my long-term girlfriend left in the process."
Jay then looked at Casper to warn him but quickly halted when he realized that the guy only loved his cat and June.
"You don't have to worry about ," Ren raised his hands in surrender. "I think you should be more wary of June over there," he said.
June lifted his head when he heard his na. He wasn't really paying attention since it concerned sothing that never even crossed his mind.
"You," Jay whispered. "I have a feeling I need to be wary of you."
"What do you an?" June asked, confused.
"You're so secretive," Jay remarked. "Moreover, you talk to different girls on your phone. You also disappear from ti to ti without informing ."
"Different girls?" June asked. "Do you an Hana? Jia? Mimi? Esther? Mari? Ann? or ntor Jihyun?"
"Dang, that was a flex right there," Akira said.
"You're talking with these many girls all at the sa ti?" Jay asked with wide eyes.
"Yeah," June nonchalantly said. "I ask them for advice sotis."
"And you don't feel anything for these people?" Jay asked.
"No," June said with resolution.
"We're friends."
"We're all just good friends."
"I salute you, bro!" Akira said, standing and bowing at June's direction.

After resting for a while, the mbers of EVE finally decided to leave Stupefy's studio. They were gracefully provided so rch and other gifts before they went ho, so it lifted their moods despite the exhausting filming process.
Jisung and June were currently in the restroom, peeing side by side, when sobody suddenly entered the room.
June didn't bother glancing at the newcor and rely focused on his own urinal.
On the other hand, the trickling sound from Jisung's urinal stopped as he looked at the person who had just co in.
Jisung gulped loudly as the hooded man walked to where the two of them were.
"J—June," Jisung shakily said, feeling that they were dood.
June finally raised his head to et the eyes of the man who was right beside him already.
He frowned and quickly zipped up his pants, facing the familiar person.
"Haruki," he muttered.
"What are you doing here?"
Haruki finally removed his hood and continued looking at June with cold eyes. He paused for a while before finally speaking.
"My brother wants to et you."
