Chapter 37 – The Countdown to Graduation

The announcement appeared on every hallway screen.

“Graduation Ceremony: Two Weeks Away.”

⸻

The entire school changed overnight.

Suddenly…

Everyone was talking about memories.

Photos.

Last performances.

Future plans.

⸻

Jennie stood in the hallway staring at the announcement.

Her blonde hair was styled in loose waves, and she wore a black oversized jacket, a white top, baggy jeans, and her favorite boots.

For once…

She wasn’t making a joke.

⸻

Felix noticed.

His black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his varsity jacket, black shirt, athletic pants, and sneakers.

“You okay?”

Jennie looked at him.

“Yeah.”

A pause.

“Just weird.”

“What?”

“Everything.”

⸻

Felix looked at the graduation poster.

“I know.”

“It feels like yesterday we couldn’t stand each other.”

Jennie smirked.

“You couldn’t stand me.”

Felix laughed.

“You roasted me every five seconds.”

“You deserved it.”

⸻

Han suddenly appeared.

His messy brown hair was covered by a graduation cap he wasn’t supposed to be wearing yet.

“I heard emotional conversations.”

Everyone groaned.

⸻

Lisa walked over laughing.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was tied back, and she wore a casual black jacket with cargo pants.

“Why are you wearing that?”

Han looked proud.

“I’m preparing.”

“For what?”

“My future as the best graduate.”

“We haven’t graduated yet.”

“Details.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

Her lavender hair fell over her shoulders, and she wore a soft sweater and jeans.

“He’s been practicing his graduation speech.”

Jisoo looked concerned.

Her red hair was tied neatly, and she wore a cream sweater with black pants.

“How long is it?”

Han looked away.

“…Forty minutes.”

Everyone:

“No.”

⸻

Hyunjin arrived dramatically.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore a black sweater with layered necklaces.

“Graduation is the end of one era…”

Everyone stared.

“And the beginning of another.”

Han nodded.

“Exactly.”

Jennie whispered to Felix:

“They are both dramatic.”

Felix whispered back:

“Extremely.”

⸻

Later that day…

The group practiced for the ceremony.

⸻

Jennie was helping organize the music.

Felix was helping with the sports awards.

Han was somehow distracting everyone.

⸻

“Han.”

“What?”

“Why are you spinning in the graduation chair?”

“Testing durability.”

“Why?”

“In case I become too successful.”

⸻

Jennie shook her head.

“You are impossible.”

Han smiled.

“Thank you.”

⸻

After practice…

Jennie and Felix stayed behind.

The empty auditorium was quiet.

Rows of chairs filled the room.

The stage lights were on.

⸻

Felix looked around.

“Can’t believe we’re almost done.”

Jennie nodded.

“Yeah.”

⸻

He smiled.

“You know…”

“What?”

“If we met on the first day again…”

“I would still roast you.”

“I know.”

“And you would still annoy me.”

“I know.”

⸻

A small smile appeared on Jennie’s face.

“But…”

Felix looked at her.

“But?”

She looked away.

“…I’m glad we met.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

“Me too.”

⸻

A moment passed.

Then…

Jennie pointed at his outfit.

“Your graduation suit better not look weird.”

Felix blinked.

“That was the moment you chose to roast me?”

“Of course.”

He laughed.

“Never change.”

⸻

The auditorium lights turned off.

They walked out together.

Graduation was coming.

A new chapter was beginning.

But one thing was guaranteed…

Even with diplomas…

New futures…

And everything changing…

Jennie and Felix would still find a way to annoy each other.
CHAPTER: “STRAY KIDS / END OF REHEARSAL DAY”

⸻

The studio lights dimmed slowly as the rehearsal finally wrapped up.

Music faded out. The echo of beats still lingered in the wooden floor, like it didn’t want to leave yet.

Water bottles were scattered. Towels draped over shoulders. Sneakers squeaked lightly as everyone shifted out of performance mode.

⸻

Bang Chan stood near the control panel, checking the final notes on the session. His expression was calm but focused, already thinking ahead to the next schedule.

“Good work today,” he said simply.

⸻

Lee Know stretched lightly near the mirror, adjusting his jacket.

“Could’ve been cleaner on the second run,” he added, half-joking.

⸻

Changbin wiped sweat from his forehead, grinning.

“Still better than yesterday.”

⸻

Hyunjin leaned against the wall, hair slightly damp, catching his breath.

“It’s getting there.”

⸻

Han was scrolling through his notes, already humming a melody.

“I think we should adjust the bridge again.”

⸻

Felix sat on the floor, smiling softly as he tied his shoes.

“Energy felt good though.”

⸻

Seungmin picked up his water bottle, glancing at everyone.

“We’re getting too chaotic in the chorus.”

⸻

I.N stood slightly apart, hoodie loose, dark hair falling over his forehead. He nodded quietly as he listened to the group talk.

“It’s improving,” he said softly. “We just need one more clean run.”

⸻

Stray Kids naturally drifted together as they always did—voices overlapping, ideas bouncing, teasing mixed with focus.

Bang Chan clapped once.

“Alright. Wrap it up. Rest tonight. We go again tomorrow.”

⸻

Groans, laughs, agreement.

⸻

Felix stood up.

“I’m starving.”

⸻

Changbin immediately pointed.

“You’re always starving.”

⸻

Hyunjin smiled.

“That’s his talent.”

⸻

Han laughed.

“It’s consistent at least.”

⸻

Seungmin shook his head.

“Let’s just go.”

⸻

Lee Know adjusted his bag.

“Finally.”

⸻

I.N checked his phone as they started heading out.

A message from Lisa still sat at the top.

“Done for today?”

He smiled slightly and replied:

“Just finished. Heading home.”

⸻

Bang Chan glanced over.

“Someone waiting?”

⸻

I.N didn’t look up.

“Yeah.”

⸻

Chan nodded knowingly.

“Good.”

⸻

⸻

The group stepped out into the night together.

Cool air. City lights. Another day completed.

Stray Kids moved like one unit even off stage—laughter returning as they walked, tired but satisfied.

⸻

And behind them—

the studio doors closed.

Not an ending.

Just a pause before the next beginning.

⸻

End of Chapter.
CHAPTER: “ANNOUNCEMENT DAY / THE TOUR RETURNS”
⸻

The morning started like any other—

until it didn’t.

⸻

BLACKPINK were gathered in the living room.

Not for rehearsal.

Not for casual planning.

But for something bigger.

⸻

Jisoo stood first, holding a printed schedule in both hands. Her long dark hair was softly styled, and she wore a calm ivory blouse with tailored trousers.

Her expression was steady—but there was excitement underneath it.

⸻

Jennie leaned forward immediately.

“Don’t tell me…”

⸻

Jisoo nodded.

“It’s official.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

Rosé covered her mouth slightly, blonde hair falling over her shoulders as she smiled.

“…We’re going on tour?”

⸻

Jisoo smiled back.

“Yes.”

⸻

The room shifted instantly.

⸻

Jennie stood up.

“International?”

⸻

“International,” Jisoo confirmed.

⸻

Lisa hadn’t spoken yet.

⸻

Lisa sat on the edge of the sofa, staring at the schedule in Jisoo’s hand.

Her brown hair was tied loosely, casual home clothes replacing stage outfits for now.

Her expression slowly changed—

from surprise…

to recognition…

to something softer.

⸻

“…It’s been a while,” she said quietly.

⸻

Jennie pointed at her.

“That tone means you’re already thinking about choreography.”

⸻

Lisa blinked.

“…No.”

Pause.

“…Maybe.”

⸻

Rosé laughed softly.

“That’s a yes.”

⸻

⸻

Jisoo sat down beside them.

“This tour isn’t just performances,” she said gently. “It’s a full journey again.”

⸻

Jennie smiled.

“So basically… chaos with a schedule.”

⸻

“Exactly,” Jisoo replied.

⸻

⸻

Lisa finally looked up fully.

Her eyes had changed slightly.

Not tired.

Not overwhelmed.

Focused again.

⸻

“…We’ll need to prepare everything,” she said.

⸻

Jennie grinned.

“There she is.”

⸻

Rosé nodded.

“I’ve missed that energy.”

⸻

⸻

From the hallway, small footsteps paused.

Noah and Ari stood there, listening.

⸻

Ari tilted her head slightly.

“…Tour means you’ll be gone a lot.”

⸻

Lisa turned toward them.

“…Yeah.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

Noah crossed his arms.

“So it’s going to be just us at home more.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“That sounded suspiciously like a complaint.”

⸻

Noah shrugged.

“I’m observing.”

⸻

⸻

Lisa stood up and walked toward them.

Kneeling slightly to their level.

“…We’ll still be here,” she said. “Just busy.”

⸻

Ari nodded slowly.

“I get it.”

⸻

But her voice was thoughtful.

Like she understood both sides of “busy” now.

⸻

⸻

Jennie clapped once.

“Okay. Tour mindset starts today.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“I’m excited.”

⸻

Jisoo nodded calmly.

“Then let’s prepare properly.”

⸻

Lisa stood again.

Her focus fully back now.

“…Let’s do it right.”

⸻

⸻

And just like that—

the house shifted again.

From everyday life…

to something larger.

⸻

Because tours didn’t just move cities.

They changed time.

And everyone inside that house was about to feel it again.

Chapter 3 – Detention… Together?

The next morning, the school was already loud.

Everyone was talking about the same thing.

Jennie and Felix.

The school’s coolest DJ and its basketball star had officially become the school’s funniest rivalry.

⸻

Jennie walked through the hallway with her long black hair falling smoothly over her shoulders, styled with soft curtain bangs like her famous “Ice Cream” and “How You Like That” looks. She wore an oversized charcoal hoodie, loose black cargo pants with silver chains, and black-and-white high-top sneakers. Her silver headphones rested around her neck, ready for whenever inspiration hit.

She was the school’s legendary DJ.

And also the person most likely to destroy someone’s confidence with one sentence.

⸻

Felix entered from the gym hallway, carrying his basketball.

His soft black hair was slightly messy from practice, falling naturally over his forehead. He wore a black-and-red varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, relaxed black athletic pants, and clean white basketball sneakers.

He was the captain of the basketball team.

Popular.

Talented.

And still confused why Jennie didn’t think he was impressive.

⸻

Walking beside Felix was Han.

Han’s soft brown hair was slightly messy, with a few strands sticking up like he had rushed out of bed. His expressive eyes always gave away when he was about to make a joke. He wore an oversized dark green hoodie layered under a denim jacket, relaxed black jeans, and comfortable white sneakers. His backpack hung from one shoulder, usually filled with random snacks, notebooks, and things nobody understood why he carried.

Han was the school’s unofficial comedian.

He loved drama.

Especially when the drama involved Jennie and Felix arguing.

⸻

Near the music room, Rosé adjusted her headphones.

Her long lavender hair fell in soft waves down her back. She wore an oversized lavender cardigan over a white T-shirt, ripped light-blue jeans, and chunky white boots. Her style was relaxed but artistic, matching her love for music.

She smiled when she saw Jennie.

“This is going to be interesting.”

⸻

Lisa appeared beside her with a mischievous grin.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face perfectly. She wore an oversized black bomber jacket, a graphic T-shirt, baggy cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

Lisa loved chaos.

And Jennie and Felix provided plenty.

“I give them five minutes before they fight.”

Rosé looked at her.

“Five?”

Lisa nodded.

“Okay. Three.”

⸻

Jisoo walked toward class carrying her books.

Her long dark red hair was neatly styled, shining under the hallway lights. She wore a cream knit sweater, black pleated skirt with black tights, and polished ankle boots. A small necklace and simple earrings completed her elegant look.

She sighed.

“I already know today will be exhausting.”

⸻

Leaning against a locker was Hyunjin.

His long blond hair was perfectly styled, making him look like he belonged in a fashion magazine. He wore an oversized cream sweater, black wide-leg trousers, layered silver necklaces, and clean designer sneakers.

He watched the hallway dramatically.

“The energy today…”

Everyone stared at him.

“What?”

Hyunjin shrugged.

“It feels like the beginning of a legendary rivalry.”

Han nodded.

“He’s not wrong.”

⸻

Then the bell rang.

History class.

Everyone sat down.

Mr. Kim walked in carrying a stack of papers.

“Today, you will begin your group projects.”

The entire class groaned.

“Partners have already been chosen.”

Jennie immediately looked suspicious.

Felix looked nervous.

Mr. Kim smiled.

“Jennie and Felix.”

Silence.

“No.”

They both said it at the same time.

The class exploded.

Han slammed his notebook down.

“THEY AGREED ON SOMETHING!”

Lisa clapped.

“Historic moment.”

⸻

After class, Felix walked over.

“So we have to work together.”

Jennie looked up.

“Unfortunately.”

“You make it sound painful.”

“It is.”

Felix crossed his arms.

“You’re impossible.”

Jennie smiled.

“And you’re predictable.”

“How?”

“Basketball. Practice. Basketball. More basketball.”

Felix pointed at her.

“You literally carry headphones everywhere.”

“Because I make music.”

“And I play basketball.”

“Exactly.”

Felix frowned.

“What does that mean?”

“It means I create something people remember.”

Han gasped.

“OH.”

Rosé covered her mouth trying not to laugh.

Felix shook his head.

“You’re lucky you’re funny.”

Jennie smiled.

“I know.”

⸻

After school, they met in the library.

Felix opened the project instructions.

“We should actually work.”

Jennie nodded.

“Finally. A smart idea.”

Felix smiled.

“Was that a compliment?”

“No.”

“I knew it.”

⸻

Ten minutes later…

Felix dropped his pencil.

Jennie looked at him.

“Already struggling?”

“I dropped a pencil.”

“Exactly.”

Han whispered from another table,

“She turned dropping a pencil into an insult.”

Lisa nodded.

“That’s talent.”

⸻

Then Felix accidentally knocked over his water bottle.

It rolled into Jennie’s backpack.

She opened it.

Everyone waited.

She pulled out…

A rubber chicken.

Felix stared.

“Why?”

Jennie looked serious.

“Emergency purposes.”

“What emergency requires a rubber chicken?”

“Any emergency.”

Han laughed so hard he almost fell out of his chair.

Jisoo shook her head.

“I don’t even want to know.”

Hyunjin smiled.

“Perfect. The rivalry has a mascot.”

Felix laughed.

And Jennie tried not to.

But for a second…

She smiled.

Only a second.

Nobody noticed.

Except Felix.
Chapter 13 – The Class Where Everyone Noticed

Monday morning.

School.

The place where everyone pretended they were focused…

But really?

Everyone was watching everyone else.

Especially Jennie and Felix.

⸻

Jennie walked into class.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore an oversized black hoodie, baggy cargo pants with silver chains, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones hanging around her neck.

She sat down at her desk.

Then immediately noticed something.

Felix was sitting two seats away.

⸻

Felix looked up.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and white basketball sneakers.

They stared at each other.

One second.

Two seconds.

Then both looked away.

⸻

Han noticed immediately.

His soft brown hair was messy, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

He leaned toward Lisa.

“Something is wrong.”

Lisa smiled.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“Something is definitely wrong.”

⸻

Rosé sat behind them.

Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders. She wore an oversized lavender cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“They’re acting normal.”

Jisoo looked up.

Her long dark red hair was neatly styled, and she wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“Which means they’re not normal.”

⸻

The teacher walked in.

“Good morning, class.”

Everyone sat down.

“Today we will be doing partner work.”

The entire class immediately became interested.

Because everyone knew…

Partner work meant chaos.

⸻

The teacher looked at the list.

“Jennie and Felix.”

Silence.

The entire room turned.

Jennie slowly looked at Felix.

Felix slowly looked at Jennie.

“No.”

“Agreed.”

The teacher looked confused.

“You haven’t even started.”

⸻

Han whispered.

“This is going to be amazing.”

Lisa smiled.

“Or a disaster.”

“Both.”

⸻

They moved their desks together.

Felix looked at the assignment.

“Okay. Let’s just finish this.”

Jennie nodded.

“Finally, something we agree on.”

Felix smiled.

“Don’t get emotional.”

Jennie looked at him.

“You’re still annoying.”

“There she is.”

⸻

They started working.

For five minutes…

Everything was peaceful.

Too peaceful.

Then Felix wrote an answer.

Jennie looked at it.

“That is wrong.”

Felix looked offended.

“No, it’s not.”

“It is.”

“How do you know?”

“Because I read.”

The whole group gasped.

Han covered his mouth.

“She attacked his intelligence.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

“Okay, DJ girl.”

Jennie looked up.

“What?”

“You think because you can mix songs, you can solve everything?”

Jennie leaned closer.

“Better than you solving anything with a basketball.”

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Even Felix laughed.

Which surprised Jennie.

Usually he would fight back immediately.

Instead…

He just smiled.

⸻

The teacher walked by.

“Are you two arguing or working?”

Jennie and Felix answered together.

“Working.”

The teacher looked at their paper.

Then looked at them.

“Interesting way of working.”

⸻

During break, everyone surrounded them.

Han pointed.

“You two are different.”

Jennie frowned.

“How?”

“You actually enjoy arguing.”

Felix shrugged.

“We always argued.”

“Yes,” Lisa said.

“But now you smile while doing it.”

Jennie immediately looked away.

“No, I don’t.”

Felix smiled.

“Yes, you do.”

She turned.

“You are not helping.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

“I think the funniest part is that you both still think nobody notices.”

Jisoo nodded.

“Everyone notices.”

Hyunjin dramatically placed a hand over his heart.

“The enemies-to-friends transformation…”

Han sighed.

“It’s literally just homework.”

⸻

The bell rang.

Everyone returned to their seats.

Jennie packed her bag.

Felix looked over.

“Hey.”

“What?”

“Good job today.”

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“Was that another compliment?”

“Maybe.”

She smiled slightly.

“You’re getting weird.”

Felix laughed.

“And you’re getting nicer.”

Jennie pointed at him.

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

And as they walked out of class…

Everyone knew one thing.

Jennie and Felix were still the same.

Still competitive.

Still annoying.

Still roasting each other.

But now…

There was something else there.

Something neither of them wanted to admit yet.

Chapter 29 – Battle of the DJs

Friday night.

The biggest student DJ competition of the year.

The prize?

A trophy.

Bragging rights.

And a chance to perform at the city’s annual youth music festival.

⸻

The competition was being held at one of the city’s biggest music clubs.

Since it was a school-sponsored event for student performers, there were teachers, security, and families in attendance. The dance floor was packed, the lights flashed across the room, and a huge stage stood at the center with an impressive DJ booth.

The atmosphere was electric.

⸻

Jennie stepped backstage.

Her blonde hair was styled in loose waves with a few silver clips catching the lights. She wore a black cropped leather jacket over a silver top, baggy black cargo pants, fingerless gloves, and black combat boots.

She looked calm.

At least on the outside.

⸻

Felix found her adjusting her headphones.

His black hair was neatly styled, and he wore a black varsity jacket over a fitted black T-shirt, dark athletic pants, and white sneakers.

“Nervous?”

Jennie didn’t even look up.

“No.”

“Liar.”

“I’m professionally nervous.”

Felix laughed.

“I’ll allow that.”

⸻

Han suddenly burst through the backstage curtain.

His messy brown hair looked even messier than usual. He wore a green hoodie under a denim jacket with black jeans.

“I HAVE NEWS!”

Jennie sighed.

“Is it good news?”

“No.”

“Then I don’t want it.”

⸻

Lisa walked in behind him.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was perfectly curled. She wore a black jacket, silver cargo pants, and platform boots.

“The audience is huge.”

Rosé smiled.

Her lavender hair shimmered under the stage lights. She wore a lavender jacket, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“They’re already cheering.”

⸻

Jisoo adjusted Jennie’s jacket.

Her red hair was tied into a sleek ponytail, and she wore a cream blazer, black pants, and ankle boots.

“You’ve practiced for this.”

“You’ve got it.”

⸻

Hyunjin looked around dramatically.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore a black designer-style jacket with layered necklaces.

“The energy…”

Han interrupted.

“Can you stop narrating life for five minutes?”

⸻

An announcer stepped onto the stage.

“Ladies and gentlemen…”

“Welcome to the Battle of the DJs!”

The crowd erupted.

Music blasted through the speakers.

Lights swept across the room.

⸻

Contestants took turns performing.

Each one had ten minutes.

Each one received huge cheers.

Jennie watched quietly.

Felix stood beside her.

“You ready?”

She nodded once.

“As ready as I’ll ever be.”

⸻

“And now…”

“Our final contestant…”

“JENNIE!”

The entire club cheered.

⸻

Jennie walked onto the stage.

The lights dimmed.

She placed her headphones on.

Closed her eyes.

Pressed play.

⸻

The first beat hit.

The crowd exploded.

Jennie mixed songs effortlessly, building the energy with every transition.

The dance floor filled in seconds.

Even the judges leaned forward.

⸻

Backstage…

Han’s mouth dropped open.

“Okay…”

“I knew she was good.”

“I didn’t know she was THAT good.”

Lisa smiled proudly.

“Told you.”

⸻

Felix couldn’t stop smiling.

He folded his arms.

“She’s incredible.”

Rosé looked at him.

“You’ve got the biggest smile in the room.”

Felix immediately looked away.

“I do not.”

“You absolutely do.”

⸻

Jennie’s final transition hit.

The lights flashed.

The crowd clapped in rhythm.

By the end of her set…

The entire club was cheering her name.

“JENNIE!”

“JENNIE!”

“JENNIE!”

⸻

She walked backstage, trying to stay cool.

“So…”

Han ran over.

“So?!”

“You nearly blew the roof off this place!”

Jennie laughed.

“Relax.”

“I will not relax!”

⸻

Felix walked up.

“You were amazing.”

Jennie smiled.

“You’ve said that before.”

“I’ll probably say it again.”

She nudged his shoulder.

“Careful.”

“Why?”

“You keep giving me compliments.”

He grinned.

“I’m just telling the truth.”

⸻

The announcer returned to the stage.

“The judges have made their decision.”

The room became silent.

“In third place…”

Cheers echoed.

“In second place…”

More applause.

Jennie squeezed her hands together.

Felix noticed.

Without saying anything…

He gently gave her hand a reassuring squeeze.

She looked at him.

He simply smiled.

⸻

“And this year’s Battle of the DJs champion is…”

A dramatic pause.

“…JENNIE!”

The entire club erupted.

Han jumped so high he nearly knocked over a chair.

Lisa screamed.

Rosé hugged Jisoo.

Hyunjin dramatically fell to one knee.

“I KNEW IT!”

⸻

Jennie stood frozen.

“Me?”

The announcer laughed.

“Yes, you.”

Felix gently nudged her.

“Go.”

“You won.”

⸻

Jennie walked onto the stage.

The trophy was placed in her hands.

She looked out at the cheering crowd.

Then down at her friends.

Then at Felix.

He gave her a thumbs-up.

She smiled.

A real one.

The biggest smile anyone had seen from her.

⸻

Han yelled from the front row,

“Speech!”

Jennie picked up the microphone.

“I only have one thing to say…”

The crowd waited.

She looked directly at Han.

“…You’re still annoying.”

The whole club burst into laughter.

Han placed a hand over his heart.

“I’ve never been so honored.”

Felix laughed harder than anyone else.

And somehow…

Winning the competition felt amazing.

But celebrating it with the people who had become her family…

Made it even better.
Chapter 15 – The School Festival Disaster

The rumor was supposed to disappear.

That was the plan.

Unfortunately…

The school had other plans.

⸻

The next morning, the hallway was covered with posters.

ANNUAL SCHOOL FESTIVAL – THIS FRIDAY

Everyone was excited.

Everyone except Jennie.

⸻

Jennie walked through the hallway with her usual cool attitude.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore a black cropped jacket over a graphic shirt, baggy cargo pants, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones around her neck.

She looked at the festival posters.

“No.”

⸻

Lisa looked confused.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black bomber jacket, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“No what?”

“No festival.”

Lisa blinked.

“It’s one of the biggest events of the year.”

“Exactly.”

“So?”

“So everyone will be annoying.”

⸻

Han walked over.

His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

“Correction.”

Everyone looked at him.

“Everyone will be annoying except me.”

Jennie stared.

“Especially you.”

Han looked offended.

“Wow.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders, and she wore an oversized cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“You know you’ll have fun.”

“No.”

“You always say no.”

“And I’m always right.”

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

Her long dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“You’re going to participate.”

Jennie looked shocked.

“Why does everyone think that?”

“Because we know you.”

⸻

Then Felix walked in.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his black varsity jacket, white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and basketball sneakers.

He looked at the poster.

“Festival?”

Jennie immediately pointed.

“No.”

Felix smiled.

“You didn’t even let me speak.”

“I know what you’re going to say.”

“What?”

“You’re going to say basketball.”

Felix paused.

“…I was.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Later that day, the teacher announced the festival assignments.

“Every group will prepare an activity.”

The class became excited.

Then the teacher read:

“Jennie and Felix will lead the main stage performance.”

Silence.

⸻

Jennie:

“No.”

Felix:

“Wait, what?”

⸻

Han immediately started laughing.

“Oh, this is perfect.”

Lisa smiled.

“The universe is forcing them.”

⸻

Felix looked at Jennie.

“So…”

“No.”

“You don’t even know what I was going to say.”

“I know.”

“You’re impossible.”

“And you’re too confident.”

⸻

The problem was…

They were actually a great team.

Felix handled the crowd.

Jennie handled the music.

Together…

They made the entire performance idea better than anyone expected.

⸻

After school, they stayed behind to practice.

The gym was empty.

Jennie connected her DJ equipment.

Felix practiced his part.

For once…

They weren’t fighting.

⸻

Felix looked over.

“You know…”

“What?”

“You’re really good at this.”

Jennie looked suspicious.

“Are you complimenting me?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Because it’s true.”

She looked away.

“That’s weird.”

“You don’t like compliments?”

“I don’t know what to do with them.”

Felix laughed.

“That explains a lot.”

⸻

Jennie smiled.

Then immediately pointed at him.

“Don’t get comfortable.”

“There she is.”

⸻

From outside the gym door…

Han, Lisa, Rosé, Jisoo, and Hyunjin were watching.

Han whispered:

“They’re literally acting like a couple.”

Lisa smiled.

“But they’ll deny it.”

Hyunjin placed a hand over his heart.

“The slow burn continues.”

Jisoo sighed.

“It’s a school festival, not a drama.”

⸻

Inside…

Jennie and Felix continued practicing.

Still teasing.

Still competing.

Still pretending they didn’t care.

But everyone else knew…

The festival wasn’t going to be the only thing happening that week.
A man goes to an village he looks like an viking and camera angle from behind

Chapter 20 – The Worst Kept Secret

The next morning…

Jennie had one mission.

Act normal.

That was it.

No smiling.

No looking at Felix.

No acting different.

Simple.

Except…

It was impossible.

⸻

Jennie walked into the dorm kitchen.

Her blonde hair was styled perfectly, and she wore a black oversized hoodie, baggy cargo pants, and black sneakers.

She grabbed a drink.

Everyone stared.

⸻

She stopped.

“What?”

Nobody answered.

Jennie looked around.

“Why is everyone looking at me?”

⸻

Han slowly put down his spoon.

His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

“Interesting.”

Jennie narrowed her eyes.

“What does that mean?”

“Nothing.”

“Han.”

“Absolutely nothing.”

⸻

Lisa walked in.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was perfectly styled. She wore a black bomber jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

She looked between Jennie and Felix.

Then smiled.

“Oh.”

Jennie immediately pointed.

“No.”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Your face did.”

⸻

Felix entered.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket, white shirt, athletic pants, and basketball sneakers.

The second Jennie saw him…

She looked away.

The second Felix saw her…

He smiled.

⸻

Everyone noticed.

Immediately.

⸻

Rosé walked in laughing.

Her lavender hair fell over her oversized cardigan. She wore ripped jeans and white boots.

“Oh no.”

“What?”

“They’re doing the thing.”

Han nodded.

“The thing.”

Jennie looked confused.

“What thing?”

Jisoo smiled.

Her dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“The thing where you pretend you don’t like each other.”

⸻

Jennie froze.

“We don’t.”

Felix answered at the same time.

“We don’t.”

Everyone stared.

⸻

Hyunjin entered dramatically.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore an oversized sweater, black pants, layered necklaces, and clean sneakers.

“Perfect synchronization.”

Han sighed.

“Please stop making everything sound like a drama.”

⸻

At school…

It was even worse.

Because apparently…

The whole friend group had eyes.

⸻

In class, Jennie was trying to focus.

The teacher was talking.

The board was full of notes.

Everything was normal.

Until Felix passed her a note.

She opened it.

“You okay?”

Jennie looked over.

Felix smiled.

She wrote back.

“Why wouldn’t I be?”

A few seconds later, another note came back.

“Because you’re avoiding looking at me.”

Jennie stared.

Then wrote:

“Because you’re distracting.”

Felix smiled.

“Good distracting?”

Jennie paused.

Then wrote:

“Don’t push it.”

⸻

Han, sitting behind them, saw the notes.

He leaned toward Lisa.

“They’re literally flirting through homework.”

Lisa smiled.

“Should we tell them?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“This is too funny.”

⸻

After class, Felix caught up with Jennie.

“You know everyone knows something is different.”

Jennie sighed.

“They know everything.”

“Probably.”

“I hate that.”

Felix smiled.

“No you don’t.”

Jennie looked at him.

“You’re annoying.”

“But?”

She tried not to smile.

“But…”

She looked away.

“You’re less annoying now.”

⸻

Felix laughed.

“That might be the nicest thing you’ve ever said.”

“Don’t get used to it.”

“Too late.”

⸻

From across the hallway…

Han watched them.

“Do you think they’ll ever admit it?”

Lisa shook her head.

“No.”

Rosé smiled.

“But they don’t need to.”

Jisoo nodded.

“They already know.”

⸻

And that was the funniest part.

Jennie and Felix spent months fighting.

Roasting each other.

Trying to prove they were nothing alike.

But somehow…

The person who annoyed them the most…

Became the person they looked for first.
⸻
CHAPTER: “SMALL TABLE, BIG SILENCE (JUST THEM)”
⸻

The rest of the restaurant faded into background noise.

Soft clinking dishes. Distant conversations. Warm lighting that made everything feel slower than it actually was.

But at this corner table—

the world had narrowed.

⸻

Lisa sat with Noah and Ari on either side of her.

And across from them—

I.N.

⸻

Lisa’s brown hair was slightly messy now, loose strands falling near her cheeks as she leaned forward over the table. She had taken off her hoodie earlier, leaving a simple black fitted top with cargo pants—comfortable, relaxed, fully out of “airport mode” and into something quieter.

Her expression had softened completely.

Not performer.

Not public figure.

Just mom who finally stopped moving.

⸻

Noah sat on her right, swinging his legs under the chair, hoodie slightly oversized, eyes locked on the food like it was a mission.

Ari sat on her left, pastel jacket unzipped now, hair slightly loosened, leaning into Lisa’s side every few minutes like she needed contact to stay anchored.

⸻

Lisa gently nudged Ari’s plate closer.

“Eat that first.”

⸻

Ari frowned.

“But I want that one.”

⸻

Lisa shook her head.

“That one is sugar pretending to be happiness.”

⸻

Noah immediately looked up.

“I like sugar happiness.”

⸻

Lisa pointed at him without looking.

“You already had sugar happiness this morning.”

⸻

Noah paused.

“…True.”

⸻

Across the table, I.N watched quietly.

His hair was softly styled, slightly parted from travel, and he wore a simple neutral jacket over a plain shirt with relaxed pants—calm, understated, not trying to stand out, just present.

He didn’t interrupt.

He just observed the rhythm of them.

⸻

Ari suddenly turned toward him.

“Are you quiet because you’re shy?”

⸻

I.N blinked.

“…A little.”

⸻

Noah leaned forward.

“Or are you quiet because Mom talks a lot?”

⸻

Lisa immediately looked at Noah.

“That was unnecessary.”

⸻

I.N smiled faintly.

“It’s… not inaccurate.”

⸻

Lisa sighed deeply.

“Traitor table.”

⸻

Ari giggled into her drink.

⸻

The food arrived in small plates, warm steam rising.

Lisa immediately took a small bite from each kid’s plate without warning.

⸻

Noah stared.

“That’s unfair.”

⸻

Lisa nodded.

“Yes.”

⸻

Ari copied her.

“You’re just checking.”

⸻

Lisa nodded again.

“Yes.”

⸻

Noah leaned back.

“This system is corrupt.”

⸻

Lisa pointed at him again.

“You’re still eating.”

⸻

That shut him up instantly.

⸻

I.N finally spoke softly.

“You do this often?”

⸻

Lisa didn’t look up.

“Daily survival protocol.”

⸻

Ari tugged her sleeve.

“Mom, you’re funny today.”

⸻

Lisa paused for a fraction of a second.

Then softened.

“I always am.”

⸻

Noah raised an eyebrow.

“No you’re not.”

⸻

Lisa leaned toward him slightly.

“I am when I’m not tired.”

⸻

I.N’s gaze softened a little.

“So… today is a good day.”

⸻

Lisa nodded once.

“Today is a finished day.”

⸻

Ari leaned against her again.

“I like finished days.”

⸻

Lisa gently rested her hand on Ari’s head.

“Me too.”

⸻

A quiet moment followed.

Not empty.

Just full in a different way.

⸻

Noah finally asked:

“Are you happy now?”

⸻

Lisa didn’t answer immediately.

She looked at both kids.

Then at the table.

Then across at I.N.

⸻

Her voice came softer than before.

“…Yes.”

⸻

Noah nodded like that was the only acceptable answer.

⸻

Ari smiled.

“Good.”

⸻

I.N exhaled quietly, almost smiling.

“That’s important.”

⸻

Lisa leaned back slightly in her chair, brown hair falling naturally around her face, no longer styled, no longer controlled.

Just her.

⸻

“I don’t need loud days,” she said softly.

“Just days that end like this.”

⸻

Noah tilted his head.

“With food?”

⸻

Lisa nodded.

“With food.”

⸻

Ari added:

“And us?”

⸻

Lisa didn’t hesitate.

“Always you.”

⸻

A small silence settled.

Warm. Stable. Real.

⸻

And for the first time all day—

there was nothing to fix, nothing to plan, nothing to perform.

⸻

Just a mother, two children, and someone quietly sitting across from them…

sharing a moment that didn’t need an audience to matter.
Chapter 31 – The Night Everyone Lost Their Minds

The dorm was chaos.

Absolute chaos.

And the reason?

Jennie still couldn’t decide what to wear.

⸻

She stood in front of her closet.

Her blonde hair was curled perfectly, but her outfit choices were covering half her bed.

“Why is this harder than performing in front of hundreds of people?”

⸻

The door suddenly opened.

Lisa walked in.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was styled perfectly, and she wore a black jacket with a sparkly top, cargo pants, and boots.

She looked around.

“Wow.”

“What?”

“You have created a clothing disaster.”

Jennie crossed her arms.

“I need help.”

Lisa smiled.

“I knew this day would come.”

⸻

Jennie held up two outfits.

“Which one?”

Lisa stared seriously.

“Hmm.”

A pause.

“Felix would like the first one.”

Jennie froze.

“How do you know?”

Lisa shrugged.

“Because Felix is a boy.”

“That explains nothing.”

⸻

Lisa picked up another outfit.

“Actually, wear this one.”

“Why?”

“Because it says mysterious DJ.”

Jennie nodded.

“Okay.”

“Wait.”

Lisa grabbed another dress.

“Actually this one says powerful.”

Jennie blinked.

“So which one?”

Lisa thought.

“Both.”

“Lisa.”

“Okay, okay. The dress.”

⸻

After another twenty minutes…

Jennie finally decided.

She wore a sleek black dress with silver details, a cropped jacket, and black boots. Her blonde hair fell in soft waves around her face, and her DJ-style accessories completed the look.

She looked confident.

Different.

⸻

When she walked downstairs…

Everyone stopped.

⸻

Han’s mouth dropped open.

His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore a denim jacket over a hoodie with black jeans.

“Okay.”

“What?”

“I forgot how to speak.”

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“That might be the first peaceful moment you’ve ever created.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

Her lavender hair was styled softly, and she wore a pastel jacket with a black outfit.

“You look amazing.”

Jisoo nodded.

Her red hair was tied back elegantly, and she wore a stylish black outfit with boots.

“Definitely.”

⸻

Hyunjin dramatically looked up.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore a black jacket with layered accessories.

“The main character has arrived.”

Han sighed.

“Please stop.”

⸻

Then Felix walked downstairs.

His black hair was styled neatly, and he wore a black button-up shirt with a jacket, dark jeans, and sneakers.

He stopped.

Completely stopped.

⸻

Jennie noticed.

“What?”

Felix blinked.

“Nothing.”

“Felix.”

He looked away.

“You just…”

A pause.

“You look really good.”

⸻

Everyone immediately reacted.

⸻

Han pointed.

“HE FAILED.”

Felix looked confused.

“What?”

“You tried to hide the blush.”

“I wasn’t blushing.”

Lisa laughed.

“You absolutely were.”

⸻

Jennie smiled.

“Are you okay, basketball boy?”

Felix recovered.

“Yeah.”

“Because your face says otherwise.”

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Later…

The group arrived at the dance event.

Music filled the room.

Lights flashed.

Everyone was having the best time.

⸻

Jennie stepped onto the dance floor.

And Felix forgot everything else.

⸻

He had seen Jennie confident before.

On stage.

During roast battles.

During competitions.

But this was different.

She was just happy.

Laughing.

Dancing.

Not caring what anyone thought.

⸻

Felix smiled.

Han noticed.

“You are staring.”

Felix looked away.

“I am not.”

“You are.”

“I was just watching.”

“Exactly.”

⸻

Felix looked back.

And somehow…

He knew.

He was completely falling for her.

⸻

Meanwhile…

The rest of the group became a disaster.

⸻

Jisoo was trying to teach everyone a dance move.

“I am the instructor.”

Han looked confused.

“You don’t know the dance.”

“I know the spirit of the dance.”

⸻

Hyunjin joined.

“The movement represents freedom.”

Han stared.

“It’s literally just jumping.”

⸻

Rosé laughed so hard she had to sit down.

Lisa recorded everything.

“This is going to be used against all of you forever.”

⸻

Jennie walked over.

“What is happening?”

Han pointed.

“Art.”

Jennie looked at everyone.

“This is the weirdest thing I’ve ever seen.”

Felix smiled.

“And you love it.”

She paused.

“…Maybe.”

⸻

At the end of the night…

Everyone was exhausted.

They arrived back at the dorm laughing.

⸻

Felix helped Jennie walk to her room because she was tired from dancing all night.

“Careful.”

“I’m fine.”

“You almost walked into the wall.”

“The wall moved.”

Felix laughed.

“The wall moved?”

“Yes.”

⸻

He opened her bedroom door.

“There.”

Jennie looked at him.

Then suddenly pointed.

“You.”

“What?”

“You are officially my assistant.”

Felix blinked.

“Excuse me?”

“Carry my trophy tomorrow.”

“No.”

“Wow.”

She shook her head dramatically.

“After all our friendship?”

Felix laughed.

“You are impossible.”

⸻

Before leaving, Felix placed her trophy safely on her desk.

Then he smiled.

“Goodnight, Jennie.”

She looked at him.

For once…

No roast.

No comeback.

Just a smile.

“Goodnight, Felix.”

⸻

He turned to leave.

Then Jennie called:

“Felix.”

He looked back.

“Yeah?”

She smirked.

“Your dancing was terrible.”

He laughed.

“There she is.”

⸻

And as he walked away smiling…

Felix realized something.

The girl who used to drive him crazy…

Was now the person he never wanted to stop being around.
Got it — shifting tone to celebratory, relaxed post–business success, still manhwa-style.

⸻
CHAPTER: “SUCCESS IN SOFT LIGHT”
⸻

The moment the suite door clicked shut, the atmosphere changed.

Not into silence.

Into relief.

⸻

BLACKPINK had finally stepped out of schedules, meetings, and structured voices.

And into their own space again.

⸻

The hotel suite was warm and spacious—floor-to-ceiling windows showing a glowing night skyline, soft golden lamps already turned on, and a quiet living area arranged like it was waiting for something personal to happen.

A bottle of sparkling water sat chilled on the counter.

Someone had already sent fruit platters.

A handwritten note from the management team rested near the table:

“Congratulations on a successful business trip.”

⸻

Jisoo was the first to exhale fully.

She loosened the strap of her bag and set the folder down without perfect alignment this time—just enough to signal she was off duty.

Her white tailored blouse had its sleeves rolled slightly now, no longer strict. Her dark wavy hair slipped free from its pins as she walked further inside, finally letting it fall naturally around her shoulders.

She looked around once.

Then smiled.

Small. Real.

“We did well.”

⸻

Jennie dropped onto the couch first like gravity had permission again.

Her beige blazer came off in one smooth motion, revealing the fitted black top underneath. She kicked off her shoes gently, exhaling as if releasing an entire day through one breath.

Her straight dark hair fell over her shoulders as she leaned back, phone forgotten for the first time in hours.

“Finally,” she said, half-smiling. “A room that doesn’t want anything from us.”

⸻

Rosé walked to the window first.

Blonde hair catching the skyline glow like soft gold threads. She slipped off her gray blazer, leaving her cream blouse slightly relaxed at the collar. She held onto the railing of the window for a second, just looking out.

Then she smiled.

“We finished everything.”

Her voice was lighter than it had been all day.

Like music returning after paperwork.

⸻

Lisa kicked off her sneakers near the entrance without even placing them neatly.

Lisa

Her brown hair was loosened fully now, strands falling freely around her face. She tugged off her cropped jacket and tossed it onto the couch without ceremony, rolling her shoulders like she was shaking off invisible choreography.

Then she grinned.

“We survived meetings without falling asleep. That’s a win.”

⸻

Jennie laughed first.

Short. Real.

Then Rosé followed.

Then even Jisoo let out a soft, rare laugh.

⸻

It wasn’t loud like a stage.

It didn’t need to be.

⸻

Jisoo walked to the table, picking up the fruit platter.

“This is probably celebration food.”

She looked at it.

“…or reward food.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“It’s definitely ‘we didn’t burn the strategy deck’ food.”

⸻

Rosé sat on the arm of the couch, legs tucked slightly, blonde hair spilling over her shoulder.

“I think we should call it ‘we did everything and didn’t argue too much’ food.”

⸻

Lisa pointed at her.

“That’s inaccurate. We did argue.”

⸻

Jennie nodded.

“But productively.”

⸻

Jisoo added calmly.

“With structure.”

⸻

A pause.

Then all four looked at each other.

And burst into a second round of laughter.

⸻

This one lingered longer.

⸻

The room finally felt like theirs.

Not a meeting room.

Not a hallway.

Not a schedule.

Just a shared space where success could sit down with them.

⸻

Rosé opened the balcony door slightly.

Cool air drifted in.

“Should we go out there?”

⸻

Jennie groaned lightly.

“No. I refuse to be philosophical on a balcony tonight.”

⸻

Lisa immediately stood.

“I’m going.”

⸻

Jisoo followed without hesitation.

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“…I guess I’m going too.”

⸻

Jennie stared at them.

Then sighed dramatically.

“Fine.”

⸻

Five seconds later, they were all outside.

City lights stretching endlessly in front of them like a quiet reward.

⸻

No stage.

No audience.

No conference tables.

Just four women leaning against a balcony railing, letting the night finally feel like it belonged to them.

⸻

Jisoo spoke softly.

“We finished it well.”

⸻

Jennie nodded.

“We did.”

⸻

Rosé closed her eyes for a moment, blonde hair moving slightly in the wind.

“We should do this more often.”

⸻

Lisa smirked.

“Business trips?”

⸻

Rosé opened her eyes.

“Winning them.”

⸻

Silence followed.

But it wasn’t empty.

It was satisfied.

⸻

Somewhere behind them, the room stayed warm.

Somewhere ahead of them, the city kept glowing.

And for the first time that day—

nothing needed to be planned.

Only felt.
Book 2 – Chapter 36: Operation Jisoo — Hyunjin’s Dramatic Disaster

After Han and Felix completed their missions…

Everyone thought Hyunjin would be the easiest.

⸻

They were completely wrong.

⸻

The Final Emergency Meeting

⸻

The dorm room was quiet.

Too quiet.

⸻

Felix sat on the couch.

Han was eating snacks.

⸻

Then…

The door opened dramatically.

⸻

Hyunjin walked in.

⸻

Slowly.

⸻

Very slowly.

⸻

Wearing sunglasses.

⸻

Everyone stared.

⸻

Han lowered his snack.

“What are you doing?”

⸻

Hyunjin removed the sunglasses.

⸻

“Preparing.”

⸻

“For what?”

⸻

“My greatest moment.”

⸻

Silence.

⸻

Felix blinked.

⸻

“You are asking Jisoo to the dance.”

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

“Not proposing.”

⸻

Hyunjin looked offended.

⸻

“I know.”

⸻

“Because you are acting like you’re proposing.”

⸻

Hyunjin ignored him.

⸻

“I need the perfect words.”

⸻

Han laughed.

⸻

“You mean a dramatic speech.”

⸻

“Exactly.”

⸻

Felix sighed.

⸻

“Oh no.”

⸻

⸻

The Speech Practice

⸻

Hyunjin stood in front of the mirror.

⸻

“Jisoo…”

⸻

He paused.

⸻

“When I first saw you—”

⸻

Han immediately stopped him.

⸻

“No.”

⸻

Hyunjin turned.

⸻

“What?”

⸻

“Too much.”

⸻

“But it’s meaningful.”

⸻

“It’s a dance invitation, not a movie ending.”

⸻

Hyunjin frowned.

⸻

“You’re ruining my art.”

⸻

Felix laughed.

⸻

“Your art is terrifying.”

⸻

Hyunjin tried again.

⸻

“Jisoo, you are the light that—”

⸻

“Stop.”

⸻

Felix covered his face.

⸻

“You can’t say ‘the light’ before asking someone to dance.”

⸻

“Why?”

⸻

“Because she might think you joined a poetry club.”

⸻

Han nodded.

⸻

“Or a drama competition.”

⸻

Hyunjin sighed.

⸻

“You two have no romance.”

⸻

⸻

Operation Begins

⸻

The next day…

Hyunjin found Jisoo in the garden.

⸻

Jisoo was sitting peacefully.

Her long blonde hair with lavender-pink tips moved softly in the breeze.

She wore a cream cardigan, a simple dress, and sneakers.

⸻

Hyunjin walked toward her.

⸻

Slowly.

⸻

Jisoo looked up.

⸻

“Why are you walking like you’re entering a stage?”

⸻

Hyunjin stopped.

⸻

“Do I do that?”

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

“Okay.”

⸻

He sat down.

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

⸻

“Are you okay?”

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

“You look nervous.”

⸻

“I am not.”

⸻

“You are.”

⸻

Hyunjin sighed.

⸻

“Why is everyone so good at noticing things?”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

⸻

The Actual Question

⸻

Hyunjin took a breath.

⸻

“Jisoo.”

⸻

She looked at him.

⸻

“I wanted to ask…”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

Han’s voice appeared in his head:

“Don’t make it a movie.”

⸻

Felix’s voice:

“Don’t say ‘light.’”

⸻

Hyunjin nodded.

⸻

“Would you go to the dance with me?”

⸻

Simple.

⸻

Normal.

⸻

Jisoo blinked.

⸻

Then smiled.

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

Hyunjin froze.

⸻

“Wait.”

⸻

“What?”

⸻

“That’s it?”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

“What did you expect?”

⸻

“I don’t know.”

⸻

“You looked like you were about to give a speech.”

⸻

Hyunjin looked away.

⸻

“I prepared one.”

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

⸻

“Of course you did.”

⸻

⸻

Back at the Dorm

⸻

Hyunjin walked in.

⸻

Felix and Han looked up.

⸻

“Well?”

⸻

Hyunjin stood silently.

⸻

Then…

⸻

He dramatically fell onto the couch.

⸻

“I succeeded.”

⸻

Han laughed.

⸻

“Did you survive?”

⸻

“Barely.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

⸻

“Did you say the speech?”

⸻

Hyunjin looked offended.

⸻

“No.”

⸻

“Good.”

⸻

“Why?”

⸻

“Because it would have taken an hour.”

⸻

Hyunjin crossed his arms.

⸻

“It was beautiful.”

⸻

Han nodded.

⸻

“I’m sure it was.”

⸻

“You’re mocking me.”

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Three missions.

⸻

Three successes.

⸻

Han and Rosé.

Felix and Jennie.

Hyunjin and Jisoo.

⸻

Now only one thing remained…

⸻

The college dance.

⸻

And everyone knew…

With Jennie as the DJ…

It was going to be unforgettable.
The stage lights hit before the crowd even fully settled.

A soft hum.

Then a roar.

And suddenly—

the world was loud again.

⸻

BLACKPINK stood in formation, not as individuals anymore—but as a single pulse the stadium already knew by heart.

⸻

Jisoo stepped forward first, her presence steady like quiet light—soft pink in a world of black shadows, elegant and grounding.

⸻

Jennie followed with sharp confidence—black ink cutting through noise, controlled, powerful, impossible to ignore.

⸻

Rosé moved like emotion itself—blonde hair catching the light, a gentle pink glow stretched into sound, fragile and strong at the same time.

⸻

And Lisa took the center with precision—dark rhythm, black fire, movement that made silence feel like it was dancing too.

⸻

Pink.

Black.

Softness.

Power.

⸻

The crowd chanted their name like it was one heartbeat.

“BLACKPINK! BLACKPINK! BLACKPINK!”

⸻

Backstage screens flickered.

Cities passed.

Time blurred.

⸻

But on stage—

they were timeless.

⸻

Jisoo smiled into the crowd, voice steady as she spoke between songs.

“We missed you.”

The stadium answered like thunder.

⸻

Jennie smirked slightly.

“Let’s make this one unforgettable.”

⸻

Rosé closed her eyes for a second during a note—

and when she opened them, the entire arena felt softer.

⸻

Lisa spun into movement like the music
Kaito, 20 year old skinny guy who is  lift and carry enthusiast, asks if she can lift the kitchen table. Asuna tries and lifts it with her arms and then tries with her legs. Kaito becomes so nervous and gulps. Then she asks if she can lift the TV. She does that as well. Kaita is enjoying the sight. Asuna is giggling. Asuna is a 4'11 skinny girl with long black hair, 20 years old, and is wearing a long white dress with bare feet.
Book 3: Roast Rhythm & Rival Hearts — New Secrets

Chapter 4: Behind the Spotlight

Months had passed…

⸻

Life had changed completely.

⸻

They weren’t just college students anymore.

They were now living the dream they had always chased.

⸻

They were K-pop idols.

⸻

The New Chapter

⸻

Jennie stood backstage after a huge performance.

Her shoulder-length red hair was styled perfectly, with a bold stage outfit: a black leather jacket, sparkling accessories, and a powerful look that matched her savage DJ queen image.

On stage…

She was fearless.

⸻

Lisa had become known for her incredible dancing and stage presence.

Her long natural black hair flowed as she performed.

She wore a stylish black-and-white performance outfit with boots, looking confident and energetic.

⸻

Rosé had her own signature style.

Her shoulder-length rose-pink hair stood out under the stage lights.

She wore an elegant but edgy outfit, mixing her soft personality with her powerful performer side.

⸻

Jisoo looked graceful as always.

Her light brown hair framed her face beautifully.

She wore a classy stage outfit with elegant details that matched her calm confidence.

⸻

Together…

They were still the same four girls.

Just on a much bigger stage.

⸻

Across the Industry

⸻

Stray Kids were also living their dream.

⸻

Felix stood backstage after a performance.

His blonde hair with a red peekaboo streak underneath was styled perfectly.

He wore a dark stage outfit with silver details, looking completely different from the nervous boy who once practiced asking Jennie to a dance.

⸻

Han had his natural black hair styled casually.

He wore a comfortable but stylish outfit, bringing his funny and energetic personality everywhere.

⸻

Hyunjin had black hair with a silver streak, giving him a dramatic and unforgettable stage look.

⸻

I.N. had his bright orange hair, standing out wherever he went.

⸻

Everyone had grown.

⸻

Everyone had changed.

⸻

Except…

Some feelings were still unfinished.

⸻

Jennie’s Breaking Point

⸻

After the concert…

The crowd was still cheering outside.

Everyone was celebrating.

⸻

But Jennie quietly walked away.

⸻

Lisa noticed.

⸻

“Jennie?”

⸻

No answer.

⸻

Rosé followed her.

⸻

“Something’s wrong.”

⸻

Jisoo closed the dressing room door behind them.

⸻

Jennie stood in front of the mirror.

⸻

For years…

She had been the savage one.

The one who roasted everyone.

The one who acted like nothing could hurt her.

⸻

But tonight…

She couldn’t keep pretending.

⸻

Lisa stepped closer.

⸻

“Jennie.”

⸻

“You don’t have to act tough with us.”

⸻

Silence.

⸻

Then Jennie finally broke.

⸻

“I hate this.”

⸻

Rosé looked worried.

⸻

“What?”

⸻

Jennie sat down.

⸻

“I thought becoming an idol would fix everything.”

⸻

“I thought if I was busy enough…”

⸻

“If I was successful enough…”

⸻

“I wouldn’t think about the things I lost.”

⸻

Jisoo sat beside her.

⸻

“Felix.”

⸻

Jennie looked away.

⸻

She didn’t deny it.

⸻

“I moved on.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

“At least I tried to.”

⸻

Lisa hugged her.

⸻

“You don’t have to be okay every second.”

⸻

Jennie wiped her eyes.

⸻

“I hate crying.”

⸻

Rosé smiled softly.

⸻

“We know.”

⸻

“I hate that you guys are right.”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

“That is the most Jennie thing you’ve said today.”

⸻

A small smile appeared.

⸻

Just a little.

⸻

The Girls

⸻

Lisa squeezed her hand.

⸻

“No matter how famous we get…”

⸻

“We’re still us.”

⸻

Rosé nodded.

⸻

“The same girls who sat in a dorm room talking about the future.”

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

⸻

“And the same girls who survived Jennie’s insults.”

⸻

Jennie looked offended.

⸻

“I was not that bad.”

⸻

All three stared at her.

⸻

“Okay.”

⸻

“Maybe a little.”

⸻

They laughed.

⸻

Because behind the cameras…

Behind the music…

Behind the fame…

⸻

They were still best friends.

⸻

And Jennie finally remembered:

Even the strongest performers need a place where they can stop performing.

⸻

To Be Continued…
The airport exit doors slid open with a soft mechanical hiss.

Cool evening air spilled inside, mixing with the warm indoor lights for a brief moment of contrast—like two worlds touching before separating again.

Outside: waiting cars, muted city hum, fading daylight.
Inside: arrivals, reunions, footsteps, and softened laughter.

⸻

BLACKPINK moved together through the terminal like a quiet formation returning from work.

Each of them looked more human now than polished.

⸻

Jisoo walked slightly ahead, calm and composed.
Her dark hair was styled in soft natural waves, slightly loosened from travel, falling neatly around her shoulders. She wore a cream-white fitted knit top layered under a light beige trench coat, paired with straight black trousers and simple flats. Her look was minimal, elegant, and grounded—airport-ready but still unmistakably refined. Her bag hung neatly from one shoulder, posture steady as always.

⸻

Jennie followed beside her, phone in one hand but no longer focused on it.
Her dark hair was straight and sleek, parted cleanly in the middle, resting smoothly over her shoulders. She wore a black fitted top under an oversized charcoal blazer, paired with relaxed tailored trousers and clean sneakers—mixing structure with comfort. Her expression was relaxed but alert, eyes scanning the crowd once before softening.

⸻

Rosé walked slightly behind, blonde hair glowing under the terminal lights like soft golden thread.
It was loosely styled in gentle waves, slightly tousled from travel but still delicate. She wore a soft ivory blouse layered under a pale gray cardigan, with flowing wide-leg trousers and simple shoes. Her look felt airy and gentle, almost like she belonged more to music than to airports. She held a small tote bag close to her side, posture calm.

⸻

And then—

movement ahead.

⸻

A shift in energy.

⸻

Lisa appeared through the arrival gate.

Her brown hair was tied loosely into a low ponytail, slightly messy from travel, with soft strands framing her face. She wore a black oversized hoodie layered over a fitted tank top, paired with relaxed cargo pants and comfortable sneakers—practical, effortless, lived-in. A small travel bag hung from her shoulder as she stepped forward quickly, eyes already searching.

⸻

And then she saw them.

And everything softened.

⸻

Because running toward her were two small figures.

Noah and Ari.

⸻

Noah wore a soft casual hoodie with light joggers, his hair neatly cut but slightly tousled from movement, eyes bright with excitement as he ran forward.

Ari followed right behind in a pastel jacket and leggings, hair tied into a small neat style that bounced slightly as she ran, her expression bright and full of anticipation.

⸻

Lisa dropped her bag slightly without thinking.

Her face changed instantly.

From tired traveler—

to something much warmer.

⸻

She crouched just in time.

“Noah… Ari…”

⸻

Both children collided into her at once.

“Mom!!”

⸻

Lisa wrapped her arms around them tightly, closing her eyes for a moment.

Her voice softened completely.

“I missed you both so much.”

⸻

Behind them, a few steps back—

I.N stood watching quietly.

His hair was softly styled, slightly relaxed from travel, and he wore a neutral-toned jacket over a simple shirt with slim pants—clean, understated, comfortable. His posture was relaxed, hands in pockets, expression gentle as he observed the reunion without interrupting it.

⸻

A few steps further back—

BLACKPINK watched.

⸻

Jennie tilted her head slightly, arms loosely crossed.
Her sleek dark hair framed her face as she observed the moment, expression shifting into something knowingly amused. Her black blazer hung open now, showing her fitted top underneath.

⸻

Rosé smiled softly, blonde hair glowing under the airport lighting as she looked at Lisa with the kids. Her cardigan hung loosely off one shoulder now, posture gentle, eyes warm.

⸻

Jisoo stood calmly, dark wavy hair framing her composed expression. Her beige trench coat moved slightly as she shifted her weight, hands resting lightly on her bag strap, watching with quiet understanding.

⸻

Lisa slowly stood again, still holding Noah’s hand while Ari stayed close at her side.

She brushed a loose strand of brown hair away from her face, exhaling.

Then looked at BLACKPINK.

“…Don’t say anything.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“We didn’t say anything.”

⸻

Lisa narrowed her eyes.

“You were thinking loudly.”

⸻

Rosé laughed softly.

“We always are.”

⸻

Noah looked up at the group.

“Mom, who are they?”

⸻

Lisa glanced at them.

“My friends.”

A beat.

“…and occasional chaos.”

⸻

Ari tilted her head.

“Are they nice?”

⸻

Lisa paused.

Then nodded.

“Yes.”

Another pause.

“…mostly.”

⸻

Jennie placed a hand on her chest.

“Mostly?!”

⸻

Jisoo smiled faintly.

“That sounds accurate.”

⸻

Rosé leaned slightly toward the children.

“We’re very nice.”

⸻

Noah nodded seriously.

“Okay. That’s acceptable.”

⸻

Lisa sighed.

“I’m surrounded.”

⸻

Jennie smirked.

“Correct.”

⸻

As they all began walking toward the exit together, the group formed an unusual but natural formation:

business trip returns, childhood energy, and quiet family warmth all moving in the same direction.

⸻

Jennie glanced at Lisa.

“So… full-time mom mode?”

⸻

Lisa adjusted Ari gently on her side.

“It never turns off.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“That explains your schedule discipline.”

⸻

Lisa gave her a look.

“Don’t analyze my parenting.”

⸻

Jisoo spoke calmly.

“It’s efficient.”

⸻

Lisa sighed.

“…That’s not a compliment.”

⸻

Noah tugged her sleeve again.

“Food now?”

⸻

Lisa immediately nodded.

“Yes.”

Then turned toward BLACKPINK.

“And I choose the restaurant.”

⸻

Jennie paused.

“…Fine.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“Mom wins again.”

⸻

Jisoo added softly.

“As expected.”

⸻

Lisa smirked slightly, holding both kids’ hands as they walked.

“Good.”

⸻

And as they stepped out into the open air—

it wasn’t a return to fame.

Or business.

Or schedules.

⸻

It was simply a group of people walking forward together—

hair slightly undone, clothes relaxed, laughter waiting just ahead of them in the next moment.
Chapter 17 – The Festival Countdown

The school festival was only three days away.

And somehow…

Everything was becoming more chaotic.

⸻

The biggest problem?

Everyone had discovered Jennie’s new blonde hair.

And they were not letting it go.

⸻

Jennie walked through the school hallway.

Her blonde hair fell in soft waves around her face, looking completely different from her old black hair. She wore a black leather jacket over a graphic shirt, baggy cargo pants, black boots, and her silver headphones around her neck.

She was still Jennie.

Still confident.

Still impossible to embarrass.

At least…

That was what she thought.

⸻

“BLONDE JENNIE!”

Han shouted from across the hallway.

Everyone turned.

Jennie stopped walking.

Slowly…

She looked at him.

“Do you want to survive today?”

Han froze.

His messy brown hair stuck up, and he wore his oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

“I was just appreciating the new look.”

“You were yelling.”

“Appreciating loudly.”

⸻

Lisa laughed.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore her black bomber jacket, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“I think Han likes the new hair more than you do.”

Han nodded.

“It’s iconic.”

Jennie rolled her eyes.

“You all are dramatic.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

Her lavender hair fell over her oversized cardigan. She wore ripped jeans and white boots.

“You’re secretly happy everyone likes it.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No.”

“Your face says yes.”

Jennie immediately covered her expression.

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Then Felix walked in.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his black varsity jacket, white T-shirt, athletic pants, and basketball sneakers.

He stopped when he saw Jennie.

Not because he hadn’t seen the blonde hair before.

But because every time he saw it…

It surprised him.

⸻

Jennie noticed.

“What?”

Felix blinked.

“Nothing.”

“You stared.”

“I did not.”

“You did.”

Han whispered:

“He definitely did.”

⸻

Felix ignored him.

“It just looks different.”

Jennie crossed her arms.

“Is that good or bad?”

Felix thought.

“Good.”

A small smile appeared.

“Really good.”

⸻

The hallway immediately exploded.

Lisa covered her mouth.

Rosé laughed.

Han looked shocked.

“He said it again.”

⸻

Jennie looked at Felix.

“You know…”

“What?”

“You’re getting suspiciously nice.”

Felix smiled.

“Maybe you’re getting used to it.”

She opened her mouth.

Then closed it.

Because she had no comeback.

⸻

Later that day…

The festival team met in the gym.

The stage lights were being tested.

The music equipment was being set up.

And Jennie and Felix were in charge.

⸻

Felix practiced his basketball performance.

Jennie worked on the music.

The two of them somehow worked perfectly together.

Which annoyed them both.

⸻

Felix looked over.

“You’re good at this.”

Jennie glanced up.

“At what?”

“Making everything come together.”

She shrugged.

“It’s what I do.”

“No.”

He shook his head.

“It’s more than that.”

Jennie paused.

Because Felix wasn’t joking.

⸻

Before she could respond…

The speakers suddenly blasted music.

Everyone jumped.

Han covered his ears.

“JENNIE!”

“What?”

“You almost destroyed my hearing.”

“You’re welcome.”

⸻

Felix laughed.

And Jennie smiled.

⸻

From across the gym…

Lisa watched them.

“They’re getting worse.”

Rosé nodded.

“Definitely.”

Jisoo smiled.

“But in a good way.”

Hyunjin placed a hand over his heart.

“The festival will reveal everything.”

Han sighed.

“It’s literally just a school event.”

⸻

But none of them knew…

The festival wasn’t just going to be about music.

Or basketball.

Or performances.

Because something was about to happen…

That would change the way everyone saw Jennie and Felix.
Chapter 11 – The Night Felix Saw The Real Jennie

It was finally night.

The city lights were glowing, the streets were busy, and for once…

Jennie wasn’t in the dorm arguing with Felix.

She was with Mina.

⸻

Jennie walked into the lounge and found Mina waiting.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore a black jacket over a fitted top, baggy cargo pants, and her favorite sneakers. Her silver headphones rested around her neck.

Mina smiled.

“You actually came.”

Jennie sat down.

“Don’t sound so surprised.”

“I am surprised.”

“Rude.”

“Accurate.”

Jennie rolled her eyes.

⸻

The night started normally.

They talked.

They laughed.

They caught up.

Mina ordered two giant colorful mocktails.

Jennie stared at hers.

“Why is it so big?”

Mina shrugged.

“You need something fun.”

“I have fun.”

Mina looked at her.

“You argued with Felix for twenty minutes yesterday about a pillow.”

Jennie paused.

“That pillow was important.”

Mina laughed.

⸻

As the night went on…

Jennie became less and less like the Jennie everyone knew.

The serious DJ.

The queen of roasting.

The girl who always had the perfect comeback.

Gone.

⸻

Mina stared as Jennie laughed at the menu.

“Why are you laughing?”

Jennie pointed.

“Look.”

“It’s a menu.”

“No.”

She held it closer.

“The salad has a personality.”

Mina blinked.

“…What?”

“It looks judgmental.”

Mina covered her face.

“Oh no.”

⸻

Five minutes later…

Jennie was trying to convince Mina that a tiny decoration on the table was “the world’s smallest DJ.”

Mina looked at it.

“It’s a candle.”

Jennie nodded seriously.

“Exactly.”

“How is that a DJ?”

“It has a stand.”

Mina burst out laughing.

⸻

Then suddenly…

Jennie got quiet.

Mina noticed.

The goofy smile disappeared.

“You okay?”

Jennie looked down.

“Yeah.”

But Mina knew her too well.

“Jennie.”

A pause.

“I just…”

Jennie looked at her drink.

“Everyone thinks I’m cold.”

Mina softened.

“Because you pretend you are.”

Jennie didn’t answer.

⸻

Mina sighed.

“Okay.”

She pulled out her phone.

“I’m calling someone.”

Jennie immediately looked up.

“No.”

Mina smiled.

“Yes.”

“No Felix.”

Mina raised an eyebrow.

“You said Felix before I did.”

Jennie froze.

“That doesn’t count.”

“It definitely counts.”

⸻

Mina searched her contacts.

Felix.

Call.

⸻

Back at the dorm…

Felix was sitting on the couch.

His soft black hair was messy, and he wore a black hoodie, gray sweatpants, and white sneakers.

Han was beside him eating snacks.

His soft brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized hoodie with black jeans.

Felix’s phone rang.

He looked down.

“Mina?”

He answered.

“Hey.”

Mina immediately said:

“Felix, emergency.”

Felix sat up.

“What happened?”

“Your roommate has been replaced.”

Felix blinked.

“What?”

“The Jennie I know has disappeared.”

Han leaned closer.

“What is happening?”

Mina continued.

“She laughed at a menu.”

Felix paused.

“…A menu?”

“Yes.”

A pause.

“She also complimented a candle.”

Han covered his mouth.

“That sounds impossible.”

“It happened.”

⸻

Twenty minutes later…

Felix arrived.

He found Jennie sitting with Mina.

The second she saw him…

Her eyes widened.

“Felix!”

He stopped.

“Hi?”

“You came.”

Mina smiled.

“I told you he would.”

Jennie looked at Felix.

“You actually came.”

Felix nodded.

“Of course.”

She stared at him.

“Why?”

Felix looked confused.

“Because you’re my roommate.”

Jennie looked away.

“That is a very boring answer.”

Felix smiled.

“You wanted a different one?”

She immediately shook her head.

“No.”

A pause.

“…Maybe.”

⸻

On the way back…

Jennie was completely different.

She walked slowly beside Felix.

Then suddenly stopped.

“Felix.”

“Yeah?”

“You know your hair is nice?”

Felix froze.

“What?”

“Don’t make it weird.”

“I’m not.”

“You look surprised.”

“Because you never compliment me.”

Jennie nodded.

“True.”

“Then why now?”

She thought.

“Because I’m honest today.”

Felix smiled.

“Interesting.”

⸻

A few steps later…

Jennie looked at the ground.

Her smile faded.

“Do you actually think I’m mean?”

Felix stopped walking.

“What?”

“Everyone thinks I’m cold.”

Her voice became quieter.

“I joke because it’s easier.”

Felix looked at her.

For once…

He didn’t tease her.

“You know…”

“What?”

“I don’t think you’re cold.”

Jennie looked up.

“You don’t?”

“No.”

“Then what do you think?”

Felix smiled slightly.

“I think you’re someone who cares too much and doesn’t want people to know.”

⸻

Jennie went quiet.

Then her eyes watered.

“I hate that you’re right.”

Felix looked surprised.

“Jennie…”

She wiped her face quickly.

“I’m not crying.”

“I didn’t say you were.”

“Good.”

A pause.

“…Because I’m definitely not.”

Felix smiled.

“Right.”

⸻

When they reached the dorm…

Everyone was waiting.

Lisa immediately looked shocked.

“Wait.”

“Is Jennie emotional?”

Rosé smiled softly.

“She’s just having a moment.”

Jisoo nodded.

“Let her.”

Hyunjin dramatically whispered:

“The walls have fallen.”

Han nodded.

“The roast queen has been defeated.”

Jennie looked up.

“I heard that.”

Han immediately stood straight.

“She’s back.”

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Before going into her room, Jennie stopped.

She looked at Felix.

“Thanks.”

Felix smiled.

“Anytime.”

Jennie nodded.

Then quietly added:

“But don’t tell anyone I was nice.”

Felix grinned.

“Your secret is safe.”

And for the first time…

Jennie wasn’t annoyed that Felix saw the real her.

She was glad he did.

⸻
CHAPTER: “SUCCESS IN SOFT LIGHT”
⸻

The moment the suite door clicked shut, the atmosphere changed.

Not into silence.

Into relief.

⸻

BLACKPINK had finally stepped out of schedules, meetings, and structured voices.

And into their own space again.

⸻

The hotel suite was warm and spacious—floor-to-ceiling windows showing a glowing night skyline, soft golden lamps already turned on, and a quiet living area arranged like it was waiting for something personal to happen.

A bottle of sparkling water sat chilled on the counter.

Someone had already sent fruit platters.

A handwritten note from the management team rested near the table:

“Congratulations on a successful business trip.”

⸻

Jisoo was the first to exhale fully.

She loosened the strap of her bag and set the folder down without perfect alignment this time—just enough to signal she was off duty.

Her white tailored blouse had its sleeves rolled slightly now, no longer strict. Her dark wavy hair slipped free from its pins as she walked further inside, finally letting it fall naturally around her shoulders.

She looked around once.

Then smiled.

Small. Real.

“We did well.”

⸻

Jennie dropped onto the couch first like gravity had permission again.

Her beige blazer came off in one smooth motion, revealing the fitted black top underneath. She kicked off her shoes gently, exhaling as if releasing an entire day through one breath.

Her straight dark hair fell over her shoulders as she leaned back, phone forgotten for the first time in hours.

“Finally,” she said, half-smiling. “A room that doesn’t want anything from us.”

⸻

Rosé walked to the window first.

Blonde hair catching the skyline glow like soft gold threads. She slipped off her gray blazer, leaving her cream blouse slightly relaxed at the collar. She held onto the railing of the window for a second, just looking out.

Then she smiled.

“We finished everything.”

Her voice was lighter than it had been all day.

Like music returning after paperwork.

⸻

Lisa kicked off her sneakers near the entrance without even placing them neatly.

Lisa

Her brown hair was loosened fully now, strands falling freely around her face. She tugged off her cropped jacket and tossed it onto the couch without ceremony, rolling her shoulders like she was shaking off invisible choreography.

Then she grinned.

“We survived meetings without falling asleep. That’s a win.”

⸻

Jennie laughed first.

Short. Real.

Then Rosé followed.

Then even Jisoo let out a soft, rare laugh.

⸻

It wasn’t loud like a stage.

It didn’t need to be.

⸻

Jisoo walked to the table, picking up the fruit platter.

“This is probably celebration food.”

She looked at it.

“…or reward food.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“It’s definitely ‘we didn’t burn the strategy deck’ food.”

⸻

Rosé sat on the arm of the couch, legs tucked slightly, blonde hair spilling over her shoulder.

“I think we should call it ‘we did everything and didn’t argue too much’ food.”

⸻

Lisa pointed at her.

“That’s inaccurate. We did argue.”

⸻

Jennie nodded.

“But productively.”

⸻

Jisoo added calmly.

“With structure.”

⸻

A pause.

Then all four looked at each other.

And burst into a second round of laughter.

⸻

This one lingered longer.

⸻

The room finally felt like theirs.

Not a meeting room.

Not a hallway.

Not a schedule.

Just a shared space where success could sit down with them.

⸻

Rosé opened the balcony door slightly.

Cool air drifted in.

“Should we go out there?”

⸻

Jennie groaned lightly.

“No. I refuse to be philosophical on a balcony tonight.”

⸻

Lisa immediately stood.

“I’m going.”

⸻

Jisoo followed without hesitation.

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“…I guess I’m going too.”

⸻

Jennie stared at them.

Then sighed dramatically.

“Fine.”

⸻

Five seconds later, they were all outside.

City lights stretching endlessly in front of them like a quiet reward.

⸻

No stage.

No audience.

No conference tables.

Just four women leaning against a balcony railing, letting the night finally feel like it belonged to them.

⸻

Jisoo spoke softly.

“We finished it well.”

⸻

Jennie nodded.

“We did.”

⸻

Rosé closed her eyes for a moment, blonde hair moving slightly in the wind.

“We should do this more often.”

⸻

Lisa smirked.

“Business trips?”

⸻

Rosé opened her eyes.

“Winning them.”

⸻

Silence followed.

But it wasn’t empty.

It was satisfied.

⸻

Somewhere behind them, the room stayed warm.

Somewhere ahead of them, the city kept glowing.

And for the first time that day—

nothing needed to be planned.

Only felt.
Back view of a young Viking man riding a black horse on a dirt road toward a peaceful and wealthy Viking village in the distance. The village is still far away, with large wooden Norse houses, clean streets, a harbor with a few Viking ships, and green hills behind it. Only a few villagers are visible, naturally doing their daily work—blacksmith forging, carpenter working, merchant arranging goods, women carrying baskets, children playing, and fishermen near the docks. Nobody notices the hero because he is still far from the village entrance. No overgrown bushes or vines covering the houses. The village looks clean, organized, prosperous, and calm.

Chapter 13 – The Class Where Everyone Noticed

Monday morning.

School.

The place where everyone pretended they were focused…

But really?

Everyone was watching everyone else.

Especially Jennie and Felix.

⸻

Jennie walked into class.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore an oversized black hoodie, baggy cargo pants with silver chains, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones hanging around her neck.

She sat down at her desk.

Then immediately noticed something.

Felix was sitting two seats away.

⸻

Felix looked up.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and white basketball sneakers.

They stared at each other.

One second.

Two seconds.

Then both looked away.

⸻

Han noticed immediately.

His soft brown hair was messy, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

He leaned toward Lisa.

“Something is wrong.”

Lisa smiled.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“Something is definitely wrong.”

⸻

Rosé sat behind them.

Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders. She wore an oversized lavender cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“They’re acting normal.”

Jisoo looked up.

Her long dark red hair was neatly styled, and she wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“Which means they’re not normal.”

⸻

The teacher walked in.

“Good morning, class.”

Everyone sat down.

“Today we will be doing partner work.”

The entire class immediately became interested.

Because everyone knew…

Partner work meant chaos.

⸻

The teacher looked at the list.

“Jennie and Felix.”

Silence.

The entire room turned.

Jennie slowly looked at Felix.

Felix slowly looked at Jennie.

“No.”

“Agreed.”

The teacher looked confused.

“You haven’t even started.”

⸻

Han whispered.

“This is going to be amazing.”

Lisa smiled.

“Or a disaster.”

“Both.”

⸻

They moved their desks together.

Felix looked at the assignment.

“Okay. Let’s just finish this.”

Jennie nodded.

“Finally, something we agree on.”

Felix smiled.

“Don’t get emotional.”

Jennie looked at him.

“You’re still annoying.”

“There she is.”

⸻

They started working.

For five minutes…

Everything was peaceful.

Too peaceful.

Then Felix wrote an answer.

Jennie looked at it.

“That is wrong.”

Felix looked offended.

“No, it’s not.”

“It is.”

“How do you know?”

“Because I read.”

The whole group gasped.

Han covered his mouth.

“She attacked his intelligence.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

“Okay, DJ girl.”

Jennie looked up.

“What?”

“You think because you can mix songs, you can solve everything?”

Jennie leaned closer.

“Better than you solving anything with a basketball.”

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Even Felix laughed.

Which surprised Jennie.

Usually he would fight back immediately.

Instead…

He just smiled.

⸻

The teacher walked by.

“Are you two arguing or working?”

Jennie and Felix answered together.

“Working.”

The teacher looked at their paper.

Then looked at them.

“Interesting way of working.”

⸻

During break, everyone surrounded them.

Han pointed.

“You two are different.”

Jennie frowned.

“How?”

“You actually enjoy arguing.”

Felix shrugged.

“We always argued.”

“Yes,” Lisa said.

“But now you smile while doing it.”

Jennie immediately looked away.

“No, I don’t.”

Felix smiled.

“Yes, you do.”

She turned.

“You are not helping.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

“I think the funniest part is that you both still think nobody notices.”

Jisoo nodded.

“Everyone notices.”

Hyunjin dramatically placed a hand over his heart.

“The enemies-to-friends transformation…”

Han sighed.

“It’s literally just homework.”

⸻

The bell rang.

Everyone returned to their seats.

Jennie packed her bag.

Felix looked over.

“Hey.”

“What?”

“Good job today.”

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“Was that another compliment?”

“Maybe.”

She smiled slightly.

“You’re getting weird.”

Felix laughed.

“And you’re getting nicer.”

Jennie pointed at him.

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

And as they walked out of class…

Everyone knew one thing.

Jennie and Felix were still the same.

Still competitive.

Still annoying.

Still roasting each other.

But now…

There was something else there.

Something neither of them wanted to admit yet.
A tired young witch with short silver hair and a crooked black hat works the night shift at a tiny convenience store.

Panel 1: She stands behind the register at 2:00 a.m., staring blankly at a glowing blue ghost who has placed a cup of instant noodles on the counter. The store is empty, fluorescent-lit, and rainy outside. The ghost looks nervous and searches its transparent pockets.

Panel 2: The witch sighs and points to a handwritten sign that says, “NO SOULS, CURSES, OR ANCIENT COINS.” The embarrassed ghost holds up one ancient gold coin while the noodles begin floating beside it.

Style: supernatural comedy, expressive faces, detailed modern manhwa art, cinematic lighting.

CHAPTER: “ANNOUNCEMENT DAY / THE TOUR RETURNS” (UPDATED)
⸻

The morning started like any other—

until it didn’t.

⸻

BLACKPINK were gathered in the living room.

Not for rehearsal.

Not for casual planning.

But for something bigger.

⸻

Jisoo stood first, holding a printed schedule in both hands. Her long dark hair was softly styled, and she wore a calm ivory blouse with tailored trousers.

Her expression was steady—but there was excitement underneath it.

⸻

Jennie leaned forward immediately.

“Don’t tell me…”

⸻

Jisoo nodded.

“It’s official.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

Rosé covered her mouth slightly, blonde hair falling over her shoulders as she smiled.

“…We’re going on tour?”

⸻

Jisoo smiled back.

“Yes.”

⸻

The room shifted instantly.

⸻

Jennie stood up.

“International?”

⸻

“International,” Jisoo confirmed.

⸻

Lisa hadn’t spoken yet.

⸻

Lisa sat on the edge of the sofa, staring at the schedule in Jisoo’s hand.

Her brown hair was tied loosely, casual home clothes replacing stage outfits for now.

Her expression slowly changed—from surprise… to recognition… to something softer.

⸻

“…It’s been a while,” she said quietly.

⸻

Jennie pointed at her.

“That tone means you’re already thinking about choreography.”

⸻

Lisa blinked.

“…No.”

Pause.

“…Maybe.”

⸻

Rosé laughed softly.

“That’s a yes.”

⸻

⸻

Jisoo sat down beside them.

“This tour isn’t just performances,” she said gently. “It’s a full journey again.”

⸻

Jennie smiled.

“So basically… chaos with a schedule.”

⸻

“Exactly,” Jisoo replied.

⸻

⸻

Lisa finally looked up fully.

Her eyes sharpened slightly—not tired, not overwhelmed.

Focused.

⸻

“…We’ll need to prepare everything,” she said.

⸻

Jennie grinned.

“There she is.”

⸻

Rosé nodded.

“I’ve missed that energy.”

⸻

⸻

From the hallway, two figures paused.

⸻

Ari stood slightly ahead of Noah.

She looked like a modern teenager now—about 13–14, with long dark hair tied into a loose half-braid, wearing an oversized hoodie over a school uniform skirt, phone in hand. Her expression was calm but observant, the kind of quiet maturity that came from watching more than speaking.

⸻

Beside her, Noah leaned against the doorframe with a relaxed teenage posture. Around 14–15, he wore a slightly unbuttoned school blazer over a hoodie, messy hair falling into his eyes, backpack still hanging off one shoulder like he hadn’t fully decided if he was coming or going. His expression carried that classic teen mix of boredom and curiosity.

⸻

Ari tilted her head slightly.

“…Tour means you’ll be gone a lot.”

⸻

Lisa turned toward them.

“…Yeah.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

Noah exhaled.

“So basically the house becomes quieter and more monitored.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“That sounded like a complaint disguised as analysis.”

⸻

Noah shrugged.

“I’m just stating outcomes.”

⸻

⸻

Lisa stood and walked toward them, kneeling slightly to their level.

“…We’ll still be here,” she said gently. “Just busy.”

⸻

Ari nodded once.

“I get it.”

Her tone was more grounded now—teenage understanding replacing childhood confusion.

⸻

Noah looked at her.

“…We’re fine.”

A pause.

“…Probably.”

⸻

Rosé laughed softly from behind them.

“That ‘probably’ is doing a lot of work.”

⸻

⸻

Jennie clapped once.

“Okay. Tour mindset starts today.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

“I’m excited.”

⸻

Jisoo nodded calmly.

“Then let’s prepare properly.”

⸻

Lisa stood again.

Her focus fully locked in.

“…Let’s do it right.”

⸻

⸻

And just like that—

the house shifted again.

From everyday rhythm…

to movement, schedules, stages.

⸻

And in the hallway, two teenagers watched it all unfold—

old enough now to understand what “busy” really meant…

but still young enough to feel it when things started changing again.
Early morning. A narrow Korean street, shops just opening. Minji's kiosk is small, warm-lit, slightly cluttered but alive. Steam rising from the coffee machine. She's arranging things her own way — papers stacked at an angle, snacks displayed with no obvious system. The street is quiet. This is her time.
1 panel
That's actually a good call. If you don't want him to feel like a copy of Sung Jin-Woo, avoid the black-and-purple shadow aesthetic. Since your MC uses **slime**, make the slime the focus instead of shadows.

Here's a redesigned prompt that gives him his own identity.

---

## Boss Slime King Prompt

> **A powerful young man with short, slightly messy black hair and piercing crimson-red eyes stands with perfect composure. His face is calm and unreadable, carrying the confidence of someone who has never lost a battle. He wears an elegant dark fantasy outfit with subtle emerald accents, avoiding the appearance of an assassin or shadow monarch.**
>
> **Surrounding him is an immense living slime unlike any ordinary slime. The slime is a deep obsidian black with glowing emerald veins flowing throughout its body like liquid energy. Instead of simply floating around him, it moves with intelligence, constantly changing shape into gigantic jaws, dragon heads, claws, shields, serpents, wings, and towering tendrils before melting back into a fluid form.**
>
> **The slime emits an overwhelming aura of predation. Every object that touches it—rocks, weapons, magical attacks, even light itself—is slowly dissolved and absorbed into its endless body. Small glowing particles drift upward as if reality is being consumed.**
>
> **Behind him towers an enormous slime titan formed entirely of living liquid, dozens of glowing emerald eyes opening across its body while countless mouths silently emerge and disappear. The creature appears ancient and unstoppable, existing only to protect its master.**
>
> **The ground beneath him is covered by spreading black slime that slowly consumes the battlefield. Crystals, broken weapons, and debris are partially submerged within the slime, hinting at countless previous victims. The atmosphere is silent and oppressive, making it feel impossible for anyone to approach him.**
>
> **His crimson eyes glow softly while the slime responds to his thoughts without commands, moving like a living extension of his own body. Instead of looking evil, he looks like an unstoppable king whose power has surpassed human understanding.**
>
> **Dark fantasy anime style, cinematic lighting, masterpiece, ultra detailed, dynamic composition, volumetric fog, glowing emerald energy, highly detailed liquid physics, terrifying monster design, powerful aura, fantasy battlefield, 8K, best quality.**

### Negative Prompt

> Sung Jin-Woo, shadow soldiers, purple shadows, blue aura, Solo Leveling, daggers, assassin outfit, black smoke, necromancer, low quality, blurry, cartoon, chibi, extra limbs, watermark, text, logo, bad anatomy

This makes him feel more like **the King of Living Slime** rather than a shadow monarch. His intimidation comes from an intelligent, ever-evolving slime that acts like an apex predator, giving him a distinct identity.

Shen Lang recognized them almost at a glance.They were several core actors from the Legend of Xiang Fei crew.

"Miaohan, I was planning to invite you to have a party together, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

Chu Gongze walked to Su Miaohan with a face of surprise.

"Mr.Su."

"Hello, Mr.Su."

Several other actors greeted Su Miaohan, a beautiful investor, with great respect.

"Hello everyone, are you here for a dinner party?"

Su Miaohan nodded coldly.

"Yes, the weather has been hot recently and everyone has been having a hard time filming, so I specially invite you all to come here for a little get-together."

While Chu Gongze was talking, his eyes glanced at Shen Lang from time to time.

"Miaohan, it looks like you don't have anything to eat either.Why don't you share a meal?There are so many people and it's so lively."

Before Su Miaohan could reply, Li Xiangling walked up to Shen Lang in surprise, "Shen Lang, you are here too."

Although Shen Lang did not participate in the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei", the two still often chatted about the drama on WeChat during this period.Li Xiangling also got a lot of inspiration from Shen Lang, and the characters were enhanced a lot.

"Sister Xiangling." Shen Lang smiled back.

Li Xiangling looked at the others and introduced: "Let me introduce to you, his name is Shen Lang.He almost played the role of Yongquan, but unfortunately he couldn't perform due to an accident.But despite his young age, his acting skills are definitely top-notch.”

Shen Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly, Sister Xiangling praised herself too much.

It's just that he can see that other people are dismissive of him, so he doesn't rush to show his warm face to others' cold buttocks.

"Shen Lang, I see your food hasn't been served yet.Let's have some.I happen to have something I want to talk to you about."

Li Xiangling extended an invitation to Shen Lang very affectionately.

Su Miaohan frowned slightly.Of course Li Xiangling knew that the famous heroine in the entertainment industry was not only beautiful, but also single all the time.I don't know how many people coveted her beauty.

She couldn't figure out how such a big-name star could have a relationship with Shen Lang, and Li Xiangling's attitude towards Shen Lang was a little too affectionate.

This made her feel very uncomfortable.

"this."

Shen Lang was a little embarrassed, "Your crew is gathering for dinner and bonding.It would be inappropriate for us to participate."

"Everything here is in the same circle.If you don't see it when you look up, you won't see it when you look down."

Li Xiangling said happily: "Are you not going to give me this face?"

Shen Lang smiled bitterly, consulted Gu Wanxia's opinion, and had no choice but to agree.After all, Li Xiangling was really good to him.

He later heard Liu Jia say that after his role was removed, Li Xiangling had a fight with Director Hu Chunjiang over him.

A group of people came to a luxurious private room.

When taking her seat, Su Miaohan sat in a position on the left.On her left was Chen Meng, and on her right was Liu Yuanyuan, the second female lead in the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei".

This resulted in Chu Gongze, her real boyfriend, being unable to sit next to her.

"Chu Gongze, please sit here with me."

Liu Yuanyuan reacted immediately, stood up with a smile and said: "It's all my fault for being ignorant.I originally wanted to get close to Mr.Su, but I forgot that you are Mr.Su's boyfriend.Hehe, don't be offended."

"Where, it's just a place."

Chu Gongze was very satisfied with her attitude and sat down on the seat next to Su Miaohan without hesitation.

No one else had any reaction.

Now the crew has spread the news that Chu Gongze is in love with Su Miaohan.Even the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei" was specially created for Chu Gongze, which shows how much Su Miaohan cares about her boyfriend.

Shen Lang didn't respond, he lowered his head and played with his phone silently.

But Su Miaohan immediately looked over at Shen Lang to see his reaction.Seeing his calm expression, as if the matter had nothing to do with her, she felt a little irritated for no reason.

"Mr.Su, what do you mean?"

Gu Wanxia suddenly stood up, her face covered with frost.

She was simply stunned.

As Shen Lang's wife, Su Miaohan actually has a boyfriend, and she doesn't shy away from Shen Lang at all?

This simply trampled Shen Lang's dignity into the dirt!

Is there anyone who bullies people like this?

At this moment, she felt heartbroken.No wonder Shen Lang had been unwilling to mention his fiancée.It turned out that she was the kind of woman who could do anything with her husband!

This sudden accusation made everyone's eyes focus on her in shock.

Gu Wanxia stared at Su Miaohan with stern eyes, "You are Shen Lang's wife, and you are so blatantly looking for a wild man outside, can you be worthy of him!"

"What do you think of him?Do you have any sense of shame in hooking up with wild men outside in front of him?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene exploded instantly.

What!

Su Miaohan actually got married?

Married and looking for a man outside?

And in front of my husband?

Do women from rich families spend so much time having fun?

Suddenly, everyone looked at Su Miaohan strangely.

Su Miaohan looked like the kind of cold, iceberg-type woman who was hard to get in touch with, but she didn't expect that she actually had a fiery heart.

Shen Lang raised his head in shock, first glanced at Su Miaohan, who was frowning, and then immediately said: "Sister Wan Xia, please stop talking."

He really didn't expect that Gu Wanxia would stand up for him, and he was touched and anxious at the same time.

Because he didn't want everyone to know about the contract marriage.This was what he had agreed with Su Miaohan when they signed the contract.

Gu Wanxia looked at him with a look of pity, "Shen Lang, I know you are kind-hearted, but I can't watch you being bullied like this."

"Mr.Su, I know that your family is rich, and Shen Lang is just an orphan with no money and no power, but as a woman, since she is married, she must adhere to her feminine ways.Can you tolerate your conscience when you play with his feelings like this?"

"Since you have no feelings for him, you can divorce him.With your looks and wealth, Mr.Su, you can find any man you want.Why do you bully a kind man like this!"

"I need you to give me an explanation!"

You can hear the needle drop on site.

After all, this involved Su Miaohan, the investor.They couldn't say anything, but they also despised Su Miaohan in their hearts.With a husband at home, you just go out to play and bring the man to your husband.This is outrageous.

"Miss, you have misunderstood Miaohan."

Chu Gongze's expression was not very good.Seeing that Su Miaohan's face showed no intention of speaking, he couldn't help but stand up.

This matter is not only related to Su Miaohan's reputation, but also to his own reputation.

If word spreads, I'm afraid the Internet will explode tomorrow.

He even thought about what the headlines would be tomorrow.

"Shock!Chu Gongze is actually a mistress who interferes in other people's marriages?"

"The beautiful president of the Su Group cheated on the famous actor Chu Gongze during marriage!"

"It's outrageous!The beautiful CEO actually brought a popular young man to his original wife to show off his affection!"

Once this news explodes on the Internet, it will not be blocked, but it will definitely be a devastating blow to his career!
"If you keep staring at that page without turning it, the ink is going to start migrating onto your skin," Elias said, his voice barely a whisper.

He was leaning against the mahogany bookshelves of the university library, the scent of old paper and floor wax hanging heavy in the air. The silence of the archives was absolute, save for the rhythmic, distant thumping of a radiator that sounded like a failing heart. Elias wasn't looking at the books, though; he was watching the way the dust motes danced in the narrow slivers of light cutting through the heavy velvet curtains. He shifted his weight, the gray vest he wore feeling a bit too tight across his chest, and glanced toward the table where the other man sat.
A moody, atmospheric comic book panel set inside a dimly lit bar at night. Warm amber and deep shadow lighting. A hauntingly beautiful woman — Sara — sits alone at the bar, a half-empty glass of whiskey in her hand, her expression hollow and distant, dressed elegantly but disheveled, as if the evening broke something in her. Beside her, a tall, ethereally striking man — Alexander — has just settled onto the adjacent stool, his dark coat and timeless, almost otherworldly features cutting against the smoky bar backdrop. He is turning toward her, his gaze falling on her face for the first time — and in that instant his expression shifts: eyes wide, breath caught, something ancient and shattered flickering across his face. A supernatural visual effect overlays Sara's eyes — a ghostly double exposure of another woman's face, Eliza, soft and luminous, fading like a memory returning from a thousand years ago. The ghost image is tender, heartbreaking. The bar around them feels frozen, as if time itself paused. Moody neon signs bleed color into the darkness — deep burgundy, cold blue, faint gold. Comic book art style with bold ink lines, dramatic chiaroscuro shading, cinematic panel composition, emotional storytelling, noir atmosphere, highly detailed.
